I don't think it's copying Wilfred. As mentioned a tad earlier, it looks a lot more like "Unhappily ever after"

American Reunion was actually pretty funny. Dumb immature shit, but it was worth the admission.

I think it's getting the reviews it is because it was different. [SP]I thought it stepped up a whole different level once they hopped into the elevator. I actually liked the way they went with it from there. I'm assuming there will be another but not sure where they will go with it.[/SP]

Not a fan of LOTR? The question I have is what do you find stupid about movies like this?

They usually do.

LOTR is one of the best trilogies of all time. However, The Hobbit looks like a total crapfest. Peter Jackson is no doubt milking that franchise with this movie. He should have left that world alone because he's not going to do those movie any kind of justice with this one. The preview looked bad.

If you want to watch the hobbit just watched LOTR on fast forward. Same story in a third of the time.

I don't normally like movies with that type of humor. I know other people will love it, but I think it looks terrible.

Since you brought it up, is that a good show? When they were running promos of it before the show even started, I thought it looked funny and wanted to watch. For whatever reason, I never tuned in and missed all of season 1. Would it be worth trying to catch on FX.com or Netflix (is it even on Netflix?) ????

You don't need hulu+ to watch previews. Hope this helps.

Cabin in the Woods is receiving tremendous reviews. I've already seen a couple friends on Facebook basically saying go see it. And it appears to be receiving some "Fresh" reviews on Rotten Tomato (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_cabin_in_the_woods/). Does anyone know... is there like some big twist or something?

That movie looks terrible regardless of your sense of humor. SB has a fail taste in movies.

There are twists and the ending is goofy. I didn't think it was bad.....just surprised the critics like it. There is a murdering unicorn....do it does have that going for it lol
