This probably should have been straight to DVD.  |  IP: Logged Darryl Spicer Film God Posts: 3250 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 01-27-2007 12:44 AM                    We sold out one of our evening shows today almost 300 people. I was suprised to see that.  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 01-27-2007 07:03 AM                     Sold out two shows, but this movie is a pile of... you get the point. Nothing fresh, nothing original. Just another money-grab that will pass in that respect. I hated it.  |  IP: Logged Don Anderson Master Film Handler Posts: 312 From: West Bend, WI, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-27-2007 11:08 AM                     Junk. Judging from the age bracket that is coming to see it, it is obvious that their brains are not quite fully developed. Ya gotta hate those pre-teeners. I found the film boring, and the stuff after/during the end credits wasn't worth the price of film stock.  |  IP: Logged Kyle Anderson Film Handler Posts: 86 From: Tyler, TX, USA Registered: Dec 2005 posted 01-27-2007 05:56 PM                     I found it absolutely hilarious The best part, though, was watching a few random members of our sold-out 350 seat audience start dancing to the credits music... i fell over onto the booth floor laughing.  |  IP: Logged Mark J. Marshall Film God Posts: 3188 From: New Castle, DE, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 01-27-2007 07:10 PM                    I thought the parts I saw were pretty funny. I really liked the scenes in the credits.  |  IP: Logged Phil Blake Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 558 From: esperance western australia Registered: Nov 2003 posted 01-28-2007 03:45 AM                        I put it in the same box as "The Date Movie" The Scary movie series did bring crowds , but Date Movie did not and neither is this .  |  IP: Logged Jarryd Beard Expert Film Handler Posts: 229 From: Hellertown, PA Registered: Jul 2004 posted 01-28-2007 02:21 PM                     It may be now. However, in 30 or 40 years from now, I think it will be a lot of fun to watch. There was so much pop culture in this movie, in addition to all the references to recent movies, that could make it entertaining down the road. From Geico car insurance to Plasma Screens to Snakes on a Plane, this movie might make for interesting conversation. Besides, Darrell Hammond did a fine job as Captain Jack Swallows. 1.5 out of 4  |  IP: Logged Steven J Hart Master Film Handler Posts: 282 From: WALES, ND, USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 03-03-2007 10:01 AM                        Yes, it is , but its the only picture we've played since "The Pursuit of Happiness" that we've actually made any money on! Pretty big crowds - mostly pre-teen to early 20's. Steve  |  IP: Logged
