Buehrle>Wood Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I had a person go see it and text me all the great one liners as they happen. Seriously, I want to see it for pure comedic value. It's too bad I'd have to give them money to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it gets worse: About 90% of this 1,600 calorie bomb comes from fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I just avoid all concessions when i go to movies anymore. It really is absolutely ridiculous the amount they charge you for the quality of food you recieve(and I am talking hot food like hot dogs, popcorn, pretzels, nachos as well as the fountain drinks, which apparently all movie theatres agreed no longer need carbonation and require double the syrup....for every flavor and brand). Going to a movie seems just as expensive as going to a baseball game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxy Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I'm about 2/3 of the way through the BBC miniseries State of Play. It's really really really good. Political thriller, well plotted, well acted, well directed. Simply great. Hopefully the end won't be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bunch of s*** blowing up and being crushed and a lot of people dying. Which happened. Not much else to talk about though except that it was about 45 minutes too long.

On a side note I love movie theatre popcorn more than anyone but I must have some sort of allergy to it because it makes me sick for atleast 24 hours even if I eat just a handful.

Sandra Bullock was looking better than I have seen her in a while. the book >>>>>>>>>>> the movie There's no chance I'm going to see the movie after reading the book. It looks like they basically cut the book in half and focused solely on Michael Oher's story, which is a great story but it's made so much better when written alongside the importance of left tackles in the NFL today and how the league got to be that way.

Going to a movie seems just as expensive as going to a baseball game. You live in an area that has cold weather which requires you to wear a jacket. In case of an emergency, that jacket can also be used as a shopping bag. Bag of muchies in one sleeve+tall bev in the other+matinee price for the movie= $11.00 tops. If you're on a date, you're hosed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 20, 2009 -> 12:19 PM) I'll just say it, women have horrible taste in any kind of entertainment. Movies, television, books, and music. The real problem is that the ones who have good taste are rarely the attractive ones. A friend of mine says that a sure sign that a band sux is when hot chicks show up to their shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxy Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Finished the BBC serial State of Play. Basic synopsis: Young guy is killed in what is initially thought to be drug related professional hit; around that time a researcher for an up and coming politician dies from falling onto the Tube tracks. Turns out politician has been "shagging" the researcher. From there it turns into a an interesting (and cynical) conspiracy theory about media interest and corporate interest in government. Nice twist ending that was surprising, yet made sense. Awesome, awesome, awesome. It's long ( a total of 6 hours) but well worth the time. Really good. Netflix it.
