The Bookie Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 If it counts as an Action Hero movie, I'd put Oldboy up with them and the first Matrix in the conversation. Link to comment
King Heffy Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 did you know they are americanizing Oldboy? I don't know how I feel about that, however .... ....looks pretty promising. I love Josh Brolin. anyways, Drive was the best action movie of the last 25 years. Hot Fuzz a close second. Link to comment
Crom! Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I knew . I'm pretty excited for it because I can never convince anyone that I know to watch a Korean movie. It could be good, but in all likelihood I'll be a bit disappointed, but I'm not usually overly critical in general. Link to comment
a Fool Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Argument is flawed colon dee. Action Hero is not Super Hero. Action hero is Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, ^Oldboy, ect. However, I can't argue that those are the best Super Hero movies. Great stuff. Dark Knight was only in the ballpark because of the Joker - otherwise it was w/e. did you know they are americanizing Oldboy? Link to comment
:D Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Maybe your right, superheroes, action films, etc. Link to comment
The Bookie Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 lol wat? How do you convince a Hollywood studio to remake that? Should be interesting if they don't play it safe. Link to comment
Buddhas Hand Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 While I think the Watchmen is great movie ,IMO the best action hero movie ever made is Link to comment
Argon Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 the comedian is one of my favourites all time. Same with rorschach. Link to comment
hudson bay rules Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 V for Vendetta is absoluteley one of the very best superhero movies ever. I revisited Watchmen just a week ago and I didn't enjoy it as much as the first time I saw it. That being said, I still think it's a great movie. It has one of the coolest lines ever when Rorschach goes: "None of you seem to understand. I'm not locked in here with you. You're locked in here with me" Link to comment
Ghostsof1915 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Best Action Movie? Try Casino Royale as Number 2. Hard Boiled wins hands down. Honorable mentions to Die Hard and Last Man Standing. Link to comment
avelanch Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 v for vendetta isn't an action hero movie... also, scott pilgrim vs the world was better than both of those movies. Link to comment

Alchemy Time Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Had Heath Ledger not done so well in the Dark Knight, Begins would be the best in the trilogy. I don't agree with Watchmen. It was visually stunning, and Rorschach was played excellently, but it just wasn't quite on the same level as the graphic novel, which is why I didn't actually like it that much. It did have one of my favourite movie lines ever though: "[The city] will look up and shout 'Save us!', and I'll whisper 'No.'" Link to comment
Master Mind Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I don't think The Dark Knight was even the best of the trilogy... Link to comment
