WaterWorld Appreciation Thread.

[raider5gt]

I liked Waterworld,it's a good film and Dennis Hopper is a great bad guy.

I enjoyed it. It's a little silly, but it's a better action/sci-fi movie than anything that has come out recently.

I think trimming it down to 90 minutes would have made it more fun - so I do think it's a fair that Coster gets slammed a little for his ego.

The Postman was unbearably bad to me, though.

Not crazy about Waterworld (although it's not a bad movie)...but I don't understand the hate for Kevin Costner. Besides Clint Eastwood...Costner is the other great modern Western top star...this is without a doubt. He knows how to make a great Western film.

I agree. I think Kevin Costner is a good actor! He has made some fantastic movies.

Hmmmm....

It was okay; not bad, not good. I wonder what they fuelled them incendiary jet skis with though.

I always kind of liked WaterWorld. Sure, it has its flaws, but it's generally pretty entertaining.

I bought the 2 disc edition DVD a few years back which has both the theatrical cut and the extended cut.

I liked it when it came out. remember Jean Triplehorn being hot. Films that go over budget often get criticism in the press for that and it keeps audiences away at times.

Probably the closest thing to a Aquaman movie that we will ever see.

I think it got a ridiculous bad rep because of the budget, just like John Carter did this year.

The media was quick to label it a terrible flop when in reality, it's not a train wreck. It's your typical "popcorn big summer action movie" and I don't think it's any worse than "Independance Day" in fact, I like Waterworld better.

[Brue]

I really liked it too. Never really understood the hate. I realize it was a box office bomb and went way over budget, but that is of no concern to me. I thought it was a really fun movie.

pretty much the same way i feel

[Funkyterrance]

I loved the scenery and the premise but I didn't think the acting or script was very good. This is my Dad's favorite movie.

I am Looking forward to John Carter Next Week on DVD ....


Independence Day Struck Me Wrong.
I am Just Not a Very Big Will Smith Fan ...., I've only Liked him in 2 Movies ( Handcock and I Robot) and Got a Probelm with Will Smith and Jeff GoldBloom as the 2 People that Saved the World. .... I just don't buy it.

[BlackKnight]

" Don't like the Acting in WaterWorld" .....

I don't think the Acting is Bad at all really. ..... Even the Girl is Better than Young Anikan SkyWalker ...., and the ****** Who Played him in 2&3 for that Matter.


Some of the Smokers Come off as Idiots ..., but they are suppost to.
Hopper has an Over the Top Role ..., But come on, ... He's suppost to be Crazy.


Jean TrippleHorn is Hot ...., imo.
She Gives a Pretty Decent Arse Shot in the Movie .... , Kevin Reynolds ( The Director ) Musta Been Tired of Shooting Costner's Arse .

As Long as Warner has the Rights.

Speaking of all the smokers...

Were do they cultivate all that tobacco especially if soil is so rare?
