Jovian, aim higher - that movie is not that good. Other than introducing me to Dina and Denise, it was a horrible experience. -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 10:41 14
- i would say it's with Fifth Element and Matrix as the best sci-fi of the 90s -- nm - moles Feb 16, 10:42 13
  - it wouldn't be on that list if there were only ten sci-fi movies in the decade - Will Hunting Feb 16, 10:44
  - Matrix - very good. Fifth Element - sucks -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 10:43 11
    - Sweet merciful crap, you're dumb. The Fifth Element is genius. - David Feb 16, 10:47 8
      - Gotta agree with David, I must say. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 10:58
      - I gotta side with Crash. Fifth Element is the suck. Crap acting, crap writing. It has boobs, so it ain't a total loss - TWuG Feb 16, 10:52
      - I'll bite. What precisely do you consider genius about it? -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 10:50 5
        
        it's funny, it's actiony, and love is the ultimate weapon against evil in the universe - moles Feb 16, 10:52 4
        
        It's that last bit that made me cry for having wasted nearly two hours. - TWuG Feb 16, 10:56
        
        its not very funny, its not very actiony, and its plot has been used so many times, it needed to step up to be considered mediocre -- nm - crash davis Feb 16, 10:53 2

        If you don't think "Mooltipass" is funny, you are history's greatest monster. -- nm - David Feb 16, 10:54

      - Starship Troopers ruined a novel that I loved as a kid. Now if it had existed on its own, I maybe could enjoy the cheese. - crash davis Feb 16, 10:45
