Haven’t seen the first one, but mainly because it didn’t really pike my interest to… Second one? I can’t see it getting good reviews.
As for Valient, I did see that one, and was actually pleasantly surprised by it. Granted, even the trailer for Valient looked better than the one for Space Chimps to me.
I’ve never seen Space Chimps…hides
Don’t. Trust me.
I probably won’t, as I don’t really like many CGI films past Disney, Pixar, and some Blue Sky stuff. This looks exactly like “Fly Me To The Moon”, except that the lead cast consists of primates instead of insects, and that’s a bad sign.
Valiant is a nice film (solely based on the fact that I like pigeons xD) not the best, but still enjoyable. Has a bit… too much fart jokes though. Ugh.
But aside that it’s pretty cool.
They’re making a second one? The first one went completely under the radar, the few who did see it said it was horrible.
Here is a really strange clip I found on YouTube. youtube.com/watch?v=-PEPW95n … re=recentf Based on how rushed this is, you’d think the whole movie will only be a half-hour.
The storyline, also seemed to be even weaker than before from that clip.
I mean at least get the guy to go to some OTHER planet than the one the other three visited (…or something). What is the POINT of him going there anyway? What purpose does it serve for the storyline?
It was already terrible with that ‘cliche villian out for revenge’ story they seemed to have going for them.
Plus… who is that stupid to show their foe around like that?
REALLY?
The fact was I didn’t like the first movie. I guess in retrospect I can forgive the animation since they are not good on cash but its the writing which is worse and they have little excuse for that. The voice acting was also sub-par. But the writing was the worst thing about it. The protaganists were boring to me and I couldn’t care about them (or they were as irritating as all hell) and the antagonist was just… pathetic. His motivations… gah.
I was better off when I had forgotten the first even existed.
The humour also almost completely escapes me. It’s more of a case of “I know they’re trying to be funny but… they’re just not.” It’s not even getting the chuckle of ‘That’s sooo wrong and I shouldn’t be laughing at that.’ It’s just… not funny at all. That’s really it. It doesn’t have anything GOOD going for it. The characters are cardboard cutouts in terms of personality, the animation is lousy (which I could forgive if it wasn’t for everything else), the story itself was awful and couldn’t engage me, the voice acting shoddy…it didn’t even really have any good jokes or humour that I recall. I mean seriously was there anything good about the first movie? At all? And the second movie almost looks set to somehow be even WORSE. I mean as weird as the world they went to is, it was at least more interesting then the actual grey space centre. (But… I didn’t like the world either… it was pretty dull or made no sense or sometimes both. I didn’t feel anything about the monster or the ‘sacrifice’. It was like what would happen if a Sci Fi writer had become depressed and lost the will to even try and world build. After hitting the bottle of course. Repeatedly. With their heads.)
Now that I think more of it, Space Chimps really was worse than Shrek 3.
I just am totally cringing at the thought of this movie. It didn’t need a sequel, I don’t think anyone wanted a sequel. Did the original actually make money?
I love how we’re following this movie, if not just to see how bad it is. XD
And oh wonderful, it seems ol’ Ham hasn’t stopped his sexually harassing ways. 
Here at my local theater, the automaticly put it AK (Audults At Kids Prices)
Then next week it was gone, I don’t think it’s a good call 
HA! That made my day. 
I’m very happy to see it’s not doing well at all.
Haha! Thanks for making my day as well.
But with TS3, the movie is still going strong.
The sesion times are based on how popular the movie is, TS3 is still at like 4th, and S4 is at like 7th
I thought it was ok best part was when they met the girl alien…
Alien:my name is kilowahosayhoha.
Ham: oh great its drunk!
I kinda try and watch any movies i can since i love Film, and theater…
As you said mopar5, that was the only funny line, and I can’t be bothered to rent it

Train wreck syndrome. You just kind of can’t look away.
Oddly I have not encountered this movie in any cinema yet, not here or when I was in America (saw three movies there, Sex and the City 2, Toy Story 3 and the third Twilight movie since another volunteer was a fan, shockingly it wan’t too bad, MUCH better than the first I’d suffered through as well as more interesting).
That line about being drunk sounds vaguely funny, probably a bit more so in context, but still doesn’t seem to be worth my time or money. 
Will be released on DVD in the US October 5th this year. In 3-D… 
I just saw it. It was better than I anticapated, but it wasn’t good.
TAMATER’s Grade ( ): 3.6/10
Haha, it sure didn’t sound good.
I suppose you suspected a 1? I’m glad it stinks, honestly. Don’t know why.
According to Box Office Mojo…
Space Chimps budget: $37 million
Space Chimps worldwide box-office: $64.8 million
According to The-Numbers.com…
Space Chimps US DVD sales: $13.6 million
So, yeah…Space Chimps probably made money.
Still perversely curious about the original, which almost has to be “better” than Vanguard’s previous effort Happily N’Ever After. No interest in Space Chimps 2, though, unless someone points out something worthwhile about it.
