Movies - both new and old

My mom got a free rental, so she rented The Adventures of TinTin. I heard good reviews about it, so I’m excited to see it.

It’s so great!!

I still want to see that. I’ll have to hire it some time.

I saw The Hunger Games yesterday and although it wasn’t perfect, I quite enjoyed it. A really amazing cinematic experience. As a fan of the books I was pleased by the lack of big changes too. It’s a very true adaption. :slight_smile:

Yay! I actually read the book yesterday.

Yay!! high-five

Since EVERYONE’S been making a huge deal about the Hunger Games, I’m not going to see it until it gets to the dollar theater…I haven’t read the books, and I don’t plan on doing so–I refuse to be a slave to conformity.

What do you mean by conformity?

Do you conform to non-conformity? Ohhh, this hurts my brain.

Hmmm…I don’t really know…I’m not exactly a “hipster,” so no. It’s just the Hunger Games.

Lol, no one is making you read them, but that’s not exactly a good attitude to have about it. :unamused:
Hope you enjoy it, anyway.

Reminds me of a South Park quote, that goes along these lines.

“The world is full of conformists. If you want to be a non-conformist like us, all you have to do is dress like we do, listen to the same music we do, and talk the way we do.”

^ Haha!

I understand being annoyed by something that’s hyped by everyone and you can’t go without hearing about, but “refuse to be a slave to conformity” is a bit too extreme when it comes to THG. I’ve read the books and was excited to see the movie this weekend, but I would hardly call myself a “slave to conformity.” I would save that choice of words for a book about a dystopian society where people have no free will and their minds are controlled or something. :laughing:

Tin Tin was pretty good. I’m not much of an action movie person, but I still liked it.

I’m a bit surprise with how well Mirror Mirror is doing so far. I thought it looked like a silly spoof of Snow White. Ah well, to each is their own.

Oh no. I was afraid the new SW movies would do well. :frowning:

I’m waiting for the reviews. It certainly seemed silly, but there are a few critics on RT and most are positive so far.

I was thinking that movie would probably flop. I’m pretty surprised to hear this!

IV: Why are you worried? Just curious.

I want to see that movie, mostly because two guys in it are in another show I like to watch.

Well it’s still too early in the game to see. Only 6 or 7 reviews I think.
