    He is, that's why I added him too.

    Hopefully, it is better than the last one. Quantum was alright, until the last hour. Then, it jumped a cliff.

    Watched "the dictator" yesterday....meh. It had some funny parts, but I am surprised the reviews are so good. Also, have the things you see on the previews aren't even in the movie.

    I'm kinda sick of SBC. Ali G show was great, Borat was gold, since then its all been overkill for me.
  • bigdaddy2003
    I ddn't watch Bruno mainly because I heard it was just bad and a couple of cats said they felt weird watching it. Ha I thought The Dictator actually looked funny but if half of the stuff in the previews isn't even in the movie I'm not sure if I will waste my time and money.

    Bruno was just fucking stupid.

    Same. I;ve always been a big bond fan. Used to have the VHS box set (vhs lol). I'm probably in the minority but the recent Casino Royale is my favorite.
  • wes_mantooth
    Yeah, casino royale and golden eye are my favs.

    Love the oldies too.

    I always had a goal to own all the 007 movies. No money or I'd do it still. One of these days...
  • The Equalizer
    I love'em too. Sadly my fav is universally panned as the worst lol
  • Fab1b
    Dark Shadows was awful!!

    Yeah, with the price of movie tickets now....if it was adjusted for inflation...no.

    I dunno, but it's smashed a ton of records as it is.
    · Fastest film to reach $350M (10 days), $300M (9 days), $250M (8 days), $200M (5 days), $150M (3 days) and $100M (2 days) at domestic box office.

    · Disney’s fifth release to cross the billion dollar global box office threshold.

    · Biggest domestic opening of all time ($207.4M).

    · Biggest domestic second weekend of all time ($103M).

    · Highest-grossing domestic film of 2012, passing The Hunger Games in just 12 days of release, and is now the 12th highest grossing domestic release of all-time.

    · Highest domestic Saturday tally ($69.5M).

    · Highest domestic Sunday tally ($57M).

    · Second-highest domestic single-day tally ($80.8M).
    I believe it's also the highest grossing Disney film of all time as well.

    Its only 3 million behind Star Wars for 5th place. It will back that by Wednesday. I think it will cap off over $500 million.

    really? I thought it felt like just a long skit. I mean, i thought it had funny parts, but I thought Borat was 10 times better.
  • friendfromlowry
    I read in the paper that Battleship was good for the action, but otherwise dumb and incomprehensible. Kinda surprising, IMO. I began seeing previews and propaganda for this movie last year. Generally there isn't that much marketing for brainless flick.
  • hoops23
    Sucks because I'm a huge Liam Neeson fan.
  • bigdaddy2003
    Yeah, Battleship isn't anything great. In fact the drive in I go to on occasion switched it from screen 1 (bigger area) to screen 2 because Avengers was still the bigger draw. Haha.
