Dumb and Dumberer and Hulk - Nubblies.net Forums

Ok, i haven't seen either yet, as a matter of fact i don't think that hulk is in theaters yet, but that's beside the point. I'm going to make a pre-view review of each movie before i see them, and if any of you have seen one or the other, let me know if my opinion is somewhat correct.

First off, dumb and dumberer: when harry met lloyd. I idolize the original dumb and dumber movie, i own it on dvd and vhs. I can almost quote the entire movie. So with the arrival of a much awaited follow up to the original cinematic wonder, i was worried, and still am, about just how they intend to keep the magic going into a new movie. And from the clips i've seen, it hurts to say this, but that movie will probably suck ass. It seems as though there are going to be more characters that take the "humor spotlight" than just harry and lloyd. Granted it will probably be funnier than master of disguise, but that's a different topic. So right now, with my preview review I'm giving Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, 2 out of 5 stars. Let's just hope I'm wrong.

Next, the Hulk. Now i don't read a lot of comics, nor have i seen many of the new live-action comic derived movies like spider man, x-men, so on so forth. I will say, however, that most probably had good AV work in technology area. The Hulk doesn't look like it follows suit. From what I've seen, the CG work is kind of choppy, which shouldn't be, assuming that they spent over 100 million bucks on this movie, and i know that the actors they got aren't that expensive. My prediction is that The Hulk will suffer the same sad fate as Planet of the Apes did awhile back; a decent attempt, but not worth buying. The Hulk also recieves 2 out of 5 stars, just for pity sake.

That's all for the preview review, what do you kids think?

I've read lots of bad reviews for Dumb and Dumberer. But until I see the movie for myself, those reviews mean jack shit to me. Fuck Siskel and Ebert. They can put their two thumbs up their asses.

As for you.. you could be completely right or dead wrong. Judging a movie on the commercials or previews is stupid. Take the movie Hollywood Homicide for example. The genre description for this movie is "Action/Adventure and Comedy". But the commercials for it can be somewhat misleading. One commercial made the movie seem like a police drama, while another made it seem like it was a comedy.

I know that commercials for Dumb and Dumberer probably aren't misleading, but if you are gonna make reviews, stick to movies you have actually seen. Commercials don't count.

DUMB&BUMBERER I think its gonna suck, u just cant top the first one....but i still want to see it!!!

Saint DH · 06-16-2003, 07:24 PM

I have heard from someone that saw it that it was one of the worst movies ever made. They said they wanted to get up and walk out of the movie, they also said that they wouldn't of cared if they did walk out, and wasted 7 good dollars.

silver and cold · 06-16-2003, 07:27 PM

Gene Siskel died a few years ago. Now there's a different guy with Roger Ebert. Don't know his name...

If you ever wanted to watch either Dumb & Dumberer or The Hulk (yes, it's not out in theatres yet...but you can watch it in your living room, just contact the DVD Kings. I'm sure they can help you out.

hahahha

StDx · 06-17-2003, 03:57 AM

I would like to watch both of these movies... how about you bring them out to the living room.

tonguegina · 06-17-2003, 07:48 PM

Sadly enough, they will, indeed, both suck ass. I will still see 'Dumb and Dumberer', just because the first one was so good. If it makes me laugh more than 2 or 3 times, I will be suprised. As for 'The Hulk', it will most definately be worse. I won't even go to it. It looks like shit. Have you seen the ads? The computer generation looks like complete shit. Maybe they're trying to make him look fake...he honestly looks like Shrek, for Christ's sakes.

Fruitacious B · 06-17-2003, 08:14 PM

Ninjaface, there's a reason i called it my preview review, i was making an assumption based on the little i've seen on previews.

ninjaface · 06-18-2003, 03:30 AM

I know that. I can read. I was simply giving you my opinion about your preview review.

Fruitacious B · 06-18-2003, 03:54 AM

ok, fair enough.

Combat Chuck · 06-18-2003, 12:52 PM

Gotta say, I'm a big comics fan, and all the other comics movies (except for maybe Daredevil) had me really excited....but Hulk, well....Hulk doesn't have me as excited as the others. It looks okay, but from what I've heard, they're diverging from the original origin and the CGI, as Fruity up here put it, doesn't really look all that refined. He sometimes looks like a troll.

Either way, I'll see it in theaters and form an opinion on the actual thing.
