I am watching whole corn series this week

So far I have seen
Children of the Corn (1984) for second time, not seen it for years
I like it bit better this time round, i did not find Isaac annoying as I did last time,
This movie is really entertaining from start to end, it not that boring but there are some quite moments in the movie, it was not that gory, there are some good jumpy moment, (I did Jump once in this movie lol , getting old).
Acting is really good from everyone, even two nice kids!
I give this movie 7 out of 10

Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice (1992)
This was not bad at all, its not great but it was decent movie, as some nice death scenes were real well made, there were some boring moment in the movie and I was little disappointing how the movie ended and acting is not great but watchable
5 out of 10 Good movie

Children of the Corn 3
This was really good, this better then second in series, the whole movie was really entertainer, there was neat death scenes, so odd special effects as well, Decent acting from some part of the cast.
I enjoyed this movie I going to give this movie 7 out of 10

Children of the Corn 4
it was lot better then i thought it would be, it some really good moment, decent acting from the whole cast, some good deaths scene as well, with a tad gory at times.
I enjoyed this movie good movies
5 out of 10 (I am enjoying Corn series so far!)

now i done with the corn in series

Children of The Corn 5 - Fields of Terror (199
This movie was really dull for me, It had some descent well know actors in this movie as well,
The acting was good! there 3 points for that
The story and the plot was really dull and I can't believe that was Hour went pass and nothing scary actually happened in this movie or anything to draw into the drama .
There was only one scenes with had some nice gory deaths and the final showdown was really boring and to quick!
The ending was way to cheesy and it did not fit in with the rest of the movie, I did not find the rest of this movie cheesy.
3 out of 10 for me this worst of the series so far!

children Of The Corn 666 Isaacs Return

This movie started of really spooky, i really enjoyed that scenes, Main lead in her voice annoying v and with Isaacs Return and his voice, sound likes cat nails on blackboard.

I found This movie was slightly better then the 5 movies, i

It did not have much gore it int but it was some-what entertaining and movie can be really confusing at times and also liked the twist at end.

Acting was not great but it was watchable still i could not connect to any of them as, i Just found them really annoying.

This one is worth watching! 4 out of 10


children Of The Corn: Revelation (2001)

The very first scenes was good and at the start of movie the kids were a bit creepy with some atmosphere at the start of the movie but as the movie get going they lose it and they also lose me as well
.
The deaths silly and poorly done and older actors was really bad but the creepy kids were descent but the laughing got really annoying quick!

The ending with effect were really bad as-well. this not worst in series but not far from it!

I was only paying half attention to it! and looking at clock few and it was good that did waste to much of my time as it was short movie.

3 out of 10

Children of the Corn: Genesis (2011)

Here a sequel 10 years after the last sequel and remake that came out two years.

The the best they could in the 10 years breaks, this movie was really dull, there not were much going at all, the Girlfriend and boyfriends they crash and they stop and talk for the whole 94% of movie and the scenes just drags on.

The scare scene in this movie so badly done, that you laugh and say come on!, there not atmosphere in this movie at all, everything was felt and plot was really boring.

There this movie not corn at all and the kids were not even in the movie, this were not creepy at all, there could have made look a bit more scary.

The scariest thing about this movie was the acting was really bad, (I Saw the trailer, I knew it was going bad, which actually a really bad trailer .

This is the worst in series paired with number 5 in the series.


Finally just seen the last of Corn movies
Children of the Corn (2009)

This is not one 3 worst in series, as better then the 5,7 and 8 movie series but this movie is 4 worst in series.

I found this movie really entertaining and did stay faithful to main story and like however they did add for new think to remake, which i think worked well with movie.

The acting in this movie decent for a movie in the corn series, not saying not or even good and same goes for movie, even i thought it would be a lot worse (like 8 movies seires that just came out in 2011)
Isaac

When first saw Children of corn(1984) about years ago, I found Isaac voice so annoying that it took me 10 years to re-watch this movie.

But in this Isaac (A thing that I thought i Would never say) was even more annoying, it not the voice this, it just not believe at all, it did suit roll at all, it just flat for whole movie, he was one of the main probably in this movie
and women Kandyse McClure who played Vicki Stanton in this, was really unbearable to watch,

all she did for first ten minutes was shout, moan, whine about anything, i felt like turning it off, went shouting none- stop for 3 minutes of movie, even though it felt more like 2 hours and was so clad she got slapped in the face then, I hated her so much.
.
I could not wait for to get killed and when evil kids found her, I Cheered.

I give this movie 4 out of 10
Give it a watch if your rooting for the evil kids,

Now off to start the howling series.:eek:

My Rating so far for all nine movies
Children of the Corn (1984) 7/10
Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice (1992) 5/10
Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest (1995) 7/10
Children of the Corn: The Gathering (1996) (V) 5/10
Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror (199 (V) 2/10
Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return (1999) (V) 4/10
Children of the Corn: Revelation (2001) (V) 3/10
Children of the Corn: Genesis (2011) 2/10
Children of the Corn (2009) 4/10

Megamind:

Another decent original outing from Dreamworks following on from 'How to train your dragon. Wouldn't be the biggest Will Ferrell fan but his over acting works for Megamind and a lot more of the jokes hit than miss, with minimal popculture references or jokes aimed squarely at adults. Hopefully they continue down the road of original stand alone movies rather than milking sequels for all they can.

I liked Megamind,its a good twist on the superhero tale. his mispronounciation of words is hilarious "hello Metrocity!" "Its Metro City!" and that exchange between him and Pitt about the microwave of evil is brilliant. cracking soundtrack too.

Yep it's good but suffers from not having the 'Pixar' name attached to it. The mispronunciation of school and Marlon Brando impersonation are also highlights.

I've been half-watching 2012 on TV ... how the hell did this thing get made, and get released at over 2½ hours long? The world's falling apart - literally - but we're supposed to care about some upper-middle-class types from LA? :mad:

Oh, and

after seeing Los Angeles fall in to the sea like so many chunks of ice off a calving glacier, the little girl no longer wets the bed every night

!

Pretty much sums it up :pac:

I was being serious :pac: really though KFP2 is one of my favourite movies this year, the animation is absolutely stunning in places.

Haven't seen it but was laughing at the category you put it in - the competition must have been fierce :pac:

Saw Ratatouille the other day and absolutely loved it though

"2012" on last night on RTE 1 was a pile of rubbish I thought.

Bullitt with Steve McQueen.

Always loved that movie
