Seriously. Cameron needs to hand a check over to Kevin Costner for swiping his plot and characters literally point by point. = )Marley Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11645678180669587782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-20161276197092712002010-01-25T08:08:18.275-08:002010-01-25T08:08:18.275-08:00Steph, my boys went to see the Chimpmunks movie wi...Steph, my boys went to see the Chimpmunks movie with their dad and everybody loved it. I'm sad I can't talk anyone into going to see the Princess and the Frog (note to marketing ppl, "Princess" is a great buzz word for girls but a huge buzz KILL for boys)<br /><br />Cara, can you believe I haven't seen a single one of the movies you mentioned? I'll have to get on that.<br /><br />And Tina, I wanted to see that one too. I'll see it on DVD I'm sure.Wendy Toliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642277380582169548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-22054119344238092362010-01-25T06:46:49.333-08:002010-01-25T06:46:49.333-08:00I have yet to see Avatar, but really looking forwa...I have yet to see Avatar, but really looking forward to it! <br /><br />Like Steph, I usually see most films on DVD, but I did get out to see It's Complicated this month.TinaFerrarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14356148823775352938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-48671070499980411212010-01-24T22:16:18.100-08:002010-01-24T22:16:18.100-08:00I really enjoyed Avatar, too -- I saw it twice.

I like both big-budget things (I <b>loved</b> last year's Star Trek) and smaller pics (I highly recommend The Hurt Locker, A Serious Man, Moon, and The Fantastic Mr. Fox. All from last year, though not all super-recent!)<br /><br />CaraCara Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930608028959652445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-80892246755680363462010-01-24T21:33:22.797-08:002010-01-24T21:33:22.797-08:00The last movie I saw was Alvin and the Chipmunks: ...The last movie I saw was Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Skequel! ha! The hubby and I just can't get there like we used to. I will definitely check out Avatar on DVD. I have to admit that I probable wouldn't see it at the theatre just because 3D movies always seem to give me a headache.stephhalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15836703686468306571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-60799474962900925272010-01-24T16:01:39.661-08:002010-01-24T16:01:39.661-08:00Nancy, wow, three times?!

I was surprised about the love story component too--pleasantly surprised. <br />hi Eleni, thanks for commenting! <br /><br />I'm actually glad I hadn't heard too much about it before I went so my mind could be wide open. I did, however, not agree with the person who said the story itself was lame b/c I rather enjoyed it.Wendy Toliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642277380582169548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-11637770258499367642010-01-24T13:20:12.748-08:002010-01-24T13:20:12.748-08:00I'm so glad you liked this movie, I truly enjo...I'm so glad you liked this movie, I truly enjoyed it very much!

It was huge here. By the time it had been out a week, my fifteen year old had seen it at the IMAX three times. That's a lot of lawn-mowing money. You'd think James Cameron had bought his tickets the way he was drumming up business. My son did admit, it wasn't quite as exciting the second and third time around.:)<br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed it, Wendy!
