Quote:Doom and Resident Evil both come to mind.
RE was terrible. Doom looks dumb, though a friend of mine (whose opinions on movies I don't always agree with) raved about it.
I saw Ghost Rider recently (it was terrible), but something funny happened during the previews. One started out with a quick camera composition of a metropolitan city (Las Vegas, I think), and I scoffed, thinking it was a movie in the same vein of XXX and those awful Fast and the Furious movies. Then, it pans out to show that it's a television screen, and proceeds to show a composition shot of land that's been ravaged by a dust bowl. After about 20 seconds of this, my friends and I were all interested. The camera pans out to show the earth covered with dust... then zooms way, way, in, all the way to Milla Jovovich's face. We all groaned. It was a preview for the next RE movie.
Milla Jovovich is sexy, but she should consider doing a decent movie for once. My friend/room-mate claims that Ultraviolet is literally the worst movie he's ever seen. Maybe she just doesn't have the acting prowess. Oh well.
