War Of The Worlds was a pretty good movie. Mystic River was a brilliant movie as well, you know Tim Robbins won a little award I like to call the Oscar for his role in it.
Stephen King sure doesn't think much of TV, huh?

I'm not a comic book read, even though I play one on tv, but you're a god damn moron if you think Batman is a remake.
It's obvious you've never seen the movie at all. It's not a remake. Which might be why it's called Batman BEGINS...you know telling the story of the beginning of Batman.
It's easy to boycott hollywood when the expensive movies suck. Maybe the actors should stop making political statements and start making some decent movies. If they're so intelligent, why don't they try their hand at writing some ORIGINAL screenplays?
Why don't you just go back to your mechanical engineering job and quit posting your political views on here? Maybe you can invent an original motor design or something.Maybe the actors should stop making political statements and start making some decent movies.

Well, this is a political forum on the internet, and I'm not charging you for my services. If I stood up in a product development meeting and proclaimed my political preferences, I would look pretty stupid.
BTW, I've got several patents pending.
Actors dont charge you to watch them on television shows like Extra speaking their mind either...and while they are working on movies i dont think they spew out political talk in the middle of shooting films. its in their leisure time when they are able to chat with reporters, much like its your free time to come in here. congrats on your patents.

Well, that's a fair point on the TV shows, but press junkets and movie premieres are part of their jobs to promote their product. That's why I threw out the development meeting with clients, it's a similar cir stance. If I wanted to make a statement similar to that within a movie I would cast a huge republican elephant on a machine housing or print derogatory statements on my products.
Addendum: It wouldn't be very good business practice on my part to alienate a potential customer.
I don't pay attention to these types of statement at all. If anyone of them were in support of the President and the policies of the administration many conservatives commentators and followers would in total admiration of the person.
This is just another case of "agree with us or else". It's being done on BOTH sides of the fence.
It's just an opinion that's all.
He's not.
I've been boycotting Hollywood for three years. Haven't gone to the cinema since I started having kids.
Have you been boycotting them voluntarily, or is it due to financial and time constraints?
100% time. With a 2 and 1/2 year old and 4 month twins, I barely have time to fart.Have you been boycotting them voluntarily, or is it due to financial and time constraints?
Hollywood's problems is the lack of original movies these days in my humble opinion.
Bewitched, Bad New Bears, The Longest Yard, the list goes on.......
Of course these days I am in a demographic that they don't care to market to either so there are not a whole lot of "stars" that draw me to a movie either.
For example, a tatted up Angelina Jolie does nothing for me. I know she has a great figure and is pretty but because of who she is in real life it is a factor when I consider going to see Mr and Mrs Smith. I know it shouldn't be but it is.
I didn't know you recently had twins! Congratulations!
I think that's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. I dunno why that should even be a factor.
I don't know, you manage to all over this forum day in and day out.
Thanks S y. It has not been easy. I think the worst is over, though. The baby girl sleeps through the night. The boy only wakes uo once to eat. The eldest one also sleeps through the night.
Its a challenge but i could not be happier.
It's true. If I were not technologically challenged I would post a picture of my family.
By the way, what kind of are you refering to, Yoni? I thought you enjoyed my posts
$9.75 here x 2 with the wife and another $12 for pop and popcorn.
Priceless Too much trash out there.
Maybe they should try airing an occasional weekend Pistons game (or Spurs) at the theatres.

As a matter of fact they are , Honda and Toyota are putting out better products.
I buy American because my brother-in-law works for Chrysler and my sister works for GM, if it weren't for that I'd look into a foreign car.
I read recently one of the movie chains was offering a money back guarantee on the new Russell Crowe movie about the boxer. (can't recall the le right now). Anyway, the ticket price goes to the studio. The food et al profit goes to the movie theatre. According to my take on the report, the theatre doesn't make any money from the attendees unless they buy concession food.
No wonder they get mad when I bring my ice chest.
Acting awards and character often do not go hand-in hand.
There were and are many excellent actors and actresses who are pitiful and pathetic in real life.
Why many of them think acting awards and money gives their opinions more weight than others is absurd.
I think it's hilarious when "stars" get offended because their views and opinions are considered repugnant by others.
Yeah, it's tough when they are that young. Don't worry, they'll be fighting with each other soon enough!
Yeah, well, crap can be entertaining sometimes... I mean, look at Howard Dean.It's true. If I were not technologically challenged I would post a picture of my family.

Seriously, congrats on the babies.
Tell me about it . . . even your posts make me laugh once in a while
Thanks. They sure are a blessing.
