dude in my opinion all those movies sucked.  big time.  

have you ever seen tora! tora! tora!?  now there's a movie about pearl harbour.  

and as for coyote ugly, c'mon now.  
gone in 60 secs -  sucked - but not as bad as armageddon.  i don't even know where to start disembowling that movie. that has to be the topic of another thread.  

just because the general public will eat up whatever holllywood and and a multimillion dollar advertising campaign will shit out at them, is no reason to stop striving to create anything better.  

anyway i'm getting off topic,  to sum up, jerey bruckheimer   used to make decent action films, but now you have to drink away half of your brain cells to enjoy what he craps out at you.

I'm amazed at how close-minded people are.

"Disney sucks."

"Jerry Bruckheimer sucks."

Who cares. It's still a good movie, a great movie. Wake up and stop letting mass culture brain wash you. I admit I do the same thing a lot, but if people say something is good, I at least give it a chance.

If someone could point out something wrong with the "movie" and not who made it or something else completely unrelated to the quality of the movie then maybe I could deal with it.

I honestly don't understand how someone could see this movie and just shrug it off.

Hollywood does produce such crap anymore. It was nice to be blown away for a change.

actually, i know something wrong with the movie.

SPOILER ALERT


Spoiler
In the scene near the beginning, our favorite Captain has just saved the girl from drowning.  He is cuffed and then uses them against the girl to save his life against her throat.  He moves up the platform that they are near and swings around for a bit.  Then he is able to finally stop swining and hooks his chains from his cuffs around the rope, yet he is not yet uncuffed on either wrist so as far as I saw, which this happens really fast, its not possible from the way he gets off the rope

Yes, its petty, but I hope someone can prove me wrong.

Quoteit was a pretty good movie tho

I don't think all of that was directed at you. However, outside of the line you quoted the rest of your original post was fairly negative and at least gave me the impression that you just kind of shrugged it off....

I also didn't say that the person responsible for the movie had no affect on its outcome. It should just have no affect on your decision to see it or like it. I agree that the movies you listed are crap. I also think this is one of the best movies I've seen come out of hollywood in a very long time.

It's just that since I started this thread a few people have been talking about Bruckheimer and Disney and not really the movie.

eh,

Surely that's a joke. It's a joke isn't it?
