This has turned into a thread about Spelling/Grammar and my apparent deficiencies in this area.

Posting "to good" was part of the game. "to" rather than "too" and "good" rather than "well".

You will notice the "unharder to spell good" comment from Gn2Dlnd who gets the concept.

Please try and keep up. Thanks.

I can't mojo Moonliner for ALL the wicked burns he's inflicting here...

So I saw the movie and I was very offended by how it kept me in a bored and relentless stupor after the first 15 minutes. The only time I felt my heart accelerate after those first fifteen minutes was when I left the theater as fast as humanly possible without knocking down any Dakota Fanning look-a-likes in my desire to be away and not bored anymore.

Seamless, beautiful CGI, but the acting! The horrible acting!!!!! Wide-eyed eyes full of TEARS acting from everyone! And, my God, I loved Bob Roberts, Bull Durham and The Shawshank Redemption, so will someone please tell me when Tim Robbins lost his ability to act well, because I thought he was crap in Mystic River, as well. All he does these days is open his eyes wide and look insane. Good actor gone BAD. My favorite part was the abrupt ending. Oh, that made me smile and laugh, partially because it was campy and like the old movie I remember, and partly because I was just so GLAD my ordeal had ended.

Miranda Otto, YOU deserve better. WHAT were you thinking? Working with Spielberg could NOT have been worth it. For shame, Miranda. FOR SHAME!

To the young beautiful gentleman playing Tom Cruise's son, SHUT YOU PIE HOLE AND JUST STAND THERE LOOKING BEAUTIFUL. "I have to see. Let me go. I have to see." See WHAT? Fiery Napalm Death Part Deaux? A Machine As It Stomps Your Stupid Face Dead? Then again, Cutie Pie, I'm with you. If *I* were stuck in a craptacularly boring spectacle, I too would be begging to leave, "I have to see a better movie. Please, I can go see Howl's Moving Castle again, even if it was a poor adaptation of a wonderful novel. Please. Anything....but this....Let me go."

Also:

Dear Tom Cruise,

Stop wearing your teenager's jeans. Or maybe those belonged to Katie.

Love,
Audra, who still loves you in Magnolia, no matter HOW insano you've become.

Pluses?

I did get to see the trailers for Elizabethtown and, even better, King Kong, which looks awesome.

You see, that was some brilliant editing, that was originally an out take, until they saw how naturally he was acting, so they just seamlessly cut out the rest after "I have to see," in the original outtake the dialogue was "I have to see about getting a part in another movie. Let me go. I have to see about this other offer." Brilliant editing Mr. Spielberg and company.

More like another tv show. He's *clearly* meant for a WB show. Let me suggest Everwood so I can see him again with fewer expectations. He can date Amy. She's very pretty. Their children would be stunning.

[Gn2Dlnd]

Didn't you keep expecting him and Crazy Tom to start making out?

[Eliza Hodgkins 1812]

No. But I would have liked the movie a lot more if that had happened.

Do you know what gang? I liked WotW. I liked it quite a bit. It had some flaws and some things I would have liked to see done differently, butwhatareyougoingtodo? The first forty five minutes were as intense as anything I have seen lately. Tell you what -- I even liked the ending. How about them apples?

Tref says, check it out.
