I saw The Hangover 2 tonight. If you're out for some dumb, cheap laughs, this is your movie. Not extremely clever or original, but very funny nonetheless.
I laughed a LOT!
What's the last movie you watched?

Really? I absolutely despised the first one, and I can usually appreciate a funny film. I don't know why so many people (including Roger Ebert and other film critics) seemed to love it so much. I really hated it.

I actually didn't mind it! Cheap laughs, one of those movies you can turn your brain off for (not usually a fan of doing that though haha.)David wrote:Really?

Still haven't seen the second one. The last movie I saw was Space Jam. On VHS, that is right people... VHS!

I just didn't get it, I guess. I love Life of Brian, Withnail and I and even Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. Superbad was also really good. I went into The Hangover expecting a Judd Apatow-ish film, but it just seemed really dumb and unfunny, more in the vein of Road Trip or something. Oh well, each to their own.

I wasn't a huge fan of the first one. May have been the mood I was in or the pressure of everyone telling me I HAD to like it.
Tonight I was in a good mood, it was a work social event, nobody had given me any pre-conceived notions, and I just enjoyed it.
Don't discount it completely David. It may surprise you.

A friend burned "Chinatown" for me a while ago. Ms WPT & I saw it the other night. What a great film - haven't seen it since about the time it was released - many moons ago.
Directed by Roman Polanski, featuring a young Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway & John Huston.

love the first one, for me the 2nd was funny but to many cheap laughs this time (the doodle thing got a bit much, sitting next to my 15 year old)Kingswood wrote:seriiously? first one was very funny. not holding high hopes for the second one but want to see it nonetheless
everyone told me how brilliant it was, but im not convinced,
loved the first one, it was different and clever
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

cried my heart out but WOW what a reality check!

Maybe if the bucket gets a leaking hole then I maybe will change my mind.
Hope hubby comes along ok.
this movie should be a must as it really hits those "cant explain things" that people who have not been here cant understand....
we are all good now and staying positive
