I've not watched Skyfall yet, but I reckon QoS is not as bad as it's made out to be. I rather liked it.

I like all three of Daniel Craig's James Bond films but out of the three I still like Quantum of Solace the best.

When compared to White chicks, Jack & Jill or Van Helsing it is amazing but as a prequel to one (Two?) of the greatest sci-fi horror films of all time then it is a piss poor waste of time, money and talent

Van Helsing is vastly superior to Prometheus. LEAVE VAN HELSING ALONE.

Van Helsing is only fun if you are:

A. Under 12

B. Have only ever seen six films ( Four of which were Adam Sandler films)

C. Both A and B combined

I still find it hard to believe that someone Stephen Sommers managed to make a film that features Kate Beckinsae in a variety of eye poppingly low cut/tight outfits and is STILL not worth sitting through again!

I don't mind it either, but i reckon it's the worst of the trilogy and a not that good movie.

 the first Matrix is fairly overrated; the first time you watch it it's very good but it doesn't stand rewatching as it takes and age to get going and the cg hasn't dated well

Funny thing is, I was under 12 when I was a massive Van Helsing fan I'd seen loads of films though..

it's probably truth that the cg is not aging well, but i don't think it's an overrated movie, because every time i start to see it, i can't stop. But I think you would have to like them first...

 I admit that The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions aren't as good as the original, but they're still great movies... you may have to watch them all back-to-back to be able to properly appreciate them, though. Whenever I see people talking about how they're among the worst movies ever, I always wonder what the hell people wanted from them.

the one thing with the 'matrix' sequels you cannot complain about is the action.
the freeway chase in 'reloaded' and the battle for zion in 'revolutions' are ace set pieces.

The Architect speaking in english would have been a start.

And we could have done without that ridiculous fraggle rock style dance in Zion too.

The thing is The Matrix is one of my favourite movies partially because of the sheer simplicity of it. The man/robot war was much more interesting when all we heard was "It was us that scorched the sky". The sequels not only throw that out of the window and tell us everything, but the actual war sequences have all the C-grade characters faffing around while the people I cared about were on a ship somewhere, and the half-hour straight of robots shooting machines is just wearing and dull. That and to understand what's going on you need to also watch the Animatrix, play Enter the Matrix and take a five-day correspondence course on bullshit philosophy. And that French guy giving a woman a Matrix-orgasm was stupid. And that half-hour Neo in the train station thing added nothing to the film except another bloody fight scene and was equally stupid. And the end of Reloaded promises this epic three-pronged attack which needs perfect timing and then it cuts to the plan succeeding with no build-up at all. And a bunch of other things.

They're not the worst films of all time, but they're two of the most disappointing for me.

The Architect spoke like an unfeeling machine that works on pure logic would. Which is exactly what he was. I've never gotten the criticism... are we now saying writers suck for writing dialogue that fits their characters perfectly?

I agree with you about the Zion dance thing though. The only truly bad scene in the entire trilogy.

That and the weirdly awkward sex scene.

I found that scene almost laughable, awful scene bad dialogue and poorly acted. One of many.

THIS. Though I would say Matrix Reloaded is the best of the three films. Overall it's a superb trilogy.

Many of my peers think I'm a souless cretin for the following-

This Is England is an embarrassingly acted pos
Tyranossaur was unintentionally hilarious
Return Of The King was totally undeserving of its Oscar success
Stoker is an instant classic
Ellen Page is potentially a great actress.

 Skyfall is the worst Bond film ever made.

The plot makes absolutely no sense whatsoever,it makes not only Bond, but everyone at MI6 look like idiots.Has there ever been a Bond film before where our heroes have failed so much?

The hard drive goes missing on M's watch.

Bond fails to recover the hard drive.

Moneypenny shoots Bond but not the guy she was aiming at!

Bond goes AWOL after failing in the pre credits ( and apparently being rescued from drowning by mermaids ) just to drink and shag.

M has no security at her house despite being the head of MI6 and the fact that the building just suffered a terrorist attack.

Bond breaks into M's house again like he did in Casino Royale except this time he has no real reason too.

M knows fuck all about computers because she clicks on one of those '' YOU JUST WON A PRIZE ! '' pop ups which everyone with a brain knows is con.The result being which the contents of the hard drive is uploaded.

Q is so stupid that he hooks obviously dangerous computer hacker terrorists laptop into the MI6 network and actually looks surprised when they get hacked.

Two armed security guards were somehow unable to prevent Silva escaping his cage desite the fact that they were standing right in front of him and he was unarmed

Bond KIDNAPS M from her security detail to drive her up to an old farmhouse in the middle of scotland with no backup with the idea that this will give him an advantage over Silva and protect M.That worked out well.

Despite failing to save M,there is no indication at the end of the film that Bond will be punished for his actions.Instead everyone seems to be happy despite the fact that the old M is dead and they failed to recover the hard drive.

Well at least the new M has a nice new office!
