Alien cubed is in no way better than either Alien or Aliens. Even Fincher himself disowned the film, and rightfully so, as it was compromised and ruined by studio interference among other factors.

Only if you're a tasteless philistine. Die Hard 2 was a gormless retread of the first, Die Hard With A Vengeance is a genuinely fantastic action movie. Nobody makes them like McTiernan.

>>70322641
>>70322589

I recently rewatched the prequels, and AOTC as far entertainment value goes (intentional or not) is better than Phantom Menace.

Phantom Menace is just so fucking sluggish and dull except for a few scenes here and there.
>>
>>70322775
>as far entertainment value goes (intentional or not)

oh I see, you have to believe that what you're watching is a joke or something because of how bad it is

yeh in that way I agree, Obi vs Fett was neat to watch either, nothing similar was made in any other Star Wars movies
>>
>>70321735

Even if it wasn't the best (and I'm partial to Raiders myself), Doom is the weakest of the three.

I don't think there's any way a trilogy can be anything but this pattern. If the second one is bad, there will be no demand for a third one and it won't get made

>>70321652
Madagascar is a series where it starts out as complete shit and gets successively better with each sequel (largely because they changed writers each time).

The third one was written by the guys behind Fantastic Mr. Fox, if you don't believe me.

What? I don't have to believe anything. I'm just going by the individual movies, it's not like the prequels are great or even good films. There are a lot of moments that are unintentionally funny/entertaining, what do you want me to do?

Ep 1 feels like there was some effort put into it.
Like he was genuinely trying to recreate whatever made the first trilogy great, but he never knew what was good about them and it fell flat.

Ep 2 and Ep 3 are cynical fuck yous put to film.

I will say that Phantom Menace seemed to have more practical effects and sets, unlike the other two where they CGI'd chairs and stuff like that.

When Lucas made TPM he hadn't directed for a few decades I believe, so it seems like when he made that he was operating in largely the same way he had with his previous films, whereas by the second one he had realized that you can green- and/or bluescreen literally everything.

Transformers. None of them are particularly good, but the second one was Godawful, and the third was more watchable.
>>
>>70323564
There was also massive backlash from the fans (who saw it like 15 times because its Star Wars).

It was a critical and financial success, but everyone hated it.

as someone who has never watched any of the tv series, are any of the Star Trek films worth watching?

Financial, yes. Critical, no. Did you really buy into the meme that before the RLM review no one hated The Phantom Menace?
>>
>>70323633
Only the new ones, the rest require you to have watched the tv series
>>
>>70323704
No, fans hated it but critics loved it.
They all reviewed it with kid gloves.

This. Think of any popular horror franchise.

>>70323633
4 is the most popular and watchable even if you don't like Trek. Wrath of Khan is the fan favorite.

>>70323717
Not true.
>>
>>70323704
It was widely praised after it first came out.
>>
>>70323747
I agree that a lot of the critics reviewed with kid gloves, as you say, but outright loved? Not really. The rotten rt score is mostly based on reviews that came out during the time film was first released.
>>
>>70321652
Exorcist 3 is generally regarded as the best of the series. And I would agree
>>
>>70323797
I swear to god they should make a fucking Snopes page about this.

Andrew Sarris gave it a negative review; Wall Street Journal gave it a negative review; David Edelstein from Slate panned it (''Those poor souls who've been camping out in front of theaters for six weeks: Who can blame them for saying, "To hell with the critics, we know it will be great!"?); Village Voice panned it; Time Out panned it; and so on and so forth.

Which is not to say there weren't positive reviews by critics, but what you're saying is just factually incorrect.

I could have sworn it was a critical success. I was 12 at the time and heard nothing but praise from critics on TV.

I thought it was ok but liked the OT more.
I fell for the toy meme though. Had TPM game on PS1 too.

>>70326198
i had it on PC, i liked it but apparently everyone else didn't. it was clunky but it was star wars so i was ok with it. i tried playing it recently and it was pretty terrible (overhead camera, etc)
