Those gentlemen interest me far more than the FX, though this does look sort of fun in a "Zathura" kind of way.

Haha! Same here Puffy! I'm definately going to see that movie, not only because I love history and museums in general, but because I am very much looking forward to seeing Dick Van Dyke . I just watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang last night.

Aw darnit, I was all excited that it might be a new film version of The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. F.E.B.!

Oh that is so cool! My favorite place on earth, brought to life! With Ben Stiller too!
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
Very, very cool!

I was going for a new Marx Brothers movie.
But this seems cool. Dick Van Dyke is my favorite actor, ever. And the lady from Spy Kids and Sin City ain't hard to look at.
But what's up with Kim "I Suck Charisma Off The Screen" Raver?

Myr, I think you mean Mrs B.E.F.

Just saw a bigger trailer for this before Borat.
Looks hysterical, and, btw, like it's probably going to be 10 times as funny as Borat was.
Posted by Puffy Treat (Member # 7210) on :
Yeah, the extended trailer was attached to Stranger Than Fiction too.
Loved the banter with Owen Wilson's character, and the living Egyptian idols looked cool.

Whoops, yes I did Puffy Treat, got a little lysdexic on that one. In other news, I didn't notice this was old and I was in the process of highlighting my own reply so I could quote it and say "WOAH ME TOO!"
*smacks forehead*
Someone didn't have coffee today >_<

Saw this earlier tonight.
It wasn't as great all throughout as I thought it would be.
But the parts that were funny, which were mostly the parts with Owen Wilson and Steven Coogan, and I have to say those parts had me laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.
All in all it was a good movie, and I think it's even a good family movie, and though it wasn't the funniest thing I've ever seen like I thought it might be, it was still well worth the time spent going to see it (and I thought it was more funny than Borat).

I love Steve Coogan. and him alone being in it may get me to see the movie.

Oh this looks fun!
did anybody else check out the Shrek the 3rd trailer on that site as well?

My Mom, aunt, Chris and I all saw Night at the Museum tonight. We had a great time. It was funny and action packed, well acted and directed. I recommend it as a good holiday family movie.
Posted by Evie3217 (Member # 5426) on :
I agree with Karl. I had a great time. It's a great family film and would definitely see it again. Owen Wilson and Steven Coogan were obviously the funniest part of the movie, but I have to say that Dick Van Dyke and Mikey Rooney were incredible as well. I laughed out loud (and I have a very loud laugh) when Mickey Rooney tried to tackle Ben Stiller. Ben Stiller was okay. It wasn't his best acting of his career, and the end was a little too feel-good, but it was a great movie.
Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
I saw it and thought it was pretty funny. Mikey Rooney made me laugh with all his random nicknames and insults. I really liked the scenes with the cowboys and Romans.
Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :
I saw it tonight with my two younger brothers. I thought it was really good. Like everyone else, I thought the funniest parts were with Octavius and the Owen Wilson character.
*Spoilers*
---------------- When Ben Stiller was comforting Attila there were people behind me that fell off their seats and were rolling around in the aisles laughing so hard. I thought it was pretty funny, especially when he pointed at the other guy and said "You're next". Posted by littlemissattitude (Member # 4514) on :
Saw this today as part of the Christmas festivities. Great film. After hearing some of the reviews, I mainly went ahead and saw it because I'll see anything with Owen Wilson in it. However after seeing the film, I can only suspect that the naysaying critics are either afraid to say they actually like a "kids" movie or they have completely lost track of their own inner kids.
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
lma -
Completely agree.
Posted by littlemissattitude (Member # 4514) on :
It's interesting, I think. One of the reviews I read (on CNN) harped a lot on how the reviewer felt that the director of the film mistook "loud" for "funny". But, you know, I took my mother with me to see the movie, and she always complains if she thinks a movie is too loud...and it doesn't take much volume for her to complain. She never complained once about the volume of this movie, however.
Posted by Lyrhawn (Member # 7039) on :
Maybe he meant loud in more of a, "neon pink is a loud color" sort of way.
Posted by Stephan (Member # 7549) on :
Best movie I have seen in years, and I see a lot of movies. It is good to know that movies can still be made that are funny and action packed without sex and gore.
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
No sex and no gore?
Awwwwww!
Posted by TheTick (Member # 2883) on :
Forget the movie, did anyone see the Fantastic Four trailer in front of this??
Posted by Stephan (Member # 7549) on :
Yes! Looks to be much better then the first one.
Posted by Puffy Treat (Member # 7210) on :
It doesn't seem to be online, but yes, I saw it.
I don't know about it looking better. As long as Reed & Sue are played by completely miscast actors, I'm wary of this franchise.
And the CGI Silver Surfer provoked a huge laugh in the theater, once the audience saw he was just a naked guy on a surf board. Posted by TheTick (Member # 2883) on :
I'm the comic book has been made fun of for that reason, too. They should totally put some Bermuda shorts on him.
