It’s like when George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were locked into mortal combat until they realized both their wives were named Martha :-)

The Purge
Well, movie wasn't that bad.

[–] actionkamen (23176) 5 years ago

The idea wasn't that great either.

The idea was pretty goofy. But still, it could've been really entertaining. The reason that the Purge films have failed, in my opinion, is because the writing is atrocious and the nature of 'purge night' is always incredibly tame.

Tron Legacy. Well it was executed well but the storyline sucked.
Tomorrowland. The story of the boy was great but not the depresso adult (Clooney).
Blade Runner 2049. Lacked the magic dream like state of the first.

Agree with Tomarrowland 100%. Super 8 had similar potential.

I was enjoying the story of the secret World but not the weird adult.
