Movies

[Agent M]

Uh.... Cress, if you liked the movie then would that really be wasting your money?

[Cress]

I guess not, but SIX DOLLARS? What is the world coming to that it costs six dollars, for a matinee show no less. That was my entire allowance, and now I'm probably going to another movie today. Why can't I come up with anything else to do with my friends? Why?

[Chani]

Why? Because it is so fun to go see movies. I like renting them in the comfort of my home... I don't get out much...

[Cress]

Ya know, I should probably do that more often, since I can get my mom to pay for it when I rent them. Hey, that reminds me. I don't live next to the stupid state fair anymore! YES! Randomness there, but my mom keeps telling me to invite friends to go to the fair with me instead of going to movies. And it makes me happy that i don't live about a block away from it anymore, because I don't get to hear all the free fireworks, and free concerts that I don't really want to hear, and have all the lovely traffic, and smells, and litter, oh joy.

[Chani]

I am so in the mood to go rent a movie... I think that I will tonight... and no one is gonna stop me!

[Kathy Li]

DB, respectfully, I have to decline seeing Catwoman. It just looked really bad. I'm waiting for Elektra: Terence Stamp as Stick. 'nuff said.

Meteorite: I was all set to see Hero but a friend called and asked me to see Zatoichi. Given that I've watched roughly a dozen or so of the original Zatoichi flicks on IFC's "Samurai Saturdays," it took precedence.

[Birdhead]

I have seen several movies on video recently, so, uh, share! Right.

Underworld. I saw this not expecting much, and it lived up to my expectations; it was okay, but I'm glad I didn't spend the $13 it costs me to see it in the theatres. (And you thik $6 is a waste, Cress. )

Maid in Manhattan This was actually better than I thought! Mostly because it opened with Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard, and there is Simon and Garfunkel geekery in there ("Mom! That was Simon and Garfunkel!" "Right, I'm sorry." "You can't just turn them off!" "I UNDERSTAND!") Also, I was worried about, well, JLo. But- shock and awe- she really wasn't too bad! I'm very impressed.
Also, she didn't sing. That I noticed. Now, THAT's impressive.

Daredevil. Okay. I LIKED the other comic book adaptations; at worst, the heros were hot, at best, they were funny and clever if light trash. Daredevil was neither funny nor pretty. Waste of EVERYONE's time.

Kissing Jessica Stein. Mm, I'm ambiguous; the idea was okay but I didn't really get involved with any of the characters, I didn't really care about them. So... it was okay, it was clever, but not moving, which is sad 'cause maybe it would have been really good.

I still have three others to watch, because they had a 6 for $11 deal plus Underworld for $7, so I... spent a lot, because I'm house-sitting and there is not really a lot else to do. *shrugs* And they were eight-day rentals...

[Quill]

I have to say that while I try very hard not to pay attention to Ms. Lopez, I did think she did an superlative job in "Out of Sight" (which was, IMHO, better than the book). I don't think I've seen her in anything else, but I can appreciate her acting skills there.

Kli: I know it seems like crap. Hey, I wanted to see Collateral! But my brother started "No mom, I wanna see Catwoman." And there she goes...

Still, it's much better than what it seemed. The moves are great, and you get entertained! YA!

Plus, Halle Berry's on it...

[Cress]

Ugh. Halle Berry. Not much to my taste. And JLo is so NOT to my taste it's almost as bad as Orlando Bloom. I watched Mary Poppins last night. I LOVE that movie. Julie Andrews looks so different now, it's creepy! And can she sing. Whoa beans, it's amazing.

[Chani]

Ahhh... Mary Poppins.. that is a regular in my household. And just about every other good Disney movie. I recently got 'Follow Me Boys' and my boys didn't move the entire 2+ hours. I was impressed. And just to make sure it wasn't a fluke, they watched again later and didn't move again... I don't think that I dare a third time.

I want to see Hero... I like Jet Li... even though he hasn't gotten that many great parts... need better writers.

[Agent M]

Collateral looks good... But no one in my family wants to see it... And neither do my friends.. *grumbles*
ORLANDO BLOOM IS EVIL!!!!!

[Zgirl]

I want to see hero. It sounds very very good! I think I'll go to see it sometime actually...I don't know who would go with me though...my parents and brother probably wouldn't want to see it and my friends won't. Maybe Chani can go with me...( jk.)

[Agent M]

Is Hero the one about Alexander the Great?
"Daredevil. Okay. I LIKED the other comic book adaptations; at worst, the heros were hot, at best, they were funny and clever if light trash. Daredevil was neither funny nor pretty. Waste of EVERYONE's time." NO! Daredevil was good!!! Course... I've never read the comics.... But I thought it was pretty good. And it had Bring me to Life in it...
"Underworld. I saw this not expecting much, and it lived up to my expectations; it was okay, but I'm glad I didn't spend the $13 it costs me to see it in the theatres. (And you thik $6 is a waste, Cress. )" Underworld ROCKED!! Except for the end....

When she chops off what'shisface's face (hee hee) it looks SOOOO fake, it was actually funny it was so fake, the rest of the movie had pretty good special effects and then she slices his head in half and it just slides off... I can't remember but I don't think there was even any blood... Except on her sword or whatever... *shakes head*

DARE DEVIL!!! *PUKE, PUKE, PUKE!!* It's *******' Spider Man with a stick!
