i have never once enjoyed a movie with that stunted man child.
Speaking of movies that pushed the limits of childrenās entertainment, anyone remember Titan: A.E.?
That movie was the shit.
Actually for its time, that was a rather good movie. I think I have it on vhs somewhere.
Guess who finally owns Skyrim?
Whats that?
I need to update my gaming files.
ā¦Wasnāt it like one of the most popular games a year or two ago?
I liked the short clip with Buscemi, any clip with the hot teacher, and the ending competition. The rest of it was just dumb, and I didnāt care for it.
I enjoyed Titan A.E. Not the best movie, but fun.
Up was the childrenās movie that pushed the emotional limits and was still completely entertaining.
Happy Feet just tortured a penguin into insanity, and then dropped him back home after a mental breakdown in some fit of deus ex machina. I hate that movieā¦
Up was sad. I went into it expecting to be entertained, and then the damn opening tore out my heart and trampled it. :ā(
Yes it did. That was the boundary push. But then it built my heart back up and gave me the ride of a lifetime, and by the end I was happy again. I love that movie (though I still canāt watch the beginning without crying the moment I see his wife as a child knowing she is going to die by the next couple of minutes ).
Toy Story 3 was pretty sad, too. That scene in the incineratorā¦
The deus ex machina was hilarious, though. Best callback ever.
I havenāt seen the movie all the way through (or the second one for that matter), so that scene didnāt have the emotional impact with me that it probably should have, though I have seen it.
I honestly donāt think toy story 3 was made to be a ākids movieā, just my opinion.
hmm, I donāt remember anything in happy feet. I know I watched it and that it was complete shit, maybe my brain is suppressing the memory. Iāve yet to see UP.
I sure did enjoy Tangled though.

āThis is the strangest thing I have ever done!ā 
youre all pussies up was not sad you only think it is because everyone tells you it is
No, I hadnāt heard that it was sad before I watched it. And they were heartbreaking, those first few minutes.
Billy Madison (to call back earlier posts) can be summed up in the paraphrased words of the principal:
What Iāve just watched was one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever seen. At no point in that rambling, incoherent movie were they even close to anything that could be considered a rational plot. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having watched it. I award āBilly Madisonā no stars, and may God have mercy on that movie.
Billy Madison was kind of entertaining, and it is the only type of role Adam Sandler can play, since at that point itās less acting and more paying him to show up to shooting.
And Titan AEā¦Man, I thought that movie was so cool back in the day. I remember thinking, even then, that they were really pushing the limitā¦though I guess that hindered it, since they didnāt really know if they wanted to do an adult movie or a kid movie. I recently watched it again and found that it could either be viewed as a mature film with childish jokes and squabble, or a childrenās movie with inappropriate references and blood. Either way, it would have been ten times better if they chose a direction and stuck with it.
his wife died. bitch was old the fuck did you expect to happen?
The worst part is that my screenwriting teacher constantly shilled that movie for being a perfect film in terms of itās script structure. If anything, it just proves that even if your film conforms rigidly to the structured format that makes it marketable, that doesnāt mean that your film has a soul, nor does it mean that itās automatically any good.
However, the format canāt be discounted out of hand, otherwise you end up with horsefuckery like Days of Heaven or Taste of Cherry.
Because of some unfortunate internetting, I happen to know that horsefuckery is an actual film genre, and Iām pretty sure these two films arenāt it.
