I just got it on friday, hoping to watch it soon, just waiting till I'm home alone so I can pump up the sound. 

good movie; but managed to surpass CTHD? I don't think so, but it depends on your criteria i suppose.

No regrets watching it; there were good fights, a nice story (particularly the way the first half unfolded,) and visually it was very stylish. 

thought CTHD was very overrated. A good movie it sure was, but nothing more than that.

The fight scene between zhang ziyi and michelle yeoh is another story. 

is vares based on the books?

Yup. Can't remember which book right now. Might've been a hybrid of several books. Haven't read any myself, but after seeing the movie I might try one of them. 

saw it yesterday. excellent, and certainly up there with cthd. 

When I watched I thought it wasn't too interesting apart from the beautifull visuals. 

...95% said they loved Vigil, especially for that level where you have to defend the tomb of your friend.

5% said... Who? 

this was almost a very fine film, but as it is it's fairly dodgy. The script is too weak and some of the dialogue about psychoanalysis is cringeworthy, even for a movie this old.

But, there's no denying the classy direction that's on display here. Keeps you watching despite all the flaws. 

wright bagwell, and it was CALLED Vigil, not actually made by Vigil the mapper.

Being both a comic book and buffy geek, I for one, am exited for this. (nevermind the fact most of whedons angel episodes suck ass). At least so far, his comic run has been pretty damn good. 

Of course, there's currently no script, and to the best of my knowledge no major talent has actually signed for the movie (and we know Halle Berry has little interest in returning unless she's in the spotlight).

Then piss off, Halle, no one likes you. He could be a good director i think. Oh, and GAMBIT GAMBIT GAMBIT GAMBIT GAMBIT GAMBIT GAMBIT FUCKING GAMBIT GAMBIT GODDAMN GAMBIT BASTARDS GAMBIT please thanks. 

Gambit. 

I was never a fan of Beast persay, but that might be interesting. 

I like Halle Berry. I'd like to see Psylocke. I didn't see X2 so I don't know if she was in there or not -_- 

And when are they going to make a Lobo movie? 

and while we're at the whole comic movies thing, just saw this interesting bit...

Finally, Comic Book Resources reports that "Allegedly, DC's lord of the seas "Aquaman" is getting the cinematic treatment, courtesy of producers Alan and Peter Riche and writer Ben Grant. They want this Aquaman to be a goofy screwball comedy. Their thought was, 'since he's such a stupid character let's play that up.'" He then warned me that despite his source's reliability, this is still just a rumor for now, so caveat emptor and what not".

Yet another comic -> movie destined to suck :\


oh, as for Halle Barry... she's not good looking, she has no acting skill, and really is only famous becuase she cried getting some token award and showed her tits in a few films. I'll be glad to see her gone for any film I may be interested in. 

I can prove you wrong with 2 words: Cat and Woman. Instant gold. 

...

so you're attempting a rebuttal on the grounds that she's such a shitty actor she has to play in a cheesy crapfest where she fully relies on her supposed looks? I guess she can pass for hot while she wears a mask and not much else. 

I guess she can pass for hot while she wears a mask and not much else.

she still looked ugly to me :) 

Are you gay, or blind, or both ?? Even if she looks ugly in her ridiculous costume, it remains she had a wonderful bunny, and big tits woawwhat a girl.. That's enough to see the film.. grrrrr... and furthermore if someone tells me that she's naked in the film: I'll buy it :P... 

I thought she was good in Monster's ball, probably not oscar worthy but enough to show acting ability. 

but going by feel alone she doesnt do it for me, honey. But masks and leather? Fabulous, I say! 

With masks and leather: it will turn into a sado-maso sex contest.. he he he ... 

where everybody loses :(
