SpinStopper: Another Rush Hour 3 greenlit post in less than 5 minutes? Wow ;)

I think Drew is getting commission for plugging RH3

Screw all you guys, I'm gonna see it. Loved the first two, and reviews have pretty much said if you like the first two you'll dig this one.

you are taking a martial arts/comedy movie too serious

A coworker said that she saw it at a preview Tuesday and said that it was actually pretty enjoyable.

And I'll say it: I enjoyed both of the previous ones just fine, and took them for what they are: good for that rainy/don't-feel-like-getting-off-the-sofa/hungover/sick kind of day. Seriously, who wants to watch Saving Private Ryan when they feel like crap?

w/o this, is it really worth it?

I'm gonna go see Stardust instead.

The first two were pretty cool. fark the haters.

im amused that tucker gets first billing before jackie chan. what a joke.

Ratner is farking hack. I hope he gets aids and dies.

I'm pretty certain I'm the only person on the planet that liked him in Fifth Element.

Blen Blaffleck?

People asking why Tucker is making so much cash need only look at how well these horrid movies have done on DVD. Every mouth-breathing ham-n-egger has these things and thinks they're the pinnacle of action flicks.

Loved Chris Tucker in the Fifth Element.

I have a feeling that this movie will be soo bad .... that I am surprised that I was not in it.

TheCharmerUnderMe: So, this went from Main to Showbiz?

Did your contract state that it had to be on the main page, but didn't specify for how long?

Clever.

I have a feeling that if the thread were getting more positive comments it would still be on the main page.

MEGAMERICAN:
Get ready for everyone on Fark who hated the first two movies to post here in 3...2...1...

The first two were fun, this one sucks.

the question becomes which ad executive failed to see that this site isn't exactly their target audience for this movie

Then by all means, let's see if we can keep it off there.

Here's my August 2007 Suck List:

1) Lingering and painful death
2) Subprime mortgage meltdown panic
3) YearlyKos
4) Rush Hour 3
5) Dunkin' Donuts skimping on the chocolate filling

Chris Tucker's continued existence is an insult to every living thing on earth.

Monkey's Knuckle: Chris Tucker's continued existence is an insult to every living thing on earth.

We need to round up him, Carrot Top, and Andy Dick and put them out of our misery.

PC LOAD LETTER: Cette film est une pile de merde est Chis Tucker est une douche.

Hey, uh, PC? I think you just said the film was a battery(like duracell) of poo and that Chris Tucker was a shower...

There is only one new movie I want to see Chris Tucker in.

It will involve Ice Cube, a Ghetto in LA, a drug dealer named Big Worm, and lots of pot smoking.

Does Johnny Drama still play the bus driver?

Bunch of farking French Geeks...

I want me a taco dammit.

Hey mods, why don't you just delete everyone's posts, then? I believe we are all in agreement as to the undeniable suckage of this movie....

Pretty stinking rotten thing to do to censor someone like that. And yeah, I've heard the spiel about how it's your website and you're allowed to censor other peoples' stuff but it doesn't make the action any less dicksome.

Goldsfool: Hey mods, why don't you just delete everyone's posts, then? I believe we are all in agreement as to the undeniable suckage of this movie....

Some people actually do want to see it, so I don't think we're all in agreement. How about you stop being such a whiny pussy about it and actually say something meaningful?

PC LOAD LETTER: Cette film est une pile de merde est Chis Tucker est une douche.

I followed you until you called Tucker a shower...;) But I agree he is a douche (at least in this one and I haven't even seen it)

AlanSmithee: Ca va etre un esti d'bon film, bande de niaiseux.

Whoa la. C'impossible, ce que tu dit avec ta bouche (new window).



/'stie

squishydrew

say something meaningful about the movie?

I can't perform alchemy. You're fooling yourself if you think anything in this thread is "meaningful".


Now it's your turn to ask me why the hell I'm in here in the first place.

Then it will be my turn to tell you I don't know, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Then we'll be done.

I like Jackie Chan. I saw him on some interview show plugging this garbage and she asked him, "Is this movie any good?"

[It was ah, Regis and that other blonde broad, asking].

And Jackie Chan said, "I don't know." Then he did 14 back flips and punched her in the face.

/JK about that last part.

w/o this, is it really worth it?

The worst part is that she and Jackie didn't even get to fight. Lame.

Man has this place really gone downhill that far?
I'm glad to see they're trying their hardest to make this place the last bastion of suck on the internet.

It was funny. Lowbrow, not hard to follow the jokes, 90% slapstick, didn't have to think through the movie at all.

For that, I love it.

/It's a summer shoot 'em up with laughs, folks
//Not bloody Romeo and Julliete use Hairspray in Chichago

AkaranD

Yes, please continue not thinking, Mr. Cattle Man.

/That squishy thing behind your forehead?
//Just squishy stuff.
///Move along,
////nothing to see here.

Goldsfool: AkaranD

Don't be so hard on him. It's a dirty job, and I'm sure AkaranD isn't getting paid much for it, but this movie sure isn't going to pimp itself.

/yes Virginia, people do get paid to talk stuff up on teh intarwebs

I wasn't paid to say anything. I'd like to be, but I'm not.


ALL I'm saying is that it's a movie with stupid jokes, decent lines, some amusing fights here and there. Is it going to win an oscar? No. Is it going to win any kind of award? I doubt it. Was it simple, sensless, mindless fun for an hour and a half? Yes. From the very start of the movie till the very end of the movie, it was an amusement.

So, I'll say it again. It's a moderate summer shoot 'em up with more laughs than the other summer shooter - Die Hard - but less explosions and fewer bodies. It was entertainment, it was amusing, it was more or less slightly dirty fun.

If you look at it expecting the next OMG THIS MOVIE RCOSK !!oneone!1! or "Dear Editor: I think that Chris Tucker's acting in this movie was simply marvelous," then you're not going to think much of it... nor should you even THINK you're going to think much of it.


/People like the latter are the reasons why movies such as The Royal Tennenbaums and Chichago are popular.
//If I want to think I'll turn on the news.
///If I want to be entertained I'll watch a movie. Catch the difference.

Rush Hour Three was just plain BORING. Nowhere as near as fun as the previous two movies. The plot is pretty much non-existent and unrealistic, even for a Rush Hour movie. The worst part is that Jackie Chan's fight scenes in the movie are just plain boring.

Essentially, this movie was just one big payday for Ratner, Tucker and Chan and it shows; their combined salaries ate up at least $50 million of the $140 million dollar movie.

I saw it tonight. Barely anyone in the theater. There's almost no action to this. The writing was sloppy. I saw the "plot twist" within the first 5 minutes. Wow was this bad.

Corbin?...Corbin, ma man....?

Chris Tucker is a screaming, unfunny stereotype. No farking way in hell will I see Rush Hour 3.

/Except for The Fifth Element...but that's not his movie.
