The rest of those you named obviously did and still doing something right because they keep getting roles in movies, in some cases big movies. So saying they don't belong doesn't quite add up right now. Sounds like poor little MCT didn't get that autograph from his favorite rapper so now he taking it all out on their acting.

I also notice how you failed to mention LL Cool J, Ice Cube, 2Pac, Eminem, Mos Def, Mark Wahlberg(oh yeah that's right). Some of these rappers(Nelly, Raekwon, Treach) you mentioned barely got any screen time or were in horrible films to begin with or were in one, two movies at the most. Nice reach there. Like I said GMAFB.

I didn't know we had two year olds that were allowed to post. Sounds like something my 2 year old niece would say. Na na boo boo. You can't be serious with this.

you right he wrong

its now down to 14%

[Blu-Buddha]

At 14% positive ratings - all the negative reviews I'm reading are dredging up the concerns I've had for a year now. However, all those reviewers have shitty opinions imo. There's only three reviewers I trust: A.O. Scott, Michael Phillips and Kenneth Turan though I don't always agree with them.

Of course I'm going to watch it and I'll probably enjoy it - but I enjoyed the last Hulk and Hellboy movies. Not that great but good enough... it'll just be sad if it's not much better than T3.

CW?

Id still prefer The Sarah Conner Chronicles over the steaming pile of turd this is gonna turn out to be...
sorry if I offend anyone.

[STARSCREAM]

I am so pumped to see this! I don't care what the critics say or the reviews. They all hated Watchmen which I liked and they all hated Wolverine which I liked.

Chronicles is a piece of crap show that never should've been made. Sarah was dead at the time the show takes place. Hence, the whole storyline doesn't exist. The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Smallville are two shows I despise because they take the source material and run it into the grave.

Things to do before seeing this movie:
1) leave your brain, heart & ballz at home.
2) sneak alcohol in & play a drinking game whenever the movie doesn't make any sense
3) pretend wolverine origins never existed & this movie is the only reason your still sane.

I noticed the same thing, the only explanation I could come up with is this is the beginning of the take over. They aren't prepared and don't really know what's coming. As the war progresses cities are blown up and turned to ruble, and they soon learn to move at night. I can't remember but in T1 how long had the war been going on for when we got a few flashforwards?
Also, Cameron could have chosen night time because of budget like you stated $6 mill is not much of a budget and night is the best way to cover up cheap sets and special effects.
I was getting more of a Transformers feel from the trailers, but I will hold Judgement day for when I see the film.
Also I believe Wolverine had a 100% on Rotten going into it's opening week, it will change.

Dave my man seems you've made up your mind that you're gonna dread Salvation! Change is good

I saw it last night. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be...well I didn't think it was gonna be bad, I just wasn't very excited about it. It was very different than the first 3 which can or can not do in its favor. The acting was great and there were some great action scenes...
It just seems like it was a little too dark and a little not fun enough. I REALLY liked the Sam Worthington storyline with Marcus. It was more interesting than John Connor's story.

I recommend ou see it and make up your own mind about it rather than going by what others say.

Thats not a fair comparison. Mr. Ed can speak English.
