    The Big Picture: Destined for Disappointment, Part 1

    I think my problem with adding it to some of the movies is that it's not really needed - the TMNT are GIANT MUTANT TURTLES, and April O'Neil is a reporter. Or scientist, depends. If Hannibal can gender-bend and update Freddie Lounds from Phillip S. Hoffman to the red-head playing her now, or if...

    Escape to the Movies: Star Trek: Into Darkness

    Ok, now that I saw it and know the spoilers, I will say this: It was good. It was not as bad as you made it sound. I was prepared to have a long rant ready, but I realized that what I said before was spot-on. You don't like Abrams. You hate Abrams and the new Star Trek for doing stuff that your...

    Escape to the Movies: Star Trek: Into Darkness

    I know MovieBob has a problem with Abrams and his direction. I personally like it because non-Star Trek fans tend to get into the movie, and as a fan of the original series, I personally liked the reboots. Even the semi-forced kid!Kirk and car scene in the first one. Not because it was just...

    The Big Picture: MovieBob: FAQ

    Yays to MST3K and good beer! Also, baking and cooking are the most awesome things ever and anyone who says otherwise will answer to ME. Or have to forgo brownies, cookies, chicken, bread...the list goes on. Better to just answer to someone else. OH, possibly a non-faq, but I'll put it up...

    The Big Picture: Magneto Was Right

    I do agree that the idea of being smarter always gets people picked on...though I will admit the 'nerds' or 'different' people were always the ones who you NEVER PISSED OFF in some situations (like the ITs who ensure there's e-mail and internet). And I'd be on Magneto's team. He's...

    Escape to the Movies: Special: The Day After

    I do agree that "The Birds" is pretty interesting as far as 'holy crap what is going on?' end of the world thing, but it's Hitchcock and he took 'holy crap what's going on?' and turned it into a high art. As for the Apocalypse, I would agree it's the whole 'what will you do' but also it's the...

    Escape to the Movies: The A-Team

    I loved it when I saw it, and will admit that it did capture the parts with the Armed Services quite well (which, as a Navy Vet, I loved just as much). It was a great matinee movie and I'm glad it was done so well.

    Books that weren't all that good.

    Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Dafoe (sp?) and Dune Messiah by Frank Herbert. Don't get me wrong either, I love reading at times, and yes some of these get boring, but those two...URGH. I loved Dune and felt that when you're able to skip half the story and STILL have a good idea of what was going...

    Escape to the Movies: Sherlock Holmes

    I agree on the 'one of the best Watsons' comment, because WOW. I will admit that Jeremy Brett did a great Holmes and also played him to the OCD and mildly bipolar factor, plus he just looked the part. I think him and Downey Jr. are big contenders, in the world of Sherlockania (...I'm new at the...

    Escape to the Movies: Ninja Assassin

    I liked the Giving Tree...more for the fact that I didn't look for a reason behind it. It was about someone being selfish and someone who cared for them despite that. OMG, THE TREE IS A PARENT!!!! ...and yeah, the whole ninja thing is only fun in some places, but I doubt using it like this...

    Escape to the Movies: The Road

    You mean like the evil sin that is "All the Pretty Horses" movie? *shudder* I think because "No Country for Old Men" did so well is why a lot of people think "The Road" and others will do as well. In truth, it's mainly the casting... ...plus Cormac doesn't exactly do story other then a sudden...

    Escape to the Movies: Paranormal Activity

    I agree on the "Saw" thing...one or two is good, three or four is pushing it, but SIX? I recently saw only SOME of Saw V and I disliked it, though I enjoyed what I saw of the first one. and now I think I know what I'll go see as far as a scary movie...if I can convince my friend to go as well...
