    You're not missing much. I thought it was way over-rated. I would have turned it off after 30 mins if my wife hadnt wanted to see it.

    Looks like it's really good to have the kids able to buy tickets. Esp. if they go more than once.

    How about a list of the top 50 films adjusted for inflation...I bet probably 35 of the 50 would be from before 1995

    38. I would have scored higher except that I now have a 16 month kid. The recent movies that have not made it to cable are most of the ones I am mostly missing.

    I haven't seen the cartoon / kiddie ones. And no MBFGW.

    The Harry Potter movies are actually good.
