Actually, I'm vexed by it as well. The erosion of language in an age where the written word's importance is higher than ever is disturbing.

It must be nice to be bothered only by the truly worldly injustices in life.

Mark me down as well. That was the first thing I said to my wife when we passed the poster at the theater... ;)

Saw this movie tonight.

It was very good but tough to watch because it's just really, really depressing. Will Smith did a great job. And I have to admit, I'm not a guy that cries easily, but during a particular scene in a bathroom in about the middle of the movie, I was brinking.

Yes, it vexes me terribly.

Fixed, Emperor Commodus.

Hilarious. :laugh:


As for the movie, it seems a little bit too "Made for TV" to me. Apparently plenty of people disagree since it was top at the box office this weekend, though.

Good movie, terrific performance on Will Smith's part (and thats coming from a guy who hasn't liked him in his previous roles, ie. Independence day, AI, etc.)
I have to say this movie really inspired me to work harder in school so I don't end up having to struggle through out the rest of my life like him.

great movie, no spoilers here, but be wary if you bring young one as it does have a few occasional bad words, just a heads up

Saw this movie last night. It was more like Pursuit of a Good Movie.... The guys story is inspirational. The movie sucked balls though.

Will Smith is an A-list actor and this movie proves it. Good enough to make a grown man cry.
8/10 for the movie. Nice rags-to-riches story which only focuses on the 'rags-to' part.

Of course the spelling error is intentional. It's part of the movie.
