  1. It's not true. The guy made it all up
  2. The animation was well incredible. Even when the movie got boring I was just amazed at what Pixar could do with a computer. The animation is just fun to watch
  3. It wouldn't have made much sense for Farquaad to be in Shrek 2, but I get your point. Most of the characters in Shrek 2 didn't interest me very much. The Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming weren't exactly good villains. Puss In Boots was probably the only character I liked. Which cartoon short are you talking about? Faarquad and Donkey were the best parts of Shrek 1. Donkey got castrated with Shrek's Am I Good Enough for Fiona complex. Of course they did this- IN THE FIRST FUCKING MOVIE. I thought Prince Charming would rock thanks to Everett but the whole thing with the Fairy Godmother was just stupid. The movie was just too dramatic and it required me to care about Shrek and Fiona when I don't and never did. Shrek worked because it was bitingly funny and wasn't afraid to take potshots at anyone. I hope if Shrek 3 what's rumoured (Something about Shrek and Donkey being knights of the roundtable) they just stick to them two having fun and ripping on Disney
  4. Don Knotts is in it too. Awesome. So is Amy Sedaris and Joan Cusack. I hate how Dreamworks gets every big star they can think of and throws him in a cartoon. Pixar doesn't get huge A-list names but they fit their characters and work perfectly
  5. Anyone else love the cartoon short right before it? I thought it was so cute and funny
  6. I think too many people were in awe of Toy Story's animation and ignored the fact that the plot was weak at times and the story meandered along for a good bit. They fixed all that and more for Toy Story 2- which is why I love it so much
  7. Cars looks weird. There was a trailer for another animated film in front of Incredibles- Chicken Little. It looked really funny
  8. Shrek 1 was this one big fuck you to Disney and the characters seemed secondary. Shrek 2 was all about Shrek and Fiona and I just couldn't care about them enough to sustain my interest in the movie. It just dragged a lot. And the movie lacked Faarquad
  9. The Avril Lavigne concert was awesome last night. She played three instruments! Samuel L. Jackson is awesome in the movie simply because he's Samuel L. Jackson.
  10. Agreed- Shrek 2 wasn't that good at all. They spent way too much time on the Does Fiona love me plot which was so boring. The animation wasn't as good as Pixar either. Yet it becomes the 3rd highest grossing film ever. A shame
  11. Dreamworks is a bunch of fucking douchebags for releasing the overrated Shrek 2 the same day as the Incredibles
  12. I saw it on Wednesday- it's very violent and intense- it's not for little kids.
  13. No way. Not at all. Toy Story 2 is incredible. The voice cast is awesome, it has good songs, it has a great message, and the movie was very action packed and had great animation for the time. Finding Nemo is right up there just for being hilarious the whole way through. Ellen DeGeneres really should've gotten some sort of Oscar for that
  14. And that is where my respect for your opinions ends. It was good but the last 20 minutes were awful. It was this nice little quirky little indie but then they kissed in a rain and then they had that horrible ending where he got off the plane. What is this Friends? Monsters Inc. was a fine movie but it was WAY too cutsie. I hated thar 4 year old girl and the movie got way too draggy at the end. A Bug's Life is an awesome movie. It's action packed and the climax where the bugs are fighting Hopper kicked so much ass. So nice and violent. And it had such an awesome voice cast
  15. The Incredibles was really good but calling it the best Pixar film yet when Finding Nemo and Toy Story 2 are still out there is wrong. I thought the movie was really really good, very funny at times and the animation was awe inspiring. I think it got a bit too bogged down in the middle and was a bit too violent but it was a lot of fun. Craig T. Nelson was terrific. I give it ***1/2 and rank it 4th amongst the Pixar films. 1. Toy Story 2. Finding Nemo 3. Bug's Life 4. Incredibles 5. Toy Story 6. Monsters Inc And DH- Garden State wasn't that good. Pixar blows Dreamsworks so far out the water- it's not even funny
  16. Given all the headlines I can come up with for copy editing class I pretty much am Mr. Sexist
  17. You're not very bright. And yes I was wrong on Rico- oops
  18. Everytime we go around the room and say why want to be journalists we always get a bunch of liberal answers and then I say: I want to go to hockey games and write about them. That sounds cool
  19. Some Norm standup- http://www.fakenews.net/archive/transcript..._26_improv.html
  20. Norm's standup is really crass and dirty. I can't wait to hear him about talk about the tragic events of 9/15
  21. He probably was a better manager then Bob Brenly
  22. I never saw Last Comic Standing- what were the ringers?
  23. The press leans liberal because most journalists are liberal. Simple as that. I'm one of only two-three people who don't hate Bush in my programme
  24. But I'm thinking: They've auditioned the people who have lots of improv experience and if they didn't want them- why do they want them now? It just seems stupid
