Apollo 18 - Vacaville - 09-03-2011 05:07 AM
I went to see this today...it wasn't what I expected. It was good, but I could have watched it on DVD. There was a preview for Paranormal Activity 3...I think that series has jumped the shark. I don't plan to see that one in the theaters, though I suspect my wife will show me differently.

Although I thought the Blair Witch was a pretty good ride, the cinema verite has been done to death since then. Waiting for this one on Netflix.

This looks interesting, but I think it may be one of those movies where you keep thinking something scary will happen, but it doesn't. Then it finally does happen, and the movie is immediately over. They scare my wife to death. I predict a lower body count than my attention span demands.

Eh, Blair Witch wasn't completely horrible, but isn't something I'd ever really want to watch again. I'll probably end up skipping Apollo for that reason, unless I have friends who absolutely have to watch it.

I haven't seen it but the premise of a secret Apollo mission is so ludicrous I could never get by it. I understand suspension of disbelief but this is nuts. For 5 years I lived in Daytona Beach getting my Aerospace Engineering degree. The shuttle was clearly visible and audible from far away and the Saturn V rockets dwarfed the shuttle. Then there were the thousands of people involved with every launch. No way one could be done in secret.

Repeat after me:
It is only a movie - It is only a movie - It is only a movie.
And I'm pretty sure all gouverments do shit most people do not know about. A 1000 people knowing is nothing compared to the millions who live in one country. But there goes the ol' conspiricy theory again hehehe
I think the thing they say about the story is pretty cool (I'm sorry I don't know how this thing is called in english)
"The reason we never went back"
And yes it is Blair Witch and yes that idea has unfortunatly been beaten to death but can't we say that about every movie? From musical to western even
This is just another "let's try to scare people" movie, but I still think the setting and idea for the movie is cool.
I will not go watch it in the cinema because I think the handycam-movie just does not work on the big screen. I found The Blair Witch much scarier on normal TV then on the big screen. It gave a much "realer" feel to it because you watch handycam videos on a small screen.
