The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
While i think Curse is better, its another very strong entry on the franchise. Mancini does a good job connecting all the movies again. I hope his series picks up after this movie.

I have also been meaning to watch the FF movies. I've only seen the first one, when I was 15 and getting into "serious films", and I hated it because I was a pretentious little shit. Not anymore though!!!

I’ve never seen a F&F movie. It’s probably snobby but the kind of people that watch them turn me off wanting to ever see them. Meaning people I know here. Not you guys.

1, 5, 6, and 8 are legimitely great films. 2 and 7 are also good. 3 and 4 pretty much suck. Their reputation as “dumb” is mostly just elitism; there are genuinely thoughtful themes and the craftsmanship is pretty terrific.

I think I've only seen the first one and kinda hated it from memory. Never felt the desire to continue with the series, but I think I might be coming around.
Watched How it Ends last night. This movie seemed a little confused as to what it wanted to be.

Meant to ask you! What we do in the shadows is getting a tv series?!?! That could be brilliant. What do you think?

When I say dumb I'm not referring to the themes or craftsmanship rather the gravity defying superhero level strength and ability of the characters. I find car porn to be dumb too.
