Watched about 1hr and 30m of Shutter Island. Had to turn it off. What a piece of crap.

I didn't get through it either. I would just describe it as blah.

I thought it was a beautifully shot and acted movie with a wonderful ambience that was knocked down a few pegs by the final revelation or 'twist.'

I was certainly expecting more but I am suprised you guys both couldn't get to the ending, which was the only part that felt 'blah' to me.

I'm thinking of going to see the Stooges. I'm not expecting anything special but I think it will be silly and worth a laugh.

I've already laughed a fair bit at the trailers. I mean if the Stooges don't do it for you, just turn in you man badge right now.

As soon as I realised that they had people from Jersey Shore in it, I checked out.  Although they also have Kate Upton in a Nunkini, so I might check back in.

Jersey Shore?.... I don't like that but I still think I'll go.

From the little bits I have seen each of the three actors is playing their roles really well.
 
Just came back from seeing Chimpanzee. What incredible footage and without spoiling it, it's amazing that they actually caught what happened during their time filming them. - Something which Jand Goodall in a recent interview suggested is probably about 1 in 100,000. 
 
Lockout
A man wrongly convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage against the U.S. is offered his freedom if he can rescue the president?s daughter from an outer space prison taken over by violent inmates.

Why have I not heard of this yet?  It sounds amazing.
 
As a guy who loves Ed Norton, and doesn't particularly like Mark Ruffalo, the Hulk was the best part.

I'll be at the theatre this weekend to see it properly.
 
Just saw the Avengers (in 3D.) Started kind of "meh" but picked up around the midway point rather nicely I thought. All in all a good flick and worth forking out theatre prices.

Spoiler Alert;

Anyone who saw it think they made Hulk kind of over the top powerful? - Though I do think he provided a couple of the movie's finer moments.
 
I thought Joss Whedon did a fantastic job and yeah, the Hulk and Ruffalo were stealing scenes left and right.

Not particularly.  I mean, he is "strongest there is".  If he had been able to pick up Thor's hammer then it might bug me, but he wasn't.

Good point. I Forgot about that one. - a pretty solid detail. I just wasn't expecting Hulk to be able to take on everyone and everything the way he did. He didn't look to be particularly vulnerable to anything.

I've been reading a few comics since I saw the movie, and that seems to be pretty much the case.  In the one I was just reading, he jumped into the core of a dying planet, and pulled the tectonic plates together while swimming in magma.

EDIT: And his pants were still on when he re-emerged.  I don't necessarily want to see full frontal nude Hulk, but it's strange that it never happens.

Ah, yes.. Otherwise known as the Wendel Clark hat trick.  :)
 
The Hulk is, in theory, the strongest of any of the Marvel characters - his strength is proportional to his anger.
 
I saw the movie and enjoyed it. I didn't care for the story but it had moments and was well done, good eye candy.

Downey owns that ironman character.
