After a night's sleep, I liked it. 2.5/5 TRON Legacy 3D Cinema Rocky Road Baskin Robins Sugar Popcorn Diet Coke This was my second outing with this film for Stageman's 40th, and was a chance to take Sarah. I loved it even more the 2nd time, Bio digital Jazz Man The new Tinkerbell Movie (can't remember the name) Cinemagique Coffee It was not as bad as I feared. The kids loved it, and in the main, I enjoyed it. Princess and the Frog Cinemagique Coffee 3rd time seeing it, great songs, some nice animation, but pretty forgettable IMHO. Fun if you have time. The kids like it.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Where the Wild Things Are Sky Movies Chilli Cheese, Chorizo, pickle and fresh bread Hmmmmm, interesting. Sarah and I are not sure if we liked it or not. Mikey loved it. Jess started playing 15 minutes into it.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Oh, I meant to add some: Alpha and Omega, cinema birthday party - ok but do not bother unless it is free. Actually, maybe don't bother at all. Clash of the Titans (the new one on Sky Movies) - hmmmm, it is not really a remake of the old one (which I loved), nor is it a new version of the story as told by Homer. But it is a fun adventure movie if watched in that spirit. Diary of a Wimpy Kid (DVD)- this is the first Astroboy, Sky Movies - OMG this was excellent, so much so we watched it twice. Most enjoyable animated feature in a long time, with great heart. More interesting than most of what the mouse has offered since Eisner left. Dispicable Me, DVD. OMG this was soooo funny, so much fun and a lot of heart. We all loved it! Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back - Sky Movies. Ok, I have been meaning to watch this for years. It is very crass, but I haven't laughed so much at a movie in years. I loved it and hated it at the same time, but mostly loved it.

Originally Posted By Labuda Wow, this makes me realize I haven't done much movie-watching lately... I need to fix that! Oh, but wait... I saw ummmmmmmm Just Go With It. Alamo Drafthouse dinner was as usual their Godfather pizza and a Coke. Mike had chicken strips and an Italian soda. Good movie - my buddy Mike chose seeing that as what he wanted for his birthday, so I went ahead and took him, though I'd been hoping he'd want a steak dinner like last year. Rats on that front, but turns out that it was actually nowhere near as bad as I thought. If you just go in wanting to see a cute, predictable rom-com, then it's a fun movie! It also ends up fun if you go in with VERY low expectations. hehe Now, if someone can please explain to me why it is that when Mike & I go to the movies, I choose stuff like A-Team and The Expendables and HE chooses stuff like this, I'll be quite appreciative.

I felt this movie (and to a lesser extent Speed Racer) did an excellent job of transferring my nostalgia towards the Old Cartoons to the big screen. >Alamo Drafthouse< I want to go to the Buttnumathon there at some point. Latest movies I saw... The Social Network I hated this movie, and it doesn't help that I can't stand Eisenberg more than I can stand the real Zuckerberg. Exit Through the Gift Shop I really enjoyed this movie, but I'm a sucker for Banksy. I recommend it though.
Originally Posted By Labuda Longhorn - is the Buttnumbathon done at the Ritz location, or elsewhere? I've not heard of it before...but imagine it's something like 12 hours or so of movies.
Originally Posted By Longhorn12 It changes locations a lot the first couple of years it was downtown then it moved to the South Lamar and now I think it's at the Ritz location It's a 24 hour movie festival for Harry Knowles (ain't it cool news) Birthday. But it's crazy hard to get into. There are usually around 10,000 applications to get in.
Originally Posted By Labuda Ah, ok. Yeah, seems like that would be a popular event. I wonder if my brother knowing Harry would help... Oh, and wow, I just realized I watched a movie yesterday afternoon: A Simple Man recorded off Showtime water WOW. No WONDER Colin Firth was nominated for Best Actor last year. This was a wonderful film all around!
