    face-palm-mt some of it was funny though
    On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt
  1. No it was funny throughout. A glimpse at what could've been...

    I heard that was the version the studio wanted to release, but Cameron apparently is not a fan of Star Wars so the studio had to drop the Darth Vader subplot, and erase the Tie Fighter battle CGI from the footage. Damn I was so looking forward to Tie-Tanic. tongue

    So you saw it already? Well excuse me while I wait for passing judgment until I've seen it. rolleyes


    No, actually i have a bad feeling about this film. Nothing else. biggrin

    And let me state my fave Cameron films, in the order I like em best, though I love them all. Except his first one maybe, but then I don't recall I've ever seen it.

    Aliens: My favourite film ever, I've seen it a huge amount of times and every time I'm as excited as the first time. Mrs. Weaver is the true action heroine.
    Terminator 2: totally brilliant action and loveable characters in an apocalyptic story, with Arnie in his best role.
    Titanic: seriously I cannot find any fault with this doom laden romantic story, the entire sinking is just one the best filmed and edited sequences I've ever seen).
    The Abyss: much adored, great Silvestri score, some truly nailbiting moments and for me at least a wonderful ending.
    The Terminator: less viewed than part 2, but this is where the legend began and the whole concept is gripping and masterfully shot.
    True Lies: this is totally fun, just Cameron wanting to make a lighter film (only in tone, not in the technical department). The big action sequence at the end remains a true thrill ride.

    And behind those are his two documentaries which I wouldn't even categorize with his other films, but they're pretty good for what they are.

    Ghosts of the Abyss
    Aliens of the Deep


    Fully Agreed. beer

    I was quoting Sunil who is already saying the movie will be mediocre. He must have been at a private screening then.


    Exactly, i was dreaming that i went to private screening. biggrin James Cameron was begging me, "please don't tell out your opinions before the original release", but i said, " I am sorry, i have to save the people's money". Then my mom woke me up and realized all that was my dream. DAMN GOOD DREAM! biggrin

    I have Aliens Special Edition DVD, in that two versions are there, one is theatrical and Extended version. I really like extended version, because it has more horror and action scenes. I love this Edition. Actually, i expected this same thing from Titanic DVD release, unfortunately, no extended versions. Disappointing!!

    The extended cut is the only way to watch Aliens. Much more badass than the threatrical cut.

    It's the same with T2.

    The Abyss is maybe the only one where I prefer the theatrical version. But it's cool to see the added scenes and how they make the movie different.

    Oh yeah! i have totally forgotten about The Abyss DVD, i have that too. But the thing, i don't have theatrical version, only extended version. However, i am quite happy with extended version. Its quite cool. This movie is my all time favorite. I don't know how many times i have seen this. So, just prior to release of Avatar, i decided to see all of his movies in a week. wink

    Unfortunately, i don't have extended version of T2. sad

  6. A question: how is it you watch films? are they dubbed or original language? You could always import it, like I've done. I watch the original version all the time.

    I always watch original versions. I don't like to watch in dubbed versions. It just irritates me.

    I think we've talked again in the past about this, in another thread, but i couldn't agree with you more! Dubbing must be one of the stupidest things the modern man has ever thought of doing, seriously.

    I don't get your point. That's what i am trying to say. What is there to disagree with me?

    I'd have killed myself years ago if I had been born as a german, since they dub everything. To miss out on Eddie Murphy's voice as Donkey, "Jim Carrey" as Ace ventura or Arnie saying "I'll be back" in "Terminator", is just tragic. These people aren't just famous because of the way they look, but because of the way they sound and deliver their lines. To have a second rate voice-actor who wasn't part of the movie production, and who lacks the unique charm of the movie stars, means that one is missing out of one of the most important elements of the whole movie experience.

    And we have one of the best dubbing industries in the world. Still, sometimes, it´s unbearable, especially since there are no longer four or five months between US and German releases. We are part of the World Release dates now, and since a lot of movies are finished just prior before the release, you can imagine how much time they have to dub that thing. That considered, they are doing a great job. It´s TV dubbing that gets ugly sometimes. You wouldn´t believe what they have done to Battlestar Galactica.

    Tell me about it. As a native of a dutch (north) and french (south) speaking country I can safely say the language issue has always been one of the most talked about subjects in politics / society / other domains. The fact Brussels is now for 90 % french speaking is an indication of where we're going in the future. The french speaking side likes to watch dubbed versions too, whereas with us it's only for the kid films (though original language is also available).
