    What happened to Battle Angel? I guess it's on the back burner like everything else he does these days.

    alright, i'll give you the whitehouse scene, but i still hate that movie more than i hate armageddon.

    Independence Day is better than Armageddon only because it has one of the most memorable shot ever with the explosion of the white house. I'm sure Armageddon had a good scene but the best scene i could think from that movie is when the astronauts are listing the things they want for saving the world.

  6. Err

    nah, dont get me wrong, armageddon is pretty bad, but i could think of some worse movies.
    as far as strictly hollywood big-budget movies go i would say independence day was worse than armageddon.

    Armageddon is the worst movie ever made. The movie even got a f*cking Razzie award.

    Could this be about the Avatar sequel, as mentioned on that thread?

    Armageddon was a pretty great sort-of-sci-fi epic.

    Lol Zany. Jack Dawsons revenge? Haha.

    And I looked at the writer of the script. He wrote Armageddon (fun film) AVP-R, and Shaft... not my pick for a "sci-fi epic" writer but oh well.

    Good one J.A., and as for this, Cameron needs to get over his ego. He makes entertaining films, not great life-changing ones like he thinks he does.

    I just realized that film news was slotted under the "film news" tab on the homepage. Wow, I'm an idiot. What have I missed? ;)

    Event movie, huh? Well, that's obvious....

    Titanic 2: Jack's Revenge.
    Young and boyish Jack Dawson, preserved in a block of ice for over two hundred years, returns with a vengeance, seeking blood, Kate Winslet, and their bastard child, John Connor.

    Sounds like a plan, Mr. Cameron.

    Not much info here, but nobody has more experience with big Sci-Fi films that Cameron.

    Sounds interesting, despite a chronic lack of info. Hmm, I've been away from here for a few months, and Movie Web get the decorators in. The site almost looks respectable now.

    Wait, is that the movie where it's like, a group of teens all with these random superman-esque powers???

    And I agree, in personal opinion, I didn't like Titanic... even if it did win awards, I thought it was about 4 hours of boringness,
    just like with the LotR trilogy, personally, I didn't like them, I respect the movies, I just didn't enjoy them.

    What he needs to do is makeup for that sh*tty movie, Titanic.

    He's not coming back to Terminator, so everyone can stop asking.

    I read somewhere that it's an original story about a group of aliens that band together to save Earth...or something like that.

    I really wish he'd quit the bullsh*t and get on with fixing the Terminator movies, considering that he's the one that made them legendary in the first place.

  21. Jokers_Wild_X

    I mean thoughts coming to mind,
    Terminator: 5
    Avatar 2
    Halo
    Halo Knockoff movie
    Independence Day 2+3???
    I mean really, wtf?

    Hmm... What else is new?
    And wtf does Event Film mean?

    I can't wait for Avatar to bomb. So that this guy can shut his mouth and stop saying that he's changing films forever. This guy is a f*cking piece of sh*t.

    Or is that just Cameron's way of saying his movie will be the best thing in ages...well, since Avatar anyway lmao Assuming Avatar IS the best thing in ages, as Cameron undoubtedly believes it to be.

    I wonder what they mean by "event" film.

    Something people are already aware of? A pre-existing property, like, as Tronticon said, Halo?
