Saw Man Of Steel last night. It was very good.

When I got home 'Trouble with the Curve' was on HBO. What a ridiculous movie. First did that fat kid realize he has the option to not swing? And then let's just destroy our #1 overall pick's confidence with a publicity stunt just so our scout can feel better about himself.

Haven't seen Burt Wonderstone, but I did see the Prestige. IMO, the new movie "Now you see me" is a better magician flick than the Prestige. Really enjoyed both, but "Now you see me" really had me guessing for quite a while. Plus I'm a sucker for Morgan Freeman. :O)

I like Now You See Me quite a bit. The Prestige is on a different level though.

Skipped out to the cheapies in Lebanon and saw "This is the End" tonight. I considered walking out about 45 minutes into the movie. Honestly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's advertised as a comedy. There is nothing funny about it. There is nothing entertaining about it. Over the top vulgar comments/attempts at humor that fail miserably. Dude gets raped by a demon. Supposed to be funny? Not. Lots of drug, masterbation, sex jokes that simply weren't funny at all. It's rated R, but DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS TO THIS MOVIE. I never would, but some people do it.

Whoever wrote that movie should be shot. Boring, boring, boring. I don't even recommend it as a rental. It's that bad.

Shot? Really? You were that upset over $10 and an hour and a half?

Hey! How about a spoiler alert?!? I wanted to be surprised by that demon rape.

I watched Before Sunset last night. I found it to be a lot better than Before Sunrise--there is a lot more emotion packed into its 80 minutes than the original's 100 minutes because rather than being introduced to the characters I was already familiar with them but wanted to know what happened. I'm real excited to see Before Midnight and theaters and find out what Jesse and Celine have been up to these last nine years. It's like catching up with old friends!

I watched that too last night. I pretty much agree with your assessment. I thought it was pretty funny they referred to that kid as a 5 tool player. I know he could hit with power but I think the other 4 tools had to do with eating

Saw Before Midnight last night.....before...midnight. It was very good. Tough to say which one is better for me, since I see them as three sections of the same movie.

I thought the same thing. I liked the movie honestly, not the greatest or something I will watch again but I was entertained by it.

This is the End was fantastic. Funniest movie I've seen since the first Hangover movie.

Man Of Steel was simply amazing. Seriously, if you think Superman is Christopher Reeve then you might not like. But if you read the comic books of last 20 years you will love it. A Superman that actually gets to throw a punch - holla!!!

Saw Iron Man 3 last night. It was a mess -- it tried to be a comedy disguised as an action movie with a splash of drama. I had no idea what was motivating the characters in any given scene. The villains' powers didn't make any sense. Every character spouted the same snarky dialogue. There were some funny lines, but the movie as a whole was really bad. Worse than Iron Man 2. Marvel's worst effort thusfar.

I thought Iron Man 3 was mediocre, not nearly as good as the first Iron Man, which was terrific---but mediocrity still lifted it above Iron Man 2, which was terrible IMO.
Marvel's best movies have been The Avengers followed by the original Iron Man.

Always liked Xmen over Superman, but may havta check Man of Steel out! Going to see The Internship tomorrow and This is the End sometime this week as well.

Man of Steel was fantastic. Finally DC does a non bat movie right

[Jmiller21kg]

Just saw Argo. I would recommend it highly.

Still gotta catch that. The Town was one of my favorite movies.
