  - How dare you. That's blasphemy (on Rush Hour) - MDH Jan 25, 08:13

  - I thought 3 was OK (not as great as the first 2, but decent), it was Alien 4 that was the god-awful one -- nm - amoxy Jan 25, 08:05
  - No way. It's levels above sh*t like Spiderman or Xmen or Pirates 3. Plus the assembly cut makes it considerably better. - Don Homer Jan 25, 08:05
  - [deleted] 5
    - I mean, it was so bad that I block it from my mind. - Spawn Jan 25, 08:04 4
      - Give the assembly cut version (available on dvd or blu) a try. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 25, 08:05 3

    - heh -- nm - Epiphany Jan 25, 08:10

  - seriously. (only crash went 10/10.) -- nm - JaxSean Jan 25, 08:13
- weren't they both nominated? -- nm - Gwaahjo Jan 25, 07:51
LIR: And I was in suck a great fucking mood till now. -- nm - lileve Jan 25, 07:42
ST Poll: Worst trilogy: The Matrix or Pirates of the Carribean? Both started in the A+ range for me and went downhill from there... - Beaker Jan 25, 07:41 31
- Compared to the first, The Matrix sequels didn't stand up. Pirates are all just middling to me. So, POTC. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 25, 07:57
- [deleted]
- LOTR -- nm - CQ Jan 25, 07:54 7
  - Now you're in crazy-town. The 3rd movie was the best in the trilogy. -- nm - Trish Jan 25, 08:00 3
    - actually, I like 2 the best. -- nm - decline Jan 25, 08:00 2
      - There's just something about the huge charge, with riders as far as the eye can see that makes my heart go pitti-pat. -- nm - Trish Jan 25, 08:05
      - me too, by a lot. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 08:01
  - I have only seen a little of the third, but it is a bettr trilogy than these. By far. -- nm - Spawn Jan 25, 07:56 1
    - yeah, I haven't completed seeing them either, but I like the Pirates. Matrix should have stopped at 1. -- nm - CQ Jan 25, 07:59
  - I only saw the first one. I don't have that kind of time, man! -- nm - amanda jones Jan 25, 07:54
- [deleted]
- Pirates. Never finished it and never will. -- nm - Spawn Jan 25, 07:50 1
  - Good decision. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 25, 08:09
- Pirates. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 07:49
- Pirates -- nm - decline Jan 25, 07:46
- Matrix. at least I could stomach Jack Sparrow for three films (and possibly a fourth). -- nm - Buzz Jan 25, 07:45
- Pirates was worse. -- nm - Jovian Jan 25, 07:45
- I haven't seen Pirates 3, but I'd very surprised if it's worse than Matrix Revolutions. -- nm - Inigo Jan 25, 07:44 1
  - it was 500 times worse -- nm - Jovian Jan 25, 07:45
- Matrix. I never finished it and never will -- nm - oblique Jan 25, 07:44
- POTC -- Both #3's rank in the D range for me...but I think Matrix 2 was better than POTC2. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 25, 07:44 2
  - Pirates 3 was virtually unwatchable for me. While not good, I at least watched Matrix 3. -- nm - MDH Jan 25, 07:44 1
    - I was pretty disappointed in Pirates 3. - Mel Profit Jan 25, 07:49
- For me, Matrix totally sucked balls from the first minute of the first movie, then it went totally downhill from there. - Trish Jan 25, 07:44 2
  - spoils - TFox Jan 25, 07:45 1
    - *laughing* and you almost spelled it correctly -- nm - Trish Jan 25, 08:02
- of those, Matrix fo sho. -- nm - TFox Jan 25, 07:43
- Matrix. Did not like either of the sequels, very much a letdown from 1 to 2 -- nm - amoxy Jan 25, 07:43
- Definitely Pirates. -- nm - MDH Jan 25, 07:42
- Of those two choices, definitely Pirates of the Carribean. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 25, 07:42
- Matrix trilogy is worse for me. -- nm - Beaker Jan 25, 07:41
I did not hate Toy Story 3. I thought it was heavily a re-hash, though, and just all right. - ty97 Jan 25, 07:40 7
