The best news I have heard in ages! I can't wait :)
The Rcok was good, Con Air was mildly diverting. But the rest of his films can rot in the bowels of movie crapness for all I care.
Don't even get me started on Pearl harbour.
Action wise and for cheap thrills I prefer Jerry Bruckheimer, Michael Bay and Michael Mann films. Aside from those (and the odd John Woo Western film) I can;t think of any others that are really worth watching. Certainly not in the way which you can sit and enjoy films like The Rock and Con Air.
Oh and dubbed films are tosh, subtitles is the only way to watch Asian cinema.
Devil May Cry is dull hack and slash toss. Morrowind is the word 'Geek' personified in a game. Bruckheimer films are patriotic, pieces of a big budget bollards. I've seen films made on 1/100th of the budget of toss like Armageddon, that are 1000 times better. It annoys me that Hollywood funds crap like that, when lesser studios could do with the cash to make films that are actually worth something.
Black Hawk Down is by no means a terrible film. But standing next to other war films like Full metal Jacket, there's only one clear winner, and it certainly doesn't have pretty boy Josh Harnett in it.
