Oh yes, an 80's revival is already in motion. "You Spin me round" will be its anthem. That better happen.

I've found this too, and I'm a huge 80s fan so on the whole I'm not complaining. 20 years is long enough for things back then to seem fresh and cool again, or, for the lesser known things, long enough for them to be reused and passed off as original.

You can still choose to NOT watch in 3-D. It's a marketing gimmick that seems to be actually selling this go around -- I don't see anything wrong with it. The only bad thing is you are FORCED to pay the extra few dollars to watch something in 3D, even if you already have 3D glasses. Why they don't just charge a flat premium price for the 3D movie escapes me. I swear when I went to see My Bloody Valentine in 3D, it wasn't priced any different than if I had seen it in 2D.

Because we are slowly (or quickly depending on your point of view) returning back to the 80's pop icons (collars on shirts turned up, 3d glasses, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, New Kids on the Block has a new CD out last year). Bring back the Debbie Gibson/Tiffany feud I say. I'm of the opinion that this past decade (at least for America - sorry international Crappers ) has basically been the "Son of the 70's" from a cultural standpoint, and strangely enough, I'm hoping that the next decade is "Son of the 80's." Kinda like how the 50's was the son of the 20's?

That and in the 20's it was a "return to normalcy" after WWI, while the 50's had a similar attitude following WWII. Both decades saw increased prosperity for the US (once again, sorry international Crappers).

But you look like you're 12... a really hot 12, but 12 nonetheless. So maybe you got child admission? And yes, I know the 12 year old thing can be creepy, but I'd go any length to be funny. Wakka wakka!

I recently saw my very first 3D movie at the theaters. The new Final Destination. The movie itself wasn't very good, but I loved the heck out of the 3D. I look forward to more fun 3D movies to come out. Although I'd say it's time to end the craze when say "Brokeback Mountain 3D" comes out.

Portly? I don't even have one nice 'P' word to describe me Don't worry, I don't have very many either. In addition to having portly on the list too, I guess they could also call me persistent. Just ask that judge that's sentenced me after I ignored all those restraining orders.

And thus helped with the 'P' word dilemma Meat with his '12 year old' thing on the other hand appeared both puerile and perverted. Me, I'm almost
