Yeah I agree, too many people went into The Day the Earth Stood Still thinking that it’d be a nonstop action movie, when it was more like The Day After Tomorrow. I really like the movie, and I think Keanu was perfect for the role. lol And I can’t believe that Beverly Hill Chihuahua got a 2.5, was it really that bad?

Oh, forgot to say this. Rise of the Lycans just wasn’t the same without Selene. It was ok though.

It just me, or did this site get hacked? I tried loading the main page about an hour ago and there was nothing here except a pic of some beat up porn chick getting banged.

@Tomo, I agree totally. The previous two were watchable, and had their moments. But I was bored to death by 3.

Perhaps it’s at the top because so many people wanted to see it for completeness, but didn’t want to spend money on such a bad film.
