Apocalypse Now and Watchmen are both good movies. I respectfully disagree with the Sess.

I agree about Tolkien. I always found them hard to read. I believe a good video game movie can be made, but it has to reject what made the game good and think about what makes a movie good and in that way. Even if the source material is good, it has to be defied if the movie is to be good in it's own way. Also feel the same way with Mark Wahlberg. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised, but I won't get all bent up about possible outcomes.

Glad to see that Adam shares the same idea as me. Don't care about Wahlberg getting casted, because the movie will probably fail anyway.
