That was what I was going to say. I'm pretty sure that you could say every genre has been exploited.

I wouldn't mind more werewolf movies but are they making The Wolfman.

Aren't all movies escapist? Even if everything in a movie could happen it's still not your own life up there on the screen.

You're correct and also all movies are fiction. It doesn't matter if they appear real, they're all lies.

It's unfortunate that it hasn't. I read some more about the movie and it seems they combined the first 3 books of the series together and it also says based on, so it will have plenty of changes from what the books are. I'm sure I will still end up seeing it though, because my son will want to.

Oddly enough, it was showing at fantastic fest and it got a good respones, not a great one, but one that said it's worth checking out.

Anyway if we're floting down the path of big flops look at this.

How about this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wu2r603EEPk I saw this trailer in the theater and din't laugh once.

It's a kids movie, lighten up.

Yes, vampires are stupid and overdone. I would be happy if there never was another vampire book, TV show, or movie. The vampire genre is a sinkhole of (un)originality.

Boobs never get old... neither do farts.

Not every movie is made to be a dramatic classic.

Foggy · 10-25-2009, 09:01 PM

I watched it, it wasn't dreadful, but it isn't worth the theatrical fund, rental or TV is best enjoyed for this movie, mattinee if you are really eager to watch it.

That's been over done also. Reality is over rated.
