This isn't based on Twisted Metal, it is a remake or based on Death Race 2000 which came out in 1975. My thoughts are that Death Race 2000 was the shit, and this will be fun to watch just because its absurd. I don't really want a better story in a movie like this, I want something simple and mindless.

i dont really think id prefer mindless but id just think it would be cooler seeing all the people who are messed up in there own way rather than just prison people (if thats what they are if i remember) who are forced to race.... ? i like how in twisted metal they race for revenge on someone whos wronged them or like sweet tooth who doesnt want to be in pain anymore...but also i didnt know it was a remake.

The only problem I ever had with Twisted Metal was the character Axle. He was a dude with two huge wheels beside him. He would have died so easy.

I liked twisted metal 2, but after that it kind of sucked. Have you ever tried Vigalante 8? The second one is pretty good for its time.

Best line from Death Race 2000 goes to Stalone--

Yes that is the actual line.

Twisted Metal wasn't a race though. It was a series of stages fighting the same guys over and over. Like a demolition derby with guns. Would be somewhat hard to make into a movie.

It would be kind of hard to see the same characters throughout the levels unless they get like saved when they are about to die or you have no name people in the race that just die while the only 'known' characters make it to the final stage vs minion or whatever. Plus who would win? Everyone would have to like team up and try and kill calypso for fucking them or something gay.

TM3 went over to another studio and sucked. TM4 was ok though. 2 was best with 1 and 4 close behind (imo)

Wow, so all those other games with cars trying to kill eachother don't exist, that's strange; I've put so much time into such things that don't exist, hmmm something to think about.

There was also Rogue Trip which is like Twisted Metal 2.5. Same engine, same gameplay... but a little bit better in my opinion. Certainly better than Twisted Metal 3 or 4.

Perfect quality? About two or so days after release? Dream on. Anyways I don't know where the hell you watch movies but 13-15 bucks is more expensive than the VIP section at my movie theater with leather sofas and drinks.

How many people here have actually watched the new Death Race? Personally, I thought it was pretty cool(I've never watched the original, though). The acting was subpar, and the plotline was shit, but Jason Statham was fucking badass, as usual, the girl was pretty damn hot, and the explosions were big. IMO, you don't really need much more for an action movie.

The movie wasnt too bad....As stated before if you go into it with just a action movie with subpar acting it is definitely a great movie....The way it ended was not really a curve ball but a easy prediction to actually letting the movie end in a good way....I dont see Death Race 2 being any better then this one just released, but thats my opinion.

Oh I havent seen Death Race 2000 but maybe I should pick it up sometime.

You have horrible taste. Starship Troopers 10/10? It's fun to watch, but it's a pretty shitty movie.

And this: Rocky 1 2 3 4 5 6 [PG] except IV [PG13] 6,7,7,7,4,6/10 movies are OK

Rocky a 6/10? And Rocky IV better than Rocky? Are you fucking kidding?
