    30 Minutes or Less looks awesome. I dont usually see comedies in theaters, cause I want to save my money for longer/more serious films. But if I really want to see one, I will...and 30 Minutes or Less will probably be the next one for me.

    Eh to me it looks funny but I don't think it will be funnier than Change Up. My first problem is that I'm only a so so fan of Aziz Ansari. He's alright but there is something about him that makes me not a huge fan.

    I dont mind him. But unlike you, I LOVE Jesse Eisenbergs dry humor. Thought it was great in Social Network (not sure he really meant it) as well as how awesome he was in Zombieland.

    Ha I like Eisenberg. McBride is my favorite of the four though.

    I gotcha. The first quote is why I thought you were just "meh" on Eisenberg.

    Yeah, I mean he isn't my pick for funniest actor but I like him more than Ansari.

    Yeah thats cool. He isnt my top of the line either. But I think in the right roles, like I think he will be in for the new movie, he is great. But like I said, I love his dry humor. I prefer that type of humor in small doses over the over the top Ferrell types.

    This is what I figured. Well minus the Aziz part.

    Ed Helmsman and John C. Rielly

    The black dude was the funniest part..the scene with him at the party was hilarious
  • bigdaddy2003
    Damn. With Ed Helms and John C Reilly I would assume it has to be kind of funny. I'll add it to my Netflix.

    I don't really understand the dislike of Aziz. His standup is hilarious.

    I can't comment on his stand up. My criticism is based solely on his movie appearances. I've just never heard him say anything in a movie that had me laughing out loud.

    I don't think it's been mentioned...Mike Myers has signed on for a fourth installment of Austin Powers.

    I'm excited for Moneyball. Based on the book, Brad Pitt playing the role of Billy Beane, GM of the A's.

    I figure it will be good with Pitt and Seymour Hoffman in it.

    Wow I didn't even know that. Not sure how good it will be based on the 3rd one but who knows.

    Funny thing is that the third one was on cable here....I had to turn it off even as background noise it was so annoying.

    The first 2 were parodies of James Bond movies - I thought the first one was better but the second one had moments.

    Goldmember was a parody of the first 2 films repeating the same jokes and is horribly dated, too much early '00 pop culture that was stale even then. Horrible movie.

    Just watched Rise of the Planet of the Apes. It was ok but nothing special.

    Thought the same thing.

    It was entertaining, intense at some scenes..cheesy and corny at others.

    Just a classic "okay" movie.
