Because of some incompetent projectionist who put something in front of the projector for the last 10 minutes of Get Smart, I now hold an Apology Pass which lets me see any movie - at any time - whether or not the movie allows passes.

I cannot wait for The Dark Knight.

Yeah, that happened to us once. There was some hair or something on the screen for a few minutes, so we got a "golden ticket" to a free flick. :up:

I look forward to seeing both of those...though my wife has already told me she's not thrilled about Dark Knight.
Best regards,

Batman Begins was the best recent superhero movie, IMO. (I haven't seen Iron Man yet).

Iron Man wins out.  Its just alot of fun.  Incredible Hulk was also very good.

I'm hoping to see Wall-E tomorrow.  I wasn't really excited about it... but it is Pixar.  Now that Rotten Tomatoes is giving it 98% fresh I'm excited.  :)

Batman Begins was just deeper than most superhero movies. And a little dark. Is Incredible Hulk a sequel or independent of the other "Hulk" movie that came out a few years back?

Pixar still hasn't done much wrong in my book (Cars and Monsters, Inc. were my least favorites). I'm hoping that once they get big(ger) they won't sell out to Disney (in an ideological sense). They are slated to release quite a few movies in the next few years.

Incredible Hulk is independent from the "Hulk" of 5 years ago.  I just found it more enjoyable all around than its predecessor.  Again not on the same level as Iron Man, BBegins etc, but still a good view.

Pixar ftw!

pixar is amazing...they just keep getting better...as long as they still original they should be fine.

BBegins is awesome...and though this new one seems more creepy still good...
I saw the birds yesterday ;)

Hitchcock was a genius. A mad genius, but a genius nonetheless.

I'm gonna be honest. I didn't like The Birds. I saw Rear Window and loved it, but The Birds... meh. Liked the ending, but other than that, not so much.

Want to see WALL-E, and Dark Knight is going to be amazing. Iron Man gave BBegins a run for it's money, too. I dunno which I like better. BBegins is pretty deep. Heck, despite being a superhero pulp popular movie, it still managed to be a 'great.' Just read an article on Yahoo that claims that, after seeing a press screening, Ledger's performance as Joker is even more brilliant than expected.
Forget it. I'm not arguing with the computer anymore to try to get the sig I want....

Alright. sorry to dredge up an old topic, but I just saw Get Smart, and loved it.

Okay, yeah, that's all I got.

Loved Wall-E, going to see Hellboy II hopefully this weekend.  Geez so many good movies this summer.   :D

Dark Knight is already getting rave reviews.  One reviewer said its right up there with all the best crime flicks out there (The Untouchables, The Departed...).  Can't wait.  :popcorn:
