Its been ages ago since I saw 13th warrior, but I dont remember it being bad. I still remember the scenes where he learned the viking language and every take he understood a bit more. They made it that way, that the viking language shifted to his mother's tounge, which was kind of awesome.
“Year One” I think was pretty funny. I think the historic, religious and anthropological references were hilarious. Jack Black and Mike Cera had comedic styles and personalities all there own. When they got David Cross to play Cain and his comedic personality, that was just icing on the cake.
Understand that most other humans just found it incredibly boring and lazy (when I saw the first shot showing the most famous Prague church everybody knows as "London" I knnew we were heading for a disaster). If you know the source comic, it's even more depressing...
The 13the Warrior is actually a really good movie if you're saddled up for a fantasy action fest. It's simple, not too long, has great actors, and doesn't deserve hate imo. I'm also a prequel defender.... so....
Year One wasn't terrible quality-wise. But, I had the once-in-a-lifetime honor of being in the presence of Harold Ramis when the movie was featured at Music Box Theatre back in 2009, tho. Just because a comedy film isn't worthy of Box Office supremacy doesn't make it outright terrible, by the way.
History Buffs even covered the 13th Warrior. It's a good movie and better than all the Beowulf adaptations I've seen. And Year One was freaking hilarious. All the biblical references and anachronisms had me rolling.
I heard that Sean Connery didn't understand The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen when he read the script but accepted the gig anyways because he had passed on both The Matrix and Lord of the Rings for the same reason and didn't want to miss out on another (possible) iconic role. The frustration from missing those other 2 and then his experience on League just completely soured him into retirement.
Always thought it was an underrated comedy. Not the funniest movie ever by any means but truly enjoyable throughout. Oliver Platt is absolutely hilarious in it
I know they’re not actors, but I remember Siskel & Ebert thought about quitting being movie critics after watching that Tony Danza film ‘She’s Out of Control.’
While League of Extraordinary Gentlemen wasn't a great movie, I would posit that much of the problem with it is the expectations given the cast and the movie's premise. Everyone was expecting so much more than this movie gave them that they felt it was horrible--a contrast of expectations vs. objective reality.
My point exactly. A lot of movies that probably didn't do well at the box office doesn't mean they're bad....a lot of them are still good....I love the league of extraordinary gentleman
13th Warrior and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen were enjoyable movies. Why do people keep saying they suck as if that is established objective fact? Isn't that a subjective thing? Speaking of subjective, old time acting sucks. Those movies from the 30s-50s had the most wooden, stilted, affected fakey acting. I love how Carol Burnett made such delicious fun of them.
Can someone explain this to me. If Eddie Murphy's career ended with A thousand words in 2012. How come he's still shooting movies? If The 13th warrior from 1999 ended Omar Sharif's career. Why was he then active as a actor until 2015?
"Cliffhanger" killed janine Turner's career. It remains, for me, one of the biggest box office bombs. After watching, I had to go home to shower off the stench of that PoS.
Any film by Asylum Productions is going to be a low-budget knockoff of anything coming out, they're meant to appear close enough to a big budget film they get the "buzz" without really marketing themselves. It's not likely to be the sole film that ruins an actor's career, comparatively "Princess of Mars" was better done than "John Carter" and one flopped because of poorly-coordinated marketing (though Kitsch's character in "Battleship" was better than the movie itself)
One to add would be Richard Dreyfus after Poseidon. It was a remake of The Poseidon Adventure (which starred Gene Hackman). It was a failure and he retired after he got his paycheck.
Loved 13th Warrior!! Very much enjoyed how it portrayed the differences and strengths of two different cultures and how they can come to work together. Folks gotta remember this movie came out between the two gulf wars, so the timing of its release was also relevant.
Sometimes I wonder why production bothers to continues on a lousy movie. Who isn't saying during production, "This is bad...this is really bad."? Then I realize that once the investment is made the show has to keep chugging along even if the incline is steep, though sometimes it's best to just cut that rope.
It's a shame to because the 13th Warrior was actually pretty good, so was the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Just goes to show taste in movies really has gone down a mediocre path.😒
Didn't Crawford get canned for beating the piss out her daughter on a daily basis???? I seriously want to see Trog now though, hell it sounds like it should get remake treatment imho :D
I know League of Extraordinary Gentlemen wasn't people's cup of tea but it was still a fun film. Tbh Sean Connery was the worst thing about that film. He obviously didn't understand it and only took the job because he had turned down parts from Blockbuster films for the same reason (the matrix and LOTR iirc). It's sad though because you can tell his presence on set helped invigorate the other actors (Except Finn for whatever reason).
In Jake Lloyd's case it was the bullying that ensued from playing Anakin Skywalker that led him to quit. The movie wasn't bad. Now if it was the SW sequels those were horrible
@@edgaracajabon9522 Not me. The bullies. And again if you think bullying is already insulting then wait till you meet dickheads who also have the damn gall to blame Lucas. Yeah that's right even Lucas is being unfairly blamed as well WAY BEFORE HE SOLD SW

James Cagney: The sun is shining and i'm filming a movie in this dark studio. 1961: One, Two, Three (Cagney's last movie before playing a cop in Ragtime 20 years later because his doctor told him to get out of his chair)

Wow, I'm surprised you mentioned and recommended Mrs Angelia Marie Brown. Well I don't have much to say about her but I'll advice newbie to place their trade under her services.
I saw year one when it was in theaters. Honestly don’t remember much about it but I remember I thought it was funny. Also saw league with my whole family in theaters. One of the few times we did that. Also enjoyed that one as well.
