GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Wow. I don't even remember this from my Cub Scout days. Though it earwormed me with the forest ranger song from Little Mary Sunshine.

I only saw the trailer for Cars, which looks... unimpressive.

That was about my reaction.

Huh. I was really annoyed at being delayed from the movie I came to see. But I'm a curmudgeon.

Steph is me. I spent the entire short going "Come on, when are we going to get to the movie?"

Hey. New board.

I only saw the trailer for Cars, which looks... unimpressive.

Oh, I've been meaning to say:

The original teaser for The Incredibles was funny, but not really in any way related to the final movie. I wasn't all that impressed by it. Basically, that teaser said "This movie is about a semi-retired superhero, and it's by Pixar."

To me, this Cars teaser was exactly the same thing. It said "This movie is about anthropormorphic cars, and it's by Pixar. And dadgum is a funny word."

So I put little stock in it. Teasers are weird that way.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I see. Except the topic material doesn't interest me much either, I must admit. Car racing is of the yawn for me.

Which doesn't mean it won't be good. But I'll have to have people convince me to see it.

Thank you. I really disliked the teaser (look at the fat dude trying to put on his belt!). I'm glad hear that the movie is not that.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

The first couple of trailers I saw for Finding Nemo were unimpressive, to say the least. I seriously considered not even going to see it, but now, it's probably number two on my Pixar list (I still have to see the Incredibles, though, as well as A Bug's Life, so my list isn't as long as others).

Oh, man. It's so not that it's amazing. It's like the exact opposite of that.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And that scene, isn't even in the movie, GC.

Ok. Now to convince the GF that we need to see it. She's really digging in her heels on this one, for some reason.

I specifically asked Joe, "Knowing GF's comic book tastes as you do, do you think she would enjoy The Incredibles?" He says yes. It is his new favoritest hero movie. It's funny, it's smart. Mr Incredible is truly decent guy trying to make it without showing his true colors which are good colors.

It's just amazing.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Also, The Incredibles is filled with pretty hair. So that is fun, too.
