I don't get all the hate for Rocky 5...
It's because Tommy Gunn was an annoying douchebag.

I figured I'd go a little more in-depth with my review of the first season of Prison Break:
The series starts with several fairly mediocre episodes. I'm glad I decided to continue watching as starting about episode 4 the show really kicks off. I enjoyed the balance between Michael inside Fox River versus Veronica in the outside world trying to clear Lincoln's name. The conspiracy story grows a little far-fetched and tiring after a while, but it's still good television. Also the fact that the entire first season is the build up to the escape makes the finale much more intense then having the inmates escape, say midway through the season.
One thing I feel I must point out as a high point is the actor Robert Knepper, who portrays inmate Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell. I'd go so far as to say he is the best actor on the show. He nails the character and perfectly delivers the creepy lines and twisted personality. You know an actor is good when he can make a character who is a murderer, rapist, and pedophile likeable.
Low Points: Pilot, Cell Test
High Points: Riots, Drills, and the Devil, Tweener, And Then There Were 7, Go .
9/10
Are you serious? I still live in the 80s man. Robocop however, is an old movie! Most of my favorite movies, music, and TV shows are from the 80s or older. Being old doesn't make it bad, but a movie being cheesy in the 80s isn't the same as a movie being cheesy today. Also, you are 15 and I'm almost 23, so don't lecture me on "today's generation."
Cowboys & Aliens- 9/10
Oh man. A sci-fi western. I loved it. Daniel Craig was a badass in it. And lots of explosions.
And Olivia Wilde. :3
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate | Name: Yami G | HR: 2+
Contagion - 8/10
It was a good movie, and don't get me wrong, I love me some Matt Damon, but the ending left you with quite a few questions. I almost felt like they left out enough to make a sequel (maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but still).
Just recently started Heroes for the first time. It's pretty good so far. Looking forward to seeing Ray Park and Robert Knepper in Season 4.
Just rented Star Wars IV... uh I mean I (The Prequel Trillogy doesnt count or so I've heard). It's a remastered DVD version. Not a slaughtered Blu Ray one. A reviw shall be here soon...
Cheeseyness in a movie doesnt bother me if I can understand what it's aiming at and not purposely being cheesey for irony sake. And due to it's age I can forgive it for most of it. I tend to review based on it's at the time worth, not the 'oh it's crap for nowaday' standard like a lot of reviewers.
Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (2008 DVD Remaster) 8/10
I swear this movie is following me. First the ending was redone for the ending of the latest My Little Pony epiosde (pretty much scene for scene), my news feed on FaceBook being spammed with all the leaked edits from the Blu-Ray edition, half the kids at college wearing the Addidas/SW clothing line, a teacher had about 15 LEGO StormTroopers on his desk at one point, seeing the soundtrack for sale on LP, my friend buying a Yoda doll, hearing an accordian player do the theme in the middle of town, then seeing the DVD on the shelf at college for loan. Too much stuff in such a short time. I had to loan it!
Anyway. The thing I liked most was how it opted for an emphasis on story, not action. (But there was still a lot of the latter!) I can't say much about the effects seeing as I watched the Digitally Remastered version so most of the original effects were gone. Some bits slipped past, like how Luke's Lightsabre was green sometimes and blue the other and R2's walking changed from the original wavering about to the fluid rolling he has now (but only in corner of the eye shots really) but I can see why it was so highly praised at its time and it still hold up today! I now can see how horrible the Blu Ray edits are. I just wish more movies were like this! My only gripe is I heard Luke as the Joker for some of it as I read 'Mark Hamill' on the back but it somehow added to it in a way!
