We're PRETENDING to like it, just so the box-office reporters might
continue to beat up on the Adam Sandler movie, but that's as much grace
period as we'll give a lame Dreamworks squawker--
(Oh, and just to settle a bet, does "Funkytown" appear anywhere on the
soundtrack as its own gag?--I'm trying to make a list of how many
post-Shrek Dreamworks films *don't* use it in the script...)
Although hate to admit, the Weinsteins' "Igor" trailer doesn't...look
all that bad for a non-Pixar, although the Boxy Little Robot will still
triumph for the summer.
Derek Janssen (and nobody on the anime groups got it when I tried to
make a "Ranma 1/2 had a better kung-fu panda" joke, so I won't deign to
try it here, either.) :(

86%, not bad . . . pretty damn good, actually!
Hell, the "In Conclusion thread" give a pretty good review . . .

We got it, it wasn't funny; though most of the reponses afterwards
were! Any real Ranma fan could've told you negative criticism from
Genma I'll-throw-my-kid-wrapped-in-fish-into-a-pit-of-hungry-cats
(among other things) Saotome is a *good* thing!

I hate the Johnny Five ads so much . . .
Have you gotten the one on IMDb, that appears OVER the page, and you
have to find the X and click the ad away before you can do anything,
because it covers the search box?
Way to convince me NOT to go to your movie, moronic Pixar ad execs.
Derek Janssen
Since IMDb does that for EVERY danged movie/TV event now, I've learned
not to misplace my anger, and focus on the guilty parties responsible...
And as for the "vignette" ads now running on the trailer website what've
they got in the no-dialogue faux-Film Board of Canada department that
that #%(*&#% fan-worshipped Ice Age squirrel doesn't? :)

This is the first one I've hit that you had to get rid of it to use the
search box. But if they're doing it ever time, all the more reason
Pixar shouldn't buy an ad.

S.t.A.n.L.e.E
That's why I normally websurf with javascript off.
At least IMDB is stil usable with javascript off.
