Yeah.  I'm something of an amusement park nerd.  Kennywood is pretty great and I think it would be impossible for some of its charm to not leak in.  I am assuming, of course, that most of it was shot at Kennywood and that it just wasn't used for establishing exteriors or something.

I've only been to Cedar Point maybe a dozen or so times.  It was kind of a trek.

I did go there a full 6 times during the top thrill dragster opening season.  Most of the other trips were probably during Millennium Force's opening season.  Maybe 2 or 3 before that.

Nice!  They have a new one now that's really great, I think it might become my favorite coaster, the Maverick:

One of the drops is like 95 degrees, and it's just a really really fun and quick coaster.

I love how they advertised it as FROM THE DIRECTOR OF SUPERBAD. Movie is nothing like Superbad lol. Movie is far more like a mix of Dazed & Confused and Sixteen Candles. I agree with the reviews I see who say its more like an 80's John Hughes movie than Judd Apatow. Fantastic soundtrack though. Lou Reed, David Bowie...etc.

And Cedarpoint is awesome. I used to go there all the time. Movie made me nostalgic for it lol.

Fast & Furious

Not bad, although the obvious CGI disappointed me. Half of the fun in the F&F films is the major use of practical effects, major stunt driving, and wrecked cars. Knowing when the computer-enhanced images were in use was a letdown.

Bonus points for the increased usage of American muscle, though. Seeing a Ford Gran Torino made me :hyper.

Descent rocked when i first saw it. Had high hopes for the director. Too bad about Doomsday.

What? Doomsday is so much better than the overrated Descent, its like they were made by two different people.

Just saw Adventureland. Good movie, reminiscent of John Hughes 80s films. Supporting cast is great, and although not a straight up comedy like Superbad, some really funny moments. Recommended.

TVC would love it. He loves 80's Hughes stuff like Sixteen Candles and has nostalgia over the theme park used in the movie.

I'll definitely check it out.  It will have to wait for home release because I hate movie theaters, especially when movies targeted at young people are involved.  As I've said before, I don't think you should be allowed in a theater unless you are over 25.

Lotsa cities have theaters like that, but the problem is that they tend to only show art-y flicks or things that only adults would be interested in.

Milk

Was enjoyable but just seemed too hollywood feel good and safe.  Just didn't have that 'exciting' feel that would have given it a legitimate shot at best picture (not that Slumdog deserved it, but I'll concede Slumdog > Milk).  Also while I thought most of the acting was great, I am soooo not a James Franco fan.  If it wasn't for Pineapple Express I would still be convinced he was a total b-actor.  But he was pretty darn good in PE.

Slumdog wasn't better than Milk.

2008 for me:
Twilight > Burn After Reading > Speed Racer > Milk > Miley Cyrus in 3D > Quantum of Solace > TDK > The Bi-Curious Casr of Benjamin Button > Let The Right One In > Slumdog Millionaire < Doubt

dude, i fucking loved it.

there are two endings btw:

spoiler (click to show/hide)
the us ending ends with her getting out (in the car, apparently), the other, real ending ends with her waking up right after that scene--she's obviously been dreaming or whatever--and the camera starts zooming out with all the creatures closing in on her. and she sees her dead daughter.
[close]

there were some really great jump-out-of-your-seat moments.

i really find myself liking horror movies like this one--bunch of people go the middle of nowhere, get chased by fucked up creatures.
what other movies are there that are like this?

from the same director, there's also dog soldiers and doomsday. the trailers for both look interesting.

yeah, i DL'd the original when it first hit UK DVD because i loved Dog Soldiers so much. So I didn't have any preconceived notions, or even any idea what it was about.  I hope that after Doomsday he comes back and gives us another serious dark film along the same lines to show that it wasn't a one off thing

Saw this yesterday, one day after opening night, around 10 people attending. Hehe.
Movie was OK, a nice intro and some good lulz in there, but not sure I like the  :'( monologue.

Hating on TDK is fine, but to say it's "shitty" is just more idiotic trolling, a response to the overwhelming success the movie has had. It's by far the best super hero movie, and a solid 8/10

You do see people trolling 2001 because all their fans are all bisexual fairy boys.  That and the movie is super over rated.

let it baffle you some more. the point is: i expect you to be smarter than "my beloved nerd thing is getting trolled because it's popular bububu". makes you sound awfully paranoid and insecure. at least you should be able to realize that there's always people who genuinely like or dislike something without any sort of (anti-)fanboy agenda.

I understand you, and I'm okay with that, but I can't put it past some of the people here.
