I caught Wanderlust.

It had a few good laughs, but I was slightly disappointed. I thought it was going to be much funnier than it was. Jennifer Aniston is starting to show her age. There was a scene in movie where Aniston and Rudd were traveling in a car, and the camera was focused on their faces for several minutes, and I couldn't help but think, 'Wow... she's not that drop-dead starlet she used to be.' Now don't get me wrong... she's still super sexy & hott. I'd probably place her in my top 50, maybe even top 25; I'm simply saying she's not as hot as she used to be (top 10 - 15). She's starting to show her age.

Aniston wore some nice jean shorts tho almost the entire movie. If she proved one thing at all, she at least proved her legs are heavenly.

Paul Rudd was okay. I love Rudd, but he just proves time & time again that he is not funny enough to carry a movie himself. He really is hilarious / better-off when he's a supporting actor.

I think I just wet my pants a little. The first trailer didn't look anything special, but after watching this one... OMG I can't wait.

Looks like a total CGI fest. Didn't expect him to be Hawkeye either.

Also seems weird that they used the same villain from the Thor movie, Loki. Seems like they should have used a new one. Galactus would have been cool.

No way Galactus could ever be incorporated into a movie (see Fantastic Four and how miserably they failed). Thanos would be a better/safer bet.

Anyone else laugh at Scarlett loading a hand gun at the end of the trailer? The army has .50cal machine guns, but she's going to kick ass with her compact handgun...gtfo.

Dont know anything about Thanos outside of Campcom VS Marvel video games. The fantastic four movies were just a fail in general, nothing was done right in that trash of a franchise.

Yeah, that's totally ridiculous.

Iron Man: Awesome technology and genius
Thor: Norse god
Hulk: Transforms into radioactive super strength beast
Captain America: Specifically designed to be ultimate fighter
Hawkeye: Really good aim with a bow? Trained by Captain America.
Scarlett Johansson: ... Glock. And tight-fitting clothes.

No one is debating whether they'd fuck her or not. The only person who would is Gut.

Just thought her pea shooter compared to everyone else was funny lol

Her outfit should be clear then - this way she still has the protection of the suit while we get to see her amazing body.

I caught Silent House today. It was much more entertaining than I thought it would be from the previews. The main character is Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's little sister and she looks pretty good.

I heard on the radio today that Eddie Murphy's new movie was pretty bad. I hear a lot of the critics are giving it 1 and a half stars. Ha right now it has a 0 percent with 31 rotten reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. It has a 27 on Meta.

I missed the advanced screening tickets. Hopefully I can catch another showing, otherwise I probably won't be seeing it (until dvd, maybe).

Saw Wrath of the Titans and 21 Jump Street over the weekend.

Both were good. Wrath of the Titans wasn't as good as the first movie, but it was solid. 3D effects were actually pretty good as well.

21 Jump Street was just hilarious.

I figured Wrath would be better than the first just from the previews. Shouldn't judge a book by it's cover I guess. I'm going to check it out tomorrow.

I know I've said it already (and plenty of others have too), but if you haven't seen 21 Jump Street yet, you need too.
