    Just saw it tonight. I have to say, I'd recommend it to everyone. At the end of the movie, at least half of the theater stood up and clapped. Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston have good on-screen chemistry, the laughs are plentiful, and it's rarely boring. Good message too. I really don't know what to say, other than watch it!

    I WAS gonna see it tonight but all my friends bailed on acount of a little rain. Wimps.

    It's funny that you're saying the exact opposite of what I read on CNN. Figures. They're usually way off.

    Looked like Something About Mary II to me. I think I can wait for the DVD.

    If you anticipation is so high, wouldn't it be better to spend $7 to go see it at the theatre than pay $16 to buy the DVD? You could even get popcorn and a Big Coke and come out ahead.

    Do you work for the government?

    I hear some places will actually let you take a DVD home for a couple of days for a small fee.

    That may just be a rumor, though.

    I think he meant wait for the DVD to rent. Thus, he would only be spending 4$ instead of 7$ and not have to deal with lines, assholes at the theater, etc.

    I prefer seeing movies at the theater but I'm just speaking from his perspective.

    It's the place where Pee Wee Herman goes to jerk off.

    I plan on seeing this next weekend - looking forward to it as I like Stiller and Aniston is easy on the eyes.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it last night as well, but half the theater didn't stand up and clap at the end. Personally, I thought it was really funny.

    And my goodness, when did freakin' Hank Azaria get so buff?!

    Btw, the trailer for the remake of Starsky and Hutch made me almost cry in anticipation. I burst out in laughter as soon as I saw Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller on the screen together again. I'm definitely watching that one opening day.

    You do realize that if multiple people watch a DVD, they don't all have to pay for it, right? :)

    Perhaps its YOU who work for the government! :D

    He's a Republican, what do you expect? He claims he's fiscally responsible, but just doesn't get it. :D

    Haha... wow we had the exact same takes on the movie.

    I was like dude! Hank Azaria? Talk about creatine!

    I also liked the movie. The trailer looked funny... but it's like they still haven't edited it that well yet. Hopefully there's better scenes than the ones they showed. My favorite was how Snoop Dogg was like "I know about grass" that was good.

    I don't know why you would, unless the people who made the movie were also in attendance.

    I thought clapping was to show appreciation for the performance, etc. Seems pointless if the people who are showing appreciation for aren't even there.

    I'm a Republican also.

    Therefore, your meager point has been proven counterfactual. Do not attempt to match your deficient acumen against mine.

    CASE CLOSED

    :D

    Although Hank Azaria's buff body took me by surprise, what completely floored me was the fact that Debra Messing did not look completely flat! Even in a swimsuit!
