God, yes. He really stunk up Jackson’s remake of King Kong … how the fuck does he get cast in action movies?

Well, I knew AvP was gonna suck as soon as I saw it had a PG-13 rating. Predators apparently is rated R, so there’s hope. No point in making a film about aliens that hunt humans as prey and then trying to dial down the gore.

Seriously! If an action/horror movie isn’t R, I become immediately suspicious as to how good it will be. It’s been a pretty successful method of judging that certain subset of movies.
