The "wax on/wax off" made me want to slap the old man.



I watched "Sky High" yesterday. I haven't watched it since it was in theatres 5 years ago, and I missed lots of the jokes.
In sidekick class, they learn to fill in the blanks for "Holy ___, ___man!"

Yay Sky High! Warren Peace soon to be seen as Captain America's sidekick Bucky

That's not in the new one. Now it's "jacket on/jacket off".

Ahh, that was a surprisingly good film, shame it got kind of ignored.

Saw Megamind yersterday, it's a better spoof than I expected, certainly better than Despicable Me. (Will Ferrel actually didn't act that much like Will Ferrel which helped)

the new clash of the titans and enjoyed it no matter wot the critics say

 

[Danny B]

Skyline. A pretty effective b-movie, ramped up to 11. The first part of a trilogy, apparently, so hopefully the proposed sequels will be equally enjoyable.

We also watched Get Him to the Greek, which was disappointing to say the least, as well as a marathon of the late Chris Farley's films Tommy Boy, Black Sheep and Beverly Hills Ninja. His comedies were certainly loud and dumb, but never mean spirited or obnoxious like quite a lot of films in the current comedy trend. Those of you who haven't heard of him, think of him as a forerunner to Jack Black, with a greater emphasis on physical comedy and less profanity.

At least in the film they don't do flashes to other parts of the globe (Dr Who, most other invasion flicks)

It is just a romance that happens to have a background dotted with giants beasts. Really believeably done and made low budget with a cast a nd crew of four using locals as extras with 20 mins notice.

it's a must watch.
