is he three-fifths years old, or are you just unsure if he is 3 or 5? ;)

edit: forgot smiley!

So you're saying the movies are craptastic, even though you've never seen a single one? Finding Nemo was exceptionally good, better than most non-animated films. Remind me to never listen to any sort of entertainment review from you.

Edit: I'm now declaring YOU craptastic :)

Nemo isn't that bad, I just got back from it. Long winded and exactly what you want to see/hear, it's a pretty good film if you have nothing else to see..

Great flick like the other Pixars... just saw it, despite vowing to catch it at matinee prices... worth it anyway.

Why? from the trailers I still don't think it's going to be that good a movie.

Looking forward to NEMO. :)


i didnt like the first two to begin with

anyway, saw nemo today, took the wife/kid (or, wife AND kid, since some people may [and at times correctly...] think im saying my wife is a child{who, btw doesnt read atforums}) was ok, toy story 1 and 2 were much better, monsters inc was so-so

i still think shrek is better than any of them "please keep off of the grass, shine your shoes wipe your--face!"

I went ahead and caught it last night as well (opening night).... I was impressed, it's an excellent flick. Yes, it will never stand up on par with some of the best "real" movies, but as far as animated goes, it's up there with Shrek and Lion King and the like. Another goldmine for Pixar, this thing is going to be a blockbuster and will sell on DVD like hotcakes......

I went to go see it today and there was like a line extended out of the theatre with kids and their parents. It was sold out. Guess I will have to catch it later :(

Am I the only person that didn't think Shrek was not very funny at all? I thought it pretty much stank actually. Anyway, I am trying to get a crew together to catch Nemo tonight...

I liked it but I didn't "love" it. It could have been funnier.

I like movies like this though because you're gonna rarely get to the end and hate it. You know what to expect and it delivers. Toy Story and monster inc. are all like this and nemo should be similar.

is it like a bug's life with all its quirky bug jokes, only with fish jokes?

will see it tomorrow w/ wife :)

Btw. ditched the Matrix Reloaded because of the many 'so lala' reviews - and i think Matrix II has nothing new, plot is lame etc...and a few action scenes in slow motion (like we had 1999) dont make me wanna see that movie...Matrix was a killer, a intelligent revolution, innovative effects when it came out in 1999, but (IMHO) Matrix II totally lacks anything creative new...therefore: "Finding Nemo" tomorrow !!! And...btw. i did not read anything bad about that movie [yet] ! :)

greetings

ok, but i think you should see it and form your own opinion.

everyone i know liked it, and most opinions i've read have been favorable
