The Happening
« on: June 13, 2008, 03:14:04 pm »
Anyone seen it?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0949731/
I've read some horrible reviews and am completely skeptical of any entertainment value that it may offer.  "The director's first R rated film" is what puts me off the most.  Why would ever advertise based on the rating?  Also, that it's pretty much about global warminng or some BS, yah.  I plan to see it because I'm hoping it to be better than Lady in the Water ... but I'll probably just get drunk and sit through it angrily.

Not worth seeing.  I probably won't even download it unless it's free.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

As in, download doesn't count towards ratio.

Lady in the Water was a stupid movie, Happening was just a BAD movie.  Poor acting, horrible script & plot, I left there needing a drink.

Most people I've talked with about the movie have liked it as well.  Someone brought up this movie (The Happening) at work the other day and mentioned that they liked Lady in the Water just as much as Sixth Sense.

did you even read that? he didn't say it sucks. and his reasons for calling it a B movie weren't even in a really condescending manner. not that i thought it was amazing, but seriously... read the links you post - especially if you're going to comment on them.

Personally, I'd call that a complement. B movies are on average, in my opinion, better than big studio films.

Remember a short while ago, right after you almost go kicked out of the clan, and your posts were good?  Can we have that CrAz3D back?
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Sober CrAz3D?  Yeah, he is usually here ... but every now and again drunk CrAz3D visits when everyone else leaves his house too early.

You're assuming that all (or any) non-B movies are A movies.

Also, what Blaze said.
