Daisy McLintock Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 It was hilarious. This was one movie I kept laughing throughout the whole thing. Funniest movie I've seen in a long time. Beats any Jim Carey movie I've seen.Wanted to see Australia but my friend didn't want to see it. 4 Christmases ended being great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marvin Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Daisy you're the first person who has given a positive review to that movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelina Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Anyone see "Twilight"? My wife and 13 year old daughter are addicted to the books. Heck my daughter read 3 of those books inside of two weeks (must've averaged 200 pages per night). It been a nice bonding experience for the two of them...albeit over vampires!John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollies65 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Let me add 'Dumb and Dumber' AND 'Me Myself and Irene'. I'don't care if it's not cool to like Jim Carey...many of his films are laugh riots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJ Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Personally even the clips to that movie (4 Christmases) made it appauling at best... A baby puking isn't worth my time thank you lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy McLintock Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Marvin - I never did agree with the critics. It's always been my opinion vs theirs, lol.MJ - OMG that was THE funniests part of the movie. The whole thing was well done and in very good taste.This was not slapstick. I hate slapstick. I'd rather drink a cilantro smoothie than see a slapstick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid C. Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hey Daisy, what is your take on Laurel and Hardy. I'm really interested. Reid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy McLintock Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi Reid,It's been a long time since I've seen Laurel and Hardy. All I can remember was seeing them run parallel to Gilligan and the Skipper -- hitting each other over the head repeatedly. The Skipper used his hand, and Hardy used a pan, or was it Laurel that used the pan..I remember thinking "God what a stupid idiot that skinny guy is." They were both just pitiful. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Daisy were Laurel and Hardy also stranded on that island? I must have missed that episode of "Gilligan's Island." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollies65 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Don't tell me you don't appreciate the comedic genius of The Three Stooges! That will be the last straw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretender Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I saw Twilight last week. My wife,being a big fan of the books, wasn't too happy with some of the changes they made for the movie. However, I, not having read the books,really enjoyed it.As for critics,most of them I don't pay any attention to,the exception being Roger Ebert. He's from nearby Champaign and holds his Overlooked Film Festival there every year.I've seen a lot of really wonderful films there,most of which I hadn't even heard of previously.

Ecstasy Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 "Pure stupidity at its best". LOL That's always been my opinion as well. I guess that's why opinions vary! I do think overall that my experience has been that most men love the stooges and most women hate them. Not to say there aren't exceptions, just an observation from what I've seen and heard over the years.I never listen to critics. I never agree with them afterwards, either. <smirk> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
