I thought the 1990 movie got it right...very right... up until Cap got frozen, and then it was pretty bad. (Nice seeing Billy Mumy in it, too.) This one? If Joe Johnston's doing it, I am feeling fine. Joe's got a heckuva track record of feel-good movies that I love, like Honey I Shrunk the Kids, The Rocketeer, October Sky (a beautiful movie) and JP3 (Jurassic Park 3 is in some ways the best one because it doesn't have Spielberg's weaknesses).

It sounds compelling, so it must be the execution. We NEED more movies about pharmaceutical companies working for cures for diseases to counter all the hate that the left engenders for them. Unfortunately, fighting disease is a hard thing to make work for film. Similar to onscreen computer hacking scenes, which may be essential to the plot but dull, working in a lab to try this experiment and failing and then that experiment and failing is BORING to watch. Even good-but-not-great films like Lorenzo's Oil and Awakenings are slowed down by the interminable onscreen portrayal of testing.

Me too.
I just don't understand why it's the atheists who are against inclusiveness. I don't think I've ever met (though I'm sure they exist) a Christian conservative who believed that the Republican party should drive out anyone who isn't Christian, but there are so many atheists who think the GOP could really succeed if it wasn't for all the God people in it. Yeah, good luck with that.

Frankly, I get tired of the "pox on both their houses" style of blogging.

"I declared threat condition red." -- Hmm. Homeland Security reference, too? I haven't seen this movie, and I have no intention to. Given how lousy just this sample of script is, I cannot believe I'm missing anything but awesome visuals.

"glamorous circle jerk keeps celebrities in our site" -- It took me a moment to realize you meant "in our sight", not that the circle jerk keeps celebrities coming to Big Hollywood. Come on, people, proofread your posts!

Amen! Of course, her finest performance was on television, playing LuAnn Platter for over a decade.

Wow. There must be an aggressive organization of MJ fans who patrol for anti-Jackson pieces and then hit hard before any of the board regulars have even opened the post. This is just a bombardment, all leveling abuse and charges of perversion while telling Michael Jackson (who is, I'm sorry to say, dead and not worried about legal proof at this point) that he is innocent until proven guilty. Just a note to all you MJ fans: dead people get their just deserts.

That's a blackout joke! Roll credits. You can't top it.

I salute your bravery. Thank you for your service in the fight!
