Hey, I liked POSTAL, because Uwe decided he was able to poke fun at himself and the bloody lashings his films took from the society of film critics worldwide.
Any-hoo, I haven't seen Bloodrayne: The Third Reich yet, and don't intend on voting on the film until after seeing the film. And why is that, boys and girls?
Because I cannot give a fair and accurate opinion of the film if I don't. If I voted before seeing the film, any rating I give the film would be a lie.
Example: If you were in school and a teacher said asked you in front of the class to describe the taste of a strawberry. The only problem with this is that you have never tasted a strawberry. Would you reply to her that you couldn't answer properly that you had never tasted a strawberry, or would you make something up to tell the class?
Remember kids, if you see a film before voting, or reviewing it for that matter, you can better support and/or defend the film, because then you have reasons to do so, and it also give you bitching rights and bragging rights, according to your opinion of the film.
Users giving ratings to films before actually seeing them is one of the main reasons the IMDb Top 250 is so out of whack.
A few years back when "The Dark Knight" came out, a few days after the release of the film, it was number 3 on the top 250. I had not seen the film at that time (I actually got around to see it after it came out on Blu), and I was on the board for the film, asking questions like "How can a three day old film be more popular to users than "The Wizard of OZ"?"
The answer was that users were saying in posts "I'm going to give The Dark Knight a 10, even though I've hadn't seen the film".
Well, that's my opinion on the "voting before seeing" issue, and like always, others may vary.
Sticky Balls will provide hours of fun right out of the box.
