Too bad Cabin in the Woods isn't coming out until January @_@ *dies*

I haven't been to the movies in a loooooooooooooong time, so I don't really know too much about what is coming out to make a decision on what movies I'm looking forward to :\ (if any)


Ugh I just looked up the January date. Jeez that's a long way away.

And yeah going to the movies is so rare for me these days. Hollywood really seems to be getting worse and worse. I heard they're making a movie out of ErcotorSet toys. Really? How is that a movie? They're just like Legos, right? Where's the story there? Awful.

Like shooting fish in a barrel I bet.

On thing I'm always wondering is why don't they film stuff back to back? Like with Spiderman they knew the sequels were going to be box office gold. So, just film two movies back to make and release them over the next three years. That gives the actors time to do some other stuff then bring them in and film a couple more.

Heck Lord of the Rings filmed all three at once, right? That was a cash cow. Why not learn from them?

Because Hollywood doesn't learn from anything? :P Seriously, they're REmaking so much shit it's like "wow guys, why not bring in new writers instead of doing the same thing...again?"

We were talking about remakes in class the other day XD I have a couple of youngin's in my class who haven't seen any movies with a release date prior to like 1993. It hurts my heart. The Producers, Real Genius, Kelly's Heroes, name the movie name the decade, they were like "what's that?"

ONE OF THEM ASKED WHO BILL MURRAY WAS. SHE'S NEVER SEEN GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!

Oooookay I def never heard of any of those movies either.

But I don't want to know a person who hasn't seen Ghostbusters. That just seems wrong.

never heard of the Producers? Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder? Done by the same man who brought us Robin Hood Men in Tights?

In any event, we named off like four different Bill Murray movies and they just kind of stared at us blankly.

aw, you're sweet Traveler :D

I think we should compile a "movies you should know by the age of 18" list, lol, and put groundhog day/ghostbusters near the top.
