i've already ruled out The league of extraordinary gentlemen because i don't like mr. hyde or vampires, but there's still Hulk, Matrix 2, Terminater 3 and Pirates of the caribean. is it out yet?. so, what does anybody have to say? good, bad, did i miss any movies that someone thinks are good?

Terminator 3 was okay IMHO. No where near as good as T2. The effects where great, of course, and the chase scene was incredible. Worth the money, time, and trip, but not worth the Terminator license

The Italian Job was good.
T3 was good, but there were a lot of plot holes. Like how in the hell did three armed people get access to a top secret Air Force base? And how did the Arnold get from the base to the air port so fast when the two kids took forever and they left first? And when they explained how SkyNet worked in the end, just before the cities blew up. Think about that for a second they blew up..... No more personal computers??????

The Hulk, I liked the way the movie looked, the acting was ok, but the Hulk just looked too CGI for me. And I have never seen a Comanche manuver like that.

I am looking forward to the Pirate of the Caribbean and the the movie with Russle Crow in it.

Matrix:
Pooh Star - Loved It for story line and action
I liked one scene where everyone was dancing. I thought the rest was ...so so.
I expect most people will say it was worth the money to see it.

Lord Kodos: Ugh...I was rather disappointed in T3. It seems to have lost some of its...humanity with the new director taking over. Cameron gave it that extra pathos and emotional depth that this movie just doesn't come anywhere near. Feels very mechanical in its approach. Tries to be too funny and "cute" with the Terminator lines in spots.

Nice visuals and stunts/chases, but not much else here really, IMHO. T1 and 2 were much better.

WHY?!?! You don't need to see it for any reason other than Sean Connery is in it, and he's always a bad @$$, and that makes up for whatever other faults you find with the movie.

I have seen 10 movies so far this year:

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
Charlie's Angels 2: Full Throttle
Matrix Reloaded
X2: X-Men United
Bulletproof Monk
Cradle 2 the Grave
Shanghai Knights
Daredevil
Antwone Fisher
Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

I would say Terminator 3 was the best, followed by Shanghai Knights, then Matrix Reloaded, then X-Men 2.

28 Days Later is promising.

I won't post a link here to not offend those who don't take gore easily.

Ah a remake of the Omega Man. Not very promising at all.
