Wet Shits?

I love that post.

You know what? I love Event Horizon. Scared me hardcore back when I saw it at the age of 17. You know what else? I really enjoyed Soldier, too. I think DiF should definitely cover that movie at some point. Did you know it's unofficially connected to Blade Runner?

I have always been a defender of this movie, ever since I saw it in the cinema back in '97 (I would have been 20-ish). It's the best film Anderson has directed but is a sad reminder that he hasn't done much good since. Although I second Death Race and Soldier being enjoyable too.

Awww, I have a real soft-spot for Pandorum. I love the concept, love the ship design, love where the story goes. If it didn't have such shitty over-editing and out-of-place martial arts, it would be a bit of a b-movie classic.

I rather liked Pandorum as well.   I only checked it out to see if it was in any way similar to Ark - they shot that movie months after we shot Ark, but it was released before Ark debuted online.  I was hoping we weren't accidentally similar in too many ways, since then we'd look like a ripoff.       

But other than the "sleeper ship" setting, Pandorum and Ark are pretty different - not to mention that Pandorum came and went pretty fast and didn't make much of an impression.

So I was just able to enjoy Pandorum for what it was, and I actually liked it quite a bit.   It shares a sensibility with Event Horizon, but without the mystical overtones - and it's got a number of creepy/scary moments.  I have quibbles with some of it, but overall it pretty much worked for me.

Dude, if that's the case, then those eight-year-olds are pretty hardcore and I wanna buy each one of those intense little fuckers a beer!
