Merged: The Movies Thread

Oh definitely don't wait for it to come out on video. This is as close to a must-see movie as there is.

Would you recommend we rewatch the rest of them before this one?

Saw Simpsons on Saturday. I enjoyed it, but it was a bit surreal at times to see those characters on the big screen.
I spent the first 10 minutes of the movie either thinking this same thing or "shushing" the rowdy teens sitting behind me (I've turned into an old man). The animation was just different enough from the TV show that it seemed really strange to me, maybe it was the shadows or something.

On a different note, I can't wait to see the Bourne Ultimatum.

Well I watched Bourne Identity several times this past week on TNT (or maybe it was USA) and then just before going to the movies I quickly reviewed the Bourne Supremacy plot summary on Wikipedia.

So, no you don't need to see both. Just take a quick refresher on the previous plots and characters. It definitely helps to know the story line. A bunch of us from work went and one guy who went knew nothing of the first two movies. Needless to say he didn't enjoy the movie nearly as much as the rest of us.

You know what I'd like to know? Shouldn't they have given Tracey Ullman some love in this movie? The fact that she took a couple of minutes out of her own show 20 years ago to expose The Simpsons to the world seems to be forgotten too often. I don't know what kind of relationship the Simpsons producers have with Ullman, but a little props would have been nice.

I think I give the slight edge to Bourne Identity over Bourne Ultimatum. Only because Identity was the one that started it all. But it's extremely close.

Both were better than Bourne Supremacy.

I thought the second one was better than the first. I'm looking foward to Ultimatum, I need to get the wife up to speed on the first two before going.

for me personally the second one had the potential to be better than the first because it had some awesome scenes, but I know I personally couldn't tell what the heck was going on during most action scenes because of the shoddy camera work shaking around so much.
has anyone here read any of the books?

The more I think about it, the more I think Bourne Ultimatum was the best of the three. And also, Matt Damon movies are starting to become must-sees. He's had quite a run now with The Departed, The Good Shepherd, now Bourne Ultimatum.

The Bourne series has turned out to be a quality triology which is pretty rare these days.

Why isn't Superbad on here? Judd Apatoff? Creator of great movies like the 40 year old Virgin and Knocked Up?

You know Superbad is gonna rake it in.

Yeah bourne was fantastic. I loved every minute of it. I'm going to be seeing the midnight show for rush hour 3 tonight


Back in the day, The Rush HOurs ruled. The last one came out when i was just a kid. I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for this one. I am so happy it is here. Rush hour 2 picked up where rush hour left off. I hope that Rush hour three can do the same. May very well be my favorite action comedy movie series ever. Only Bad Boys compare. Bad Boys III?
