Alien 3 isn't an awful film by any stretch of the imagination. It was a clusterfuck of a production to begin with but there are some great scenes and some great ideas. Just a shame we will never know how Fincher's true version looks like. The different cut on the quadrilogy box set actually makes the film worse but it wasn't an attempt to get close to Fincher's version, just expand upon certain elements and incorporate some stuff he did shoot.

I think Temple Of Doom is by far the best Indiana film. Sure we had Kate Capshaw screeching all the way through the damn thing but I loved the dark overtone and would still love to see the uncut version as it was trimmed over here in order for it to get a PG rating.

Odd thing with Silent Hill. I really rated it a lot even after watching it a few times but just a couple of weeks ago I watched it for the first time in about 18 months and it bored me. However it has some fantastic set design, effects and it followed a lot of the original games a lot (although I never got around to playing them personally so not sure how this claim stacks up).

Agreed. Apart from the very tenuous link of parts of it set in a forest with a witch, it is completely different from the first film and had some really great ideas both visually and thematically.

If it was billed as anything other than a sequel, this would have been much more liked.
