It's on my "I hope to see eventually" list.  I've heard it's excellent from a few people.

Hmmmmm...pay $10 and listen to idiots yakking to each other or on cell phones, kids, babies, overpriced crap, or get it from NetFlix when it comes out on DVD?

I vote for Option B.

Does this mean you'll be on my jury when I garrote the obnoxious little 13-year old who can't seem to understand movie theaters aren't the place to be trying out that really "wicked cool" new ringtone?

BEG ...it's based on the book Q & A which you probably already know.

I read the book last winter/spring...it was an excellent book. I'm hesitant to see the movie, only because I don't want to be disappointed.

Yes I knew it was based on the book Q&A but the only reason I knew that is because it was listed in the credits.  I haven't read the book so I can't say how you would view the movie.  All I can say is this movie was one of the best movies I have ever seen and well worth the ticket price plus a coke and some popcorn.

Like all movies, I will watch it when it comes out on HBO.

I so could not be married to you.  I love to go to the movies for the popcorn alone.  I have to have the "butter" layered....always layered and a coke.  I know it is so bad for me but it tastes so good so I ignore what I'm doing to my body for a couple of hours.  mmmmmmmmmmmmm salty fake "buttery" popcorn and a coke, nothing better.

You serious ? I can usually tolerate a lot in movies. That one was so damn boring I shut it down after about 15 minutes.

It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

I'm the same way...plus I add Junior Mints. There's something about the minty chocolate with the salt and butter.  :drool: But I do drink it with a Diet Coke....  :innocent:
