[spoiler]At the end of this movie, one of his bros offers him immortality but he turns it down. Then Mary Todd says "Come on, we're are late for the theater."[/spoiler]
He's only trying to be what following how his dreams make you wanna be, man!

The film never overcomes its ridiculous premise.
Added to that a leaden plot (found my attention wandering on several occassions) and a climax that appeared cribbed from the movie Priest and you have a failure.

Why didn't they just film this? Would have got better reviews. I'm probably watch it eventually.

Anyway the film is doomed cos the vampires won. Look at Wall Street.
The Justice department has a good re-education programme-it's called five to ten in the cubes.

Sequels going to be pretty good too Jimmy Carter - The Alien Assassin

This film looks terrible - the concept would probably wear thin as a spoof trailer, let alone a full film.

Going tonight. Looks fun. Not expecting any more than the trailer indicates.
I've enjoyed the other stuff I've seen from the director has done so willing to give it a shot. It was that or Men in Black 3 TBH.

Reviews aren't too great but the few bad ones I checked seem more intent on showing you how intelligent and cultured the reviewer thinks he is rather than telling you if the movie is a laugh or not... so fuck 'em.

Oh, and FDR American Badass looks fucking AWESOME! As soon as its out I'm buying it and watching it as god intended... at 2am with a gang of mates and a shit load of beer.

Honest to say, it does looks like it got best Axe actions?

Well that was a lot of fun. With such a silly premise they actually take it all pretty seriously. Not TOO much obviously, it is an action adventure movie, but there's no winking at the camera. Action is all staged really well, theres a lot of cool fight scenes and they really made the most of the 3D. Very cool 3D effect on the vampire's eyes which I really liked.

Good cast too, but then I'm a big fan of Rufus Sewell and it's even got Alan Tudyk.  And of course Miss Winstead is as adorable as ever.

If you thought the trailer was balls you'll think the same of the movie, but if you thought it looked like a fun flick, it is.

Oh, and if any mods read this.
While it's not THE most surprising ending to a movie ever Mr Godpleton above, in what quite frankly is a staggeringly dickish move, has spoiled it.
Can this be put in a spoiler or just fucking deleted? Cheers.

I think you should stop that right there.
You have made this moronic claim before and when questioned about it, disappeared off the thread for a few days hoping people would forget.
If you want to peddle this shit, by all means do it on the political thread, but not here.

Just an afterthought Rich, you're not related to Carter at all are ya, seem to be a tad touchy on the subject, but sorry again, not for what I wrote (I stand by every barbed word of it), but wrong thread to write it on, my bad, carry on (regardless)...

Dis I not say to take this to the political thread? Is that too difficult for you to grasp?

From the clips I've seen it dose look fun. And lets face it it's a Tim Burton... what's not to love?
