I finally ended up seeing Drag Me To Hell, uninterrupted. I thought it was great. Like you said, not Army of Darkness great, but I was entertained throughout.

The Hangover was a real surprise. Actually, a relief after seeing Transformers 2. See no blinding, expensive explosions were needed to make agood film.

I did think Drag Me To Hell was good. Not Army of Darkeness good, but refreshing from the crappy horror movies coming out lately. A simple plot with some good acting and directing. (I’m obviously not lookkng forward to Sorority Row). Some guys behind me were texting and the lights were distracting. Thankfully the usher came in and warned them not to. But then again I live in deep south TX.

If you like sci-fi and also Sam Rockwell, definitely see Moon. I didn’t love it at first, but it really seemed to resonate afterwards. I think I want to see it again, actually.

@ Josh

I am really excited for District 9, and I don’t know if my expectations could be any higher for Avatar.

As for the site, I am just a lowly writer. Nattyb runs the site and takes care of all the tech stuff. You seem to know what you’re talking about (I am clueless when it comes to this stuff) and we do indeed use WordPress. If you have any suggestions, just go to the “Contact” page and email Nattyb. I am sure they will be appreciated.

Also, what is wrong with the commenting system? Let me know; maybe we can make some changes.

Thanks a lot for reading.

@Madison: I’m unsure of who actually owns and operates this site but is there any change we could see something done about how badly it’s coded? Such a simple layout should not cause my MacBook to jump 30F in temp and make it impossible to scroll smoothly. I love this site but the coding issues make me not want to visit. That and the horrible commenting system. You guys should consider something like Disqus or IntenseDebate if you’re using WordPress (which I believe you are though I’m not sure). Either way, good article minus the Watchmen stuff. lol

UP was great, too. But I agree that it was kinda too much for younger kids. At the theater, there were about 3 kids with their mom behind us and were crying and saying, “I thought you said this was supposed to be funny!” in the first 10 minutes of the movie. I felt bad for the kids! I’m 22 and was weeping. Tough stuff from Dreamworks.

The Hangover was just hilarious. I actually thought the funniest part was the end credits with the pictures. But Galifinakis pronouncing “re-TARD” was a close-second.

I luckily have missed out on the shitty blockbuster movie portion. Maybe I have a knack for avoiding train wreck movies, but it is nice to watch a movie where you can “turn your brain off”. But I personally like leaving a movie in which I can actually talk about/quote for a long time after viewing it. I really want to see Moon (Sam Rockwell is badass), but it is hard to find a location to see it.

You’re right about T3 being just like T2, but with a dead Sarah Connor and a new model of Terminator. The T-X? Skynet would name its newest model the T-X? Are they trying to market it? Ugh.

I think a lot of people would disagree with us, but whatever: I, too, though Up was better than WALL-E. And WALL-E was outstanding.

I’ve seen The Hangover twice, and I liked it much more the second time. I would see it a third; it’s that funny.

As for Transformers, I can understand the circumstances. And as for Watchmen, I admittedly may be too hard on that movie. I think I may like it more as time passes. But really, graphic novel comparisons or not, I was so disappointed. I am glad you liked it, though.

Thanks for reading.

Terminator… my god. Rise of the Machines was, for the most part, the exact same movie as T2. The plot was almost exactly the same, right? Even the way they showed things were the same (there’s a good comparison out there that I’ll try to find). And yet… Salvation managed to be more predictable than freaking T3. How the hell do you manage that?

Transformers wasn’t a good movie. But I enjoyed the hell out of it. After a long year of college, I got to come home and get my wisdom teeth pulled. The first time I left the house after getting them out was to go see this film and it was just fun as hell for me. Definitely not worth seeing it again until the DVD/Torrent comes out for it but… it was a good time for me.

Star Trek and The Hangover I saw three times each I enjoyed them so much. Saw The Hangover the third time last night and I walked out of there with my cheeks sore from laughing so damn much.

Land of the Lost looked like crap. I’m willing to give it a shot though because it has Danny McBride. Year One looks decent, maybe.

Drag Me To Hell didn’t interest me at all.

UP was just… astoundingly good. It somehow topped WALL-E. Not even sure how it did that. And is it a testament to how amazing Pixar is that you can only compare their movies to other Pixar movies?

Whoops! Quite an oversight on my part. Does it count if the lingering aftertaste was still present in May?
