William ,'Conversations with Dead People'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Nephew wanted to see The Three Stooges over the weekend. So I saw The Three Stooges.
You already know whether you'll like this one. If you're a fan, you'll like it. If you aren't, you won't. Kids will like theh slapstick, and parents will appreciate the "Kids, don't try this at home" disclaimer at the end.
I'm not a fan. I spent half the movie playing Bejeweled on my iPhone. But I was definitely in the minority.
I just came back from Cabin in the Woods because the white-font was tempting me too much. I'm totally with Vonnie, Erin and PC.
there were some funny stuff in it and I walked out of the theater chuckling.
This is me.
What made the movie enjoyable for me is that I didn't walk out of the theater freaked out. Which is also what makes me prone to underestimating the horror piece -- a friend asked me if it was gory, and I almost said no. Which would have been a total lie!
On the screencap my favorite is Angry Molesting Tree!
That was my favorite too, quester. Apparently Drew really likes the Dismemberment Goblins, who are just two dudes who really enjoy dismembering people. I will have to look out for them next time. The mechanical scorpion was fun too.
Oh, I quite liked that one, too, P-C!
One thing that cracked me up and increased my enjoyment even more was thanks to the previews. Before my showing they had a ridiculously high-testosterone trailer for The Expendables 2 and I thought to myself "What, no Sigourney Weaver? If you're going to have the Transporter, Rambo, the Terminator, and Chuck frickin' Norris, you ought to include Ripley!"" And then she showed up as the special surprise guest in the movie!
Oh, and how much did I love the Nine Inch Nails at the end? A lot. I wonder whether it's Joss or Drew who's a fan. I'm thinking Drew. Although possibly Joss, given the first Avengers trailer.
Yes, P-C, that was a great send off!
It was like the icing on the cake.
