This one REALLY deserves to bomb at the box office...it's chock full of anti-American celebs, a who's-who of pompous, Hollyweird left-wingers. Do they deserve YOUR money?

Usually they just earn it with a good performance. These guys get paid whether I go or not, unless they put up the money to make the movie -- not likely with this all-star caste.

I guess the first movie did ok since they're making a sequel, although how they keep the books in Hollywood is one of the great mysteries of life.

I was with my Dem sisters this weekend and they were amazed that I hadn't been to the movies in ages. Plain and simple - I stay home and I read. There is nothing out there that appeals to me - particularly after seeing what these idiots have to say about politics. Give me 3 or 4 books a week and I'm much happier.

I have family members who are Democrats, and aren't always the most rational people all of the time. I don't boycott their family gatherings.

If you can look beyond politics when it really doesn't matter/isn't relevant, you'll have a much happier life.

Not that it isn't a free country - you're certainly welcome to spend/not spend your money as you see fit.

But if you're being sincere about it, I hope you're willing to turn your back on 99 percent of the entertainment industry. That sounds like loads of fun, eh?

Just seems like an incredible waste of energy, to me.

The Pacific Ocean is far more interesting than Ocean's Twelve.

I watched the real Ocean's 11 with the real performers. Cooney, Pitt, Roberts, Damon and the lot's attempt at recapturing their magic fell far short.

I tried to watch the lame remake on HBO. I was instantly bored and switched channels within 10 minutes.

In the right movie, I'll watch these folks. That one was just bad.

What Bush need to do is just give them (Kalipornia elites) back Clintons tax increase, and see if they claim discrimination.

I've still not seen Oceans 11, the new one, yet.

Your wish is my command. Consider it zapped. BTW: They must be figuring on this because they are coming here to Japan in Japan to fully promote themselves.

Why does any educated person waste time going to ANY movie?

Live life directly and forget the products of Hollyweird degenerates.......

OK, a select few movies like "The Passion" might get a pass once in awhile....But some folks go weekly to see some sick, stupid flick...Its vicarious living. Might as well be a zombie.

Like the rest of new releases, they don't git diddly-squat. I wait for DVD and give $2.99/3 nights to Lefty-owned rental chains or just wait for broadcast release.

Julia Roberts "He's embarrassing. He's not my president. He will never be my president."

Move out of the US and renounce your citizenship then he won't be your president. Until then, wake up and smell the roses. He is your president.

Not a chance in Heaven, Hell or Midgard I'll pay to see this crap.

I saw the Rat Pack original "Ocean's 11."

The hideous Ms. Roberts is insufferable. And who can forgive Clooney for "Batman and Robin?"

If I only gave money to artists and entertainers who shared my politics, I'd have nothing to watch but bad TV movies, nothing to listen to at all, and hardly any books to read. I don't care if they sign petitions and speak out because no one listens to movie stars, anyway. I would never give a dime to Mikey Moore but he's an active destroyer of our country, while these puppetheads are just playing at political activism.

Everyone do what you want, but if you think I'm gonna stop looking at, say, Angelina Jolie because of her politics, yer nuts. How many movies starring Bo Derek and Cheryl Ladd are being made?

From what I have seen in the hype - this one looks bad anyway. Really bad.

Count me in. I wouldn't go because of their Anti-American statements in a time of war, but it's easy anyway, the trailers were stupid looking.
