STOP MAKING SHITTY MOVIES

http://www.canustayalive.com/
(Note the "u" in the url)

This is basically a movie about a certain video game that people are getting into. And if you die in the game, you die the same way you did in the game in real life. Sounds pretty shitty right? Well... it is.

Take note of the wondorus GameX-Cube-Station-Box controller.

Of course it's stupid. Any person with one little bit of intelligence would BURN THE GAME if they knew the "secret" of it.

Bah those people, they think thats what we are into so they try to make money off of it. BEEN DONE, flops all over the place.

They have lost touch of everythign in the movie industry, V for Vendetta was awsome, but far from becoming a classic.

Indy 4 will blow because they will "Update" it. They need to use the same 80's Camera's/Equipment/Costume Designers. It has to have that look or its just crap.

I agree. There is something to be said for the realistic approach of "old school" special effects.

Damn, it would suck if you were playing that game against someone with wallhacks. Some bullet would just come out of nowhere and nail you in the head randomly Whats That .

But anyway, yeah that movie looks about as bad as the House of the Dead movie.

It sounds like something that is going to play off the stupid notion that videogames affect peoples' perceptions of reality. It's also a tired concept that has been done already ("Making a Monster" among others), and is going to suck as badly as every other time it's been done. Just based on those points alone, I refuse to see it.

That and the whole "horror" genre has, in recent years, relied entirely on cheap, predictable surprises and loads of gore to substitute for real suspense and fear. I've yet to see a modern horror movie where I can't predict the next "big scare" at least a minute before it actually happens. I get more of a thrill out of playing scary games than from watching cheezy horror flicks.

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.

I have to agree. I recently went to go see "When A Stranger Calls" with my significant other, and I didn't get nearly as big a kick out of it as she did. I would take a scary game over P.O.S. movies any day. Especially if they're well done like the orginal Half-Life. That game scared the crap out of me when I first started playing. Even when I tried it with godmode on...

AVP a crappy movie? Personally I have to disagree with you on that one.

AVP was halfway crappy. I'm a fan of the games, so it touched a soft spot with me, but as far as movie quality goes? Terrible. Little/No story, Bullshit ending...

The point is, most newer movies suck, except for Sin City! In Love

Remind me, which one was "Uplink"? I got a free copy of Counter-Strike with an ATI video card. When I updated my "Steam" thingy in order to be able to play online, it gave me half-life as well, and a crapload of mods I never played.

Uplink is the name of demo of Half Life 1. Just look on the internet for Half Life 1 demo and you will find it.

First half of AVP was pretty interesting, but after that, it was terrible. Using Alien head as a shield? Using slow motion matrix-like effects for face huging? Using humans to fight alonside Predators? WTF? Those are really stupid ideas.

Frankie Muniz...I hope he dies first.

Note that the director and first producer are making their debuts with this movie, the second director premiered with "Charlie's Angles," and the photography director only has experience with commercials and music videos. Not to mention that the movie's made by Disney. That all should give you an accurate picture of how good the movie will be.
