Whoops. Sorry 'C' I thought Robert Rodriguez was directing it. Still he is producer so that's something. All the same it looks awesome.

RE: Anderson directing/destroying Buck Rogers- might just be Anderson's goofy style. We'll see.
I kinda liked the last AVP, low budget though it was, for its ATTEMPT to get back to brutal basics. For a no-money effort, I thought it more or less succeeded where Anderson's film failed so abysmally.
But now a REAL one!!!! WOOOHOOO!!!

He has his hand in it- it's guaranteed good as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, how could that go wrong? (Shark Girl and Lava Boy, Spy Kids 1 thru 100 or however many pieces of that dreck he did, Grind House/Planet Terror...)

Actually, the only thing of his I can find that I *liked* was Desperado. The Faculty was passable, and I have a soft spot for it 'cuz we printed the shirts for all the cast and crew (and where the hell ARE all my old Austin-based-movie shirts? We did "Hope Floats", "Dazed & Confused", "Suburbia", and a bunch of others, and I had shirts from all of 'em...)

But Rodriguez has gotten to be a nuisance in my book. I hear his name attached, and I think *less* of the project because of it.

Just sayin'.

well, to be fair, I have a cousin who is young and loves Shark Boy and Lava Girl, and Spy Kids, and he's more of the target demographic, so you can hardly blame Rodriguez for making kids films that kids enjoy.

As far as the others go, he made Planet Terror which I thought was great fun, although I suppose it depends on your view of it. He made Sin City which I thought was an excellent adaptation, he made From Dusk Til Dawn, which I thought was a great fun, very different, vampire flick. The El Mariachi trilogy (w Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico) are good, unique, low budget action films.

It's all very well saying his kids films weren't great, but he HAS done a lot of fun films, and his style pretty much perfectly matches the Predator world.

I agree.
My favourite is Desperado.
My Son's is Spy Kids 2.

The Faculty for me and I LOVE watching the Spy Kids films with my Nieces and Nephews. Sure they're for kids but there is a lot of imagination going on in them.

I couldn't resist, looks decent. Supposed to a be a prequel to Arnie version.

2nd Blu-Ray I bought was the first movie, lol. Silvestri's score in the first is sooo powerful. I could totally gear up with a gatling listening to that.
