24: Redemption. Discussion and Spoilers

[firehawk12]

Wow, Mr. Sideburns is one lame actor.

Is that Gil Bellows, of Ally McBeal fame?

Looks like it, yeah.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Is there any real point to the real time gimmick anymore?

 

[Trekker4747]

Well that was pretty good.

But it felt more like an episode than a movie.

 

[Procutus]

Looks like they did some time-shifting, it seemed to end a bit early by my clocks.

 

[Trekker4747]

Is there any real point to the real time gimmick anymore?

It's the foundation the show was built on so, yeah.

 

[Elemental]

Looks like Elemental hit the nail on the head.

After 6 years, predictability is something 24 really needs to work on.

 

[firehawk12]

Wasn't this salvaged from last years batch of episodes anyway?

Is there any real point to the real time gimmick anymore?

Nope, none at all. Or at the very least, the continuous 24 hours gimmick.

That's pretty common, considering they've got to make-up for the credits and (during the series) the previouslies/opening credits.

 

[Procutus]

Well guys, it was fun. I'm looking forward to Day 7 come January. Let the bodies hit the floor!

Yeah, the ending was telegraphed the moment Jack twisted that guy's arm.

See, this would have been a good episode if it wasn't for all the traitorous conspiracy crap. It's like they didn't learn from last year.

That's part of the design here, to set things up for s7.

I liked the silent clock!

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Jack Bauer vs Clarence Boddiker!

or is it

Jack Bauer vs Red Foreman?

 

[Samurai8472]

"its time to raise the dead"

hell yeah! Jack Bauer vs Zombies

I don't know... I think that was one of the best parts about it... that they didn't neatly wrap up all the threads and left us something to pick up on in season 7. Otherwise the sole purpose of the movie would have been getting Jack back into the US (as well as introducing the new president).

 

[Mr. Adventure]

This did look like the Resident Evil 5 trailer.

 

[Tom]

the preview for season 7 was better then this movie! LOL

Looks like you beat me to the explanation.

 

[Tom]

I didn't see any preview... was it the same one that's been on the net for the past year?

 

[Neroon]

Jack Bauer vs Clarence Boddiker!

Jack Bauer vs Red Foreman?

Or the President of the UFP!!!!!!!
