This film looks pathetic.... As pathetic as Pengragons arse wipe version. We all know that Tim Hinds among other film makers comes on these boards, i'd really love to know his/their opinion.

You know that isn't going to happen, Rusti. Whilst comparisons to other films is inevitable on each board, it might be better if we kept it as just that.. and stopped using Hines as a whipping boy on every board. Personally, I'm not impressed with him either but I'd rather not hear about him in every other post.

You're right, Evil, this is not the place to whip Hines.
To the Pendragon board chaps! Tally ho!!!

Best not to emntion it again then.
Guys, so if we can keep the Paramount stuff to the Paramount section, the Pendragon stuff to the Pendragon section and the C.T. Howell stuff . . . . you get the jist. Makes life a lot easier for members, visitors and mods.

PS evil. i know hinds and others comes on here. I have proof which an ex member showed me. I know they do.. What I meant was that they aren't likely to post here. Besides which.. if you have such proof and aren't willing to disclose it because you think we'll kick your ass out of here (which I can't see the reasoning behind but there you go. No one has ever been kicked off here for proving anything.), it's probably best not mentioned. I can think of no reason, asides from alluding to some kind of conspiracy theory (and this has been touted, again with no proof forthcoming, before) why it has any relevence to this topic anyway.

I think the film is going to be trash..let's be realisitic, it was made on a small budget over a few weeks with the intent and purpose of cashing in on the Speilberg version...but I like cheerful tackiness of it all. At least these people KNOW they are making a cheap exploitation flick in hopes of making the quick buck, and don't have pretentions.

Could be, or you get a little sticker with the purchase that has a image of a 'Golden Globe' award, just to give the cover that extra 'pazaz'

you know looking at it I think these fighting machines are tripods, to a degree....
The legs start as three but then branch off to become six, so its logical to assume this is for two reasons: 1 for stability in a realistic world (in reality you could hit a tripod as it walked with on leg in the air and knock it over quite easlily) and 2 for ease of animation, its a lot easier to animate six legs than it is three, especially when your on a small budget and time is money. At some point in the fil we may see the legs in unity, so they may look like true tripods, but its all down to your own perceptions, if a child is born with a mutant leg which has two feet at the end do you say "hey that child has three legs" even though it only has two thighs? Or do you say "hey that child has three feet"? Up to you.
Im glad for a new version, I wont mention Pendragons dire fest as its a taboo around here to wander off topic but i will say this, with all its cheap sci-fi channel trappings and its ID4 ripoff DVD cover and its tripods with six feet it still looks like good honest cash cow fun worthy of two hours of my time...unlike other films that look like they have been shot with a nokia camera phone....
