I thought you were living "This is 40"?  LOL....j/k.

 

[Road Guy]

I have put that one (40) to stern....

^Nice Buffett reference.

I am glad that someone got it

I saw "The Secret Life of Pets" this weekend with my son.  It was better than I thought it was going to be, and better than msot or maybe al of the kids movies so far this year.  But that's not saying all that much...

I crack up whenever I see the commercial with "Sympathy for the Devil" as the soundtrack for a kids movie.

Went to see The BFG last night (yes, I know I've been seeing a lot of movies lately, I've been forced to).  It was quite a bit better than I expected from the previews, although not fantastic.  I'd rate it about par with The Pets movie, perhaps a little better just because it's based on a Roald Dahl book, instead of a committee-driven commercialized Hollywood script factory (although ultimately, the BFG went through one of those, too).

I am disappointed that movie isn't about the Big ******* Gun from Doom.

Glad I wasn't the only one that briefly thought the same. :thumbs:

[Road Guy]

yes so what is the BFG?  Is that like the HMFIC?

 

[Dleg]

The Big Friendly Giant.  "The BFG" is one of those Roald Dahl kid's books, like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or The Fantastic Mr. Fox.  I only knew about it because my son's school sent it home with him once to read.  I also thought of Doom when I saw the cover.

ok fess up, I know someone caved and went to see the new Ghostbusters..

 

[csb]

I'll be going, but I don't think I count because I have a ******. 

 

[envirotex]

Star Trek and Bad Moms...only 2 that are going to get my theater $$$.  Although, I have been watching all of the Bourne movies on SyFy...

 

[Dleg]

I'm not planning on seeing Ghostbusters, but I'm not the "decider" since I do not have a ****** @csb.  It's actually getting decent reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

 

[Road Guy]

you know I am happy to see the Ghostbusters reboot doing poorly, but I think the "female" hate is a little misplaced.  I would be equally pissed if they rebooted Goonies, Top Gun, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Breakfast Club, etc..

Wife and son went last night to see this and ended up leaving early.  Wife was bored by it and son was scared of some snake in the sewer (he's 3)
