Here's a link to the parents guide. It looks fine for kids as long as you are ok with battle scenes etc. I'm taking my 5 year old boy and he is fired up.

I'm in, as well as my entire family.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Thanks, I'll check it out.


Funny, seems to be a lot of interest in this movie. I know it was going to be popular, but this popular? Impressive.

Maybe we should rent a theater, you know, Too Fieckin Good Movie To Miss Night

"So I have not been in a movie theater since 1977"
Last time for me...bringing my son to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles....he graduated from college 2 years ago. Can't stand the crowds & noisy kids, PIA if you have to take a leak, can't drink a beer, too much $$, etc. Guess I've turned into an old coot! Wish they would bring back drive in's!

Has this whole board flipped over this movie except BigFish? Larry has gone on the record saying: "Looks pretty bad to me! I predict a box office disaster! I will have to take a big time pass on this one! Special effects look pretty....lousy!"

Maybe we should take up a collection to buy his ticket so he doesn't miss out on this experience. One that he is sure to regret.........

I heard initial reviews from people that saw it last night at midnight said that its great. some went with the same assumption as Larry that its overblown they came out raving about it and said they were glad they went.

Count my family in as well. My friend went to the midnight 3D last night and couldn't stop telling me about it. I had to shut him up this morning.

Now I really am having second thoughts that this will be a blockbuster: the early reviews since release are coming in TOO GOOD!

Maybe one of the MEGA-blockbusters..........

For me to go to a movie theatre is more rare than an Audobom volunteer runing over a Piping Plover

The last two movies I saw in a theatre were The Perfect Storm and Good Will Hunting

The last two movies I thought lived up to their pre hype were Heat (DeNiro and Pacino first time) and Raging Bull

I saw a review on TV this morning that says Avatar is not going to live up to the hype and that tells me it might.

For me...it looks like a chick flick combined with a video game....YYYYUUUUCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK

I wont say definately not but it will take a lot of raving from people who are not just conforming to popuar society

Hey Victoria's Secret is coming out with a new lingerie line to compliment what they see as all the rage in the near future about what goes on behind closed doors with your favorite avatar.

Those reviews you posted do not bode well for the movie? Sounds pretty "Ishtar" to me? If its in 3-D I would never see it no matter how good it is.....3-D does not agree with my eyes!
