Damn straight. Come on over, I'm mixing them with a little 'Merican flag.
Is that an open invitation? How long will it take to drive from Alberta to... Wherever you are?

Fuck it, I'm on my way anyway. Providence will guide me to you, and your alcohol, right?

Those are pretty good, actually:

Mixing Instructions

This is a layered shot, with the end result being a layer of red, then white and blue. Fill the shot 1/3 of the way with grenadine. Using the back of a spoon (bar spoon if you have one), pour in the white creme de cacao. Use the same technique to fill the final 1/3 with blue curacao. Enjoy the effect.
 
The reason Buzz did such a great job on the set is it wasn't the first time he acted on a movie set.
Anyway, getting back to the movie, the first movie showcased bad acting, a weak female lead with no real purpose in the film, a storyline with multiple plot holes (more plot holes than Bush's "terrorists were behind the 911 attack" gig. Building #7 didn't collapse on it's own.) and over the top action. The second movie showcased bad acting, a weak female lead with no real purpose in the film, a storyline with multiple plot holes (more plot holes than a lone gunman taking down JFK.) and over the top action.
So if you watched the first two movies, thought they sucked, and still shelled out your hard earned cash for this one you can officially call yourself Michael Bay's bitch because he got you. You knew it'd be more of the same.
Meanwhile Roger Ebert wants to whistle a tune but without a lower jaw all he can do is dribble.

It was funny till you added the other conspiracy theories, then your troll was showing.
 
The answer to this question is 0. Go sober and stop being a goddamn internet pissant nagging for no goddamn reason other to get on the "bandwagon". You're all big boys/girls, you should all be able to formulated your own opinions.

Try it, it tastes like individual freedom.
Hey Jay, how much do I need to drink to make it through Dragon Age 2?

Wouldn't know, maybe you like that mediocre game more than I did. As one who expressed oneself after experiencing it, I needed no alcohol.

Could have helped, I was dehydrated after shedding all those tears of boredom.
 
I thought you were just a big Ryan Dunn fan. :p

No worries though man, I figured you were joking but again... what you said was the kind of thing the Dunn fans have been throwing at Ebert the last week so I wasn't sure.
 
I am a Ryan Dunn fan but that had nothing to do with the post. I was just trying to display the absurdity of the criticism of Transformers Dark of the Moon. You can ridiculously pick a movie apart. And with the third being no different in format than the first two there's really not anything to complain about. If the first two were on par with "The Godfather" and then we got this one, yeah, beat the hell out of the movie, but when all three follow the exact same format at that point it becomes like an abusive relationship that one just can't get away from. The dig at Ebert was nothing more than a low blow at a psychical characteristic (intended no differently than calling someone fat, geek, etc.) was meant in jest and not to be mean spirited.

I don't think this is a thread about if people enjoyed the film, but if it was a bad film by ratings standards.
 
I have zero interest in these movies, but I almost wish I'd been at this one's opening night in my college town, because it sounds like opening nights for this had fun, excited audiences. I know Spoony hated it in his review as he was talking about how game the audience was before the movie started and during the movie, but that's what I love about going to the movies, and audiences are so rarely fired up these days.

Well I guess I worded it wrong, I meant that it sounded like you were correcting someone instead of stating an opinion. My mistake.
 
But what's the number of ticket sales?
Haven't found that data yet. Everyone is fapping over the dollar signs.

But... according to EW, Spider-Man 2 sold more tickets in spite of a lower take.

Which is my point anyway. Grosses are just big numbers to numb the public with. Says nothing about how many people actually bought tickets (and less about how many STAYED :p).

They showed this in 3D, with the higher ticket prices from those sales it's very obvious it didn't have higher tickets, just higher $ tags.
