I hope that you at least ate the rest of the ice cream cone Snick!!

nope. he ate the best part before falling asleep. I was wodnering why he started eating the cone edge before the icecream getting to that point....then we looked back and he was out.

My kid's summer rec camp takes them to movies every Thursday, as part of a local deal the theater in town does. That means that he's seen most of the movies he's wanted to see and I didn't need to go. Rise of the Guardians he saw during a good behavior incentive at school, where the entire school got to go to the theater.

Watched Hope Floats on TV Friday night and it was so edited it didn't even make sense.

Because I know all you guys have that sucker memorized.

My wife and I took our 2 year old son to see Turbo this past weekend. I enjoyed it, but my son had enough at about the hour mark. We went to a movie tavern type place early in the morning though so he was free to walk around and there was only two other families in the theater who didn't mind.

I just had to google Movie Tavern. A burger seems way better than some popcorn!

you noticed that too!!!!!!! still made me cry though when her momma dies

I was like, "How did we go from dancing to she's throwing up?!"

And that scene where her mom dies just about stabs me in the heart. Then when the little kid is on the porch, it does me in.

Watched Project X last night. Not bad, not great. Certainly worth the DVR space from a free HBO weekend a month ago.

Funny, predictible, plenty of bewbs.

I'm too disgusted by today's youth to watch that movie. Just the premise of it irritates the hell out of me.

It was pretty horrible.

I guess I just relate more to Gen X than Gen Y. I think the skinny jeans are cutting off the flow to their brains.

I saw Wolverine this past weekend with the family. It is NOT a family movie! Wolvie drops the F-bomb at one point. Violent as hell, too, although not super bloody.

We also saw Pacific Rim. I enjoyed that movie, despite being completely preposterous in every possible way.

I did. Great flick. Especially when you were a fan of Vol-tron as a kid. :thumbs:

Jack the Giant Slayer, on Netflix, with the kids - myeh, didn't suck.

Synopsis: Jack climbs a beanstalk and slays giants.

...although in service to the rigors of accuracy in engineering , he technically only "slays" one giant.

Spoiler: One of the giants has two heads. Whoops, sorry to give that away.

Not sure how young an age this would be appropriate for, since most of the slaying happens just off-camera, but it was fine for 12+ and not all that bad of a flick overall. Reasonably watchable.

Although I did cry when the mom gets slain and the little giant is on the porch (Okay, I made that part up)

Finally watched Sharknado. It was everything I hoped it'd be, and more. Even though we'd heard about the ending, when we finally saw it we could hardly breathe because we were laughing so hard.

 

[Road Guy]

Never thought I would say this but grown ups 2 was actually pretty damn funny.......

I got to see the world premier for Planes Friday night at Airventure. Estimated crowd for the movie was 15,000. I'm somewhere in the picture: Link

We liked the movie and it seemed to go over well with those around us.

We laughed nonstop from the time the woman got eaten in midair until the end.
