I honestly thought there was a problem with my screen when that glare wouldn't go away.

but the movie seems alright. Will probably go see it anyways.

I just saw this movie, I thought it was great. But I don't get one thing, he said there was lens flare, I didn't see any lens flare at all. (Also don't do jokes like that again, I almost felt like my computer was failing)
The only REAL down side to the entire movie was the ending. It wasn't what I'd expect and it felt like it was just 'there'. The military guys were all there and not a single one fired at the alien, you'd think there was one guy who goes, "WHAT THE FUCK is that THING!?" and fires at it.

Other than that, it was a great movie. Can't wait for it on blu-ray.

So it pretty much is an E.T. tribute then, I was hoping that wasn't going to happen. Just going by the trailer it really felt like a Spielberg movie, and while that's not a bad thing, I'm gonna wait a bit before I see it now.

Also, that wasn't funny, I seriously thought my monitor was going to hell, and I have a laptop!

Also also, I do believe I'm going to watch Kung Pow again, I love that movie!

"This is basically a test to see if pandering nostalgia works on me."
Well you did Like Scott Pilgrim.
Also; what is it with you and the Tanooki suit? The Feather Cape was basically better in every way.

JJ Abrams is an exploitation filmmaker. He can't make a good movie, but he can make a half-decent movie. So he always focuses his movies on things that people love irrationally; Star Trek, building-sized monsters tearing shit up, little kids, whatever.

Emmirich has got to be one of the few people in hollywood more hollow and insubstantial than JJ Abrams... Godzilla anyone?

Really Bob, you are going to put distractions in all your videos now.

Anyway, on topic this really does not tell me whether I should see the film or not, 'you might like it, you might not' is really starting to get on my nerves.

And also, I like the reverse branching story thing, it seems like a neat little finish to a film.

JJ Abrams being lazy with supernatural mystery? I'm not surprised. This was only getting hype from the Spielberg nostalgia, but you've gotta do more than the concept. I don't get the Abrams geek hype, Alias and Fringe just aren't on the level of similar geek darling, Joss Whedon's works.

Why the fuck do you beep your fucks when fucking Yahtzee doesn't fucking do it?
Because he doesn't wanna copy Yahtzee.

That was the first time I heard the WiiU joke. And I watched Kung Pow for the first time 3 days ago which makes it even more hilarious.

I never thought about watching Super 8, so your review only made me feel like I won't miss out on something really good.

Is this where I point out that there is zero f**king possibility that that pick up truck could have derailed the train? I mean... 8 cars flattened by trains in the states every day, haven't heard of a train crash in yeeaaars...
