not very well!

Indeed. I read up on it this morning and was surprised at the differences in Wolverine's story, and that of Dead Pool.

The Hangover.

I haven't laughed so hard during a movie in the longest time. Instant classic. Stay for the credits!!!

i agree 100%. sooo funny!

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Great sequel. There were a few references to the original cartoon series that felt forced, but otherwise the action is great. Those who followed the toy line closely will find a few references to old toys as well.

did you see the avatar teaser trailer?!?!?!?!

No, we saw it on IMAX, and the only trailer shown was for Harry Potter.

I saw the teaser for the last airbender. i went to the midnight showing of transformers. It wasn't bad, still entertaining, but the first one was way better. The twins, Mudflap and Skids are incredibly annoying and are there for comedic relief, but they aren't funny whatsoever. The laughs feel forced and even more disappointingly they have more screen time than Optimus Prime, including more dialogue than any of the other Autobots.

Also, while Megan Fox is impossibly hot in this movie, she's completely unused for the second half of the movie. Basically the whole second half of the movie consists of her running in slow motion, while being the only person in the world who doesn't sweat even a little bit in the middle of the desert, tight shots of her boobs bouncing up and down in slow-mo, which of course for male audiences is enjoyable and I'd go see the movie again solely for those scenes! But anyway, yeah, she has importance as a character for the first half and even has some spoken lines besides three words she's focused on the whole movie that she finally says at the end, which is almost her entire spoken dialogue for the second half.

Anyway, yeah, they really focused far too much on the twins and barely introduced any of the autobots, they kind of preview some of the others at the start of the movie, then they barely get any screen time besides standing around in the background.

John Turturro is awesome again, but wow Ramon Rodriguez as Leo, what a uselessly annoying character. He's basically the human version of comedic relief and again it feels forced or unnecessary. Turturro outshines him 10 fold and actually has most of the funny scenes in this sequel. Still an entertaining movie, but really misdirected/written in a lot of ways.

Oh I almost forgot, Sam's mom is pretty funny too actually. She has a bigger role this time around, in the first half of the movie anyway.

Is anyone getting really psyched for this Avatar movie, by James Cameron? It sounds amazing and I hardly know what it's about.

I thought some of the references to the cartoon were forced, and that some of the characters could have been better portrayed, such as Jetfire. While his character fell mostly in sequence with the cartoon, I didn't like how they made him human-like in terms of how old he was. Leo's character was useless, as Lando said. I feel like maybe too much was trying to get crammed into this movie, kind of like Spiderman 3. Still, I enjoyed it a lot!

Oh, and in addition to never sweating except around her cleavage, Megan Fox never ever got any dirt on her pants. Ever.

Yeah she was definitely impervious to dirt and sweat!

I agree about Jetfire and also I was mad that they turned Starscream into such a bitch. He was the only one to live in the last movie and was actually pretty damn cool in the first movie. This time he just gets shoved around and does nothing good except get bitchslapped by Megatron repeatedly.

I also wish they would've just brought back Rachael Taylor, the hot blone Aussie actress from the first movie, she would've been a good replacement for Leo's character.

Gran Torino... Excellent (minus Clint singing during the last minute or two of the movie). Yes, Clint and I are on a first name basis.

harry potter 6! which was excellent, as far as book adaptations go

Eastern Promises. Brilliant, although extremely graphic.

Reefer Madness the Musical

Kristen Bell is delightful in this, and I've had the songs in my head ever since. Especially the Shakespeare one!

I'm too lazy to Quote it but let's go back to Airbender. Well, my brother works at Nickelodeon and as a birthday present, I got The Last Airbender script. Want it?

heck no. it's not like i don't know the storyline already, and i'd rather not know what the movie's like until i see it, regardless of whether it's a disaster or not
