I’ll never even consider watching ‘Buffy’ without Joss Whedon at the head. Megan Fox could be naked for 2 hours during the movie and I wouldn’t support it without Whedon.

Well, I did something really stupid yesterday….I went to see Land of the Lost. Yes, that’s right, I’m a total and complete idiot. The movie is horrible. I agree with 790, it will not make it’s money back even with DvDs.

About Commando and that scene; if you look at Sully’s foot as Matrix is dangling him, you can see the cord around his ankle. Just another reason to laugh at the film. But for all its cheesiness, I did enjoy it. Hey, it’s Arny. the Rock had his chance to step into Arny’s shoes in Walking Tall (Arny had a cameo where it was like handing over the reins) but has decided to do family stuff instead. Too bad; I thought he would have made a great action star.

Wow, I knew The Hangover was a great comedy but 2 weeks as number 1. Let’s just hope the sequel is at least as good.

I must have missed something (which is quite possible because, you know, I am an idiot ), because I couldn’t find Moon anywhere in DC. I thought it was released last Friday?

Commando rules!!! You might think its silly but thats the one film that kicked off the macho one-man-army craze and it still rules. It was before First Blood: Rambo 2.
Sure it had silly lines, but it knew when to take itself seriously and when not to. It was a fun ride and also destroys everything set in it’s path.
This remake, didn’t they basically do a remake with those John Cena movies? And isn’t there a Russian remake as well?

Just leave this gem alone…Dwayne, Disney is paying your bills. Sorry but you cannot join Col. Matrix’ unit.

Commando is a damn classic. I’m hoping this remake talk is all BS that goes nowhere.

@ greenknight333 & Matt Keith
That part with Sully was my favorite of that movie too!

As for another Exorcist type movie? I’ll watch it. The Exorcist is pretty much the only movie that’s scary in my opinion. Some others come close, but to this day, anytime I watch the Exorcist I find myself getting goosebumps and paranoid that some demon is going to get me.

Thats my favorite scene in the whole movie….where he dropped Sully.

Murphy will need a lot of epinephrine and a hell of a lot more than 200 biphasic joules to restart his career..

I though Commando was great but I was 15 and did not have great taste in movies..hence thinking it was great..I have only seen it once since it’s heyday and it seems very cliched now..

For instance:

Matrix: You’re a funny man, Sully, I like you. That’s why I’m going to kill you last.

Later in the film as he dangles Sully over the edge of a cliff

Matrix: Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last?

Sully: That’s right, Matrix. You did.

Matrix: I lied.

Then falls Sully…

Need I say more

Who’d have thought that the Hangover would be the first movie to repeat on top of the box office especially considering the tent poles we have seen so far this summer. I think WB underestimated the Sunday drop for Hangover and Pixar overestimated UP’s drop..so the final numbers may be a little closer than that and it would not be suprising for me to see UP come out on top…

Technically hollywod is SUPPOSED to remake bad films .
So,I wish them luck with Commando.

Megan Fox is the female Jonny Depp, name a to be cast popular role amongst movie fans and the knee jerk reaction is to stutter out their name.

Really now though the current box office line up is filled with with big hitters that are running out of steam or just small fish, everyone is waiting for a certain Michael Bay movie to take centre stage.

Remake Commando, wow that movie sucked eggs. How’s remaking it with Johnson going to change anything.
All these lame remakes,,, sigh,,,.
^
???, Does Eddie play duel roles in Imagine That?
Someone told me he also plays the little girl in that movie. Maybe I heard wrong. 6mil, won’t even cover the craft service or all the barriers they have to put around Eddies trailer’s so nobody can make eye contact with him.
I think the R rated Gumby movie is his last hope for a comeback… They can hire the same dorks that wrote Land of the Lost. And btw, that movie won’t make 120 mil on dvd. That was a huge bomb for Universal. Grope that Farrell.

Arnold had the Terminator to cement his bad@$$ status..Johnson had The Rundown which I enjoyed but was no Terminator.

Yeah Ken like there are no horny 25 or 35 year olds who flock to see movies with Jolie and Fox..

By: Ken J

Ken J — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 19:39:56 +0000

@kinoda, they want her in 2 for the same reason they put her in 1, so all of the horny 15 year-olds would flock to see it. They’ll find a way to get her in the movie, either her or Megan Fox. Those two are the go-to tramps to draw in the horny guys crowd.

About Commando, I don’t think Dwayne Johnson can be as badass as Arnold was back in those days.

Haha!!! Yeah, you’re totally right on that one Kinoda!

Megan Fox as Buffy….thats another reason for me not to see that movie. I think remaking “Commando” is a bad idea, IMO Arnold made that film.
