This one's an easy one for me. I know it has its own loyal fans, but for me, Home on the Range is just absolutely awful. Songs --- forgettable. Animation --- run of the mill. Voice characterizations --- not bad for the most part, but Roseanne KILLED IT for me in this department. Her voice just annoy...

Charlie & the Chocolate Factory is..

I saw it last night and I think the movie is GREAT! It is Tim Burton at just about his best. Now, I'm a big fan of the original, and admittedly I was skeptical about this one. But after actually seeing it, I've gotta' tell you, it is even BETTER than the original. That's right, I said it: BETTER tha...

I've actually come around on this show a little, I still find a lot of it tasteless and a shameless rip-off of the The Simpsons but it does make me laugh a lot sometimes...especially Stewie! "Victory is mine!" I loved the episode when they all got powers a la Fantastic Four. Very weird, surreal! Th...

Re: Harrison Ford is 63 today! SIXTY-THREE!!!!!

Man, oh man... And I can remember The Empire Strikes Back brand-new at the theater just like it was yesterday... but it was over 25 years ago! Harrison's just about a year older than my Dad, but I honestly think my Dad has aged better and probably doesn't have half the physical/mental problems Ford...

It's funny this debate, but I guess the way to see it is that, just as DreamWorks is "famed" for making a "certain kind of CG picture", the same could just as easily be said about Pixar, who, despite different stories each time out, do all posses that same softness about them. ;) ...And again, so w...

Regardless of wether it's more of the same. The same can be said about Disney, Dreamworks, Aardman.. don't their movies sort of all look and feel the same? big deal I was excited when I firt saw the trailer, but when there was this whole load of negativity coming after it, I started to wonder if ma...

I think one of the chorus dancers (the three girls) was Tisha Campbell. She played Martin Lawrence's girlfriend Gena on that show "Martin," if you ever watched that. Yes, indeed, I used to watch "Martin" and I did remember that Tisha Campbell was one of the doo-wop girls. There were actually only t...

"Part of Your World" is also a lot like that song "Somewhere that's Green" from Little Shop of Horrors--Ashman/Menken too!! :) That's where Audrey sings about how she would like to have a better life and one day be married to Seymore. That film has an awesome score too! Love that Dentist song! :D :...

Yeah, I agree about Under The Sea. It's a great song, but kills the film dead :? Huh?? "Kills the film dead"? Umm.. isn't that a bit exaggerated? It actually fit in seamlessly with the story as Sebatian is trying to convince Ariel of how good life is right where she is. Saying it "kills the film de...

:? Wow, I'm honestly surprised that I'm the only one (at the time I'm writing this) to choose The Little Mermaid . While for me it's a very, very, very close one between Beauty and the Beast and Mermaid, for me the Little Mermaid score affects me on a much deeper level, bringing up incredibly good f...

Ummm.. okay.. back to the subject of Batman Begins --- Sorry to say that he doesn't. One - the best - is used barely, the other one/two doesn't stick around very long and then the end is just fighting. Badly cut, can't see what's going on fighting. I spoke to the Stunt Coordinator today, and most of...

And I loved Burton's first.
:D Finally. Someone who feels exactly as I do. You, sir, are a wise man! :lol: And I, too, enjoyed Burton's first Batman (and still like it), but in comparison to Batman Begins? No contest. Best -- Batman movie -- ever.

It looks good. But nothin' that's getting me excited enough to go see it unless a friend wants me to go with them. You've got no reason to trust me, but.. trust me. Don't judge it or go by these ads you see on tv. Go see it, I doubt you'd be disappointed. You seem to be pretty easy to please (no, t...

:lol: Well, honestly, I can't get enought of Ian McKellan. I think he is great and love every minute he's on the screen! He's the best villain in the X-Men movies and it wouldn't be the same without him. :P
