This movie isn't bad, but it's a bit hard to follow without having seen the first four in the series first. I guess that's the trouble with sequels. For some reason, however, I can't seem to find any of the others anywhere! Maybe they weren't as good.
XImen and the confusingly titled XI-2 weren't as nearly as good a franchise as the Slaughterhouse Saga ( though I never really cottoned on to Slaughterhouse Vs Predator On A Plane. )
For that matter, anyone looking forward to the timely release of Fritz Lang's "N"? I heard the scene where Peter Lorre faces off to Samuel L Jackson's bounty hunter is a classic.
Hi everyone! I am really glad everyone has enjoyed this message board so much. Me too. Here are some more I have thought of. I think everyone of these we have all mentioned is way better than this or any year's crop of "green-lit" films. I feel like this is a long extension of the "Player" intro.
* "Kramer Vs. Costanza" * "Alive Prose Guild" * "The Wizard of Oz Penitentiary" * "Lucid and Organized" * "St. Elmo, The Arsonist" * "Limited Recall" * "Arthur 3: With An Olive" * "Cream of Wheat Dad" * "Joe Versus The Unpredictable Geyser" * "How Far Go?" * "Kreuger: A Man and His Nightmare" * "There May Be Plasma"
Hopefully, we can all enjoy these. even the dude that tried to school us on what "Slaughterhouse 5" actually is. For those in the LA area, see me Kenny Tarr in Eric Bogosian's "Sex, Drugs, Rock&Roll" at the Hollywood Fight Club Theater March 27 to April 13, every Thursday at 8, Saturday at 8 and Sunday at 3.

Lot's of sequel and prequel talk here, i think there's something to be said for remakes though . . . especially now that Del Toro is talking about remaking at least the fifth Slaughterhouse film, if not the previous four or latter nineteen . . . but as we all know after seeing Frankbenstein, remakes/reinterpretations can be a huge, awful, boring mistake.
Don't even get me started on Win Frankbenstein's Money either, what an awful moment in cinema history THAT was.
You guys are ridiculous Slaughterhouse Five was complete and utter *beep* Everyone knows Slaughterhouse Three is the masterpiece, Four was passable and . . . Let's just be thankful that they stopped at Five. Interestingly enough the novelization, by some guy name Curt von Glut or something, is actually pretty good. Too bad he didn't write the screenplay. Ah well. We always have the original trilogy... So it went.
The problem with this kind of films is that they have so much material that they have to release them on parts. That's why it usually ends being such an incongruous mess. It happened to Lynch too with his Highway Trilogy -Highway blocked,Highway II:Diversion and Lost Highway-.
Actually, the Slaughterhouse series is always released as a full box set. You watch the series all at the same time from a glass dome filmed in front of a live studio audience that lives in the forth dimention. You watch every installment of the box set and have no control over what point or what sequel you will watch. Like just this morning I was watching it with my good friend Ms. Civilwellesteemedprofessional while I was dealing with the problem of getting it unstuck from inside the DVD player.

Well I wish these movies were playing at the theater rather than the bs at the theater. really i have a choice between Jonas, Madea and International at one theater and other stuff I have seen at other...I wish these movies, remakes and sequels /ripoffs wuld be made....I would probably see Player 2 first and then sneak in and see A Very Specific Sunday. Triumph of The Dorks would be great...not! Well I am going to think of more
This reminds me of the reason why the British film The Madness of King George III was renamed The Madness of King George in the U.S so that Americans wouldn't think that they had missed the other two!

This post has nothing to do with either the movie or the book. I think it was just a slow day at the zoo and the animals started to act up and didn't know when to stop.
I checked out Sorority Sluts VI this weekend. I thought I might have trouble following it, since I haven't seen Sorority Sluts I through V, but it was pretty easy to get into.
