College Road Trip

dzfan · #1 03-04-2008, 06:13 PM

I noticed that the lead girl (Raven Symone) in this movie wants to go to Georgetown, and her dad (Martin Lawrence) decides to take her on a road trip to see other schools, so I'm interested to see where else and if they filmed any of it on real campuses. Plus, I think it looks pretty funny...kinda reminds me of my dad during my college search...only wanted the best for me but got. on. my. nerves.

How pathetic is it that I am 25 and want to go see that movie? I think it looks cute. My best friend from H.S. said she absolutely hates Raven Symone....I don't know why-I think she is really talented...Anyone else wanna' go see the movie???

This movie should only be 15 minutes long. There's no need to visit other schools.

lol

Come on. Are you trying to tell me that she shouldn't at least make a trip to the Mecca? Howard University. All day. Every day.
Bison! You Know!

I do kinda want to go see the movie though. Raven has done a good job of maintaining a fan base. Who'd have thought she's survive being a child star and turn out to be a successful adult. In my opinion, far too many child stars are ruined by the early fame.

She can visit Howard during probate season like I did.

I just want to see it b/c it has Georgetown and see I'm up in DC now (like everyone else in this thread), I figured it'd be fun.

They filmed part of it down the street from me at The Taft School. They were there for 10 days or so.

I have a few years on you and I'd like to see this film. Raven Symone has done well. Too bad you don't see her and her success plastered all over the news. It just goes to show you that, good/positive news does not go over well.

I plan to see it next weekend along with Horton Hears a Hoo.

Oh man, I want to see Horton Hears a Hoo too! I still don't understand why we don't have children's writers like Dr. Seuss anymore. Although it's probably the same reason Raven doesn't get the publicity deserves. Like it was said before, America just doesn't want good news.

i took my little sister and 2 of her friends to go see it and i was DREADING this movie. it actually turned out to be a really cute movie, especially some of the incidents that martin lawerence and raven get into.

and donny (sp??) osmond OMG he's hilarious in this movie as well as the girl who plays his daughter

my absolute favorite scenes though *not to give anything away* are the car trip with osmond, when raven's character moves into her dorm, and the very last scene and what donny osmond does... hahahahahahahaha

my all time favorite movie that just recently came out though was 27 dresses... i loved the bar scene and you can take me to a movie that has james marsden in it ANYDAY!!!!

I haven't seen it yet but thank you for the review - I'm going to see it for sure now. That's funny that DO is so hilarious in this, I never would've expected it from him!
