Too bad Cabin in the Woods isn't coming out until January @_@ *dies*

I haven't been to the movies in a loooooooooooooong time, so I don't really know too much about what is coming out to make a decision on what movies I'm looking forward to :\ (if any)


Ugh I just looked up the January date. Jeez that's a long way away.

And yeah going to the movies is so rare for me these days. Hollywood really seems to be getting worse and worse. I heard they're making a movie out of ErcotorSet toys. Really? How is that a movie? They're just like Legos, right? Where's the story there? Awful.

Like shooting fish in a barrel I bet.

On thing I'm always wondering is why don't they film stuff back to back? Like with Spiderman they knew the sequels were going to be box office gold. So, just film two movies back to make and release them over the next three years. That gives the actors time to do some other stuff then bring them in and film a couple more.

Heck Lord of the Rings filmed all three at once, right? That was a cash cow. Why not learn from them?

Because Hollywood doesn't learn from anything? :P Seriously, they're REmaking so much shit it's like "wow guys, why not bring in new writers instead of doing the same thing...again?"

We were talking about remakes in class the other day XD I have a couple of youngin's in my class who haven't seen any movies with a release date prior to like 1993. It hurts my heart. The Producers, Real Genius, Kelly's Heroes, name the movie name the decade, they were like "what's that?"

I didn't really like Groundhog Day...or What About Bob? I find them slightly funnier years later. Stripes was a favorite of mine when I was a teenager, though.

I'm gobsmacked when the young folk look all blank and clueless when I mention Ferris Bueller. What's the world coming to?

As for recent or upcoming movies? Don't really know much of what is out there. I still haven't seen Avatar and probably won't. I just watched Blood Diamond the other night and was like 'this should be nominated for an Oscar.' Did a little looking...it was...in 2007. :D

If you've saw the movie 'Zombieland' you'll probably remember they made a joke out of how totally wrong it is to not know Bill Murry and to have not seen Ghostbusters. The very few people in that category should receive government funding to go out and buy the DVD or something.

If you're into special effects, then you should see it. If not, you aren't missing anything. The story feels like it's written by a 5 year old. By that I mean it's all incredibly straight forward and predictable.

I never actually saw the movie. I caught part of the end on cable once and saw some chick saying "I'll never let go" to Leo who was in icy water and she was floating on a board or something. Bunch of emotional music played and then she let go. wtf? What a bitch to lie to the dude and then drown him in icy water.

I saw it once in the theater when it came out. Unfortunately one of the girls I saw it with started crying as soon as the thing hit the iceberg and those of you who saw it know that's pretty much just the half way mark...

The other girls behind us laughed at her, the other girl (my friend, cry miss cryer pants was not my friend in fact I didn't really like her) kept giving them evil glares.


That is my experience with Titanic.

I admit I used to be a teeny bopper and saw it for Leo.

My how things have changed. But at least I got it out of my system!

We saw it in the theater when I was nine. I have yet to rationalize the *why* as it was dramatic, inevitably depressing, and I was bored to tears (I'm not a huge fan of dramas).

The one laugh I got out of the experience was when we were getting our seats before lights down and dad announced to half the theater "The boat sinks." One guy a couple of rows down turned around and deadpanned "Aw, come on, you RUINED it!"

There a dozens of films that are about the sinking or make it part of the film. The first I remember about the sinking is "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" with Debbie Reynolds. A lot more entertaining.

Okay, I kinda liked the movie leading up to the realization that the ship is done for. It is honestly a good period piece that warps and breaks the riveted steel sheets of history a bit.

I love Sharpes Rifles. there is no way the show is historically accurate. But it is a fun period piece with violence and adventure and romance.

Yeah, I'm kind of a softy.

bah work killed my spirit.

I swear this company should just give up. Back when I was hired they had "morale events". Each department or a group of departments had a budget to do small stuff like go bowling for an afternoon.

That budget has been shrinking and shrinking. From what I hear it's zero these days. Which sure seems to be true, because we just got an email for a morale event. Join us for a moive and get together. Pay for your own movie ticket and then go across the street to a restaurant where you can pay for whatever you want. So....you made the plans and that's it? Wonderful. OK I'll give them a little credit for it being planned for a Friday at 2:30. So at least we can get away from the office.

