Stardust was a lot of fun, and yes, it's worth watching if you haven't seen it yet. A movie based on the Neil Gaiman story of the same name, it's the tale of a boy in England who lives near a magical wall (boundary) between two planes of existence. He sees a star falling one night, and promises his love that he'll trek into the wilds and find it for her.

It's a really fun movie, and if you like fantasy-type-stuff, you'll really enjoy it.

Yes, I'd reccomend Stardust.  I like the kid in the lead, plus you have all sorts of people popping up like Michelle Pfeiffer, Robert Deniro, Peter O'Toole, so the cast is outstanding for a reall well acted whole.  There are Witches, Fallen Stars, Lightning Pirates, Unicorns, and Ghosts (who I thought were a lot of fun).  One of the few movies that I actually liked as well as or better than the original book.

We're looking for a theatre showing Run Fat Boy Run simply because we're on a SImon Pegg jagg having seen Shawn of the Dead and Hot Fuzz in the last couple weeks.

Simon Pegg is awesome!

I wonder how he'll do in the new Star Trek movie?

I didn't know about a few of those such as:
Monsters Vs. Aliens, Inglorious Bastards, Where the Wild Things Are, The Three Stooges.

Looking forward to:
Watchmen,  X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Star Trek, Terminator: Salvation, Transformers 2 (Revenge of the Fallen), Harry Potter,  GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra,  and a few others that have slipped my memory.

He's Just Not That Into You, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Star Trek

I'll go see just about anything with Justin Long, Simon Pegg, or Steve Zahn in it.  Hugh Jackman isn't hard on the senses either.  But things like the Terminator franchise should have ended with the #2 the rest is crap imo,

Well... yeah. But THIS one could be good! ;D

Actually, I think they're capitalizing on Christian Bale's batman popularity to try and resurrect the Terminator franchise.

Not to get off topic, but has anyone heard the fate of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles? I really liked that, and suddenly it's not on tv anymore. Did Fox kill another good series, only to replace it with 'worlds blankiest blank' or 'exploitative reality tv scenario'?

Anyway, with movies, I didn't know about all of those- but when I saw the titles, I was a little excited. I remember hearing something about GI Joe a while back, but it was all rumor- no hard fact.

no idea about sarah conner. But as for GI Joe, they showed a quick teaser trailer for that before the superbowl. Looks badass!

and if you see it on the superbowl, it's gotta be true!
