    Sorry Smoke none of them interest me. I was tired of Pirates after the last one. Will Ferrell can't act. Owen Wilson can't pull off the male romantic lead in a movie. I'm not quite ready to forgive Mel Gibson. I was never into Thor. Jump The Broom may be OK since Tyler Perry isn't in it.

    Brides Maids may be a renter if they're slutty enough.

    I'll stick to Netflix. Thanks Anyway.

    You're a tough customer Jack :)

    Bloodworth might be worth checking out as Kris Kristofferson is pretty good actor despite being a country music star. I like kung fu movies, so True Legend might go on my list also.

    I was not much into comics as a kid but Thor was one that I liked so I will be checking that one out. Of course another comic I liked was Daredevil so I hope the Thor movie does not follow in those footsteps....... :)

    That one with the beaver puppet is challenging Kung Fu Panda 2 for most appealing, measuring somewhere between left-over eggs and an onion sandwich.

    The rest I'll need a few guinea pigs to talk me into. If Will Ferrell's character is chased by a Vampire, I'd say this list has pretty much hit every current Hollywood movie cliche going.

    Well, I have to admit that Thor has me intrigued. Still mulling whether I will check it out in the theater, or wait to rent it.

    I will probably check out Kung Fu Panda - I liked the first one a lot.

    I am going to a premiere of Pirates on the Disney lot in a couple of weeks. Nothing like watching a movie in Disney's Digital theater. Some of the best visuals and sound west of the Mississippi. I just want to see were they are taking good ole Jack this time around.

    I have decided against seeing Jumping the Broom because Tyler Perry is NOT in it! LOL thanks JIW.

    Mel Gipson and a sock puppet beaver - ummm no thanks to that.

    yeah, I like ol' Kris, and Dwight Yoakam may not be a thespian of the highest order, but he knows how to play an a-hole. (I mean that as a compliment. See Sling Blade.)

    Maybe Yoakam sing this time instead of being an a-hole as he played a very rough charactor in Sling Blade.
