I don't think he's 'bad', but to me 'Terminator' is far and away better than anything else James Cameron's made.

Even though I agree with the second part of your post, I still have to do this. I'm sorry, but you just wouldn't quit with that fucking macro.

This iRiff will only be on sale for another few hours. Get it while it's cheap!

Aliens will be miffed at this news, to say the least.

...haha.  :)

I'm very partial to Aliens, but I do happen to like T1/T2 & True Lies very much as well. But Aliens...oh man...it's the greatest.

id probably pick aliens too but tahts probably a rub off on how much i love alien (far more than aliens) so terminator really is probably his best cause its his idea and story and everything.

Doctor Who?

Yeah everything is done right in Terminator is done right.  No matter how many time I see it it is still scary i think that and Aliens are his only good movies.

Pi!  No, wait... Epsilon!  Damn, I'm just not getting this macro thing right. 

Anyway, I thought that other than Gerard Butler, Joel Schumacher's Phantom Of The Opera was pretty good.

I didn't even know that was Joel (I rarely remember credits from movies I either saw years ago or never saw ;)). Man... Phone Booth and Phantom? I might have to actually grudgingly give that little fuckstick some respect. Thanks a lot, dalty, damnit. :P

Schumacher occasionally makes a half-decent movie, but make no mistake about it, he's a terrible director.

All of his decent movies were accidents.

Tripe

And when he has a decent one on his hands he screws it up in the end.

I would have thought that with all the time you have living in your Grandmother's basement masturbating while munching on Rice Krispie squares and chugging cases of Yoo-Hoo, you would have the time to come up with something better than a douchebag tattoo joke.

Are you dissing Yoo-Hoo?  If so, I don't think that YoohooRiffer will appreciate that.   :P

Action Batch:  Woah, let's all mellow out and rap about this.

Tripe

Where has he got to incidentally, not seen him for weeks.

Doctor Who?

I have to say I loved every minute of Phonebooth it realy felt like a Hitchcock style thriller,I was really shocked to see Schumacher's name in the credits.

I mean i didn't see any Neon in it!

You can't have a Schumacher film with out neon.

V for Vendetta was a niche film....I really didn't see a whole lot of good stuff in that one....The two Matrix sequels blew, Speed Racer was complete shit, and Bound was just OK. 

Issac, the fact that you tried to tell me that Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla was a good movie, disqualifies you from receiving my attention as someone to take seriously about what you think is good or bad cinema.

So, you're really going through with bashing me for having the opinion that a dopey low-budget '50s movie is funny? Why don't we save some time and tattoo the word "douchebag" on your head?

Is that the best you can do?  I would have thought that with all the time you have living in your Grandmother's basement masturbating while munching on Rice Krispie squares and chugging cases of Yoo-Hoo, you would have the time to come up with something better than a douchebag tattoo joke.  Maybe the Issac Macro thing is really getting to you.  Or maybe you just can't put down your copy of Self-Fisting for Dummies long enough to focus on an intelligent post.  Who knows.

Someone really needs to loosen the straps on this guy's straitjacket.

We should be an even match then.  You have been talking out of your ass ever since you have joined this forum.
