I will not watch him as the Lone Ranger.

I have a feeling this casting will break Boss Radio's hear.

Oh, damn. Did you have to remind me of that? Isn't it bad enough I have to go watch Beverly Hills Chihuahua tomorrow?

I apologize. I just had a laughing fit. I just tried picturing you watching it in some theatre surrounded by big-eyed children. lol.
Ahem.
Okay, serious face now...
I look forward to reading your review.

Alex's Review

I agree about the talking babies thing. Somehow I'm not too creeped out by talking animals at all.

As an aside, kudos to Disney for finally putting a disclaimer at the beginning of an animal movie about the responsibilities of pet ownership and that some breeds are not good choices for everyone-- I'm guessing in response to the backlash they received when shelters and rescue groups were inundated with Dalmatians after the release of the live action 101 Dalmations.

I have an 8yo therefore I had to go see it. The talking animals didn't bother me . It was fine, not great. Fine. (I didn't feel like I wanted to shove hot pokers in my eyes like I did with Shark Boy and Lava Girl) I distracted myself by watching Manolo Cardona (who played the hot "landscaper"):

Yeah, I was going to avoid BHC like the plague, but now I'm thinking of treating myself.

Or maybe I'll wait to Netflix it and just watch the landscaping parts ... while I do my manscaping.

Look at it this way - at least you didn't have to work on it for 10 months.

(Though, I kind of enjoyed the process.)

I make fun but I always go in hoping to be surprised. Sadly the most recent was the wrong kind of surprised. I fully expected Miracle at St. Anna to at least be thought provoking if not necessarily entertaining and Spike Lee didn't even deliver that.

I liked Across the Universe. The extras on the DVD were very interesting too.
