Beerfest. I have never seen it, but it's written by a drunken idiot , so its gotta be funny! it involves nudity, and a whole lot of other crap. over 20's only I think, so it's a must see for all you older guys! [er...proberly not, but oh well.]

I think most people over 20 have matured past that kind of humor.

Heck, most people over 15 have matured past that kind of humor.

Ratatouille is great, btw. One of the best Pixars I've watched.

Don't you dare badmouth Happy Feet. :mad: Just because they're animated doesn't mean they can't be fun for others than children. Sure, animated movies tend to seem childish, just because children as their target group but they still contain humor and references than even adults can laugh at. Maybe you'll actually go through watching one the next time before you say you don't like them.

Ooh, ooh - 4 days until The Simpsons Movie! I'll be sleeping right outside the ticket counter in the theater if anyone should need me.

The Simpsons film will probably be terrible, if the recent series are anything to go by.
Plus it has Green Day in, which ruins everything :p:

I loved that movie because it actually gave me deja vú.
I didn't actually see it, I just got deja vú from the previews.

I think that they showed a preview half a year or so before it came out, so by the time the ads were REALLY advertising the movie, I had forgotten about it.

If they did that on purpose, then it would be the best ad campaign ever (To me, at least).

Transformers.
:p
Disturbia.

Yeah, both good movies, especially Transformers, possibly the best movie ever.
Also Green Street Hooligans (awesome), The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, Godfather 1 & 2 and things like Spiderman (most marvel movies are alright), Pirates of the Carribean. I like a bit of variation. Some animated movies are great too like The Incredibles and Ratatoullie; Pixar is awesome.

And Live Free Or Die Hard (or Die Hard 4.0 in some places) (Die Hard 4th installment)
