The Jim Carrey "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" completely missed the point of the original story, didn't it?
Aside from being an awful movie.
Wesley: We were fighting on opposite sides, but it was the same war. Fred: but you hated her…didn't you? Wesley: It's not always about holding hands.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Because books.
Did someone make you watch it as punishment, Dana?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I just saw Wet Hot American Summer. What the fuck was that? The tonal rollercoaster kind of threw me, but when it got weird, it was hilarious. Best use of a can of mixed vegetables ever?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I cannot believe the IMDB summary for Once Were Warriors says that the father obviously loves his family. But perhaps I'm short-tempered and judgmental. However, it doesn't seem like he loves anyone but himself.
Oh, yes, I judge.
Also, that Ashton Kutcher/Natalie Portman movie is at least as dumb as you thought it was. But it makes me want a proper, funny, R-rated romcom.

I haven't seen either so I cannot comment.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I watched The A Team yesterday, twice & again today. Exhilarating! Now I want to know more about Sharlto Copley.
