1. I was actually thinking about going to
..see the silly movie, but now that I've read good reviews I might reconsider. I rarely enjoy a movie critics like (I don't know why, it just works like that).:shrug:

2. I think the critics liked it because
they went in expecting a cheap trashy summer crowd-pleaser flick...and that's what it is. So it did deliver on what it promised to be. :shrug: :)

5. You know, I might actually buy the DVD for this
(as opposed to downloading it), just so I can say I have it. :D

4. I'll see it on DVD.
Only because it does indeed look like one of those so-terrible-it's-great kind of movies. :P

27. I leafed through it
Just one line leaped out at me: "Hurry! Get to the back of the plane!" Somehow, I imagine it being a tad more dramatic in the theater. Just a hunch.

I really think I need to buy that book, though. Novels based on screenplays are usually really awful, but often pretty funny. :D

20. Saw it today in NYC
I laughed, I squirmed in my seat, I screamed. And my husband (who is terrified of snakes) kept leaning over to whisper in my ear " I hate you".

:rofl:

24. It really was lots of fun.
My sons thoroughly enjoyed it too- it was the highlight of our summer NYC weekend. Well, except for seeing the taping of the Colbert Report. :-)
