Son, I don't think you got the hang of this..... What in the world makes you think I would be watching movies with (my) mistress(es)????????????????????????????

I don't understand this at all. Why would a wife, gf, mistress, or anyone else for that matter, make you watch a movie? My wife goes to chick movies with her friends and I go to what I want to see with my friends. And isn't Twighlight for kids?
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I agree. I haven't seen any of them, but all my girlfriend's brothers have allowed their significant others to drag them out to see it. They're also the same ones that tell me "I'll have to check with the wife/girlfriend" and then come back with "Nah, not tonight so-and-so wants to go grocery shopping (or visit her mother, or any other lame excuse) whenever I ask them to fish, whereas my girlfriend usually says, "why are you asking me?"
Anyway, it was suppose to be a joke. The movie looks pretty bad-ass with the broadest "guy-movie" cast.

Gawd....I had no idea!
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
Haha... you've seen it with them just as much as I have. I think you've also witnessed Linds tell me "you haven't been fishing in a few days. get the hell out of the house and go fishing before you get pissy."
Just as the Harry Potter books and movies were aimed at the lonely, "live-in-my-parents-basement" techno geeks and losers, (I stand corrected and retract this part of my comment)
Maybe a "Dungeons and Dragons" role playing reference might have been more appropriate?
Twilight seems to be aimed at the female contingent of the same
group. You know, the "I think vampires are sexy, but I'll never get a date" crowd.
After "Interview with a Vampire with an efeminate Tom Cruise as a (I think gay) vampire, I could only tolerate the Blade vampire flicks.
Me go see ANY of the Twilight flicks? Only if I was bound and gagged!

Wow - I've read every Harry Potter and seen every movie, love 'em all. Never lived at home after I was 18 and far from a techno-geek. When I was single I had more than enough girls. My wife and many of her friends, all active, attractive moms in the ealry 40s have read all the Twilight books and get together to see the movies.
I guess Star Wars is for all the losers who dream of fighting the "dark side" and Raiders of the Lost Ark for the homeless that like to find treasures in peoples garbage?
Many people enjoy fantasy as it takes us away from the real world. Harry Potter is a brilliantly creative adventure series. Twilight is a teenie-bopper romance, but it attracts women because of the pure-romance element (there is NO sex in the books/film).
You should open your mind a bit, you may enjoy this stuff if you gave it a shot.

Exactly.....and as an I.T. guy I take offense to the Techno-geek reference
I've never read the potter books but I've seen all the movies and have enjoyed them immensely
Another thing that you can credit Harry Potter w/ is the fact that it got kids excited about reading....before that when was the last time you saw kids lining up at midnight for a book.
Twilight's target audience is the same target audience as Tiger beat magazine....the 12-16 year old girls.....the Mom's enjoy the Romance aspect of them.
Horror Movies, by far, are my favorite Genre of movies.....I love everything about them from the Silent classics to the modern day slasher flicks....they are all fun to watch.
FT if you liked Blade and you want to see some good Vampire flicks like it check out John Carpenter's Vampires....thats a lot of fun to watch with some great killings
Also check out Near Dark....it is what Twilight would be if a Guy wrote it.
Interview w/ a Vampire, Great Book....Movie, ah, not so much. That was a movie that should have been made by an independent film company w/ some no-name actors......Marquis stars just weren't right for it.....although I thought Antonio Banderas was really good in his role.
Like Jimmy said.....fantasy takes you away from the real world.....Which has a tendency to suck sometimes
"If you're arguing with an idiot, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."
check out John Carpenter's Vampires....thats a lot of fun to watch with some great killings
Great flick... was James Woods talkiing about Twilight?
"Jack Crow: You ever seen a vampire?
Father Adam Guiteau: No I haven't.
Jack Crow: No... Well first of all, they're not romantic. Its not like they're a bunch of %$%$%$%$in' fags hoppin' around in rented formal wear and seducing everybody in sight with cheesy Euro-trash accents, all right? Forget whatever you've seen in the movies: they don't turn into bats, crosses don't work. Garlic? You wanna try garlic? You could stand there with garlic around your neck and one of these buggers will bend you %$%$%$%$ing over and take a walk up your strada-chocolata WHILE he's s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&' the blood outta your neck, all right? And they don't sleep in coffins lined in taffata. You wanna kill one, you drive a wooden stake right through his %$%$%$%$in' heart. Sunlight turns 'em into crispy critters. "
