I hit this one solo today and was pretty disappointed. I was surprised they didn't take a health-scare route w/Pete instead of the direction they took it in the end. (Which would have played better.) I turn 39 in May and have been feeling like I'm hitting that rut. I kind of expected the...

One thing I didn't say about seeing it last week w/the girls but I wanted to bring up today -- It was cool seeing so many kids at the theater w/their parents, specifically their dads. I watched a commercial on Star Wars facebook post today, and it was all kids w/their dads talking about the...

I took my kids to see it last Saturday. The Phantom Menace is the kind of movie that I swear gets worse with every viewing. It was the first time the girls saw it, they've seen the Original Trilogy and we watch the Clone Wars, but I've avoided showing them the PT. Quite frankly, the PT is too...

First of all, how can that guy above have all those Transformers, but not take most of them out of the package?! That's the fun of having them -- especially Transformers, they're packaged as cars, not the robots. Who wants to look at that all day? Now, in terms of the movie, I'm with Chuck. I...

Time to bypass the Review thread for this one and just get into the spoilers and general discussion for Super 8. I saw Super 8 last night, and I LOVED it. The movie literally made me feel like I was 12 again, and that's a high compliment. You have to understand that I grew up w/Spielberg's...

It's nice to see a little more love for Legacy. I saw it Friday and thought it was solid, the soundtrack was good, and it had some fine ass. I was surprised by the casting of the Sam's Encom "rival". The minute he came into the picture I said "Hey, I didn't know he was in this." to no...

I finally got around to seeing Expendables as an unofficial "double feature" with Scott Pilgrim (which I loved). I didn't think much of the Expendables, and I LOVE action movies. There are 3 specific things I didn't like about it:   - CGI blood. The action looked horrible, and the CGI...

Overall, I thought the show was pretty OK. Horrible scheduled reeked havoc on my viewing though. It was pre-empted more than it was on, the only way I saw everything was thru On Demand. I was ready to watch the finale, when I realized I'd missed two episodes they hadn't even showed yet.  ...

How was the 3D? Was it shot in 3D or just converted like Clash Of The Titans?   Doug

I don't think there's one of us on here that didn't grow up with Star Wars -- The Originals, the Pre-Trilogy, or the Clone Wars. Odds are if you're a Home Theater guy/gal, Star Wars is on "the list". What about those of you with kids? Last year I introduced my oldest daughter to Star Wars...

Bump! If anyone has Disney Movie Rewards codes you aren't using, I'll take them! Thanks, Doug

I saw Inception last night and they played this trailer. The audience was pretty into it, until M. Night Shyamalan came up on the screen and half the audience let out an audible groan. The guy behind me yelled out, "The twist will be that they're not really in an elevator!" and everyone...

Yep, Band Of Horses "The Funeral". Cool sounding song, I'm going to check out their other stuff. Found out last night that they're even local, I'd heard of them, but hadn't heard them until now. Good stuff! Doug

Anyone know what the song was during the final Flash Forward? It worked with the flashes, I'd like to hear it all. I watched it knowing it was the last episode, my wife didn't know. It was over, I looked at her and told it was done. She was crushed. Doug above may not have liked it, but...

I'm talking about the Disney Movie Rewards sheets that come in the DVD and Blu Ray cases. They're in both standard and Blu's. Thanks, Doug
