    I don't know what was better: the movie, or the reaction of the people in the audience who thought this was a typical teen movie. A lot of disappointed faces walking out. Great.
  6. QUOTE (thestand @ Feb 4 2007, 12:42 AM) The ultimate thread kill- the goodbye. I'll see you all in a few months, probably. I basically stood by this.

  12. I saw Pirates as well. I was high out of my mind, though, so I can't give it a fair review. I'm sure it won't be as good the second time around.
  13. Blades of Glory Pleasantly surprised with this one. After Anchorman came Talladega Nights, which was a big leap down. So I wasn't expecting much from this. But really, it wasn't half bad. I've found any role Nick Swardson takes, no matter how little screen-time he gets, he steals the scene. And he's no different in this, playing John Heder's creepy stalker. Great role for him As with other Ferrell movies, there's a number of great one-liners. As for the best scene, it's a tossup between the first pair-skate scene, or the "chase" scene between Ferrell and Arnett. From beginning to end, that could be the funniest chase scene ever. Overall, it's what you'd expect from a nearly-summer comedy. No brilliance, but enough laughs for your buck. 7/10.
  14. Easily the best Todd line- "Wait, so he can call you Smelliot but I can't call you Vaginaface???" "Not the same thing, Todd!"
