I'm debating whether or not to go se it tonight or wait for it to come out on video. Is it worth it? Would going to see Reno!911: Miami be a better choice? Or go home and rent Babel?

Oh lord, go home and rent Babel. It may be the weakest of the best picture nominees, but I'm sure it's better than those two comedies you mentioned.

But I haven't seen either one so ignore my advice.

I've heard a lot of good thangs bout Norbit... I wouldn't see it if I were u though, go and rent it, but ya know u could watch ghostrider

Is it April Fool's Day?

Go see Amazing Grace instead. http://movies.yahoo.com/m...22949/info

It's the only thing in theaters right now I'd actually pay to see.

I'm serious! They didn't say any bad things about ti and it was the numba one box office hit at the opening weekend (I think it got like 30 somthin million and the second place one had like 13 mill)

sextonseven said:

I'm in kind of a silly mood and I could use to watch something silly. I know for sure I like Reno 911, but it probably won't play to well as a movie. I've really wanted to see Babel too, now that I've seen it's up for nominations I want to see it more.

miho9000 said:

I want to see Ghostrider too, and I'm not really into superhero type movies. Maybe it's the whole Nicholas Cage thing. Decisions, decisions. Maybe I'll see both and ditch Reno til it gets more reviews.

miho9000 said:

Who are "they"? Just take a look at all the bad things said about it right here: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/norbit/

ROTTEN!

My friend saw Ghost Rider and said it was crap. He emailed a bunch of his friends including myself and said to avoid it like the plague.

ugh...fine.

sextonseven said:

geez... ya know what? How about you critic everything I stand for?!?!? (jk jk...but do you have any negative feelings towards the Number 23?)

evenstar3 said:

I don't know. Normally, I'm a sucker for period films, somehow this one hasn't grabbed me, even after learning more about it. If it turns out to be a real tear jerker, a getting down to your very soul type of movie I'd bite.

evenstar3 said:

eh...eh...I wouldn't c this if i was u. Its like...one of those history films It's like bein in a social studies class! (oh, and I've never heard of William Wildurbeck er whatever)

miho9000 said:

I heard Number 23 was junk too.

But I haven't seen any of these films so my opinion doesn't carry much weight. I tend to prefer movies where reading is involved.

How old are you again?

You might like Brotherhood Of The Wolf. It's French, but there are wolf-monsters and martial arts fighting and stuff. It's one of my favorite movies ever.

miho9000 said:

that's exactly why i'd like it, i think.

i laughed my ass off. it wasn't the funniest movie ever made but it was funny. i could have done without the racially based casting (if you see it, you'll notice the problem immediately). but i thought the movie was really funny.

sextonseven said:

Babel? That movie was just.....Un-entertaining. I've NEVER seen more people make bad choices in one film. How in the hell did this film get nominated 4 an Oscar?

Graycap23 said:

I really liked it. It's MUCH better than 'Crash'.

I'm seeing a trend in this thread.

don't waste movie money on Norbit, it's a "wait until it comes out on dvd" type movie. i saw it on a clear bootleg, it was okay, but a bit corny.

I wish Eddie would make funny movies like "Harlem Nights" and "Coming to America" again.

This was the biggest waste of 5 dollars ever!

missfee said:

I hope he NEVER makes another movie like "Harlem Nights", that shit was terrible!! But yes, "Coming to America" is classic "Boomerang" was good too

karmatornado said:

5 dollars??? shucks, if i would have seen it at the movies where i live i would have had to pay 9 dollars!!

Eh, I didn't go see either one. I got some more "wait and see Norbit on video" advice from other people. And somewhere I heard Reno:911 movie is more like a bad Police Academy series. Tried to rent Babel but they were all gone, so I got The Devil Wears Prada instead. Though it was a cute movie I had some big issues with it, and it had a couple of holes that they tried to flimsily disguised. Size 6 isn't "fat" unless you're a model or in the public eye a lot, but for office personnel, that just nuts.

oh god i want to see this movie so bad!
I wanna see that fat woman slide her fat ass down that slide and shoot off into outer space!!!!
