Saw the movie today.  I absolutely loved it.  The message was completely anti-humanity, but it was still a good movie.  I don't care what they called them in the movie...dragons are dragons....and they were so totally badass.  The mecha was a little lame but I loved the VTOL's and such...and yeah the archery was cool as hell.  Especially when they started driving the arrows through canopies and shit.

It was a good mix of the matrix, gorillas in the mist, dancing with wolves, and just kickass in general.

Saw a preview for How To Train Your Dragon...cannot wait for that.  Looks great!

They all shot from both sides...but the "practices" and the first scene she was shooting in were left.  They had all three fingers on the string.

     Dang, now I guess I will have to go see it.  A ten foot woman in a thong, you betcha! :o  Man just imagine, to look up and see that! ::)
Well even if it is an anti human, alien bunny hugger movie, I will have to see it now, after all these testimonials! ;D  Well there goes ten bucks.  Hmmm, maybe not, Senior Citizen, and all maybe I can get by with that.  They may want proof. :(  I hope not.  Anyway, whatever, I am going to have to see that.  It will be by myself, since my Girlfriend doesn't care for Sci Fi.  I don't care for Mush Movies, so the only thing we see together, are comedy's, mostly.  Some drama type too.

Go see the first showing in the morning...I don't know if it counts where you are but Cinemark does matinee showings early in the day.  $5 this morning to see it (2D).

Your right in a way I guess but it came off to me that way. Like they were trying to educate the audience as to how bad we are. no big deal though. I thought it was a bit comical how they threw in the blatant stereotypical shots saying it was some type of shock and awe campaign and if you have something they want they make you the enemy and kill you to get it. Either it was liberals making a spoof about themselves or they just thought the audience would be to dumb to decipher something more subtle. Made me laugh a few times with comments like that :D Like said earlier though it was a really fun movie to watch. Thumbs up :)

We're natural.  There's nothing against our fellow man or nature that doesn't occur in nature.  Beavers have destroyed entire micro-ecosystems.  Birds and rabbits frequently breed themselves into such overpopulation that they've starved themselves to death. If you think HUMANS do nasty things to one another...don't look at what the rest of the world's predators do to one another, or other species.  We're the most compassionate thing on this planet.

The movie is just like every other movie with sigourney weaver in it...people are bad save three or four of us.

Thanks Makenzie. Humans rule ;D The world is ours :D. We should take good care of it but it is ours to do as we please. We are the only ones that even have the capacity to care about the planet.  Everything is here for our enjoyment.  Be happy you are human. Enjoy it. Would the world be better off without us? Who cares. Without humans who cares what happens. We are the only ones here given the ability to care or even think about that. But yeah about the movie. Very entertaining :)
