Hooker sandwich in front of the movie screen.

They'll probably thank you for drawing their attention away from the movie.

If you have friends to make amusing commentary with, $5 to see it might not be that bad after all. I at least had fun doing that.

Also, late response is late but:

or for anyone that didn't understand that, Lazy eyes mean 3D glasses are worthless.

If you use the 3D glasses it's not blurry. Even if you don't get the 3D effect, it fixes the crazy blurry look that the 3D scenes have without the glasses.

To be honest, my eyes are fine and the 3D effects were still terrible. Looked very, very post-production and sloppily done.

That Owl movie though, wow!

See the Movie

This also applies to Eclipse, which is actually more entertaining.

Arcanum · 07-04-2010, 07:10 PM

Right, thanks everyone. I think I'll pass up on it, that hooker sandwich sounds like a better deal.

And Token, I'd have to be shackled and dragged into the theater before I see another Twilight movie. I got suckered into watching the first one and that only fueled my hate for the series.

Token · 07-04-2010, 07:17 PM

Was that with someone who took it seriously, or someone who wanted to take the piss? Cuz that makes all the difference.

Arcanum · 07-04-2010, 08:10 PM

Someone who took it seriously, unfortunately. And nobody I know would want to go see it just to make fun of it, regardless how amusing it might turn out, because in the end we would still be watching Twilight.

So am I the only one who actually liked the movie? I did not watch the animated series yet, at least not that many episodes. But I thought it was a decent movie. I suppose that I will be considered an idiot for thinking that way, but I have never worried about what the "cool" kids think anyway.

My main issue with the movie was that it was pretty much like watching a very poorly done cliff-notes version of the series in live action with sorta flat dialog. The special effects were really pretty good but everything that made me like the characters from the series was sorta glossed over. Another thing that sorta struck me as funky was that hardly anyone's names were pronounced properly. It's not like this was some foreign show that got translated into English and the director decided that using the original pronunciations would be more true to the series. This was an American work with the English pronunciations being correct. There was really no reason for all the vowels in all the names to be drawn out weird.

But yeah, there was a lot about this movie that rubbed me wrong. It seems they really skimped on a lot of story and character development because they assumed everyone who watched the movie would know what's going on. While was a good assumption, it really was no excuse to do what they did with the story. It was really like watching scrambled 5 minute clips from random episodes from season one with a lot of the stuff that mattered strained out.
