Just saw it yesterday.

Frankly, I liked it. It had enough killing to keep me interested, didn't bog down the story with sex, and kept the gore to an almost-minimum.

The plot was actually pretty good, and an added bonus was that if you know your History/Geography, you can figure out almost exactly where these people lived.

The little hints of mysticism, prophesies, an magic were sort of odd, but they fit well and the plot didn't focus on them so much as to make the movie totally unbelieveable.

What did you think?

Its a great movie, they did a good job. What i didn't like was the huge animals because they looked kind of ... unrealistic-ish..

I thought it was 10,000 B.C. not 100,000,000,000 B.C.

Anyway, I'm begging my parents to go take me to it, it looks completely awesome.

Yeah because you definitely know what a saber toothed tiger looks like in real life.

Meh, it's a Rowland Emmerich film, so it'll either be pretty good, (Like Stargate and The Day after Tommorrow) complete shit (Like Godzilla ::shudder::) or fairly entertaining, but not very good (Independance Day).

It was okay. It had great potential but it just didn't reach it. I thought the acting wasn't very good and what happens is too typical.

OUT OF LIKE 1,000,000 SLAVES TO SACRIFICE THEY PICK ONE OF THE CHARACTERS FROM THE MOUNTAIN PEOPLE VILLAGE AND THEN THE ONE CHICK WHO THE STORY REVOLVES AROUND, SOMEHOW THE WHIPPING MARKS ON HER HAND FORM A HOLY SYMBOL OR SOME SHIT

Those parts really pissed me off.

Effects looked beautiful but I'd rather have another movie as the first movie I've seen on it's opening day.

Yeah, that's a Rowland Emmerich film for ya.

All his movies are so ****ing shallow.

"Hey guys, let's make a movie with a huge budget and make loads of money off it"!

"Sure, Rowland, what'll it be about?"

"Well, Jurrassic Park was really successful, so lets have dinosaurs... oh, and make there be people, too, this isn't a Pixar movie... Oh, I know, let's take an old movie and remake it!"

"Um... that didn't go too well the last time you did that... remember Godzilla?"

"Oh, forget about that, we'll remake 10,000 B.C.! Go hire a writer and start filming while he's writing, we're gonna make a blockbuster"

"Sir, why not write the script and THEN film?"

"What, do you think people care about a deep plot with original, interesting characters, and unique plot twists? NO! People wanna see big-budget special effects! Now get those computer dudes to make me some mammoths running up the side of a pyramid, then slap on some generic script!"

I'm not planning to see it. The historical inaccuracies are just huge.

As in, I think there were dinosaurs. When were there people and dinosaurs alive at once?

NEVER, THAT'S WHEN >:|

No dinosaurs. Just Mammoths and Bird things.

NEWNEWS:
This is a movie, not a History Channel special.

No dinosaurs.
Besides, archeologists have found human footprints inside of dinosaur footprints so I guess somewhere along the line, they were.

You have no excuse. Go see the damned movie.


I sorta agree with you, Ash. The plot could have been somewhat less "chosen one"-ish, but you have to admint that it wasn't bad.

I don't know about you, Smashy, but I don't see movies to learn.

Leave it to a scientist to spoil the fun.

A movie too absurd isn't fun either.

I mean, come on ... the shark in "the Jaws" was actually roaring. Fish can't produce voices of their own. Something like that really spoils the fun.

So I don't really blame him if he doesn't want to.

I don't know, there are other movies I want to see more than this one. I ain't wasting my time.

Do You?

I meant it looked something like this.

But then you have a point, nevermind.

I don't see movies where the director doesn't even understand what he's making a movie on, or where he has to make a shitty plot and cover it up with the standard "action movie tokens" to make it sell.

Ayayayaya.
