I can think of no worse thing to compare a movie to so it must be bad.

Yes, it's bad. Some people may enjoy it if your a X-Files maniac, but overall, the movie is slow, boring, and uninteresting. The fact that they seemed to talk through most of the movie really killed it, then I didn't know what the whole story was supposed to be about just destroyed it...even more.

There wasn't that much action in the movie, and the little that there was did nothing to make it more interesting.

I know this post has been going on for awhile, but I recently saw the new Batman movie "The Dark Knight"

It was absolutely amazing! I loved every part of it! And the twists during the movie, I couldn't keep my eyes off the screen!

One of the best movies I've ever seen

Glad you liked it, viva!

Thanks for the headsup, Near...I'm not really into X-files. My mom and sister were, but I've been reading most of my life and I love a good story and I'd always figure out the plot before the shows were done so they didn't like me watching X-files with them.

They always seem to have no ending either! It's like the stories are dull...and then whap! The credits start rolling and I'm thinking: What the beans? What's that supposed to mean?

LOL - there was one show where these people were able to make time slow down. They could move at lightning fast speeds because they were exposed to something in this cave. I was talking aloud with mom...if they really could make time slow down and they could move at normal speed in a slowed-world...other laws would still apply. Their skin would burn from the friction of moving from point A to point B, and...

She told me to shush.

I won't be watching X-files then. I'm not a big fan.

Whirly, I have the same problem. I like for shows to be UNpredictable, not PREDICTABLE.

I don't even know the name of the movie last night. My friend rented it and it was sooooo boring! It was about this mob member who went into the witness protection program. I think Burt Reynolds was in it? I got so tired of it, I got on the treadmill and watched some Simpsons on my mediaplayer.

Just googled it. The movie was called "Forget About It". LOL I really did forget about it! It was supposed to be a comedy, but it was gangster humor that I didn't understand.

21 5/10 gummy bears - This movie started out slow...oh, so slow! I almost gave up and shut it off. But then wait! It got a little more interesting. Then it slowed down a bit. And then pow! It got good and stayed good. It's about this kid in college who is asked to become a member of a team that goes to Vegas to gamble. Only they have the better odds, because they know how to "count cards". Supposedly based on a true story. It would have gotten a 10 from me if it started out good, stayed good, and ended good.

Wall-E 8/10. We initially went to watch it for our boys. I think I ended up liking it more than they did. It was awesome!!!!

Whirlwind

da_man - took Baby to see it. I'm sure he didn't understand the whole environmental thing...but that's the key to this movie!!!

The robots speak in one-word sentences and use gestures and such. So baby didn't have to understand the words, he just had to know that there was something going on. He loved it! I did too.

The people on the cruise "ship" reminded me of the people in Walmart. There was an old man with a walker in there the other day that had to struggle it out because there were no more of those mechanical doo-hickey cart-scooters left. While walking around the store, I saw some very overweight people riding these around (one of them was my neighbor and her kid, who is also overweight). I thought...that's too bad.

Then it reminded me of Wall-E.

I know these movies are old but I just saw them again. I haven't seen these in ages!

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory [1971 version] 10/10 - I love this movie. It's great. I prefer it better than the newest one, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I love the umphalumpha (did I spell that right...? :O) song, the original one! It brings back such good memories... I love the singing, too. Seemed like these people had some mighty pretty voices! Much prettier than the ones I hear today.

Sleeping Beauty - 10/10 - Oh, this movie is so beautifully-made and romantic. Disney has done such a lovely job creating such wonderful masterpieces. It has to be my favorite, favorite, favorite Disney movie EVER. I loved it. The artists who drew this had such a good hand. Rose/Aurora's singing voice was absolutely breathtaking! She sounded like some kind of opera queen or something! I wish they made more of these...
