Let's play a game! I call it "How much will that new movie UltraViolet suck?"

I'm thinking... less than Electra, more than Underworld:Evolution.

Any bets?

    I say it'll suck more than <insert name of favored brand of vacuum cleaner> but less than <your mom>.

    You've debased the "mom" joke, by making it back into an actual insult. You should be ashamed of such degeneration.

    I'm really hoping that it won't suck, since Equilibrium (by the same writer/director) was awesome. The trailers certainly aren't very promising, though.

    There was also a british TV series by the same name that was supposed to be pretty good, but apparently the movie doesn't have anything to do with it other than the name and the fact that they're both about vampires.

    I bet it will suck a lot.

    I bet it will suck because UV radiation destroys the dna of baby Jesus on the molecular level, making him sick with all kinds of cancer, including leukemia =\

    Leukemia is sad. It's also a little bit funny because it has the letter 'k' whcih is a funny letter, but it is mainly sad.

    UltraViolet is about vampires? And here I was just thinking it was a non-vampiric hot-girl-weilds-swords-and-guns-thus-making-super-nerdy-guys-hyphen-sweat-in-their-pants-hyphen film. Man, that changes everything!

    Well, I think it's a kind of vampires-that-aren't-really-vampires thing, like how 28 Days Later had zombies-that-aren't-really-zombies. Except that 28 Days Later was pretty good (it had the Doctor in it!), and Ultraviolet looks like it's going to suck.

    ive decided they took aeon flux, and added longer hair and a sword, and called it a new movie
  • edited February 2006
    That sounds fairly accurate.
  • edited February 2006
    I think it'll suck a lot more than Son of the Mask but a bit less than Elektra, because no movie could suck more.
  • edited February 2006
    I never saw Son of the Mask, but it looked like it sucked inmensely.

    Do you think Evanescence will contiribute to the soundtrack?




    If so, the suckiness automatically goes up 5 points.

    There's no way it can suck more than Napoleon Dynamite.
  • edited February 2006
    BLASPHEMY!
  • edited February 2006
    That it can't suck more than Napoleon Dynamite, or that he said Napoleon Dynamite sucked?

    You need to be clearer with your interjections!
  • edited February 2006
    I figured that might get someone's attention. The meaning was that nothing could possibly be worse than Napoleon Dynamite. Sorry for being unclear.

    No, I did not like Napoleon Dynamite. I'm not sure why, as I normally love stupid movies.
  • edited February 2006
    Yes. That Napoleon sure does love to suck 'em.

    napolean dynamite did have a few good scenes, but its blatently obviousthat they spent a very small portion of their $400,000 budget on writing a good script
  • edited February 2006
    Blatently obvious?
  • edited February 2006
    Well, in their defense, I'd like to say that words don't necessarily have to cost anything.


    Free speech and all.

    It'll suck more than Doom the movie, but less than a prostitute who likes to say "Oh".

    On a scale of BloodRayne to Aeon Flux, I’d have to place UltraViolet right about where Underworld: Evolution sits. How’s THAT for a rating scale?
    I can't even wrap my head around that

    I really enjoyed Ultraviolet. Elektra and the second Underworld were BOTH not-as-good, in my opinion.

    The preview for it, however, sucked dingleberries.

    And yes, it's sort of a vampires-that-aren't-really-vampires thing. They're "hemophages" and they're really badass, some are sensitive to light, there's a blood element. But no feeding or mysticism or full moons. Plot was a bit confusing because I kept thinking I had it figured out because it ACTED like it was going to be obvious. But kinda wasn't. But it was good.

    At least, I think so.
  • edited March 2006
    Cool. Might see it one of these days, then. The trailers for Equilibrium kinda sucked, too, but the movie was good. I guess Wimmer's just cursed with eternally bad trailers.
  • edited March 2006
    I'm going to suggest to anyone going to see Ultraviolet to go to Night Watch instead, 'cause the vampires have better accents and there's a ridiculously adorable butcher's son. It may or may not be a better film.

    It can't be worse than Underworld. For those of you who haven't seen it, here is my rundown of the movie.

    no, you have to make a panel with the vampire naked

    Not to mention all the hybrids.

    "I'm a hybrid!"
    "No, I'm the hybrid!"
    "Oh, yeah? Well, I drank the blood of the original immortal, so now I guess I'm the ULTIMATE hybrid!!!!111!!11!!!one!!"

    "Dude, this isn't Dragonball Z."
    "Oops."
