10000 BC

In my opinion, it was an ok movie.  One thing about it though was the extremely large amount of cliches.

Like guy getting girl, girl dies, he says NOoOoOoOo!!!!!1, girl wakes up and the happy ending cliche.  The battle field morale boosting speech has been a token since Braveheart.  It didn't take long for the 'guy spears human god' to become a cliche.

I would actually enjoy seeing the hero to get speared during the highpoint of the moving speech.

Well wasnt there that old suspense movie with the sharks with Samuel L Jackson with that actually happening... just change being speared to getting gobbled up in mid speech.

I have to go watch that film then.

It'll be great to watch him doing "Get these sharks off of this plane."

It looks like an incredibly stupid movie, which would be fun to go with friends to make fun of...

.. if movie tickets weren't so expensive.  It's no fun to mock a movie if the makers get rich off your ridicule.

Tickets are getting stubid.  $6.00 for a matinee?

At least the sabertooth was cute.

in particular "aren't you glad the writers strike is over?"  seriously, if that constitutes writing give me a gallon of mikes hard lemonade and a pen, ill give you real cra- er, i mean gold.

And yet it made $35 million on its opening weekend.

Hollow-wood isn't going to stop making this crap unless people stop paying to watch it.

But since 99.9% of America now has the IQ of a brick and the literacy level of a person born with no eyes, ears, and missing three-quarters of their brain, I suspect nothing will change.

Pop-entertainment is awesome. And I *liked* Die Hard IV. It had Bruce By The Bucketload, and that's what I demand out of a Die Hard film.

The lack of Jeremy Irons was disappointing, though I suppose with his death in 'With a Vengence' it would've been hard to work in. Continuity and realism didn't SEEM to be a problem for the rest of the film though...

I'll likely see this 10,000BC in about three years time, enjoy it and then put it with the rest of the DVDs that I've bought at a low, low price and will never watch again.
