Did you like the new police story?

I found it good

I honestly haven't seen any past 3. It's been like a decade or so since I've seen a Jackie Chan vehicle that I liked, though, so maybe I need to check 'em out.

There are 5 Police Story movies now, right?

I watched the Avengers. it was good. wasn't good like Thor but it was alright.

typical action movie story line.

best part about it for me was as unsurprisingly I guess Thor. honourable mention to bruce banner. I felt like Samuel L Jackson did fairly well but it sucks that he's basically making all his characters like Samuel L Jackson now instead of the character. oh well. good movie. considering I haven't seen half the superhero movies that supplied the roster for this movie I have no idea how it compares to each hereos debut.

I think the avengers was slightly better than thor.. though captain america was annoying in that movie, iron man was awesome.

Re: Trilogies.

What about the Dollars trilogy? The first three(two) Alien films. Ehhhhhhmmmmmmm...? The original Swedish Girl With the Dragon Tattoo films? I've only seen the first one, thought it not too shabby. And there was these Russian films Nightwatch, Daywatch, (has there been a third?), that I remember catching.

Remember that Sight & Sound critics poll from a few weeks ago, where Vertigo beat out Citizen Kane for the #1 spot?

Here's the director's top 100 poll results. The top 10 are below:

1. Tokyo Story (1953, Ozu)
2= 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968, Kubrick)
2= Citizen Kane (1941, Welles)
4. 8 1/2 (1963, Fellini)
5. Taxi Driver (1976, Scorcese)
6. Apocalypse Nwow (1979, Coppola)
7= Vertigo (1958, Hitchcock)
8= The Godfather (1972, Coppola)
9. Mirror (1974, Tarkovsky)
10. Bicycle Thieves (1948, de Sica)

The top ten is a lot more well-rounded than the critics version, I think. (even though I abhor 8 1/2 and think that Mirror pales in comparison to Stalker/Solaris/Rublev)

You can also search for the critic's/director's voting ballots at the above link as well. For example, this is what Quentin Tarantino voted for.

Hmm interesting, Apocalypse now and taxi driver above The Godfather...

See I was willing to give Affleck a chance, see what he would've done but this is just a pure reason to be concerned about the movie.
