It’s not a bad flick, honestly. There are some decent laughs in there and it works fine as a comedy, but it just didn't hit me quite like the first one did. I think I went into this sequel with slightly higher expectations than I should have.
dustyfalcon122 said:So, on Frank Moore4's recommendation, I downloaded the movie and hit play. About seven and a half minutes in, I shut the whole thing off, wiped it from my hard drive, and emptied the recycle bin. Done. Don't even think about watching this one—not even if someone’s got a gun to your head!
If we’re talking about a video game, then honestly, if you're going through all that trouble to delete it, you might as well go in and scrub the registry too. Just to be safe. 😁
Frank Moore4 said:Well, alright then... 😁 Personally, I think Scorpion King 2 and In the Name of the King are way worse. 😬
In the Name of the King was actually a decent enough flick—just a solid little action romp. But man, I don't know about SK3... that one just felt like a total drag. It definitely didn't help anything. 😁
Donna Garcia7 said:I’d have to agree, even though if I recall correctly, Moneyball leaked pretty quickly... 🙂
It really just depends on the movie, you know? Some of them leak online as a grainy DVD rip before they even hit theaters here in the States, while others take months just to make an appearance on the big screen. It’s all over the place. We'll see about this one once some decent quality actually hits the scene.
steelfox3 said:Word on the street is that during the press tour in India, Tom Cruise basically bought his way into everyone's good graces. We're talking three to five bucks per person just to manufacture that hype. 🤣
It's true. In New York City, he actually paid fans to wait for him at the airport just so he'd have a massive reception on the red carpet. It’s pretty wild—he ended up being the butt of the joke across all of Hollywood once people found out. Still, you can't deny the guy is a powerhouse actor, even if he does have some seriously bizarre ideas sometimes.
You can find it on the torrent sites, but honestly, it’s probably not worth your while for another few weeks since everything out there right now is just a cam version.
I don't know, personally I'm totally fine with it. Honestly, I’d much rather shell out an extra $20 to see a movie in IMAX at my local AMC Theatres (regardless of whether it’s the "real" deal or not) because I can actually feel the difference. It's not like those extra $5.00 are going to break the bank, especially since I only hit up IMAX or the theater in general maybe two or three times a year max. But hey, at the end of the day, it's all about what you like.
The trailer looks pretty promising; I’m really hoping the actual movie lives up to the hype. It honestly seems way better than Mission: Impossible III.
Jerry Ross74 said:You've got plenty of ways to go about this depending on what you're burning. If you're dealing with an ISO or an IMG file, just grab the "Write image file to disc" option. Once that window pops up, look at the top to find the specific file you want to burn, then check the "Destination" at the bottom to pick which CD-ROM drive you're using (especially if you've got more than one plugged into your rig). Just pop the disc in, pick your burning speed—and like my buddy mentioned, if it's video content, sticking to 8X is usually the way to go—then hit "Write" and let it do its thing.
Actually, 8x is a bit too fast for DVD burning, and I wouldn't recommend it for ISO files either. Keep it to 4x max.
By the way, @Psycho—you also have Alcohol 120 and Nero 7 in your toolkit, which are both perfect for burning image/ISO files.
Man, this horror flick is awesome. They nailed the vampire design—super creepy stuff, especially with all that darkness in Antarctica. What’s the deal with that "Frostbite" movie you mentioned? I checked IMDb and it looks like it’s got a way lower rating than this one.
By the way, the 30 Days of Night franchise actually has a sequel... it's called 30 Days of Night: Dark Days
Man, he’s basically spitting fire and molten bullets... alright then 😁 I've got a really strong gut feeling that this one is going to blow the first movie out of the water.
btw, has anyone tracked down the soundtrack from the trailer? There's some rock or metal track playing that totally gives off those "Twisted Metal" video game vibes.
Kate Ramos51 said:In movies, the 4th dimension is basically scent. They give you these little scent cards that release aromas matching what's happening on screen.
Yeah, they mentioned those scent cards at AMC Theatres, but honestly, that isn't really true 4D. To me, the 4th dimension isn't just some "aromascope" gimmick; it's about those moving seats—the vibrations and jolts that actually make you feel like you're in the middle of an explosion, a train wreck, or a massive car crash. That's how you actually get immersed.
It feels more like they’re just spraying a bit of cheap perfume into the theater and calling it a day while keeping ticket prices super low $12. Which, let's be real, is an unusually low price if they're actually trying to claim it's a "4D" experience.
Lisa Ross65 said:It’s coming to 4D here, too—AMC Theatres just announced it on their Facebook page.
Oh, really? ...Hmm, I wonder if AMC Theatres even has the gear for 4D screenings? There are only a handful of theaters worldwide that can pull off 4D, so I’m pretty skeptical they’ll have it here. 3D? Sure, maybe. But this other stuff... I doubt it.