Anyway to convert this to a ponder do you guys think half assed things like this are actually worse than nothing at all? Personally I do. To me they're just pointing a big neon sign at the fact that morale isn't worth anything to them. I guess I never expected morale events in the first place, but when you start out paying for them you set a precedent.

Plus there's no way I'd pay to see this movie. "How to train your dragon"? I had to go to imdb to even find out what it was. Kind of annoying that they choose an animated movie just to be as safe as possible. This isn't a family event. We're all adults. How about an adult movie? Kids movie = No thanks.

I don't really have a problem with events like that for work. I mean whats the difference between going out with your work friends after work to a movie and dinner like what you described?

Plus anytime my old work did a "gathering" thing it was never "out" it was always in a conference room with food stuffs. But it was still at work. I think it would be sort of fun to see how people are outside the office.

And while I have no plans to see "How To Train Your Dragon" there are a bunch of kid movies I liked that I saw at the theaters like "Monsters vs Aliens" and I wanted to see the re-release of "Toy Story" in 3D.

I of course am talking about jobs where I actually liked the people I work with. Maybe if I didn't I'd feel differently?

I agree with you, Zeek. If precedent was company-paid fun...it should remain company paid fun. If economic times means the company can't pay anymore, they should acknowledge that. A memo (did you get the memo?) stating that while the company can no longer financially sponsor these morale events, they are still encouraged is a great idea and would alleviate some of the bitterness.

My company did something similar a number of years back, abolishing the company picnic. Now, this was before the current financial climate and we were told that the money set aside for the picnic would be distributed in different way. Well, it was the first year but hasn't been in successive years. Like many companies, they pocket the savings without passing it on (yes...I'm a little bitter that I run what was a four person department with two people and I didn't get a raise. I'm savings them tens of thousands a year, but nothing has gotten passed along.)

BTW, I like the animated movies...but would never pay to see one in the theater. Ever. They just aren't my cop 'o' tea...'course I do like Titanic. ;)

Them choosing the movie for us is the first issue. The fact that I work with a bunch of socially awkward nerds is another issue. Now I'm not saying I'm some social dynamo either, but I wouldn't choose to be in a group of friends consisting just of people like me.

I like some animated movies, but I need to be in the right mood in the first place. If I'm already in a bad mood then their cheery outlook on everything is just going to make me boil with zeekrage.

I'm betting that this one person I know was a part of the planning team for this. I'm debating whether I want to run into her sometime soon so I can play dumb and rip on the idea with her or if I don't want to run into her cause it might hurt her feelings. I'd hope she'd end up saying "yeah unfortunately we've got no money and were told we had to plan something...I was on the team and that's really the best we could come up with. I'd like to say I could then add some constructive criticism, but the best I can come up with is "if the movie isn't your cup of tea then just take the afternoon off". I'm sure they don't want an empty theater though.

Yeah half assed sucks. See I think it'd be better for morale if you do stuff like extra time off in recognition for special service or such. Or just a thanks for working hard for us bonus time off.

My boss does a work at home today thing for us and it really makes us willing to put up with a lot

NV kinda squee that you liked Sharp's rifles( I made him watch them as I adore them... wildly historically warped as they are based on a series of books , but still joyous fun)

Pretty much the same as you...apparently. I actually had a harder time with the change yesterday. I woke up and old 7am, new 8, but wanted to sleep in. When I woke up again at old 9, new 10, I felt frantic and rushed. I didn't get to the barn until new 11, which is really late and makes me feel the pressure. I like to be on my way home by 2 (old or new) but taking care of both horses is a 5 hour undertaking. Blech. The day was over SOOOOOO fast. I ate dinner at like 8:30.

I've been caught.

I eat "meals" on Sat and Sunday night...if you can call them that. Those are my big cheat nights when I get to eat the crap I won't let myself have during the week. I had Taco Bell last night...at 8:30.

On a sad note, one of my favorite cheat spots that has amazing tri-tip nachos, burned down about 2 weeks ago. I drive by its charred hollow shell and ...and then for the fish that lived in the GINORMOUS fish tank (walls were about 1" thick...that's how huge it was). You can see the remains of the tank and just know those little suckers went out in a blaze of not-quite glory.

I've heard before that fish don't feel pain. So, maybe they were ok with it. Sadly I can't really believe that's true. Pain is a good thing for the most part. Otherwise how would fish learn what to avoid?
