Went to see The 40-Year-Old Virgin. It's rated 'R' for a reason... Funny as hell, though.

And March of the Penguins is still up there. :)

Man, I bet The Penguin is fucking stoked every Monday when he reads the box office reports. I mean, after recouping the $7 million it cost to make the thing, he's got like, $48.7 million to spend on bringing Gotham to it's knees.

The 40-Year-Old Virgin is quality. More tightly knit than a few past Frat Pack efforts. Very, very enjoyable.

I second the 40-year-old virgin praise. It's a damn good movie. I saw it with a few friends, and I honestly can't remember a gap where I wasn't laughing. Much much much better than the Wedding Crashers, which was boring as hell through the drawn out second half. Will Farrell was... kinda funny I guess in that one. He sure as hell wasn't enough to save the movie.

I enjoyed the movie quite a bit...kinda like a more up to date Swingers...not quite as good...but it had the same feel.

Anybody see Brothers Grimm? My family saw it (not me) and they all pretty much hated it. Just a heads up.

I saw Bros. Grimm. It was alright. Pretty much what one would expect from a cash cow version of a Terry Gilliam movie. It was no Fear and Loathing or 12 Monkeys (much less Brazil) but it was worth the matinee price I paid to see it.

The 40 year old virgin was the funniest movie I have seen in years! I laughed so hard that I missed lines in the movie due to my own raucus volume. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, on the other hand, was one of the worst films I have ever seen.

I really liked 'virgin.' I gotta agree, the lead character is a real geek but a likable one. The supporting characters are a blast as well.

40 Year Old Virgin is one of the best comedies to come out in years. You're missing a bet if you haven't seen it. Honestly. At worst it's just a good movie.

Saw Virgin over the weekend and have to jump on the bandwagon... it's absolutely hilarious. I never went more than a minute or two without laughing.

I saw Four Brothers, it was decent. That was until the projector went out of focus and the sound all but died. It was so close to the end though, I didn't want to leave. :(

Did you at least get free tickets?

I liked Brothers Grimm. It wasn't perfect, but Gilliam has been VERY vocal about studio interference with this flick, so I knew what to expect. It had just enough Gilliam to make me happy.

Yeah, it was certainly better than a lot of other things. And it's definitely enough to hold me over until Tideland comes out later this year. I'm not about to look the gift horse of 2-Gilliam-movies-in-one-year in the mouth.

I saw 40 Year Old Virgin to see a preview of my life in 20 years. It didn't look to bad.

Not too bad at all. I would give up sex in a second for all the comics, action figures, and videogames he has.
