    I'm just racking up the ignores! Sweet!

    If you do not like Kingpin, I am pretty sure you are a girl.

    I can understand why a girl would not like it.

    I got the feeling that they were fighting with the MPAA over this one. For the longest time, the film was advertised as Not Yet Rated, but just in the past few days, it is showing as R-rated.

    I'm willing to be they wanted the R rating. The r-rated trailer is great.

    I don't think I'm going to spend money to see this in the theater. Looks like a Will Ferrell movie that has been made repeatedly but switching sports.

    As many times as it takes to suck every penny out of anyone who will go see his movies.

    I'm gonna wait to see what people say about it when it comes out.

    On one hand, it has potential to be hilarious and he looks so damned funny.

    On the other hand, the previews have not made me laugh as of yet

    I am a big fan of Anchorman and Blades of Glory, but I'm not sure about this one. I WANT it to be good, and if people say it's funny I'll go check it out.

    But I agree about the sports-themed movies...time to switch it up (for instance he was really good in Stranger than Fiction)

    Crap. Looks like I just went blind.

    ...and yeah, Will Ferrell is horribly overrated. Anchorman was good. Move on already, Will.

    I'd be the first one in line if possible. I like Ferrell and will support him in everything he does.

    I'm already looking forward to Stepbrothers his next movie.

    Most of Ferrell's movies are pretty funny to me. If this is a cross of, say, Anchorman or TN with basketball I'm there.

    same here, even his bad films, well maybe not kicking and screaming or bewitched, can still get a few laughes out of me.

    rented it just because I figured, he Ferrell is usually funny and Kidman well I just like looking at her any chance i can get. Needless to say it was probably one of the biggest messes I've ever seen. Weird really esp. when you look at the rest of the cast, Caine and Carrell were in it too.

    Bewitched was awful. Watched some of it with my wife, and even she couldn't take the torture.
