The plant part made it feel like a diehard Greenpeace member's first script.

I've never really understood the hate for The Happening. It's not amazing, but it's not bad.

Star Trek: Generations. Picard and Kirk in the same movie with Malcolm McDowell as the villain. What could possibly go wrong?

I was wondering if any of the sequels improved on the concept, but I gave up after the first one.
Do they improve in quality or do they just touch on themes like you mention? |
In the second one they decide to follow what actually happens on the outside and what others are going through. You end up seeing how it affects minorities and that there is a club of rich people that use The Purge to hunt people cliche.
The third one really slaps you in the face about how poorly the lower class is treated and there is a female candidate running for office that will end The Purge if she wins. They wanted to play into the whole Hillary/Trump comparison. You also get to see the behind the scenes of the New Founding Fathers which is basically just rich white old men. They have a candidate of their own running against her but in this last movie. They actually let you follow the same character from the second movie into the third. You should check it out if you are curious where they went with it. |

Q (1982) This is the only movie I'm aware of that's about the Aztec feathered serpent god Quetzalcoatl. In its 1982 incarnation, it's a schlocky monster movie set, inexplicably, in New York City. However, change the setting to southern Mexico and make Quetzalcoatl more of a terrifying, incomprehensible force of nature and I think you have the beginnings of good horror movie or even, if handled correctly, some kind of psychological terror. I think Guillermo del Toro could make something great out of this. |
