i read weren't anything special and it's got a 49% on rotten tomatoes..

i just checked those actually. Ebert's review was pretty good, so that's encouraging. To me, anyway.
I guarantee I'll see it this weekend. I've gone off the deep end in the last 6 months or so with werewolf movies, the original Wolf Man is my favorite of the classic Universal horrors, and the previews look like they paid proper homage to the original.
LOL. My buddy and I were drunk at the Blues vs. Ducks hockey game a few weeks ago. There is a player on the Ducks whose name is Kyle Chipchura. His season tickets are right by the visitor's tunnel about 4 rows off the ice. The whole night we were yelling, "Nice shot, Chupacabra!", and "Chupacabra, Chupacabra,Chupacabra". We had the visitor's bench rolling.

The movie is worth it for Downey alone. Parts of it are hit and miss and it drags in part, but Downey is lights out. If you could watch a montage of Downey's scenes you'd be all set.
I have seen parts of TT several times and good lord there are some funny moments. I'm not even sure if I've seen the first 30 minutes.
Going to see a what I expect to be a crappy movie with my daughter this morning, The Lightning Thief, since she read nearly 300 pages yesterday so she could finish before seeing the film. Anyway, it's showing in both formats at Ronnies and we'll be seeing digital unless it's sold out (because of show time not format).
Watched Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome last night. It'd been a few years. What an odd movie. Doesn't take itself too seriously.
I did a major paper college about The Road Warrior that was a ton of fun (everyone else chose movies like Gone With the Wind or Remains of the Day, etc). All the Mad Max movies have a special spot for me, even one with a miscast Tina Turner and a bunch of annoying kids.
