Eight Crazy Nights (and some other prelim film stuff)

#include <stddisclaimer.h> /* Yes, I work for Muvico */

If you haven't seen Eight Crazy Nights [ Offical site | Imdb entry ] yet, you better go soon. It's a good comedy movie about the winter holidays, with several good songs inside of it. Could be longer, though. It's almost like a TV show, running an hour and 26 minutes. Geesh, give me a 2 hour movie at least. Recommend Matine Showing

Some other stuff which I would recommend, from seeing parts of the movie while on the job (5-10 minute stints):
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: GO NOW
Treasure Planet: GO NOW
Die Another Day: Recommend Matine Showing
Solaris: Prepare to be nausated
Equilibrium: Reminds me of an old Star Trek episode, with more violence

Of course, there are previews from what I've read online:
Star Trek, Nemisis: WAIT TWO WEEKS FOR THE FANBOYS TO CLEAR OUT
Hot Chick: WAIT FOR THE DVD TO BE PIRATED
Lord of the Rings, Two Towers: WAIT TWO WEEKS FOR THE CROWDS TO CLEAR

For explinations,

Here's my "rating system" explained:
WAIT TWO WEEKS FOR THE FANBOYS TO CLEAR OUT -- It's going to be a null film, but those who are already familiar with it are going to jam the theaters.
WAIT TWO WEEKS FOR THE CROWDS TO CLEAR -- It's going to be a good film that'll sell out fast.
GO NOW -- Grab your stun gun to get in if need be, you got to see it.
Recommend Matine Showing -- It's good, but it's better when it's cheap (or just not worth regular price).
Wait for the DVD -- It's not that good.
Prepare to be nausiated -- Don't go, the exit polls say it's very bad.
Wait for the DVD to be pirated -- Don't waste your money.
Boycott this movie -- You heard me. Why they even make it...

"8 Crazy Nights" has had mixed feelings from a lot of people. I've heard people say it sucks, and I've heard people say it is good. I have mostly heard movie reviewers say it sucks, but they don't like simple, fun movies much. =P

True, it is a simple fun movie. A little longer (maybe before Davy blows up in Whitey's face at the rink, should be another "go") would do it good.

If only I had more of this -what people call it- "Free Time". =D

"The Hot Chick" needs a lower rating. Rob Schneider needs to be hit with "The Ultimate Nullifier", so that none of his movies were ever made.

The world would be a much better place.

I can't give it a Boycott. That is reserved for Battlefield: Earth.

Maybe a "Get your gaskmask: Classification Limburger" (or three day old ichor) is needed. Or, there's always "Requires Deletium".

If any normal human being what changed into Rob Schneider, they would kill themselves rather than live any longer as... there are no words for how terrible he is, or at least his movies are.

Solaris: Prepare to be nausated

considering what it shares it's name with, are you really all that surprised?

True story from the theaters a few weeks ago: Female adult comes up to me and says "Whatever you do, don't go see Solaris. It's so bad, I'm nausiated." I point out the bathrooms just in case, but she says she'll be fine.

A few hours later, someone throws up in the mens bathroom. Couldn't clean it up, alas, door was locked.
