It was quite enjoyable. The acting is surprisingly good, okay, maybe not too surprising since that they do have high caliber actors and actresses in the movie.

The music videos at the end simply cannot be missed. Don't want to spoil nuthin'.:rockout:

I'm listening to Dancing Queen right now.

[the chi]

sweet!! I have to admit, it looks a lil corny from the previews, but I am a sucker for musicals, and with the all star cast, it cant be all bad!!

Thanks for the heads up, i'll let ya know what i think!

you're a female, you don't have a man card to revoke. It's ok for you to like disco or sappy movies.

hmmm, this is one of those..."dont say it" moments mister...

kinda like offering help to a woman with napolean and independence issues...

personally i like wall-e and other movies that verge on chickflicks, but i cant stand the thought of sitting through a commercial of this movie let alone the entire movie, rather remove each eye with a old tire valve from a old race bike and shove tire irons in each ear, slowly, then sit through said movie from hell....

then again, thats just me

[fnfalman]

I liked Wall-E too.

Eeeeeeeva.

Walllllllllly.

[dReWpY]

if i could rep you for that, i would...

[Trip]

Wall-e felt like I was being force fed propaganda. That was way too political for kids. It was a decent movie, but it could of done without some of that liberal bulls**t.

[dReWpY]

yeah, i didnt think it was a kids movie, too much of a point behind it for a child to grasp or even chuckle at, but as a tree huggin' neo-nature nazi, i enjoyed it


:skep:

only kidding about the tree huggin' part only time i hugged a tree was when i about fell into the water on the river when i was out clubbing baby seals in the sandusky river...

I usually like the pixar movies, but that one was just way too preachy.

I watched into the wild last night which is another preachy type movie. God that was depressingly awful. It was based on a true story though, which made it worse.

[the chi]

i'll admit it, im a treehugger and think all life is sacred...so while I think that Happy Feet and WallE are great movies, I also remember to take them with a grain of salt and remember the message is different for different parties.

We adults see the message, the kids get the entertainment...

I am to the point these days I refuse to watch "real life/true story" type movies. Real life is depressing enough, and watching someone else's sad battle for either good or ill in real life defeats the purpose of "entertainment" to me. I LIKE the happy ending, whether reasonable or not, and for that short time, I want to be entertained, not depressed!

i just saw mamma mia the other night. i thought it was kinda corny. like they wrote the movie around the songs (which i am sure they probably did). there wasn't much to it. the acting was there merely to tie the songs together. there wasn't much detail to it. and pierce brosnan singing...that was agony. he looked like he was in pain! i love disco music, and that was the best part of this movie. so in conclusion, i give it one thumb up. :)

fnfalman...go see sex and the city. now that was a good chick flick!

[Gas Man]

The only way seeing Mama Mia is at all acceptable is in Broadway or similar. Then its like seeing Phantom, Lion King, or other. Otherwise its...

I don't mind an unhappy ending where the bad guy wins, actually some of my favorite movies the bad guy wins. Empire is the best of the star wars trilogy, yes I said trilogy because the new movies are not part of the star wars story to me, and it has a bad guy wins ending. I just like an ending. I hate shitty preachy movies where it ends with some kind of artsy ending where you don't know what the fuck to think and there isn't going to be a sequel to resolve anything and it basically leaves you empty and hollow because there is no conclusion and you are just like "WTF!!!!" Into the Wild kinda concluded because the main character dies of starvation, but that was such a shitty end because the mother fucker basically gave up and was like "fuck it I'm done" because of his own stupidity to think Alaska would be a cake walk and he could just go out and live in the wild and not die with little prep.

The book was good... the movie was good for what it was... but yeah it tried to make him out as a fucking Profit... dude made different choices in life than the rest of us... doesn't make him a profit...

that's true. some things should be left on the stage. not everything works better on the big screen.

[Gas Man]

Yeah, and I hear the problem with the movie is its directed by the stage play director. And I guess those things don't mix well.
