madness! MA-HA-HA-HAAAAAAAA-DNESS!!!!!

This editor who writes articles for Fandago's website was bashing the UNDERWORLD franchise.  I swear, all the idiots crawled out from under their couches to rebuke his attitude.  Most of them just spewed out meaningless insults, but at least a couple tried to say something other than "you're mean; you hurt my feelings".  One guy tried to justify UNDERWORLD being a piece of garbage b/c he "doesn't need to be any smarter having watched it".  Actually, good movies don't make you smart.  It's just a stupid thing to watch bad movies b/c the definition of a "bad movie" is one that does not involve any use of brain cells whatsoever, either on the filmmakers' part or the part of the audience.  A bad movie can also fall under a myriad of other categories...Another guy, I think, was TRYING to say that the editor couldn't handle the imaginative aspect of the film.  That's ALSO b.s. b/c a smart person, or even someone who isn't that smart, is capable of imagining most of what happens in the UNDERWORLD films before seeing four+ sequels, and, maybe, before seeing the 1st one. 
If you "want to be entertained" and don't want to eat half baked popcorn, here's some examples of well crafted, well thought-out cinema that isn't "some drama":

STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE
STAR WARS: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI
GHOSTBUSTERS
JURASSIC PARK
THE TERMINATOR
TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY
DIE HARD
END OF DAYS
TRUE LIES
