Yes, it was a Riley quote.<br /><br />dub - You are right. Claymationy. And the sad thing is that I'm sure I would have really enjoyed the story.<br /><br />Miranda - It's on. 9 and New Moon, that is. Yeah, there was nothing really objectionable for me for The Princess and the Frog. It wasn't awesome, but it was good.<br /><br />Dana - I recently joined Netflix and have been enjoying it a lot. But I might quit soon. I just don't watch a lot of stuff.Cardinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260768171568324499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-75356488659190385842010-01-24T22:31:37.539-07:002010-01-24T22:31:37.539-07:00You hit the nail on the head with the Vin Diesel/D...You hit the nail on the head with the Vin Diesel/Dwayne Johnson comparison. At least for me. The have a sort of "sameness".<br /><br />Not that it matters but I think that I'm gonna agree with you on ranking HP as number one. I'm totally surprised by that but I did go see it four times. That's gotta say something about how much I enjoyed it. <br /><br />Reading your post reminds me that there are a lot of movies from last year that I haven't watched yet. I should renew my netflix subscription.Dana Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13015202853572167592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-13380908367748490042010-01-23T10:25:36.664-07:002010-01-23T10:25:36.664-07:00Yeah Movies!

I didn't think it was a particularly great year for movies. <br />I wouldn't put the Blindside in my top ten, as Sandra did bug me more than she usually does.<br />Frost/Nixon--I forgot how awesome it was. <br />After a second viewing I would put Julie/Julia higher on my list.<br />Your Princess and the Frog rating surprises me. It was cute, and I laughed out loud more than a few times, but still, so...expected.<br />I very much want to see 9--not nine--so let's get on that. Also I really want to see New Moon with you. Because of you, not because of it being New Moon, at all.<br />That is all.Mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10285298476199018877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-56190777783644804062010-01-21T10:10:14.774-07:002010-01-21T10:10:14.774-07:00One of my favorite movies of the year was "Th...One of my favorite movies of the year was "The Fantastic Mr. Fox."

The way my friend talked about it, I thought it would <i>actually</i> function as a "self-help" movie for delusional girls (which I have considered myself in times past). I was a little shocked to find out that it was actually the opposite - yes, another chick flick.<br /><br />My parents really like Fireproof.

It was kind of random, and I wasn't sure anyone would. :)<br /><br />banana - Well, I guess it partially explains why it took you guys a month to watch HP6 on DVD! I was glad to have experience Star Trek with you, too.<br /><br />tearese - Yeah, for some reason, I've been getting lots of spam recently. I'm leaving that one there, though, because it's so funny that it's a totally random comment that doesn't actually have anything to do with my post.

My mom didn't, but I thought they portrayed a deranged drug taking, alcoholic genious very well. :) I liked Harry Potter. We just saw the second Night at the Museum...I thought it was funny, but was glad we didn't pay to see it. I agree with your assessment of He's Just Not that into you...haven't seen most of the other ones. :)KieraAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02780529288762190356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-82383359496553258552010-01-19T09:48:31.861-07:002010-01-19T09:48:31.861-07:00looks like you've got a spam comment here.

I don't even see 10 new movies in a year to be able to make a list. <br /><br />I think I liked Star Trek best of all the (3 or 4) new movies I saw this year. <br /><br />I saw Harry Potter in the theater, and it bugged me. I liked it a ton better when I saw it on video. I think I just have to get over the variations from the book story line in order to like the H.P. movies. Now, I like them all.<br /><br />Thanks for the reviews. Always entertaining.bananahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02049342894616879229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-57067024850271769022010-01-18T21:49:09.559-07:002010-01-18T21:49:09.559-07:00Love the National Treasure reference.

I loved your post, especially the artificially inseminated, and the xxx parts. hahaha.<br />I saw the first three and the 10th movies on your list. I thought GI Joe was lame too, but Joseph thinks we need to buy it sometime. I think its a guy/nostalgia thing.<br />I bought Start Trek for Joseph for Christmas, and I actually loved it...suprising since I've not seen most the original Star Trek movies, and was more a fan of Next Generation. Now I desire to see the earlier films. Although, I kept waiting for Spock/Sylar to throw out his hand and cut someones head open with his other powers that they didn't mention. Oh, and where was R2D2?<br />I saw Terminator Salvation and liked it. I never saw the movie before that one in the series though, with the girl, because i heard it was lame.<br />I didn't realize there were two "9" movies. I saw Cloudy WACOM the other day, it was weirder than I expected. I felt like the end of the movie was written by the writers from Ren and Stimpy, it was so random and bizarre.<br />Where the Wild things are had cool sets and cinematography. I took Elora to it, and felt sad that it wasn't as lighthearted and happy as the commercials depicted. It was a lot of arguing and meanness.<br /><br />We bought Harry Potter too, FYI.tearesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362666264858845959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16912651.post-82873382270450152442010-01-18T14:00:25.109-07:002010-01-18T14:00:25.109-07:00cash - I know!
