Which movie are you more likely to see this weekend?

[Charlie Don't Surf]

I was just curious since there's a wide range of new releases coming out tomorrow! Assume that you absolutely HAVE to see one of these movies.

I look forward to the lull that this weekend will bring to my theatre after the shit show that was Harry Potter last week.

Please elaborate. Do you think none of these cinema titans has the ability to knock Harry off the top of the box office?

Pit two rated R movies against a PG and I'm always going to choose the PG.

That being said, the kids would rather see g-force as well.

If you see it in 3D, let me know if it's worth the extra bit.

I'd probably go see Up. None of the ones coming out this weekend look any good to me.

QFT.

Up is in the local dollar theater, so I probably am going to take the kids to see it (they haven't yet).

It is a wonderful movie.

If I was going to the cinema I'd probably see Harry Potter.

I'm not going though.

How the crap did Ugly Truth get an R rating? The previews I've seen don't make it look all that bad.

I know there are better movies in theaters. But I'm here to ask the hard questions.

If something knocks HP off the top (which is possible, especially with the disney movie being the only new kid-friendly release this weekend, and the media blitz they've been doing on it) then it won't be there long - HP IMAX is out next wednesday, so it's going to rock the box office again.

It's supposedly rather vulgar.

I don't know, but maybe, "The film's comic high point is a restaurant scene in which Abby[spoiler:2wtqxbdw]'s vibrating panties (one of Mike's ideas) go haywire[/spoiler:2wtqxbdw] while she's having dinner with her bosses."

There's no censoring the ugly truth about gender relations in the dating world :smug:

Fixed that for you.

They actually released that scene to promote the movie.

Let me repeat. They released the scene to which you are referring as a way to try to get people to see the movie.

 

You couldn't pay me enough to see some of the films coming out this weekend. But if you want to I'll take up a collection. I hear that works well.

 

[Steven Soderburgin]

If you guys send me $50, I'll see the winner of the poll.

 

[strawman]

The ugly truth is getting all sorts of bad reviews, and only scores a 7% on the tomatometer (significantly lower than the much-railed-against transformers on this forum).

One review says, "For a movie aimed primarily at a female audience, The Ugly Truth seems strangely intent on setting the women's movement back three or four decades."

It would surprise me to see you go see that one...

-Adam

 

[Steven Soderburgin]

I'm actually somewhat curious to see just how misogynistic it really is. Everything about that movie seems wholly repugnant.

 

[Shegokigo]

I haven't been interested in anything in theaters since Drag Me to Hell.

 

[Jay]

I'm going to go see that rom-com movie with Gerald Butler and that chick from Knocked Up. The things we do for Vag.

And SeriousJay continues his illustrious posting career with this wonder.

If you promise to see the movie we pick, I'm going to change my vote.

-Adam

 

[Shakey]

Huh, guess I should have looked at some reviews before I picked that as my choice. Not sure I'm willing to change it though. I really don't want to see the other two.

 

[Jay]

I'm glad my posting career entertains the masses of the mundane.

PS : I finally saw Shawshank Redemption the other night.

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

masses of the mundane.

huh

 

[Steven Soderburgin]

I, for one, cannot wait to read your reaction to the movie.

 

Masses of the Mundane. Fucking GREAT band name!

 

[Philosopher B.]

Hmmm. If I saw any of these I sure woundn't see The Ugly Truth, and I don't have a particular need to see psycho orphans, so I guess that would leave me with G-Force. Shit, the mice look funny, anyhow, and it's got Will Arnett ...

 

Orphan will either be scary or (unintentionally) funny or both, so that'd be my pick.

 

[Jay]

Masses of the Mundane. smurfing GREAT band name!

I opted that we incorporate Masses of the Mundane in some shape or form for Halforums.

 

[Tress]

If I HAD to see one of those three, it would be Ugly Truth. That's not a reflection on any kind of enthusiasm for the movie, but rather it illustrates how I'm even less interested in the other choices. Orphan looks to be generic, boring, and not scary. G-Force seems to be another shallow, mindless offering designed to snare children, who will then drag their parents into the theater. Surprisingly I would rather see an unfunny "rom-com" that manages to offend both sexes at the same time.
Take this whole post with a grain of salt, I'm still in a very bad mood.
