Much to learn, you have young Padawan.

Yes..he was one of those people who probably couldn't even find Greece on a map....

Heh, I was kinda aiming that one in your direction, but it's cool it still applies to the kid. Anywho, based on the numbers the movie did over the opening weekend, they'll find a way to make some sort of a sequel to it. I haven't seen it myself so I don't know the story or how it ends, but based on years and years of burning out my mind on tv and movies I can confidently say that if Hollywood makes enough money on a movie like that, they'll make a sequel or prequel. Anything to make a buck.

At me?

The story is a very stylized account of the battle of Thermopylae...
The ending scene is the beginning of the battle of Plataea...

I'm well aware of how Hollywood works...

The Illusionist 5/5

This movie was So much better than the prestige (although the prestige was excellent in its own right). There was more depth to the characters and the Illusionist did not bother with trying to explain all the Tricks that were performed. Infact
*SPOILER*[COLOR="White"]The only trick that was explained was the orange Tree and he used a mechanized lift to make the tree grow [/COLOR]Highlight with your mouse if you wish to read the spoiler.

Stay Alive 1/5

This movie was not even interesting from the get go, when i saw the commercials for it when it first came out i was like

. None the less i decided to torture myself with this waste of cellophane the actors were quite unconvincing and the storyline was horrible and full of holes. They left the ending open to a stay alive 2 god please let there not be another one of these.

Borat 5/5. My stomach literally hurt the next day from laughing!

And as for car chase movies: One of the greatest is "Moonrunners", which is the life story of the real life dukes of hazzard. This movie was the basis for the show, however the movie is much less family oriented, if you know what I mean.

Looks like this year is going to be a good year. :D

TMNT
http://imdb.com/title/tt0453556/
I need to find some free time to go see this one. Looks pretty sweet!

Spiderman 3
http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/spiderman3.html
This is the movie I've been waiting for. They finally show Venom in the trailer! He is the only reason I ever read a Spiderman comic book. The only problem I see with this is he's got waaay too many villains. I saw at least three and that's not including the suit. It'll be interesting to see how they handle it all. BTW, I hate Spiderman as a comic book character, but I love this movie series.

Transformers

http://imdb.com/title/tt0418279/
I knew this one was coming and I was still flipping out when I saw the trailer on TV. I just don't know if I can take a 4th of July opening (lots and lots of people) again.

Live Free or Die Hard
http://imdb.com/title/tt0337978/
Another one of my favorite Movie series. Can't wait! :D

Shooter - 4.25/5

This is one of those movies you definitely need a killer sound system to watch.

EDIT: Also, this was by far the worst audience ever! I mean it had chick on the cell phone, dood beside her going in and out (jumping over the railing) apparently to chat on the phone. WTF!!! Several people walking in and out (nearly stomping down the stairs) to get refreshments. People opening plastic wrappers during a quiet scenes (which were few and far between... this is a LOUD movie), people chit chatting about the movie during quiet scenes. A couple with their baby sitting right in front of us (I will give props that they would leave whenever they baby would start to act up) and to top it all off we had exclusive commentary from this old guy in the back on one side and some chick on the other side. I mean every little thing he had to mutter something about. STFU!!!
