Rise of the Silver Surfer

Galactus is a giant dust cloud. Silver Surfer kills him. Doom steals his board.

If I didn't know otherwise, I'd swear this was a Ewe Boll film. And I had such high hopes for this.

I always wanted to see Galactus eat a planet like a meatball.

Was that so much to ask?

edit. more on topic - I have zero expectations for this movie...I don't even remember seeing the original in the theatre, I think I watched it on dvd or something. I thought the first one was weak as all hell, but I did like looking at Alba. I'll probably watch this one on disc as well.

who is that guy in the previews with the cloak standing (floating) above the earth.

and don't say its doom.

I thought the cloaked one was Doom? Who else could it be?

[Zamtuk]

Galactus.

[Kwonryu DragonFist]

Galactus.

Oh! In a cloak? That's something new!

[Dregor Thule]

It's Darkwing Duck.

let's get dangerous.

When there's trouble, you call DW!

This one was better than the first.

Reed: I was just explaining to the girls about the Big Bang!

Overall pretty good. A little short on action this time but the dialog wasn't too bad.

Was anyone else thinking "Super Skrull" at the end?

Galactus being a cloud sucked. It would have been cool for the FF to have traveled out to Galactus' ship and had the final battle there with the real Galactus. As it was, there really was no final battle and Silver Surfer can't kill Galactus like that.

They didn't need Doom for this movie.

I don't really remember the first one but I have a feeling it was better than the second that I recently watched. This has to be the worst movie I've seen this year. Plot holes as big as a crater and dialogue lamer than anything I've experienced in a long time.

2/10

Sorry, I am bringing another out of the hole.

This movie was fucking terrible. It was worse than the first one, which as an asshole full of caraway seeds.

Metro- X-gamerfan dipshit needs to die, along with this franchise.

I'd give the first one a 6.5/10 and the second a 6/10. While being far from great, they didn't sink as low as Punisher, Elektra, Ghostrider, or Daredevil IMO.

They fill the role of being light popcorn flicks that I really don't have to pay much attention to when I throw the DVD in. At least the Surfer looked cool. Also, I agree that Doom was completely unnecessary and there were very large plot holes.

Btw, in the end of the second one, the cloud flashes with lightening and you can see the shadow/outline of the old school Galacticus helm. They also didn't want to give a definate ending to the Silver Surfer, because he's rumored to have his own spinoff film.

Also, Marvel touching on all the space and immortal part of thier lore was a tad surprising to me.

Oh and to update my last post... Resident Evil: Extinction was the worst movie I watched in 2007!
