I mean, Sharon Stone is a bit old and if she sis that leg uncrossing scene, her uterus might fall out from all the couch catings and "birth control procedures" that she's had.
Well, Ice Age 2 got the top dolloar this week while Basic Instinct 2 did nada. Now you would think that Hollywood would see that some things just aren't meant to be sequels. The movies just are not very good these days and especially when you go out to the movies and throw down $40 to watch crap that you can wait for the DVD and have the movie...

So here's the question, will going to the movies go the way of the dinosaur or is it still the way to go for certain pictures? I would like this thread to revolve around personal experiences with the movies and please discuss anything about the movies; critiques, movies choices,etc. I think this could be very interesting.

See Ice Age 2, it was great.
Personally I hate going to the movies these days, last one I saw in the theatre was Saw2. Even that was a horrible expierence, first it costs 20$'s. Then I end up siting behind a loudmouthed black women (sorry sometimes sterotypes are true) wouldnt shut up through the entire movie, talking on the phone, talking to her friends about the plot of the movie. Sometimes even oppressively tall stature isnt enough to shut some people up. In all honestly DVD's are far better, you actually get to hear and enjoy the movie, and its only 5$'s at blockbuster, and you even get to see it multiple times incase you missed something.
