Good Lord it's that time of year again and they've released so many good movies I'm afraid I won't be able to see them all in the theatre as they ought to be seen. Here's my list: Enchanted August Rush I Am Legend Mr. Magoriums Wonder Emporium Alvin & The Chipmonks National Treasure I mean, come on! I'm on disability here Hollyweird! I can't afford to see all those! LOL! It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education. - Albert Einstein

hahahahahahahahahahaha My oldest went with his girlfriend to see Enchanted. I figured he would hate it but he said it was actually a good movie. This coming from a 13 year olf boy! Me and my youngest are going to see Alvin and the Chipmunks this weekend! I still have my Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas albums from 30 years ago! As for the rest.....when they come out on dvd we'll rent them!

Well since I stopped going to bars about 4 years ago, Movies are my main form of entertainment. Even still, I can only afford so many per month at these prices now a days. Hehehe...

OK, MW ... I'll save you a little money ... I am Legend - Rent either Last man on Earth with Vicent Price or The Omega Man with Charlton Heston. Both of these are original adaptations of Mathesons story and probably better and truer to the original story. My fave is Last Man on Earth, with Vincent Price ... probably the original Zombie Flick that started it all. Mr. Magorium - Ho Hum. It was sppose to be released back in March but tested so poorly that they pulled it to re-edit and reshoot some of the film. I guess even the names Dustin Hoffman and Natalie Portman couldn't save this turkey from being roasted. Alvin - CG??? The voice is rolling over in his helium grave. OH MY GOD, HOW COULD THEY DO THIS!!! Oh wait, they did George of the Jungle and UnderDog ... how long before they do Super Chicken too? Hollywood on rewind AGAIN! Sweeny Todd - Seen this one. OH MY GOD!!! Johnny Depp can sing? No, not really. First half is boring all to hell ... second half finally has some blood and and still way to much song and dance ... The only reason this got made was because it was Tim Burton and he could get Johnny Depp and Helena Bohnam Carter signed. It should have been done with animated puppets ala Nightmare Before Christmas, been twenty minutes shorter, and lost about half the songs. UGH! And next time, FOR GODS SAKE, get Danny Elfman to rewrite those aweful lyrics. --

Hehehe I'd already come to the conclusion that I'd seen Legend when I saw Omega Man with Charleton Heston. I'm not suprised about Depp and Sweeny Todd. I thought it was being over hyped. As for Mister Magorium, still looks kinda cute and I'm sorry. I've still gotta see Alvin in 3D even if it's pure cheese. It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education. - Albert Einstein

I have a very unsophisticated pallet when it comes to movies ... For example, I really enjoy movies like Army of Darkness and Hot Shots. This season, it's Balls of Fury. Nonsense and stupid, but what the heck, it's fun. Have a very happy Holiday and a super deluxe New Year everyone!

Now, my nephew told me yesterday that Sweeney was the only movie thats ever scared him and he loved it, but he's 17! As for Alvin...well I'm with Matrix! I just have to see it regardless of how cheesy it is!

Well.....the creator of the Chipmunks is not only rolling over in his grave but also dieing all over again! It wasn't even cheesy! It just sucked! I mean there were a few parts you could laugh at but not many. But to add to that the projector squeaked horrendously the whole movie and the teenage ***ch in front of me kept taking pics of the screen with her cell phone and every time she'd do it there'd be a flash and then she'd sink into her seat as everyone turned to look at her! People suck!

Just wait, someone out here WILL do a remake of Super Chicken too. When that one comes out I'm slitting my wrists and bleeding all over Disney's sidewalk ...
