RocknRolla

Post by POOPERSCOOPER »

It's Guy Ritchies new movie with Gerard Butler and some other people that I don't know the name of off hand. It's basically like his other movies where there is a lot of shit going on and the story is based around something simple and entertaining I guess. Overall I was expecting something better and as entertaining as Lock Stock and Snatch. The movie was okay but kind of fell short of expectations though I didn't learn that it was a Guy Ritchie film till like a few days before it was released.

I think one of the problems was that the movie was so overloaded with characters that you didn't get enough time to flesh out some of the characters. Either way it had some good scenes in it so you might want to see it.

I also wonder if Megatron and GImpmask talk like they do in a guy ritchie film?

I've heard bad things about this one. Apparently, the only scene worth watching is the dance one.

everytime i hear "rocknrolla" i think of Mad Max. It probably overestimates the movie with a positive bias

Yeah, when I saw the preview I also had this flashback about this fellow with glasses and a dead possum on his head, who tries to catch a sharpened metal boomerang with his bare hand. What a jew. Said jew gave this over the top introduction to the group of pigfuckers living around that oil kajigger, introducing Lord Humungus, Ayatollah of RockNRolla! Ruler of the Wasteland!

Why are all the villains in the Mad Max movies obviously gay? Not that I say that all fags are evil, what they of course are as we all already know, but this movie may confuse those not as enlightened as us.

I am also very happy that they never made Mad Max 4, as recent 4th parts of movies and those to come have proven to us. I am shitting myself with yellow mucus right now as I speak, because as we all know they're tinkering on Jurassic Park 4.

The story:

Malcolm or Grant or some other smartass travels to Site B for some reason. His girlfriend, a lawyer, some bunch of fags with guns and cool cargo pants and some cunts (lawyers?) slowing everybody down are also somewhere on the island. Throw in a couple of kids and we have a typical Jurassic Park scenario.
Of course we need a main Dinosaur to fuck shit up. After the bunch of Dinosaurs in JP 1 turned out to be not enough, we found out that Site B deals with prehistoric biodiversity like Max Hardcore with teenage sluts, so we're facing at least 100 new previously unseen species of highly fucking evolved carnivores.
A lot of people get eaten in gruesome ways.
More people get almost eaten.
Something funny happens and it involves the children.
Some big ass dinosaur smashes vehicles because that's what all dinosaurs were born to do. Destorying cars.

Image

Finally a number of people fitting in the same helicopter survives and flies away and they still don't bomb the fuck out of the island for good because like they don't even fucking know why, maybe for a JP5, but who knows.

They could also go in the direction of:

JP vs. Predator

JP vs. Jason

Megatron totally does, for sure.

And Guy Ritchies is now just Madonna's appendix so don't get excited. Yeah a shame, Snatch was great.

Guy Ritchie and Madonna broke off I think.

Madonna is hot anyway.

Lol, ...well rock and rolla looks interesting. Kind of reminds me of "Crank" with those paused clip credits display. and some of the humor with the action.

It looks like somekinda fighting musical and Madonna's snatch is full of bats. And am I the only guy to think Gerard Butler is the ugliest guy since Ron Perlman? He has a serious case of stroke face going on.

I'm sure I can find some actor uglier than Butler though.
