It's on the very brink of 400 million. Will is fast approaching 5 billion gross for his films. Hancock will definitely break the record. He's at 4.8 billion right now. http://www.the-numbers.com/people/WSMIT.php

Really? Wow. At least on the democratic side, I'm thrilled with the quality of the candidates. Yeah, I also think the quality of the candidates is top notch. Chief, anything in particular you don't like?

This movie is doing unbelievably well.

Here's another one... http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/01/08/nh.main/index.html

There's been a shakeup in Clinton's staff. http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/200.../08/559253.aspx

Tonight is the big night. It should be very interesting to see how things play out. There should be a good turnout because the Northeast is seeing some great weather... Indian Summer level weather... Very very excited, to say the least.

Not really. If you attack those with similar strength, you likely won't die. You can't attack those who have been in the game awhile and expect to live though. I joined late and was attacked a bunch of times before I attacked anyone else... Didn't stop me from getting stronger.

Well... Blu-Ray sales just went up. I personally like HD-DVD, but Holographic Disks are going to be the thing of the future in just a few short years. Nice to see Will doing these extra features though.

Lol!

I don't think you can... I bet Julie is right, though... Schnazz has been attacking people every three hours nonstop... Just looking at his stats, he has 28 attacks already...

Aww, that sucks! It was a good one, too. I don't mind doing it again if you guys want to.

That's absolutely hilarious. Tonya Harding is a little crazy though... Hilarious, but accurate... lol.

Man, wilreign has disappeared. Anyone know where he went?

Lol...

Pretty much... We've also learned that there are, indeed, people who don't think Wild Wild West is Will's worse movie. I mean, we're all FP fans here, but let's be a little objective.

Thanks Ale... that's pretty much what I was looking for. I can understand why those who were fans of the short stories were disappointed. It's the same way I initially reacted when I first saw 2001: A Space Odssey. I'm a huge fan of the series and have read all 4 books multiple times. Most people aren't aware that there are 2010, 2061, and 3001 Space Odysseys. Unlike most people from this generation, I read the book long before I even realized there was a movie. Needless to say, I was sourly disappointed when I first saw it, and even more so when I realized that most others liked it. So I watched it again and removed all bias that I had developed from reading the book and watched it trying to forget, as best I could, that I had ever read the book. And you know what... I liked it. It took me having to remove by pre-existing bias and seeing the movie as a standalone work for me to appreciate it. I don't think it's true that most people dislike I, Robot. I believe it got something like 60% on Rotten Tomatoes and 77% from users there. It seems that quite a number of people who didn't like it derived thier dislike from their experiences with the short stories. Those who had no knowledge of the shorts stories overwhelmingly liked it, or at the very least, found it entertaining... far from finding it a horrible movie on par with Wild Wild West. We must be careful in mistaking our bias in favor of previous works for "taste and knowledge about cinema."

That's what I'm getting at. If I was looking for generalizations... "The plot was bad. There were plot holes" I wouldn't have made the thread; these are all things I have heard already. I'm simply looking for specifics.

I'm just waiting to hear what wilreign has to say about this. He's been unnaturally quiet concerning this new development.

I hope that Will is, indeed, cast in this. This will be a great movie and he'll have a chance to work with a number of talented actors.

Lol, I know, right. He did do the podcast though.

Wooord...completely agree. Movies are supposed to be entertaining, and every little detail doesn't need to analyzed IMO. I personally enjoyed I Robot. To each his own. Man, this thread went no where... Does anyone know someone who doesn't like I, Robot for specific reasons and would be willing to provide those reasons. Really, I've just been hearing lately how it's a horrible movie, but it seems no one can give specifics... it's always generalizations... "I didn't like the script." "Well what didn't you like about the script?" "I just wasn't feeling it." "Well, what about it weren't you feeling?" "Man, I just didn't like it." It almost seems as if no one can verbalize why it was a bad movie... they just know that it's bad.

Yup, I'm gonna play. Bart5 talking trash so early in the game is unacceptable.

Don't give me reason to change my mind.

Hmmm... I'll sit this one out. Let you guys enjoy the game for once... :thumbsup:

I've added you, but I don't see you online. I'm gonna restart.
