Title: Top 25 Action movies
Post by: Tynstar on July 03, 2007, 03:51:45 PM
I thought this list was pretty good. One major flaw is no Killer. But it does have some other nice ones.

Not too shabby, Killer definitely is better than Hard Boiled though.

Yeah that was the only really bad part.

The Road Warrior is one of my favorite movies, nice to see it get some respect. On the other hand their Sci-fi list sucks ass, no Stargate or Babylon 5?

eh. i think transporter 2, crank, 4 brothers, and a few others could have made it to that top 25. eh. i guess it depends on taste. i think CRANK was non-stop action. it blew me away. but still like i said things like this depend on taste. there were about 4 or 5 titles i thought were weak. especially spider-man 2. yuck.

and i second the notion. KILLER should have been on there.
they should take off spider-man 2 and replace it with killer (but on better rating).

Anything with Jason Statham goes down the bad egg chute at the Wonka plant for me. The man is continuously in cliche kung fu dance crap made to attract as many ten-year-olds as possible. The Transporter was terrible. The part where he gets oiled up and ballet fights like 8 guys -can it possibly get more homoerotic?

Die Hard, now that's 100% pvr3 pwn4ge. The whole franchise is good too. When does that happen? Never.

I have never been able to decide which I like better, Hard Boiled or The Killer. Hard Boiled is grittier and it doesn't have those infinitely retarded lounge music scenes to fast-forward through. The premise of The Killer is better. He kills people to pay for his blind girlfriend's new corneas. Oh, and he blinded her. Oh, and she doesn't know who he is. It never gets old.

I love that Robocop is on the list. That one always gets overlooked -one of my favorite movies.