- I thought it was a perfect conclusion to the entire arc of the story. It fit perfectly well as the third and final piece of the whole puzzle. -- nm - Buzz Jan 25, 07:41 3
  - There were poignant pieces that would have made a stellar short film. - ty97 Jan 25, 07:44 1
    - I think the re-hash was needed to remind you why the first two were great. But I'm biased, don't listen to me. :) -- nm - Buzz Jan 25, 07:49
  - yes. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 25, 07:42
- I agree. You posted this before, but do you have a list of all the book of the month books? -- nm - amoxy Jan 25, 07:41 2
  - Sure - ty97 Jan 25, 07:44 1
    - TY ty. I will bookmark this so I don't have to ask again -- nm - amoxy Jan 25, 07:45
why does your state suck? -- (link) - znufrii Jan 25, 07:38 37
- Least government influence? There's way worse than that--least tolerance of homosexuals, almost worst in racial diversity, hardcore religion embedded - Trish Jan 25, 07:58
- I was thinking when Parade magazine in the Sunday paper had Sela Ward on the cover they could have titled it "The only good thing to come out of - HdnAgnda Jan 25, 07:55 3
  - Huh? -- nm - basically all of popular music via the blues Jan 25, 08:02
  - *pouts* -- nm - Elvis SI Jan 25, 07:56 1
    - He moved to Memphis as soon as he could get out. -- nm - Trish Jan 25, 08:08
- [deleted]
- Waitaminnit! South Dakota said rape twice! -- nm - con_carne Jan 25, 07:50 3
  - I thought that would be Alaska. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 25, 07:53 1
    - You keep your personal data points to yourself, mister -- nm - con_carne Jan 25, 07:58
  - "I like rape." -- nm - South Dakota Jan 25, 07:51
- "least green state" meh, I thought we would get nailed for meth and murder -- nm - Hotkiss Jan 25, 07:49 1
  - Meth maybe, but no chance it takes the murder crown. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 25, 08:26
- Teacher Salary. Yeah we like stupid kids here. -- nm - sycor Jan 25, 07:48
- Ohio gets off the easiest, imho. - znufrii Jan 25, 07:47 1
  - And actually the meanest is North Dakota - amoxy Jan 25, 07:51
- [deleted] 6
  - because a single point of data negates the whole thing. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 07:50 1
    - macs suck! diesel cars stink! (you have to admit this is funny coming from you.) -- nm - amanda jones Jan 25, 07:53
  - well, not everyone who lives here is as awesome as you. - znufrii Jan 25, 07:48 3
    - [deleted] 1
      - nope, I'm here in the office today, so it is entirely accurate. :) -- nm - znufrii Jan 25, 07:52
    - all those cars on the bridge and people on the subways? Illusions. -- nm - loosilu Jan 25, 07:51
- And I think it is hilarious that Utah is worse for Porn Usage -- nm - amoxy Jan 25, 07:46 1
  - the least surprising state, imho. :) -- nm - znufrii Jan 25, 07:55
- There are some weird mama-jamas over in Washington State -- nm - decline Jan 25, 07:44

  - from the source article, it's speccifically alcohol related motorcycle deaths, -- (link) - znufrii Jan 25, 07:42
it could be bunnies. -- nm - TFox Jan 25, 07:38 1
- or maybe midgets -- nm - Beaker Jan 25, 07:39
yeah, I slipped on the ice this morning and scraped and sprained my right wrist a little bit. damn, that smarted -- nm - CQ Jan 25, 07:38 7
- eff you, pansy. tell us more cute Pinch stories. - Mel Profit Jan 25, 07:46 5
  - kid is awesome. He is seconds away from crawling. He is such a great kiddo - CQ Jan 25, 07:52 4
    - that's what I'm talking about. Cool. Less Whining. More Pinch. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 25, 07:53 3
      - dude, I fell on my ass, heh. well, my hip and right wrist to be exact. I forgot to wear my shoe cramp ons -- nm - CQ Jan 25, 07:56 2
