From what I've heard being "half as good" as the first will be a stretch. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/meet_the_fockers/?bc=69
the previews look pretty embarassing. With the exception of 2 or 3 movies, Ben Stiller pretty much makes the worst movies ever. Same goes for DeNiro since Goodfellas.
I loved the first one, but the previews for Meet the Fockers look awful. I think I'll wait for Netflix on this one.
I once had high expectations for this one, though I never understood why they couldn't use Ben Stiller's real parents. After taking four years to come out (and not using his real parents), I just don't trust it to be that great. It will be funny having to pretend that no time has gone by in these characters' world. At this rate, they'll be senior citizens whenever they actually get married. I'm just afraid this Focker is going to be another lame sequel.
[Venting] I do not have the search option so I do not know if this has been covered but I have to get this off my chest. Ocean's 12. Yes Ocean's freaking 12. Absolutely the worst movie I have seen since The Beach (that is about 2 years by my count). I felt like crying and asking for my money back. I was duped. I was robbed. I was insulted. I promise not to watch Ocean's 13, 14 or 15 even if its cast include every celebrity in California. What aweful movie. George Clooney is overrated and that whole cast should go and burn. I still want my money back. [the end] Now I feel a little better.....:exhale:

Have to agree with Fegwu on this one. And regarding the Fockers, I usually disagree with the dumb movie critics, so...I'll go watch it.
