There is nothing terrible about Napoleon Dynamite, IMO. It was purposefully campy and what-not, but it was a well done movie.
Zoolander, on the other hand, was funny at times, but was way overdone.

What's your definition of "campy"? My point is that it wasn't suppose to be an amazing, quality movie. It was suppose to be stupid and terrible, and that's what makes it funny. They did a great job.

Napolean Dynamite was pretty stupid, but like you said it was very quotable and I found some parts pretty funny. Only worth watching once.
And what do you guys mean about Fever Pitch being a dagger? It's not good? I've heard some good things about it.

Yeah, so is it good, or are you saying it's basically one of those "let's throw something together and put it in theaters" movies?

Yeah, I'm a huge sports fan, and I love sports movies. I'm gonna watch it now, hopefully it'll be pretty good.
My fav recent sports movies have been Coach Carter and Glory Road, but I don't expect this to be even nearly as good as those two.

Yeah, everybody at my job started quoting lines around the time it came out, and when i saw it few months later, i found maybe one scene funny. It just wasn't good. At least snakes on a plane had a plot.

Fever Pitch is a gawd-awful chick flick (and I enjoy a lot of chick flicks), one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.....
But that's me.

 It takes a really bad movie for me to not like it, and although this one's ending could have been better, like 5-0 said, if the Sox had lost, I still enjoyed it a lot. It definetly could qualify as a chick flick, but I actually don't mind those that much either. It had enough sports to keep me interested and enough emotional stuff to make it a feel good movie.

Lucky # Sl3vin, I think that's how it is spelled. Solid movie, and Josh Hartnett whom I am not a fan of manages not to destroy the flick.

Finally caved and watch The Bourne Identity. Good action flick. I'm probably going to watch Bourne Supremency today.

Has anyone seen the relatively new movie that came out on DVD a month or so ago with Denzel Washington. It's about like a bank robbery and hostage situation, and I think it's called Inside Man or something like that, but I'm not sure. I was thinking about seeing it, is it any good?

Yes, it's called The Inside Man. Watch it. It is good. You can never go wrong with a three-headed monster like Lee/Denzel/Clive. One of the better B movies of the year.

It didn't seem confusing to me. It had an element that a whole lot of action movies don't, being fast-paced. There was always something happening, and it all worked within the storyline. It did have its rough spots, but solid overall. The reason i watched the first one is because i heard Supremacy was really really good, and they're coming out with a third next year.

on the bourne talk, i liked the first one alot. The second one? eh. Not as much. They had some horrible camera work in the second one. I know the reason they did it was to make you feel like you were part of the fighting but all it ended up doing was making it look like the camera man couldnt hold the camera steady.

Other than that, I really enjoyed the movie. In fact, I think I like it more than the first, although I really like them both. There isn't much Matt Damon does that I don't enjoy, although Oceans 12 would head that list.

We saw "The Science of Sleep" last night.
I don't think this one is playing in very many theaters, it's an independent film, directed by the same guy who did Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mine, and it takes on that same "stream of consciousness" sort of weirdness to it. It's about this guy who sometimes has trouble differentiating his weird ass dreams from reality. and of course there is a girl. It was pretty good. I enjoyed it. http://www.apple.com/trailers/warner...cienceofsleep/

American History X.
This movie was great. Ed Norton blew me away. It takes an actor that's truly dedicated to his craft to play Ed Norton's character.
