    Wasn't a fan of the Irish actor before that movie, but I thought he was fantatastic. played the role brilliantly.

    Yeah, quality shit. Think you can find my review of the movie somewhere on this thread - it's all about cutting the bad guys off mid-sentence by shooting them in the head. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />[/quote]<br />

    I thought it was a decent enough flick and Neeson was undoubtedly extremely farkin cool but it was ruined a bit by having him dispatch numerous bad guys with barely a scratch a la Jean Claude Van Damme or Steven Seagal.

    It was like the old school Arnie or JCVD films, but with better acting.

    Its a movie title starring JCVD as himself and he basically takes the piss out of himself for it's entirety. Its apparently very good.<br />

    He's now got a series on one of the reality channels, where he's a cop. And they just follow him around. Pretty sure it's him. Haven't watched it, but seen it on the guide when I'm flicking through the channels.

    That's Seagal. JCVD would spend all his time in the evidence room.

    Anyone else think that the characters in Avatar look far too much like those from the Jak and Daxter video games?

    Best description I've read of Avatar so far: "It's the Smurfs' Christmas Special, and we're Gargamel."

    Just watched Avatar in 3D . Amazing , must see movie. I reckon it will make James Cameron even more squillions. It has a basic plot (just like Star wars, Superman etc) but is so well done ,only the most cynical (cue to fern reviewers) will diss it,

    I was skeptical after seeing the preview but saw a more in-depth show on it last night and it does look pretty amazing. What I'm wondering about is it if humans are able to to develop the technology to travel such vast distances and turn a guy into an alien how come they don't have the tech to make him walk again?

    I saw it and was expecting good things due to the reviews. Personally, I found it boring and just couldn't get it into it. I still found there were a few good scenes though.

    Fuck, that was exactly what I was thinking. And if they can warp through space how come they have planetery energy problems? Can't turn that part of my brain off now.

    They do , you will have to watch the movie. My suggestion definitely watch the 3D version.
