HA you did too! Yeah im goin 2 see that too. been a good summer for moviesOriginally Posted by ironchef
I hate to say it, but I saw both Wall-E (with the kids) and Wanted (with the wife) I had more fun watching Wall-E. I got choked up at the end tOo!!!
it's hard to call it a movie... it's more like a propaganda flick. Usually todays movies will have a subtle lib message to it. This was as subtle as a sledge hammer in a china shop.
Theres alot of truth to it tho
alright well
1) mac references
2) animated
3) robots and such
4) emotional
yeah im in. looks like i gotta find $20 for me and my lady to go...
$10 bucks for a movie? Damn.
I wanna see it too.
yeah i remember when it was cheap to see a movie. dont know why the price skyrocketed tho. Maybe we should start looking into film speculation as much as we are bitchin about gas prices.
no, not really....but everyone is entitled to their own opinion on the movie.
because you are paying for the soaring rate of what actors/actress are working for now, you are also paying for the 100's of geeks who work behind the screen with CGI and animation.
Its still 8.25 in Hiram so I will continue to go there.
Matene is still only 6.50.
i saw it
i enjoyed it
it was worth the money.. I was in Hilton Head and was only $15 for me and the girl, well worth it. First decent movie of the summer. Can't wait to see Dark Knight and Hellboy

wow. good to see all the responses to this movie. i thought i was being gay cause i wanted to see it. now i'm gonna go.
No, you were being gay because you like the taste of nutsack.
I've wanted to see Wall-E since it was first announced. I think it was well done, despite the obvious environmentalist/Luddite message. Definitely recommended for a family flick.
Absinthe makes the farts go Honda.
I'll get it on BluRay I can wait.. also the reason for the rise in Box Office prices, IMO, is due to pirating movies and due to people just waiting for it to go to video... personally I don't find it worth paying $10 for a movie I can't control in the event of needing to go use the restroom emergency call from a friend/ family member..
no, it's basically saying that us american's are big lazy fatass's and that big corporations are bad....well, no **** there....but watch the movie, it does not happen to show any other race or nationality it's basically a punch to americans as a whole....yeah, they say the whole world sucks and all that....but I didn't hear any french or german people or asians, just really pure flat out americans. Corporations are not bad because that's how we are able to buy so many things we like at a reasonable cost...before mom and pop shops ruled because it was the only game in town.
Last I checked, alot of people do stuff for themselves, and solve their own problems, and people do need to be babysat and the babysitters are IE: police, fireman, medic's...For a kids movie it needs to not have such a heavy tone and be more fun...yeah, kids watch it and see robots, and oohs and ahhs...but for a person with half a brain cell can pick up the whole "yeah I get it, the world is in bad shape and it's going to be one huge trash pile up" but they made sure to hammer that point in quite well.
Another kid flick, Kung Fu Panda....it has a underlying message but a good one that isn't beaten to death into you...
The reason its beat to death is so the younger kids with less than half a brain cell can pick up the message too. You forget, the movie was intended for them
that movie was a great movie, i loved it. and hell maybe they didnt have any other nationalities in there besides american because of how fuked up our health and medical systems are compared the the rest of the world.

I know where that is. I might just start goin there from now on. might be worth the drive if i can save 2 bucks on a ticket. I was told back when i was in the business that the theater doesnt see the price of a ticket, that all their money was made in concessions. Now that i see that hiram can charge 8.50 and Barrett Pkwy can charge 10 bucks, im thinkin differently
oh wow, how about Mexico, umm, pretty much all of South America, Africa, and don't even get me started in Europe....yeah, they are in so much better shape than America.

Actually, the message is intended for the parents of the kids....producers and writers know who are taking these kids to the movies and make sure they see it...
....hence why there is always some adult humor in Disney/Pixar movies
funny and entertaining movie.
It was a great movie with or without the "think green" message. Very pro-Apple and anti-Wal-Mart but it wasn't really enough to bother me. A fun adventure movie and very pleasing visually. The backgrounds alone were phenominal. Highly recommended.
you do realize the ties btw pixar and steve jobs right?It was a great movie with or without the "think green" message. Very pro-Apple and anti-Wal-Mart but it wasn't really enough to bother me.

I've heard of it, but never familiarized myself with the relationship. Either way, the Apple placements were rather obnoxious IMO and completely unnecessary.
well steve owned pixar until it was bought out by disney...and currently he's the biggest individual shareholder in disney and is on their board of directors so...

That was one of the things I liked most about it. The lack of dialogue between the main characters allowed you to focus more on what they were doing, rather than what they were saying. I actually heard parents complaining that the characters didn't speak enough.
I'm just not a fan of subliminally marketing things to kids so that you'll sell more product.
"Mommy, if we get a computer can we get an Apple? Wall-E was an Apple so they must be the bestest!"
commonly known fact: many parents are idiots, who will raise little idiots, who will unfortunately become idiot parents themselves...talk about a vicious cycle huh?That was one of the things I liked most about it.

That'd be a lot funnier if it wasn't true.
commonly known fact: most kids are stupid, many will remain stupid and someday have more stupid kids....starting to hate vicious circles? yes, yes you are.I'm just not a fan of subliminally marketing things to kids so that you'll sell more product.
