well obviously...they are worthy in MY opinion.....

...worthy of the Bardock Cup, perhaps?

I have to say your post today are rather shallow and pedantic today.....

If I can justify my shallowness, it’s been a long and grueling week at work, it’s 105 degrees here, I’ve been on crutches for 2 months, and my medication just ran out. I’m doing the best I can here.

And your Pedanticness?

Guys, avoid "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" like the plague. I implore you.

AHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

I rented Donnie Darko finally, now I'll get to see what all the fuss is about.

Why? I am not sure if I saw the original but really the remake can't be as bad as ROTS and I watched that twice....

It can be, trust me.

Hmm and why? What's so terrible aboot it?

You mean aside from ethnic Oompa Loompas with ponytails, and neon colored shiny bodysuits? Not considering Johnny Depp's stiff performance, flat jokes, immature portrayal, paedophilic behavior? Ignorning the fact the the title is "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", while the movie is obsessed with Wonka's childhood, relegating Charlie to a set of bookends for the movie? Brushing off the consensus that a remake was totally unnecessary, this furthur proving such? Not taking into account that the moral of the movie is contrived, and obvious, and there's no mystery like there was in the original? Lastly, that this is movie is only suitable for people below age 5?

Absolutely nothing.

Oh ok...then I will totally miss the sarcasm in your post and get my own impression....but so awful....that's gonna be fun....so basically what you are saying is if I like to keep my friends I shouldn*t convince them to watch that movie with me....or at all...

I dont know if i am even going to bother watching Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, it looks absolute tosh.

Yeah..or Tesh..as in John Tesh..because he's crap, too. So, whichever. I hate them both.

A friend from work went to see it with her Nephew who is only a toddler and even he got fed up half way through it.

It must really blow.

Saw a commercial for a movie that might be worth seeing. Since I saw the trailer, Four Brothers was definately going to be worth a visit from us to the movies. Unless, of course, it was rated PG-13. But since they gave it a nice, realistic R-rating, I'm there.

Ditto. I'm a big fan of virtually everything Mark Wahlberg has been in. Rock Star, Three Kings, I Heart Huckabees, The Italian Job, etc.

And The Perfect Storm. Hell, he was even good in the Good Vibrations music video with the Funky Bunch!

Alison loooooooves "The Perfect Storm", as do I. As for Marky Mark..I sometimes wonder how he reacts when he gets royalty checks for commercials that use "Good Vibrations".

"Yo! $25 dollas!"
