You Will Cry!!! The 2nd Prequel

Most of my silly movie threats is me joking to friends that I'm going to force them to go the movie theater and watch whatever big movie was out at the time. Sometimes it's because the movie's bad, sometimes it's based on noobish fanboys reactions, sometimes to pick on the movie over the silliest things. However I sometimes joke about movies that aired before 2009. Here's my 2nd collection of the pre-09 movies.









I'm going to make you watch The Avengers....No the Avengers your thinking of, I'm talking about the other Avengers. You will cry when you see Sean Connery....As a teddy bear.










Nooo!!! I can't look at James Bond the same again!!


Note- The movie was based on a British spy series from back in the 60s and has no connection to Marvel Superhero group.

There was a bizarre scene where Sean Connery has a meeting with his fellow badguys while dressed as teddy bears. The Weather Channel at one point aired movies, this was one of them.

Here's the trailer if anyone wants to see

Eric Bana to Brad Pitt- "I'm going to stab you in the Achilles"

I'm going to make you watch Troy...You will cry...When you see Orlando Bloom....As a pathetic weakling.





Brother, I can't fight this man. I'm a weakling.


Note-Before the days of Justin, Edward, or Jacob. Orlando Bloom was the most desired man by young girls. Alot girls were head over heels over the blond elf archer from Lord of the Rings.

In the movie Troy, Bloom's character was in love with a princess from Greece and took her away from her family. Soon a 10-year long war was waged over for a woman. When Bloom was challenged to a fight, it last a few seconds and the coward crawled to his brother whose more of a warrior.

I like telling this scene to females to mess with them.

Here's the trailer if anyone wants to see








I'm going to make you watch Catwoman...You will cry that it's the worst adaption ever.

Note- I remember when I 1st saw the trailers, I honesty thought this was a completely different character with the same name as the recurring character from Batman. One day, someone was playing Catwoman at their place and I saw the DC comics logo when the movie was starting. So yes, this is based on the popular DC character. Also, Catwoman is a regular woman in a suit, not someone brought back from the dead with cat powers.

I swear, there is no connection to anything from the source material at all. Super Mario Brothers: The Movie, is a far better adaption for many reasons. The brothers and Daisy(or Peach) look like their counterparts and Yoshi is how you expect a realistic one to look. It knows Bowser(or Koopa) is the main villain and his troops are the Goombas(despite they're 7 foot tall.) It knows who Toad and the giant fish are despite the fact that they're humans(well not Homo-Sapiens but that's not the point.) There were billboards and shops that are references to characters and items. You don't see any references like this in Catwoman.

Here's the trailer









I'm going to make you watch Garfield The Movie...You will cry...That you can easily tell Nermal is a male...Wait that's a good thing?




Note- One of friends said this is one of his lease favorite movie. I joke that I was force him to watch it so he will cry that....umm...That you can easily tell Nermal is a guy. He said that was the only good thing that came out of the movie. Honesty, I couldn't think of anything that stands out in this film.


*In a girly voice* I'm the cuuuuutest kitty cat

Over the years, I saw the cartoon and saw this girly-voiced kitten with big eyelashes bragging how cute s/he is. Of course I thought this kitten was girl. I notice one time that Garfield referred to Nermal as a he and that blew my mind. The movie version of Nermal is a siamese cat that sounds like a male New Yorker.

Here's the trailer




(Warning!! Spoilers of the endings!!)
I'm going to make you watch Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull...You will cry...That the movies have Aliens



That Indiana survive a nuke by hiding in the fridge.



Note#1- That fact that there were aliens at the end of movie is controversial and cause fanboys into rage mode. The past three films was finding supernatural objects and now we dive into Scifi.

Note#2- Near the beginning of the movie, Indiana found out he was in a testing ground for nukes and in order to survive. He went to a nearby fridge and pull out everything and shut himself inside and the nuke went off. The blast threw the fridge far away to where Indy can see the blast at a distance. Even watching this scene the 1st time, I thought this was completely unbelievable that he survive. People are saying this is the new Jumping the Shark.

Here's the trailer







I'm going to make you watch the Dark Knight...You will cry...That Heath Ledger is going to play as the Joker. Here's the 1st picture of him.

Ahhh....He looks stupid. This movie has ruined the Joker. Ahhh!!!!

