Anybody who's seen Skyfall - is it worth it to see in IMAX?
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I would say no. but I thought the movie was just okay. The best "stunts" in the movie are in the first 10-15 minutes. after that, I'm not sure I'd notice if it were in IMAX or not.

I didn't think it was necessary to see in IMAX, unlike The Dark Knight Rises which absolutely benefits from IMAX.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I wanted to see "Killing Them Softly" this weekend, but it got an "F" in cinemascore. DAMN.
As a point of comparison, here are last year's scores. [link]
Given my tastes, just about anything below a C+ isn't worth seeing in the theater (and may not be worth seeing at all). Critics generally seem to like it, but the general population does NOT.
Anyone see it?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Transformers: Dark of the Moon: "A"
What.
Hanna: "C+" ("A" with audiences under 18, "D+" with audiences over 50)
Huh.
It seemed okay from the trailers, but I like Brad Pitt in general.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Me too! I can't quite understand the "F"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Saw Lincoln tonight and really liked it. SO well written. millions of supporting characters, and I found them all wonderfully drawn and real. I found it tremendously involving and moving.

Filmed in New Orleans! t /reflexive shoutout Doubt I'll see it, myself - sounds like too much violence.
Rotten Tomatoes gives it 79% critics, 65% audience. [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, I've definitely seen a Bond movie now -- saw Skyfall with prodigal Buffista Ellen!

We finally saw Dark Knight Rises tonight at the cheap theater. I need to go skim through the thread to find the posts about it.
