I really wanna see The Princess and The Frog.  :P

But Avatar also looks pretty epic. I mean, have you seen those effects?! And the story is provoking me to spend $11 on a ticket.
Avatar does look and sound pretty neat.  The Princess and the Frog, though....

(Not that it's counting against the movie.)  Frog getting hit by a book:  Rated G.  Human getting hit by a book:  Rated PG.
Best.  Cane.  EVER!

I've heard nothing but good reviews for it. They call it an "instant classic."

Maybe it will make it into KH.. will Sora be black...?  ;)

Did Sora look Chinese in The Land of Dragons? Not really. XD

So, then. Toy Story 3. Who else is looking forward to it!? 8D



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Mysterious F.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, the number of positive reviews both movies have at this point are:

The Princess and the Frog - 83% (out of 105 reviews) - Consensus: The warmth of traditional Disney animation makes this occasionally lightweight fairy-tale update a lively and captivating confection for the holidays.

Avatar - 86% (out of 58 reviews) - Consensus: It might be more impressive on a technical level than as a piece of storytelling, but Avatar reaffirms James Cameron's singular gift for imaginative, absorbing filmmaking.

In other words, general consensus is that both are good but could have been better.

I wanna see Toy Story 3! I hear Andy is in college in that movie... but it'll probably fall short of expectation. Like TS2 did.

Mysterious F.

Toy Story 2 made more money than the original, and, according to Rotten Tomatoes, 100% of critics liked it, out of 130 reviews (twice the number the original has, though it was released before the website was founded). If anything, it surpassed expectations.

MagmarFire

Yeah, TS2 is considered to be equal, if not better, than the original.

I disagree. Zerg just kinda pissed me off.

I hope, however, TS3 kicks butt. I'd pay whatever price they present for it.

Aw. :(

But still, just saying: Anyone who makes pretty much the best Star Wars reference in history needs major recognition. :P

Tru dat.

To anyone who hasn't seen Sherlock Holmes and wants to see it, I recommend it. Effects are awesome, the plot is put together real well (if you pay attention), and it has it's thrilling moments.

Hi no Seijin

It could have been uncanceled.

I'd like to see The Lovely Bones as well.

Speaking of video game movies, I read a rumor from a few years ago that Quentin Tarantino was practically begging Valve to let him make a Half-Life movie. Now that would've been awesome.
What, you expect me to say something witty?

Look on Peter Jacksons IMDB page
its announced date set for 2012

MagmarFire

Huh, 2012, eh? It's kind of appropriate, if you think about it. XD

I also heard that Stephen Spielberg himself wanted to work on a Zelda movie. If that rumor was true, Nintendo turned him down, of course.

But still, hearing that Stephen Spielberg of all people respects the Zelda series was really awesome for me. ;D
