Spoiler for DISCUSSION / SPOLIERS:
Lots of sword action and lots of subtitles. John Cusack was an odd choice, but it works. Adrien Brody absolutely nailed it! Jackie Chan did great, despite his age.



^ I think this is the best film in the trilogy.

I haven't seen it so this is purely based on box office turn out but I remember when we had this at my theater. I sent it back to the distributor after a week because 16 people came all week to see it. What a bomb.

It's definitely better than #2. And it has more action than #1 because we don't have to waste half the movie getting Lee & Tucker together.

Lightbulb Zombieland [2009]



Spoiler for SPOILERS / DISCUSSION:
Emma Stone is sexy as fuck. I can't decide if I like her better as a blonde or a redhead. Jesse Eisenberg is great. Very pedantic and neurotic. Who doesn't love Woody Harrelson? Abigail Breslin holds her own amongst the older cast. I've seen this movie probably a dozen times. I wish they would have worked Amber Heard more into the story, as she is gorgeaous as all hell. The Bill Murray cameo is very funny.

It's not Shaun of the Dead but it'll be a shame if it gets buried under a mountain of drek once the zombie craze is forgotten.

You work at a movie theater? I thought that you worked at a record store?



Spoiler for DISCUSSION / SPOILERS:
They made Jackie Chan look old as fuck in this movie. This was more of a drama and less of an action film than most of Jackie's movies. Less kung-fu and more explosions. He used his mind to defeat his foes by making explosives and setting traps, more so than fighting them one-on-one. It's hard to believe that he is 64! He is definitely one of my favorite actors. I have been on a Jackie Chan kick [no pun intended] as of late, watching Rush Hour 1, 2 & 3, Dragon Blade and Shanghai Knights. We really need a Jackie Chan appreciation thread.
