Movies that never got a fair shake.

"A man might be thought wealthy if someone were to draw the story of his deeds, that they may be remembered."

Pure Awesome.

Have you read the book? It's pretty good actually with some cool details that are different from the movie.

[FartinMowler]

I will claim the fact that I have sung the praise of the Thirteenth Warrior before it was "hip".

[kahljorn]

you know what's a good movie and i don't know ab out fair shakes or whatever but it's called, "Primer" and it's probably not very popular but it's what i would consider a "realistic depiction" of time travel.

Yep. I actually looked that guy up on imdb a few weeks ago when I caught a glimpse of the movie on tv. That guy was the definition of badass when I first saw the movie. We need more viking action heroes

[JohnBoy]

Ernest Borgnine is the original Viking action hero. ODIN!!!!!!!

Speaking of which, if anyone tries to defend Pathfinder in this thread, I will gouge out one of their kneecaps with a rusty spoon.

[FartinMowler]

I'm about to go to bed and watch one of these movies

[kahljorn]

so did anybody watch Primer yet

[Grislygus]

Fuck yes. Watched that about a year back. WAY too smart for me.

I never understood all the hate for the 13th Warrior either. I remember when I went to go see it in the theater and coming out thinking that it fucking kicked ass, and then I found out that this friend of mine was telling people that it sucked and not to waste your time and money, and it was then that I knew I must fell him in mortal combat.

Shaun of the Dead. Anyone I ask if they like it say they hate it. I loved it.

[Grislygus]

Shaun of the Dead is absolutely adored. You just live in a dangerous, crime-infested, culturally deficient rapetown, if I remember correctly.

[zeldasbiggestfan]

You did.

I need to get the hell out of here.

[Sam]

You really do.

Need.

To get the hell out of here.

13th Warrior was sweet, but I never understood why one of the Vikings was wearing armour from a conquistador other than for pure awesome.

That big dude yelling "ODIN" to hear echos from shore

[ArrowX]

Lone Wolf McQuade. No I'm not one of those giant Chuck Norris Fans but I'll be god damned if that movie isn't entertaining.

Also DragonHeart.

I completely agree. Fantastic crime movie with an equally good soundtrack

Fuck the rest of the human race. I liked Walker.

I've mentioned this is another thread before but event horizon totally didn't get a fair shake

Relic, fun monster flick from the 90's that got friggin thrashed but I love it. I'm pretty sure the Korean flick HOST stole the monsters design from Relic as well.

[Fathom Zero]

I can't quite read what you said through the small print on my PSP, but In The Mouth of Madness is a good'un.

[ArrowX]

Falling Down was a fucking awesome movie but most people don't remember it much less pass around the word about how fucking awesome it is. Easily one of Michael Douglas's best performances.

[J. Tithonus Pednaud]

I second that...I remember expecting nothing of it when I walked into the theater and being impressed.

I really liked Crash (1995), and that didn't really get a fair shake. Though I like twisted films. Kissed, about necrophilia, was another film no one saw due to the subject matter, but it was a really great and moving film.

A couple other movies include Strange Days, and Gattaca.

I just saw Zathura today, that was a fun throw away film...

[Fathom Zero]

The Thirteenth Floor I saw today on FX is a good one and it reminded me of another, eXistenZ.
