Oceans 12!

Is anyone as excited about this opening this weekend as I am?!

I have the sitter lined up, and tickets pre-bought...I WILL be there on Friday night!

Any word on advance screenings, etc?

Oh yeah I am so there on Friday night. In Newsweek the article said that that it was more style than substance but who is going to see it for the plot? LOL

I'm pumped. I hadn't even seen the remake of Ocean Eleven, but the crew for Ocean Twelve came to Lake Forest to film some scenes on-site, it was really neat. Some of my friends took picutres of the actors and everything!!! So, after finals, I'm going!

Thumbs up

So did anybody see it? I thought it was great. Funnier than the first one.

...and all I have to say is "Julia Roberts"

I liked a lot of the ways they made fun of themselves, and the plot did take second stage to the star power. But, it was a good movie, and a good followup to the original.

Saw it last night.

Yeah the plot was kind of an added bonus. I enjoyed the banter between the actors more than the actual story. Although, the Night Fox's little breakdance/yoga scene through the lazers was really awesome to watch.

And yeah... Julia Roberts. LOL.

Yeah but Ive seen something very similar to that before about 4-5 years ago in Entrapment which ironically starred....Catherine Zeta Jones! I was getting deja vu there.

It was definitely more style than substance, but it was entertaining. I really enjoyed it.

I think I liked the first better, but this one was still mighty entertaining.

And I loved the Bruce Willis cameo.

Definately liked the first one better but still definately good! I was practically crying laughing during the Julia Roberts scene - and I still don't get the Lost in Translation!

Favorite line in the movie: "We could never train a cat that fast!"

Also, I *heart* Don Cheadle. And Scott Caan. And Casey Affleck. There wasn't nearly enough of them in this version.

The thing I love about both movies is that each character/actor has a scene in which they steal the moment away form the last, like in Eleven when Don Cheadle was detonating the pinch, and Bernie Mac was buying the trucks.