Note- People's 1st reaction to the Joker was them whining on how he looks. As time went on, more photos, trailers came out and the whining slowed down then the news of Heath Ledger's dead came. People were upset and more curious of what Ledger's Joker was like. Nowdays, people praise he's the best Joker and even got an oscar for his performance.


Here's the trailer



I'm going to make you watch Transformers...You will cry...That Megatron doesn't transformer into a gun.

You will cry....That movies ends with two people are making out on top of another guy while his friends watch.



Note#1- There are those who complain that everything isn't exactly like the original cartoon. These complains happen in every version of Transformers regardless if the show is good or bad. The company that makes Volkswagens didn't want their vehicles in war movies so Bumblebee had to be a Camero.


The original Megatron transform into a gun but that had problems. When he transforms to gun mode, some Decepticon had to hold him. It can't move. And last, the toy can be used to robbed banks. All the later versions of Megatron had him as a tank, jet, t-rex, dragon, a giant hand, etc. He only appeared as a gun again only once and it was a silly looking Nerf gun.

Note#2-

I know people like to make out on top of cars but Bumblebee is a living being. How would you feel a couple make out on top of you as your friends are watching in the background.

Here's the trailer




I'm going to make you watch Kangaroo Jack...You will cry...You will cry when you see the dancing talking kangaroo you seen in all the commercials....Is only in the movie for a minute during a dream scene


Note- I remember the commercials and it show two guys chasing a dancing talking kangaroo that has their money. Back when I was in school, one of my classrooms was playing the movie at the time and I only saw the 1st 30 minutes. However most movies usually take time to build up to the main act so I haven't seen the Kangaroo opening his mouth yet.

I recently found out a few months ago that the single scene of the dancing Kangaroo was only for barley a minute and it was during a dream scene. There was Kangaroo they were chasing but it was just a regular animal and he only shows up from time to time.

Can you imagine how kids felt after going to movie theaters to see this guy. He was on all the commercials, the posters, and even the title itself is about the cartoonish Kangaroo. Imagine you watch a Bugs Bunny movie and you mostly see a two humans chasing a regular bunny.

The movie was meant to be an adult comedy call Down and Under but the test audiences like the kangaroo so much that the movie got rename and aimed as a kids film.

There is an animated sequel and from what I heard, Kangaroo Jack got blasted by magic that makes him talk.

Here's the commercial that was showed back in the day along with others
https://youtu.be/kfnDewJUmwA?t=29s
I would show the trailer but this was made before the age of youtube. You couldn't easily look up trailers unless you directly download it. Most people would learn of the movie through commercials. Also the trailer shows the humans a little more because it be harder to make a minute and half trailer that's longer than the dancing kangaroo scene.

Here's the trailer of the animated sequel

I'm going to make you watch Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith...You will cry...When you see Vader...Screaming "Nooooooooo!!!!!"





You cry when you see General Grievous.... Die as a pathetic weakling.


Shot through the heart, and your to blame Lucas. You give General Grievous, a bad name.



Note#1-At the very end of the movie where Anakin starts wearing his iconic outfit, he starts screaming "Nooooooo!!!" That scene looked silly and cartoonish when he scream those words. Vader only had 2 small scenes and this is what we got. The whole internet makes fun of this moment.


Note#2-
A year before Episode 3 came out, there was microseries called Clone Wars. The last episode of season 1 introduce General Grievous and he went up five Jedi and they were unable to lay a scratch on this guy. This really hype me up on seeing this guy in the upcoming movie. A 2nd season of Clone Wars came and the Jedi threw everything at him but nothing worked. Mace Windu manage to hurt Grievous, which explains why he's coughing in the movie(don't ask me why he's coughing in the CGI Clone Wars series).

When I saw the movie, he faced Obi-wan for a few minutes and the Jedi fired a blaster at the General's heart, which causes him to explode. I was in total WTF mode during that scene. This wasn't the cool cyborg that slaughters Jedi left and right, this man was a weakling. 

He's back in the 2nd Clone Wars series that came a few years later but he was kinda closer to his movie portrayal, especially that gungan episode. Ughh! There were several episodes he got back to his awesomeness but not quite as much.

These two have conquered the grave, why can't the same thing happen to Grievous?
Disney better make him come back in one of their films.

Here's the trailer. Remember I said about directing download in the previous entire, well I did in this and that show how badly I wanted to see this.
