Favoties. - Terminator series (I actually like Salvation, Terminator 3 is my least favorite of the series.) Salvation is the only Terminator movie & probably the only movie i've almost fell asleep watching It was only 2 Hours (not quite) long and honestly when I came out the Cinema I legit thought I'd been In there for a lot longer than that

Just backed up a page. Emma Stone is so cute. Hate 1. Atlantic Rim- still better than Pacific Rim but terrible 2. A Good Day to Die Hard- didn't love up to the kick-ass series 3. Predators (Newest one)- didn't love up to the kick-ass series 4. Alien vs Predator- very boring for such a good concept 5. Jarheads- was a good movie but too damn boring I thought Predators was great! As far as straightforward machismo goes, it was the best film in the series since the original.

I honestly found the second one more entertaining than this one. For me, it's all about keeping me entertained. That, and a good, compelling story. When I saw Danny Trejo die first, I lost it.

Just backed up a page. Emma Stone is so cute. I thought Predators was great! As far as straightforward machismo goes, it was the best film in the series since the original. I agree with Mike on this one. I think it was the best execution of the premise after the first film. They went back to the core concept- that of a bunch of unknown things killing off the protagonists one by one as they go from hunter to hunted- and with the exception of Topher Grace's character and the Predator "dog" things, both of which I could have done without, I was thoroughly entertained. I honestly found the second one more entertaining than this one. For me, it's all about keeping me entertained. That, and a good, compelling story. When I saw Danny Trejo die first, I lost it. I admit, I'm one of the few who has always enjoyed the second movie. But Schwarzenegger's absence really does hurt the film, Danny Glover just wasn't really a proper substitute in my opinion. The setting was also odd- taking place in the city just didn't feel right and the script put an odd emphasis on gang warfare and voodoo cults. Still had some good moments though, I enjoyed pretty much the entire second half (the subway scene onward). The AvP series doesn't count, is absolute garbage, and the less said about it the better. In fact I need to revise my list to place the first AvP in the "hate" section. EDIT: I like Trejo as well. In the commentary the director says that when they were looking for actors Danny Trejo called them up and said "Hey guys, I heard that you're looking for someone like Danny Trejo. Hey guys, I look just like Danny Trejo!" LOL

You guys are all naming some pretty terrible films...
And yet still, none of them can touch Godzilla vs King Kong.
