Both good choices (seen both this week) but Grown Ups is one of those that you don't REALLY like at first, and then you see it a couple times and it really grows on you. Not to mention the scene with the girl checking her car...

Pretty sure he made a 2 second cameo in Gmas Boy, LOVE that movie btw.

That is a good scene I'll give ya that. Grandma's Boy is one of my favorite comedies ever.

Can't figure out a reason why, but I thought that Grandma's Boy was a pretty good movie. Don't understand the whole JD acting as a robot angle though. That was a bit annoying.

Went and saw the movie Brave yesterday. For a kids movie, I thought it was pretty good. For all of those people with kids, I would recommend it.

Thanks for this, I've been debating if I should take the 3 year old or not. Usually if she's not begging me from the commercials I just skip it, she's been kinda lukewarm on it, but I think she'll really like it if I take her.

I heard its much more of a pure kids movie unlike most of Pixar's other movies. I still wanna see it but definitely waiting for bluray.

You're welcome and thank you for the increase. It does have it's sad moments like any kids movie, but nothing too tragic. There was a lot of good moments in there too. Did very well in the box office on Friday.

Pixar mentioned Steve Jobs during the end credits of the movie. Thought that was a nice touch.

I found this to be fairly helpful, as far as reviews go.

Jeff Who Lives At Home - 8/10

Solid little indie film. Funny with some heart. Jason Segel and Ed Helms are both very good in this.

Midnight In Paris - 6/10

I had relatively high expectations for this based on what I'd heard about it but I just couldn't get into it. It had its charms but not enough to keep me from getting bored.

Notable other Pixar sequel notes: Monsters University comes out next summer and rumors continue to swirl about Toy Story 4.

Apparently theres a movie coming out Friday?

I'm either seeing it Saturday or Sunday.

Are you talking about that new Batman movie? I'll probably check it out.

[BobPhelan]

Of course haha. I wonder if it'll beat the avengers' opening day weekend.

[Chris B]

Of course haha. I wonder if it'll beat the avengers' opening day weekend.

Haha I was joking. I think it will be. I probably will wait until next weekend to go see it in theaters.

[SportsGuy]

Of course haha. I wonder if it'll beat the avengers' opening day weekend.

I heard it probably won't because its not in 3d, so the Avengers gets that extra boost in money.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Going to see it tomorrow night, can't wait!

[BobPhelan]

I heard it probably won't because its not in 3d, so the Avengers gets that extra boost in money.

Thats a good point but this will be in IMAX. Not as much extra as 3D but still a boost. I say it ends up around $185 million.

[Why Not?]

I've been in a movie theatre maybe four times in the last five years. I think Step Brothers was the last movie that wasn't an animated matinee. I saw something about a month ago, but I honestly don't remember the name of it.
