Yeah well, I recently watched the new Alice in Wonderland. While I haven't read the book for decades I was slightly disappointed in the twist the movie had on it, except for Mallyumkn the Dormouse. She was one of my favorite characters in the movie. Other than that I thought it was a great movie. Typical Tim Burton.

THANK YOU. Guy Ritchie's "Sherlock Holmes" is the most accurate portrayal of Holmes on screen (with the BBC film "Hound of the Baskervilles" probably right behind it). I was hoping the movie would spark interest in the old books so people could see past the false image of Holmes everyone's familiar with.

Reaper was disagreeing with this sentiment, Sherlock.

When you say the twist, are you talking about the fact that it's supposed to be after her first trip down the rabbit hole?

My fiancee' and I bought She's Out of My League, we saw it in theaters and loved it. We've watched it twice since we bought it. Funny ass movie.

We saw Grown Ups in theaters too, funny as well. It was better than I thought it would be.

Fanboys was funny to watch and worth the rental.

Burn After Reading was crap.

Not much of a twist really considering they kind of give that away in the previews. "Alice, you're back?"

It's still a twist.

Bad Lieutenant is a fucked up movie. You feel like an insane functioning drug addict along w/ him. I hated it and loved it at the same time.

Are you referring to the 1993 original or the 2009 spiritual sequel, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans?

anybody considering seeing Grown Ups...

Don't.

Awful.

All this talk of Alice returning to Wonderland being "a twist" is pissing me off. Do you unread heathens not know that Lewis Carrol wrote a sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland titled Through the Looking-Glass?

Yes. Point?:D

I still need to see Port of Call New Orleans. Anything Herzog is usually worth a watch and I have read Cage actually tries.

What you've heard is true (and it is always nice when Cage tries. He's very good here in an eccentric role). I've seen the film twice. It's pretty hilarious in a dark way.
