Merlin Orr Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Pretty good movie in most all regards... I think it was as good as any of them. Good villain and a couple of pretty girls to give it what it needed on the eye candy angle... IMO - 8 of 10 and it would have been a 9 but for the jet fighter scene...

Keith Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie. I wasn't overly impressed by the last two Die Hards. "You must be running out of bad guys by now!" He's back with some more good one liners. Although I do agree that the jet fighter scene was a bit much.

mpeltier Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I agree about the jet fighter scene. I am very forgiving about creative license in the movies, but, well I dont want to give it away. It was good but the original still beats it. Still use the line "welcome to the party pal". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Di Vita Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I actually liked this one the most out of the series. Justin Long was hilarious as well. I was pretty surprised to hear all the crazy scenes with the cars were done without CGI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Keen Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 CGI truely is better than reality any more! Honestly I don't know which way is more expensive now days. If they do it all the 'hard way' they spend many more hours setting up shots, and much more money on props, cars, and explosives! If they do it all the easy way and use CGI ...... they pay through the nose for all that *technology* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Edited to add That DareDevil sure is fast! It's a gift.

Nemo Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Okay. Ahem. Why pray tell are there two Capitol Ds on his costume? Doctor Daredevil? Or was he a lawyer? Oh, I know... Daredevil Duane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Okay. Ahem. Why pray tell are there two Capitol Ds on his costume? Actually the original red-and-yellow costume, designed by Bill Everett and Jack Kirby, had but a single D on the chest. When Wally Wood did a redesign into the classic all-red version, he also changed the chest symbol to the more stylized interlocking double-D. Regardless, the character's name is still spelled Daredevil. (More than you ever wanted to know, right?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Nah, I like the trivia. Several months ago I went into my local post office to pick up some stamps and mail a couple of letters. I noticed they had super hero stamps so I bought a sheet. The postal clerk asked me who my favorite was and I replied, In brightest dayIn darkest night No evil shall escape my sight. Let those who worship evils might Beware the Power Green Lanterns Light! They of course looked at me like I was nuts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Thomas Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Since you like trivia, it's (possibly) worth noting that the original Green Lantern oath, belonging to Alan Scott, went: "...and I shall shed my light over dark evil. For the dark things cannot stand the light, The light of the Green Lantern!" In the mid-1940s, this was revised to the classic: "In brightest day, in blackest night No evil shall escape my sight Let those who worship evil's might Beware my power, Green Lantern's light!" When Hal Jordan appeared, this oath was given to him, and the fact that it once belonged to Alan Scott is ignored. Today "...and I shall shed my light over dark evil," etc. is the oath Alan swears, while "In brightest day," etc. belongs to Hal. Gotta love that trivia.

tomfturner Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 All this time I thought CGI stood for Common Gateway Interface (which ... by the way ... it does). However, Hollywood has used it for Computer Generated Imagery for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
