The Shawshank Redemption. One of the greatest movies there is.

The first hour of Romeo is Bleeding, thanks to the weather, my sky box has gone off sad.gif

Last night we watched Return of the King, so I guess that smile.gif

The Return of the King - how refreshing to have the concluding chapter of a trilogy not disappoint smile.gif

Looking back, the Matrix trilogy just follows a natural trend it would seem;

The Godfather
The Original Star Wars trilogy
Back to the Future
Jaws (I know there was 4 but still, the last 2 were rubbish !!)

Lord of the Rings, is probably the only trilogy that got better with each movie.

Indiana Jones started well and ended well but was let down by a pish-poor middle story rolleyes.gif

I'd agree that LOTR is the most consistant trilogy, but I prefer the second Godfather film, which is a bit of an oddment, cos generally the middle film, is always the weakest. unsure.gif

Have to agree with that, although there's often an argument thrown forward in such comparisons that both Empire Strikes Back and Terminator 2 were better than the originals. I'd disagree in both examples to be honest. The Godfather 2 is the only one I can think of, although having said that, I lie, Aliens was vastly superior to both the original and subsequent sequals wink.gif

I forgot about Aliens, although I only really hated Alien 3 out of the bunch, not that struck on Resurrection either, but I enjoyed it a hell of a lot more, second time round smile.gif

I must admit, I adore the Terminator films laugh.gif , (even the obnoxious kid.)

I loved Aliens, and enjoyed Alien but it wasn't quite as good. Of the further two, neither particularly did much for me, but I really can't stand Alien3, it's right down there with Star Trek 5 rolleyes.gif

Regarding Terminator, I love the first one, it's a classic, and thoroughly enjoyed T3, but T2 bored me for large parts in the middle, it was just too long.

Going back to the stronger second movie thing, you might argue Batman Returns is better than the original Batman as well, although I'd find that too close to call myself.

Right, that's me, bedtime. See you folks tomorrow smile.gif

I always thought I was unusual in that I dont think THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK is the best of the STAR WARS films.

I actually disagree with you about T2 though - I thought it was better than the origianal, the same goes for SPIDERMAN 2 and ALIENS.

Also STAR TREK II was vastly superior to the first
one!!

It could also be argued that SUPERMAN 2 was the best of the bunch!!

Oh and to answer the question SPIDERMAN 2 was the last film I saw although hopefully I am seeing the second SHREK movie tonight.

OI leave ST5 alone!!! mad.gif

I think the original BATMAN is the best of the BATMAN movies but it is a close run thing with the second one. Michelle Pfiffer was gorgeous as the CATWOMAN, shame they didnt use her for the new movie which I am reliably informed is rubbish!!!

I've taped The Shawshank Redemption as I've never yet seen it. This weekend maybe.

Just watched Starsky & Hutch. Quite enjoyed it, too. Nice little twist at the end. biggrin.gif

I actually preferred Alien because that was edge of the seat stuff. The John Hurt scene is classic. I enjoyed Aliens but it was really an alien kick-ass movie, albeit a superior one. Didn't she get dubbed Rambolina at the time unsure.gif

The original Terminator is again a sci fi classic. T2 was good but it was really just Cameron playing with his toys. T3 I thought was the start of milking the franchise. We've had metallic man, now the Terminator is a female. What next? A killer kitten?

I actually think that Batman Returns is the better film (by a gnat's) because it has the stronger cast. Or maybe it's Michelle Pfeiffer in that catsuit wub.gif drool.gif Told you I was shallow laugh.gif

I think Alien and Aliens both work brilliantly because they tell what is basically the same story in completely different ways - one goes for the haunted house approach whilst the other is a war movie. I love 'em both, but Aliens has been my favourite movie since I saw it the day it opened right up to a couple of weeks back when I saw it for the 80-somethingth time. Only LA Confidential and LOTR have come close to displacing it smile.gif
