Movies

I'm not, really. It could've had a slightly larger let-down, before I'd be surprised. I read some imdb-reviews yesterday..

Posted by: Facto on Aug 01, 04:19 in response to Jelly's post Yup. I'm really surprised by the magnitude of the letdown.

There were clear signs there that the movie is plain unfunny for stretches at a time - at least to a good few people (and they mentioned noone in the theater was anywhere near laughing for those stretches, plus some people even left the auditorium), and that it's too long.

Some quite good reviews also, so perhaps I'll go see it, and make my own judgment. But it'll hardly be my no one choice - most likely I'll wait till it's available on DVD, and watch it with a buddy on a home entertainment center.

SM: funny 8/22...aliens 2.8/8.2...collector 1.2/3.1 (link) tealfan Jul 31, 22:29

I guess it was all a dog and pony show. At least I was close on Aliens and Collector {nm} JackO Jul 31, 22:30

I just wish I'd seen a trailer or ads for FUNYP when it was still almost H$120. {nm} Cuzzin Todd Aug 01, 07:34

Wrong on COLCT, but got the other two right {nm} ChrisEW Aug 01, 08:59

had Funny wrong and the other two right...still didn't help {nm} tealfan Jul 31, 22:33

If those numbers hold true then I guess I'd be 2/3. {nm} MoneyMagnet Jul 31, 22:37

Same here... FUNYP is going to hurt, though {nm} secretstalker Aug 01, 03:49

Yup. I'm really surprised by the magnitude of the letdown. {nm} Jelly Aug 01, 03:52

Yeah, especially how many people I know went to see FUNYP yesterday... {nm} secretstalker Aug 01, 04:01

As with so many openers, two sides...will the talents' past performances continue despite a genre change. I went with Sandler's drama Catzan Aug 01, 09:49

I'm sure you have.. Rock'n'roll, honcho! Facto Aug 01, 10:41

ugh gonna take a beating, 0/2 on funny and collector {nm} Instro Jul 31, 23:08

Toldja I was counting tumbleweeds! 3/3 if that holds Catzan Jul 31, 23:09

You flipped the aliens?? Why, you...... JohnGilmour Aug 01, 02:11

Frak.. I have this CCleaner routine I do at least once a day - seems it wipes out my pre-set handles all over the web, also... {nm} Facto Aug 01, 02:12

check out that (potential) hold for G-Force {nm} tealfan Jul 31, 23:19

And also note that it's already priced to delist at over 3.0. {nm} secretstalker Aug 01, 03:58

2 for 3. I shorted Funny at 80 and Collector at 13 but went long on the kid flick {nm} Smelly Monkey Jul 31, 23:58

0/2 but i only went long 9k shares of FUNYP; 5k shares of ANATC (i went 40k shares of GFORC last weekend) john Aug 01, 02:07

That was a smart move. I entirely forgot about the warrants and kept my long on FUNYP {nm} Smelly Monkey Aug 01, 02:33

3/3 if Steve's got them right. {nm} grammar Aug 01, 02:26

Nikki agrees on FUNYP, but says 3.3/10 for ANATC. Jelly Aug 01, 03:55
