I took my kids to see Harry Potter-Goblet Of Fire this weekend...

1. Why do movies promote kids cussing as they get older??

2. Why do movies promote boys looking at girls tooshes as they get older??

Thanks, didn't know her name.

I just remember watching the movie and either she had a scene with Jeff Goldblum or immediately after a Goldblum scene, and I was thinking: "Wow. Goldblum is just such an awful actor and she's really good - if he's watching this he should be cringing with embarrassment."

Doesn't help when they let the female character walk around like this:

(1) I don't know.

(2) There's no need to promote it. They will do it whether they see people in movies doing it or not.

Is that a real pic? What possible context was this in?

It was a hilarious skit done on Saturday Night Live a year or so ago. The pic is real. That is Lindsey Lohan.

Oh, I think I heard about that one. Is that the one where they told her that a spell required her to touch her elbows behind her back or something?

Probably cause kids cuss as they get older.

2. Why do movies promote boys looking at girls tooshes as they get older??

Cause they wiggle when they walk.

Ya but movies make it look cool to do such a thing.

Yeah, and they had her look through a giant magnify glass, which was held so they could magnify a certain part of her body.

Jeff Goldblum is Michael Richards with a better agent.

Go away.


That was the stupidest review EVER - even stupider than your list one. Keep up the good work (/sarc)!

Wait until you see next week's review. It gets worse. It's a movie about planes and pilots.

Appreciating the beauty of God's creations is not un-godly.
Few of them are more beautiful than a beautiful woman. And looking is not chasing.

"I always thought it was Kristen Dunst playing that role."

You're thinking of "Jumanji".

That was on this weekend, too. Good movie. If it shows up next weekend, I'll review that.

Seen it.

If you really want to visit the ends of the earth when it comes to moviedom...

Try to locate a copy of "Cloud Dancer". It is the ONLY movie ever made about competition aerobatics and it is a cult classic among the 2000 of us who have seen it.

The flying sequences are awesome and I know all of the stunt pilots in it (that are still above ground, if you know what I mean).

It's also the worst movie in the history of talking pictures. David Carridine plays the flawed hero. Jennifer O'Neill plays his love interest.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080545/

I've seen it a dozen times. Now we just heckle and laugh! It's our "Rocky Horror".
