Last nite just saw a movie starring Bruce C. called 'Army of Darkness'. I'v never seen it before. only thing I know was Bruce is in there, but then I recognize the make-up similar to 'DarkmanI and II' and THEN, 1 or 2 fighting moves reminded me of Xena's trade moves. behold, saw the credits and it was indeed by the same bunch. even music was by Joseph.
Has anyone else seen that movie?

Great movies!

ewlyn · 15th July 2001, 03:21 PM

*gasp* Keph! Army of Darkness is #3 in a triology of sorts... try to rent Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2. Ted Raimi is in all 3... so is Bruce. Sam Raimi directed, Rob Tapert produced, Joe did the music...

They're great films! I originally started to watch Xena because I found out Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert were the producers... because I love the ED trio so much.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun. LOL

Thanx ewlyn! actually, I'm doing the total opposite thing. I'm watching out for anything that's directed, produced or written by Tapert, and the Raimis just cuz I luv what they have done with XWP and I want to see their previous work.
ciao,
Keph.

*L*

Another film, which I really liked by Sam Raimi, was "The Gift" which doesn't have the camp aspect of his other stuff. I also liked "The Quick and The Dead" which is, IMO, worth renting. It's got some cool camera shots... too bad Bruce Campbell got cut from it.

Kephallinian · 18th July 2001, 01:19 PM

well, I guess, these are all gonna go on my 'to rent' list for my short summber holidays!
by the way, actually can't wait for "Spiderman", looks good from the teaser. some websites spell Xena as Zena.
ciao,
Keph.

ewlyn · 18th July 2001, 01:57 PM

What website spells Xena Zena? *L*

Spiderman does look good! Did you hear that there's a Xena reference in it? One of the wrestlers is dressed like her. *L* And Lucy, Ted, and Bruce will all be in it.

I also want to add that I think Tobey Maguire was a good choice for Peter Parker.

Daring Dragoon2 · 18th July 2001, 02:12 PM

I know Bruce is the ringside announcer,but I'm not quite sure what Lucy and Ted are.
I can't wait for Spiderman to come out,I'd like to see.(I'm sure it would be a great drive-in movie if it comes out in the summer)

BTW~Does anyoen know when it's coming to theaters?

ewlyn · 18th July 2001, 04:05 PM

I think it's scheduled for May 2002 release in the US. Sometime next summer.

Lucy is playing a punk... she's in it for literally about 10 seconds and I don't even think she has any lines. *L* Ted is, I believe, a reporter.

Kephallinian · 18th July 2001, 05:16 PM

That's kinda dissapointing!...no lines and brief appearance for Miss Lawless?!
anyway, now, I'm only CONSIDERING seeing it. but then again, I do like watching TR and BC. in action!

ewlyn · 20th July 2001, 10:11 AM

*L* Lucy is in it because she went to visit the set and wanted to play a cameo. I don't think she actually wanted a part in the film, I'm under the impression she just wanted to be a part of what was going on that day. *g*

Personally, I cannot wait to see it!

Euterpe · 23rd July 2001, 01:57 AM

Last I heard Ted Raimi was playing Dr. Conners.

ewlyn · 23rd July 2001, 10:01 AM

That was, sadly, rumor.

http://www.imdb.com has the updated info. I think they also released an official statement or something letting people know Ted's just got a bit part.

It's so unfair! *waaaahhhh!* I wanted to see Ted in a key part. Ted deserves more credit than people give him. He's such a good actor. *sob*

Welcome back Euterpe.

Euterpe · 23rd July 2001, 10:56 PM

Oh!

Well, Any Ted is good!

Kephallinian · 24th July 2001, 02:11 PM

sure like to see Ted in a total different role apart from Joxer. I like it better when he plays Jet and Jess.
Ted did a great job with Joxer but I guess the nature of his character and the story line sometimes leave him less credits than he deserves.
bah! prabably he plays Joxer so well that there are bunch of people just plain dislike Joxer!
ciao,
Keph.
