"Alien 3" is a pretty good movie, it's just not a good Alien movie. Se7en though, was Fincher's first masterpiece.
@bandfromtheband94454 жыл бұрын
I think the original "Alien" from Ridley Scott and "Alien 3" by David Fincher are the best films of the franchise. I know Fincher hates it but we got a taste of what he is capable of. Fincher simply does not disappoint! I freaking hated Cameron's take on "Aliens." I hated ALL of the characters and the "rah-rah Hollywood" crap of calling the Alien Queen, "You bitch." It is terribly dated and it's just crap. Cameron made one good film after that one, called "The Abyss." Otherwise, he can kiss my ass. Fincher rocks, even though he's taking his freaking time off from directing and doing more production work. Come back, David!!!

Favourite scene, when the 3 of them are in the car going out to the desert. Wonderful performances and dialogue and fleshes out the characters so much in how they react and behave. I love John Doe winding Mills up and Somerset refusing to be sucked in. Beautiful.

Yes all David Fincher's films are pretty much great, especially the ones he did with Brad Pitt like Fight Club & Seven. But what about The Curious Case of Benjamin Button...? Personally I thought that one was TERRIBLE. So much so I even refer to it as The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttfuck...because everyone who paid to see it at the cinema got shafted

Se7en is the best Batman movie we never got. The filth and grime of the nameless city, the unchecked crime, the darkness and the oppressive nature of the street level could all be the perfect stalking ground for the Dark Knight. All it would have taken is the occasional look up, “he’s out tonight” and nothing more. A Batman movie without Batman would be great

*Fun Fact:* There's this new serial killer movie out on DVD called *_Solace_* starring Anthony Hopkins (as a psychic detective) and Colin Farrell; _Solace_ was at one point retooled to be a sequel to _Se7en_ by having Morgan Freeman's Somerset character gaining psychic abilities. But that never got made, maybe it's because David Fincher doesn't consider himself as a Sequel Guy type.

You know what could be interesting and I'm not saying they should do it because I generally sequels are just a rehashing of what was already done. That being said, I wonder if Fincher and whoever is a hot screenwriter at the present time would be able to come up with a sort of follow-up, where we see detective Mills who now himself is getting ready to retire. Could there be some other gripping story that's not reminiscent of the first film, though shot in the same grim style?

I don't suppose you guys would have any interest in doing a review of the Nicholas Cage film 8mm? It's the one that the writer of Se7en wrote after this film. It's not nearly as good, but still, I feel like it's kind of overlooked... Also, it might be interesting to see you guys review more bad movies - The Room, Birdemic, and the like (and that's just the obvious ones). I'm betting it'd be hilarious.
