yeah, but toy story is rounding on 19 years old. I guess I think of kids movies more as pre and post son (7 year old now).Andrew74 said:
I feel for you. I saw it the first weekend, after having only seen a couple really short commercials (that I thought made it look bad) and no previews. I'm certain that I enjoyed it much more not knowing anything about it than I would have otherwise. I had no idea Batman would be in it so much or be that kind of character, for example.Bull Dozier said:
Yep, I fully expected it to be lots of super heroes throughout, since every one liner in the previews were from the different super heroes, and one from the main character. Lame.
bits and pieces. illegally aquired it and was doing stuff around house while wife and son watched. I could be wrong, but it didn't seem to break from the princess+tag along+annoying songs formula they have run into the ground. planned to sit and watch it later though.

It's actually a story about the love between two sisters and not a prince and princess. The rest is pretty "Disney" but I wasn't expecting A Clockwork Orange when I went in there. Watching it with my two little daughters might have added to my experience.
Imagining this in Jack Nicholson's voice is cracking me up.Kids liked it a lot. I did as well. I wouldn't put it above Shrek, Toy Story, or Despicable Me in terms of adult humor, but definitely good enough to hold my interest and they nailed the ending.
And we sang Everything Is Awesome all weekend.
I liked it but I think this is an adult movie designed to get parents to take their kids to the theater and not a kids movie that has elements that adults will like. Because of that, as kids movies go, I have to just give it an average rating.
Was perfect for my nephew who is 10. He was just dying over the double-couch and Batman saying what a cool guy Bruce Wayne was.
I get what you are saying. No way my 7yo 'got' everything that was going on and all the jokes/themes, (he seemed a tad confused by the last 10 mins, so we talked a little about that) but he still had a blast and for the first time said he would want to see a movie we saw in the theater again - wondered aloud if his mom would want to see it with him.
Yeah, so this thing was impossible. I happened to be in the area in the morning and by opening time the line to get into Legoland was backed up so far the exits on I-5 were clogged. We're talking a good 2 or 3 mile line. We said forget it.
My boys are still talking about it 3 weeks later. They even yell SPACESHIP! when they see the retro Lego.
I'm X'ing you're calling Veggie Tales a bad kid movie. They're awesome and funny.
If by "phenomenal" you mean pedestrian and pandering, then I agree.
Most movies my kids go to, the 4 yo laughs his ### off to the point where others in the theatre are getting a kick out of him. he didn't make a peep this time.
not sure I was exactly rolling on the floor, but from start to finish I had a huge grin on my face from the references and nostalgia. did laugh a bit too, but cant remember specific lines now. I do know that anything in this movie >>>> Mater body fluid jokes or anything in Planes.
