I think a lot of people go to these movies not so much for the plot and ****, but for the special effects on the BIG screen. It can make a ****ty movie good, because its more intense than at home

Well I can watch any move at home and get the full theater effect, but only certain movies do I like to go see in the theater.....

But sorry Psycho, I still thought Transformer Rocked! I loved the sound and the special effect on the movie. My couch trembled half way through that movie....

Sorry Gunner, I have to disagree....

Specially when you consider that any movie worth seeing has a good number of people in the movie with you and you always have idiots playing on their phones, talking or kicking your chair.... Sure you can tell the people to put the phones away before you shove it up their A$$, tell them to shut up or tell the idiot behind you to quit tapping your chair BUT that all detracts from the movie.....

PLUS Have you EVER sat in a movie theater chair that's as comfortable as your couch?

LoL....I pondered getting the 73" but my rooms only 28'x 15' so I thought it would be too big. Plus I have "PBP" (Picture Beside Picture) a 40" Tube TV right next to the big screen: For those days that there are two games on at the same time :wink:

On the US front no movement in ranking but the dollar value picked up as follows:

Monday $2,112,203 for a total of $473,194,356
Tuesday $2,148,332 for a total of $475,342,688

Pretty respectable for a Monday & Tuesday and I'm pretty confident it will hit $500,000,000 by the end of it's run in the US.

On the World front we had a huge jump, which makes me think Batman might make it into the top five, coming in with a total of $803,942,688 The Dark Knight jumped SEVEN places since Sunday and lands at #18:


19 - 2007 - Shrek the Third = $798,976,012
20 - 1977 - Star Wars Ep. IV: A New Hope = $797,900,000
21 - 2004 - Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban = $795,538,952
22 - 1982 - ET: The Extra-Terrestrial = $792,910,554
23 - 1997 - The Lost World: Jurassic Park = $786,686,679
24 - 2004 - Spider-Man 2 = $784,024,485
25 - 1994 - The Lion King = $783,839,505
26 - 2008 - Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull = $780,042,949

Interesting note that it already passed Indiana Jones but Indiana Jones is still active internationally and Jumped the previously listed movies (I'll try to keep track of this too as a side note)

You know I thought Transformers was cool, but the transform and fight sequences reminded me of the fight scenes in Spider-man 3. Very blurry. It was difficult to follow what was happening. Most of the time I just waited until the movement stopped to see what was going on.
