Brian is full of lies!
 
Underworld 2 is full of awesome!

As far as I'm concerned they may has well have titled it "Underworld 2: Wait Until It's on HBO."

That's how I watch alot of these movies aimed for gamers, including most of the Ewe boll flicks. Accidental "HBO". Accidental being that the cable company goofs and gives us HBO on our basic cable package, not on our digital cable package, and we simply unhook the box and neglect to inform them of it.

My mother and brother seemed to like the first one, and I may be subjected to the second today. I'll give you my personal review if possible.

"lycans." They're trying to be all technical and shit. And the first really didn't have anything new to the genre in it. I mean seriously, the biggest thing they had was "OHMYGOD! We can make a Vamp/Lycan! He'll be able to defeat all the bad vampires!" And then he actually fights the big bad vampire, and gets his ass kicked, and it's up to the heroine to save the day.

I really didn't like that guys character at all. If I wanted to see a movie that featured a vampire and a werewolf fighting, I'd watch Van Helsing again.

*shudder*

Van Helsing over Underworld? Ick. No thank you.

I'm with Starky and Shiney on this one; Underworld 2 kicked ass. I thought it was way better than the first one. The plot was simple enough without being stupid, you could tell it benefitted from a higher FX budget without going too overboard on the CGI, and it included the best use of a helicopter in a film since the first Mission: Impossible movie. Plus, you got to see Bill Nighy's character again! And the guy who played Corvinus rocked.

For reference, I was talking out of my ass on that entire post.

I was hoping people wouldn't have taken you seriously...

RickZarber 01-21-2006 05:43 PM

Fine. My sarcasm-meter was off. Now that I read it again, I can see that. Guess I was just imposing my own opinion on those words.

But I stand by my earlier statements. It was way better than any other monster movie I've seen in the theaters in a long time.

shiney 01-21-2006 05:53 PM

I wasn't taking a dig at you, just...yeah. It was all bullshit.

RickZarber 01-21-2006 06:16 PM

No, I didn't think you were. I was just embarrassed because I misinterpreted something so obviously off the cuff.

Dj_StarChild 01-21-2006 06:32 PM

It's ok, Rick. I will stand by you.

I can't BELIEVE someone compared it to Uwe Boll...
Have you SEEN house of the dead?!
It's TERRIBLE! It's not even the funny kind of terrible. It's the kind of movie that teenage boys rent instead of porn, because it has minimal gore and a whole pile of naked ladies and no plot.

Underworld 2 on the other hand has ONE gratuitous sex scene (though a portentious one), plenty of plot, cool effects, and Kate Beckinsale in a vynil jumpsuit. Fuck yes.

Further more, I practically filled my pants with a gallon of semen after seeing the trailer for Silent Hill. Sweet leaping jesus, if I hear one more negative comment about Underworld, I'm going to empty that gallon of semen over the antagonist's head.*

*at no point did I ejaculate in the movie theater, and at no point will I cover anyone with semen who is not consensually engaging in intimate relations with me.
