Nope, no sarcasm @ all. Did not see Pluto Nash @ all. I run hot and cold on Eddie Murphy, but I think this one will be an enjoyable flick. It's my $$ + my time = See what I want to see.

CT4, you are not alone. I, ClassyLady, did not enjoy The Matrix. I wasted two hours of my life that I will never get back on that nonsense. If I had seen it in the theaters, I would have been livid.

You ain't have to quote my dude!! lol
Frat, I don't really get into sci-fi flicks, if you want to know the truth. But I really fell in love with The Matrix. I love everything about it!!
I noticed that there are a few movies on this thread that I thoroughly enjoyed. It reminds me of an Inroads workshop we went to in Pre-Collegiate. This dude was talkin' about how "everyone has preferences." I wish y'all coulda been there, it was really funny. That was 12 years ago (dang) and we STILL use that in conversation.
Everyone has preferences...
Oh, and N4L, I'll PM you about Mulholland Drive. Liked that one, too! Although towards the end, I was like WTF??? We had to get on the internet to get the explanation.

I'm with all of you on Vanilla Sky. You're better off renting the original film that it was based on - Abre Los Ojos. THAT was a good movie!
Stealing Harvard was just poor. Tom Green was funny for two seconds then he just got on my nerves. And the premise does NOT work. This girl has got financial aid coming but they still need 33,000? So they gave her 300 bucks for books? Harvard? THey have about the biggest federal grant ever! I give them credit on the fin aid tip- I have heard no complaints from Harvard headz about their money situation. Oh well.
The Ring. THe movie was scary for all of fifteen minutes that I ahd to sit through two long boring hors to get through. IT was like Sixth Sense Redux. Speaking of which....
Sixth Sense - wasn't scared. wasn't that interested either.
Blair Witch. THis movie could only have been interesting if you thought it was real or something. Otherwise it was just tedious.
See IMO movies that are really BAD can be njoyable simply because they're amusingly awful. I can deal with that. Movies that are just long and boring though.... I can't take.
Oh and in closing, I am on the Matrix train! I can't WAIT to see Jada kick arse in the sequel!

(indicates dates I have seen these movies - cause I still have the ticket stubs)
Hav Plenty (6/19/98) SHOOT! It needs plenty.
Kingdom Come (6/9/01) BORING AS ALL GET OUT
Nothing But Trouble (2/17/91) Dry plot
Gone Fishin' (5/30/97) BORING
Godzilla (5/22/98) Overrated
Baby Boy (6/29/01) The only scene I remember was the "porno" scene
B.A.P.S (3/29/97) I guess Halle needed the $
Turbulence (1/11/97) I love airplane movies but this one was loehme!
Waiting to Exhale (12/23/95) Those wimmens can keep on waiting
Metro (2/16/97) BORING
Sprung (5/18/97) 1st 45 minutes was good and the plot went down the toilet VERY quickly thereafter.
Belly (11/15/98) BORING
Ringmaster (12/5/98) Anyways.....
Speed 2: Cruise Control (6/13/99) Again another disaster-esque flick with a predictable plot.
Rage in Harlem (6/1/91) I remember Robin Givens trying to show off her bony skeleton body but not much else.
Two Can Play That Game (10/6/01) The only one who got played was me for seeing this mess

CT4 please don't forget my membership. I don't know if that movie was really long, or was I just unintrested????But if I get in the club I need to hold an office, because I was actually talking my brothers friends out of paying $7.75 to go and just give me the money.
