Guys, Three one-word sentences: This. Movie. Sucked.
Yes, it sucked. It sucked so bad it made Kangaroo Jack look like an Oscar contender. Ladies and gentlemen, the star-power in this movie does nothing to save this disaster. And this movie was supposedly a comedy, right? Well, the only time I laughed was when Elijah Wood made a cameo appearance and that wasn't even funny. God, the plot, if there was anything there, was paper-thin, and there was a wide gaping hole at the end. It's like Robert Rodriguez spent too much money on Sly Stallone and Salma Hayek and couldn't afford to film more at the end, so he had every main character in the trilogy make a huddle and yell "TO FAMILY!!!!" On a scale of 1 to 10, this movie tips the scales at 1.1234.

I have a 12 year-old sister. She pushed my whole family to go see it. As a 14 year-old brother, I am obligated to go with the rest of the family. Not surprisingly, my sister was like "What are you talking about!? That movie was awesome!" No taste in movies, no taste whatsoever....Anyway, did anyone actually spend good money and see a worthwhile movie, such as Seabiscuit or the second lara croft movie?

"The Pirates of the Caribbean" has been the best movie this summer by far.

You've got to be kidding me. I agree, that movie was awesome, but it had plot holes galore. If it weren't for Johnny Depp, the movie would have sucked.

Okay, it's the best thing <em class='bbc'>I've seen </em>so far this summer. Summer movies aren't usually known for their stellar plots. It was the only movie that I've seen this summer that wasn't a disappointment. I had a lot of hope for "The Matrix Reloaded" and "Finding Nemo" but they both were letdowns.

Actually, I live about 2 hours from Disneyland, so I've been on the ride at least 30 times in my life. When you go to the movie after having been on the ride, it makes so much more sense and is so much more fun. IMHO, you shouldnt see the movie without going on the ride first.

It does help a bit if you've been on the ride. I had just gone to Disneyland a couple of weeks before, so I remembered it fairly well. I was wondering how they would tie the movie to the ride, since it doesn't have much of a story, but the things they did were cool.

Actually so far I've liked <em class='bbc'>The Hulk</em> and <em class='bbc'>Pirates</em> for summer movies. I will agree that <em class='bbc'>Reloaded</em> was kind of a letdown, but as soon as it got going it completely rocked. Personally, I'm waiting for them to give the green light to <em class='bbc'>Ghostbusters 3</em>. I hear they've got a script written, but no one's picked it up yet.

A friend who's a Sean Connery buff (he liked <em class='bbc'>Highlander 2</em> for cryin' out loud!) says <em class='bbc'>LXG</em> is an excellent movie. While he is a nice guy, I'm gonn withhold judgement on it for myself, since I haven't seen it either.

I can understand <em class='bbc'>Reloaded</em> being a letdown, because it was, but <em class='bbc'>Finding Nemo</em> was, in my opinion, one of the best and funniest movies of the summer. It most definitely was NOT a letdown. Pixar hasn't failed us once.

I thought it was good, but I didn't find it to be as good as Monsters, Inc. I don't know. I just expected it to be better. I should see it again though. I think the fact that the theater was filled with small children, even though it was 11pm, took a lot away from it.

I actually look forward to Pixar movies, and I'm 19. I find it amazing what they do with computers, and the fact that Steve Jobs (who owns like 60% of Pixar) is CEO of Apple Computer, Inc. :eyes:
But seriously, I do enjoy Pixar movies, and I plan to see <em class='bbc'>Finding Nemo</em>.

Seriously. Some parents are so stupid these days. Every time I have gone to see a movie lately, there have been lots of little kids. I never go before 9pm either, so there is no reason why these kids should be up that late. I know I never stayed up that late when I was a kid.
I saw "The Italian Job" maybe a week after it came out, around 11 at night. Someone brought a 3 year old, and the little kid kept running around the theater shouting.
Last week, I went to go see "Bowling for Columbine" at a 10pm show. Some jackass decided to bring their newborn. Guess what? The baby didn't like the sound of gunshots, so it started crying and wouldn't stop. They eventually left.

first of all - finding nemo is a greeat movie. made me cry. only other movie to come close - Titanic...and i guess im a sad sad person cuz i think legally blonde too was a great movie and either you people never saw it or didnt like it...*cries*on a side note - i dont think there are ever sequels that are good movies. the only movies i liked that had more than one, let alone two sequels were legally blonde (of course sry) and the sfeam triliogy(sp?)...and i guess star wars.....

Well, since Pixar was mentioned earlier in the thread, you can't forget about Toy Story 2.
