"Why so SERIOUS?!"

It's basically a "redo" of the first Hulk movie, with better script writing and a more realistic looking Hulk. I saw a preview of the new hulk on youtube. Edward Norton from Fight Club is going to play Banner this time. I can't wait for that one.

I get bored in I am Legend, but love the watching Happy Feet, The WaterHorse, or Spiderman with the grandkids. The best movie I have seen recently is Gone Baby Gone. Good acting from all involved and a great story line.
If I never see another Tom Cruise movie, I will be eternally gratefull. Movies are just not as good as they were 25 yrs ago. There is a lot more bang and special effects, but to me the acting is not near as good.
The best actors today are Morgan Freeman, NIcolson(sometimes) Jodi Foster, Sean Penn, Will Smith and Tom Hanks but they are not near as good as the old NIcholson, Pacino, Henry Fonda, Gregory Peck, or Jimmy Stewart. Those actors were just revered. Now today we have to put up with the Adam Sandlers, Ben Aflect, and Tom Cruises of the world. That is like comparing the 90s Cowboys to the Bucs of the 70s. Big difference.
I do wish good movies were more prevalent than bad movies but with the emphasis that more is better, the quality for the most part sucks....

There are plenty of bad ones now, but the older the movies, the worst the acting seems to me, for the most part. Sandler can act when not doing his comedy routine (though comedy takes a lot of talent to be good at), Affleck can be good in the right role and with the right direction. Most of the older actors basically have the same performances in every movie they do anymore. My personal favorite is Jason Lee, though he's really only had 2 movies that really show off what he can do, the best being Chasing Amy.
And I guess I should add Zack and Miri Make a Porno to the top of my movies to see in 2008.
