Anyone seen a good movie lately?

[Seabiscuit36]

Maybe is just the iceholes in Delaware then, but belive me it's happened enought that i generally avoid the theater, and if we go its on a Tuesday or Wednesday night at 9pm to avoid teens(in the summer they are unavoidable.)

[SunMo]

yeah, i don't usually have a problem at theaters, and i even go to a lot of summer movies and on opening weekends too.

one movie, there were some teenagers in the back getting loud and the ushers were on them pretty quick and threw them out and it wasn't a problem. 

but i always go through the same neurosis...during the previews people don't mind talking or looking at their phones because some people don't care about previews.  but that makes me think that everyone will talk and be noisy during the movie.  then the movie starts and it's fine..and i can relax and not snap someones neck

I was at a theatre once with a girl I was seeing...there must have been 12 people watching the movie...3 people in front of us....my ex and I....and the 7 knucklefargs behind us. They were asian-wannabe-gangstas...they were loud and annoying, on the phone, making calls,  talking, laughing (and I know they weren't laughing about the movie because it was a 'romantic comedy')....and I could tell my chick was starting to boil until she turned around and told them 'if they could keep it down'. Of course, one of the little asian bitches told her to shut up...and being the 4'10 fiesty latina...I thought to myself, "Aw shtein".....she then gets up...and walks out.......she then comes back minutes later...with the security guard...and the guy kicks them out. Security wouldn't hear it...and they were like, "You don't know who we are"...the security man didn't give a shtein and kicked them the farg out. That made my day.

They were Yakuza and killed the guard and his family that night

Drive thru University of Delaware's campus in the summer, half of Japan is here.  Its crazy, and what is up with the need to use umbrellas or books to cover their faces from the sun?  Its hilarious, they always look like its raining outside. 

[ice grillin you]

Before you know it, you've stepped right into the thick of this flick. There are no opening credits, no titles. There is just black fire and the smoky blue Batman symbol and then you've right there on a pavement in Gotham, in broad daylight.

It almost seems too real, too ordinary. Get ready for a ride that is so gritty, you might catch yourself initially feeling bored with the realism. Be careful though, just when you least expect it, you'll have found the world around you has suddenly unraveled.

Anarchy, incidentally, is what Batman fights on our behalf, and anyone who has any sense knows that anarchy in a city is frightening. Stay alert because the trickster who thrives on unleashing chaos will smack you to attention again and again with his hellish Holy Toledo trickery.

Consequences. In real life, these ramifications emanate from every action like ripples from a stone thrown into a pond. Often in movies, especially those that feature characters who don't play by the rules, such penalties are suspended. However, in Christopher Nolan's Batman universe, decisions and actions have consequences. The Dark Knight, arguably the moodiest and most adult superhero motion picture ever to reach the screen, illustrates this lesson in ways that are startling and painful. This is a tough, uncompromising motion picture - one that defies the common notions of what is expected from a "superhero" film. While there are plenty of action sequences and instances of derring-do, The Dark Knight's subtext has a tragic underpinning that would intrigue Shakespeare or the Greeks. It's about power and impotence, sanity and madness, image and reality, selfishness and sacrifice, and - yes - consequences.

2008 may be the year that the superhero movie comes of age. Iron Man represents the best screen adventure of a Marvel hero. Now, D.C. has answered with The Dark Knight, a film so impressive in every significant facet that it makes one wonder why it took so long for the genre to reach this high level. Christopher Nolan has provided movie-goers with the best superhero movie to-date, outclassing previous titles both mediocre and excellent, and giving this franchise its The Empire Strikes Back.

the second review is key because it shows that this is less superhero movie and more social commentary mystery/drama...which is def a good thing

Walked out on two movies:  1) Popeye with Robin Williams, 2) I don't remember what the movie was, because I was on a blind date with a fat chick who talked incessantly about utter crap.  About 30 minutes into the movie, I excused myself to go to the restroom, and high-tailed it out of there. I drove of course, so I have no idea how she got home or how long it took her to realize.  She was a friend of a friend of a friend, so I never got a story on what happened.  I still feel guilty about it, but that doesn't stop me from telling the story at least once a year.

the commercials were the worst i've ever seen the last time i was there...a 5 minute commercial for verizon's new phone, no lie 5 minutes long

Was it that stupid ass "What song is that" mini-movie?  That SUCKED - although it was cool I learned I could do that with my phone.

yeah, i think so

I walked out on Crazy Love, Johnny Mnemonic and Natural Born Killers. All in high school. I've tried so many times since then to watch NBK. I really want to like it, but it's really really awful.

After so much hype Natural Born Killes was a letdown. It didn't age well either. And let me save you some trouble: It gets worse the deeper into the movie you get.

If there were two movies I wanted to walk out of but didn't because I was with people it would have been Ang Lee's 'The Hulk' and Indiana Jones Crystal Skulls. I'll pretty much sit through anything than bitch about it as soon as it's over.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

NBK is quite overrated, but I'm able to enjoy it nominally.

I don't remember ever actually walking out on a movie, as a courtesy to the people with me.  I came really close to doing so anyway during "The Blair Witch Project."  I couldn't believe the hype it got.  It didn't come across *real* at any point in the movie, so the shaky camera crap and attempts at scares just came across in an extremely telegraphed fashion and I never bought in.

I haven't been to the movies since summer of 2006 ("Pirates 2"), but the only one I can remember nearly ditching in recent memory is "You, Me, and Dupree."

I walked out of Gods ans Generals and went and bought a Mr. T bobblehead. It sits proudly atop my television.

So.....hating on asians>>>>>>hating on stillupfronts.
