| Posted by: SkyNet at July 26, 2008, 9:43 pm | | Topic: THE STRANGERS October 21st Forum: JoBlo | | i really enjoyed the slow pacing of it... but i could see how some people would be like "Fuck me this is boring.. do something"... but for me, in this movie.. it worked.. it worked beautifully. The bad guys, i felt were pretty creepy... just the fact that they were there.. and the tagline of the movie/ what the girl says.. is one of my personal favorites.. "Because You Were Home".. i love that! although, i am getting annoyed at Unrated cuts clocking in at like 30 seconds longer than Theatrical! Give us some good shit.. do a 40 year old Virgin or wedding crashers.. give us some more substance! | | Static Link |

Listen grn, you really do have to let people have their own opinions. 1. the saw franchise is the only horror series that is sorta of still getting respect now we have something that could get respect as well. 2. as far as i know you dont know what real horror is. 3 and i never said that you were never going to give it another chance. your entitled to your opinion and im not saying not to have one i was just trying to figure out why you would give it a 4 | | Static Link |

But thats just me. I can understand how some people could like it. The pacing well yea it was slow but thats what made the movie if i wanted to watch a movie that never stopped i have the saw franchise in the strangers i saw something different. the horror was how anybody would react, you would have probably reacted the same way if you were being stalked by 3 complete lunatics. the villains were perfect i have never been creeped out by people like that. the masks were amazing i loved pin-up girl's mask and the ending being given away just because of the introduction the ending was never given away. SPOILERS!!!! it said that no one ever knows what happened that day. i dont remember what it exactly says. did that tell you that liv tylers character was going to jump at the two boys no what the beginning said ... | | Read Entire Entry |

| Posted by: mutesaint at July 26, 2008, 12:58 am | | Topic: THE STRANGERS October 21st Forum: JoBlo | | Ive just always felt that the reason we tell someones story is because it is special. Here is the cas when we save the world instead of destroy it. Here is where the victims fought back/survived. We watch the movie about Iron Man because he is the guy who puts on the suit and decides to make a difference. That's why we don't watch a 2 hour movie about his neighbor. I just don't see the point, but then again thats me. | | Static Link |
