  1. Well I would try to spell the name correctly.
  2. I think any movie in any genre can be judged. If it's a bad comedy then it's a bad comedy you wouldn't just shrug it off because it's in the comedy genre. Anyway I'm not trying to say I'm surprised with the reaction, it was obvious if Phillips took the safe route and virtually made a carbon copy of what worked it would do well with the public and do poorly with the critics. That's almost how all sequels play out, and as long as the movie grosses big bucks who cares what critics say it's certainly not stopping a particular generation from spending money on part 2, and 3. If you're a picky movie fan like I am I think that's a disappointing pattern that lacks originality, it's not just Hangover 2 it's all the part 2's and 3's that come out with nothing special. Little Fockers a prime example of a useless stretch of a series, yet still grossed over 300 million dollars worldwide. Judging a movie no matter what genre is completely fair comedy doesn't get a golden pass. This genre is fantastic and it's one of my favorites but if you ever want the Oscars and such to take you seriously (which they complain about constantly as a genre) then criticism is part of the game. Hangover 2 was funny, but not original. For me just IMO that doesn't give it a pass because it accomplished being funny, but that's just me, no denying if you love this group and you just want to laugh it's fine keep churning them out, it's all about the money at the end of the day.
  3. Not a fan of this one I prefer the first one much more. I'm not a huge fan of sequels though and I did see all the reviews prior to watching and agree with all the rotten ones, it was nothing original. It's not really a "must see." Looking toward to some other movies coming out this summer.
  4. I love Scola's game he's got the best work ethic and straight battles anyone who comes in his way. It sucks that he's not young because after that injury as a Rockets fan you knew everyone would get overly skeptical about Scola's future and rightfully so with our luck. I really wouldn't mind seeing Scola traded only because PPatt showed that he needs the minutes to flourish and while he may never have the post moves Scola brings, he's a better player overall on both ends of the court. I don't know if any player made me more frustrated on defense than Luis, he tries but he finds himself in the worst positions on the court at times, and his defense is just way to suspect. Just the determination he brings sometimes gets through the game on D but for the most part he made multiple mistakes on that end. His offense is spectacular you hardly see any players in the NBA pull of scoops and spins like Scola did all season without traveling. You can't leave him open for a mid-range shot because he will drill it all night and score 3-4 baskets without even noticing it. I don't know what you can get for a older player who has a heavy salary but it certainly seems like rebuilding is the obvious direction for the Rockets.
  5. Handled well by LeBron, he mentioned some incredible names along with Jordan. It's good he gets he's got a long way to go as far as being successful in this league not as an individual player but as a champion. He's on his way though.
  6. Ya I have the same feeling, not very excited about him being the head coach but at the same time not the worst situation or choice. He is a players coach, he seems to have a very upbeat personality but just wasn't my preference as a fan. I think the players will be pleased by the selection.
  7. ewwww you are breaking rockets code right now its UNPRECEDENTED

  8. LOL

    its hurting my eyes

  9. Yes. I only hold a grudge when I sit and ask myself "why does this guy keep making the same mistake over and over." As a fan you would think going over tape, practicing certain things etc. would rectify the problem yet at times you see players make the same dumb decision over and over. If you follow a team religiously it really gets on your nerves.
  10. your all decked out with mavs stuff TRAITOR

  11. Well that's going to be a painful situation for you
  12. WojYahooNBA: Houston has offered Kevin McHale coaching job and are in advanced talks on a deal, sources tell Y! Agreement may not come til after weekend. WojYahooNBA: There's no guarantee terms will be agreed upon with McHale, but sources believe both sides are determined to make it happen.
  13. Are you talking about when he lost the dribble behind his back? If so I just saw it on ESPN Ronnie Brewer wacked him across the face. Shitty calls are part of the game... those calls did not choke the game away for the Bulls.
  14. Hey Dash have you heard much about Chris Finch? Everyone throws his name around for the future possibly within the next couple of years.
  15. Haha man it was so good I don't know why I never saw it earlier but such a memorable performance by those three. Even the little dog. I saw it last week and was extremely surprised. I got dragged along and really didn't want to see it but it's consistently hilarious all the way through. Melissa McCarthy killed it she's starting to get popular through Mike & Molly also, I also was never a big fan of Kristen Wiig from SNL but she was good in it also. Next one on my list to watch in theaters is The Tree Of Life with Sean Penn and Brad Pitt.
  16. What a great series for the Heat. They just keep getting stronger over time it's just scary. LeBron still makes silly turnovers at odd times but he has been a monster in the closing minutes multiple times. I'm a big fan he's just been fun to watch. I wanted Thunder vs Heat but no doubt I will be rooting hard for the Heat lol even more than normal no way Mavs no way.
  17. Last movie I saw was As Good As It Gets http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm233/lebronze23/asgood.jpg 9/10 Really different movie with great acting. Jack and Helen both won Oscars for this movie and they really deserved it. It's such a strange story about a single mother, a gay neighbor, and a really strange author. I usually don't enjoy the dramedy genre but this is so character driven it's just oddly funny.
  18. Mike is going through some crazy times right now. Its gotta be hard to focus on basketball when you know your daughter is fighting for her life. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Mike-Miller-plays-well-through-the-health-issues?urn=nba-wp3854
  19. I liked the doc a lot as well, was excited about what he could do in the NBA, or so I thought lol.
  20. Who cares where the fame came from they have capitalized on it like hell, raking in millions as a family.
  21. i was gonna send u a pm lol but its all full

  22. Saw this earlier, I don't know what this guy is talking about when it comes to fans here..... The upper bowls usually have the best diehard fans but the club sections suck, it's all business owned and that basically means old, quite, lazy rich guys who kill the atmosphere rather than help it.... He's spot on with the food and drinks, I have always enjoyed what they serve at TC, the price is not a big issues because you already know it's going to be expensive no matter what sporting venue you go to. Overall though it's a comfortable place to watch the game, and we really do have the best mascot in the association. :glasses:
