I didn't see a thread for this so decided to post it up and see what others might think of this movie.
Personally, I enjoyed it like crazy lol. I was laughing through about 70% of the entire movie. The whole meshing of 16-bit video game art throughout the movie really made it visually pleasing. I don't know... I'm not much of a movie critic but this one goes towards the top of my list on favorite movies :D.

Seems interesting, but at the same time, I don't feel like paying to go see it.
Will probably wait 'till it comes out on DVD or something unless I read some great reviews to make me think otherwise.

Me too. But I'm actually kinda interested in seeing it. Looks funny to me. Like the kind of thing that self-affirmed nerds would enjoy. GF want to see it, so I'll probably be watching it tomorrow.
Sidenote: What is with Chris Evans and all the comic book movies!? He's trying to corner the market or something! 2 Fantastic 4 movies, The Losers, Scott Pilgrim and now Captain America! And probably more that I don't know about... WTF...

I would guess Michael Cera is genuinely funny in real life but the character he is playing is pretty much himself so it's really going to be hard to break out of it.
Plus he's been in a ton of stuff and most, if not all, does well so until that check doesn't clear, Hollywood ain't gonna stop eating out.

True, he does play the same role in everything he's done so far
but it hasn't gotten on my nerves yet
maybe it's because they're all small indy films that don't get shoved in my face
did anyone see Youth In Revolt? Paper Heart?

There are a lot of people in here saying this movie was bad/sucked/etc., but then they name the reasons why, and immediately, it is apparent that they have never seen the actual comic, and they're actually expecting like, character development, back story, srs bzns, etc.
I'm sorry, but this movie is based on a comic book, and it takes a lot of cues from it, as well as elements from videos games and the such, so knowing that, and if you decided to still go see it, how can you be let down by those same elements?
It's like someone not studying for a test, then getting a bad grade, and then blaming the test for being too hard, even though you knew in advance that by not studying you're more than likely going to bomb it.

Honestly, I have never even heard of the comic books until I watched the Comic-Con coverage by G4, and they had mentioned it.
I knew the movie couldn't have just magically come from a brilliant Hollywood director from thin air; I mean I sort of knew it had to have been a comic book movie, but I had no idea how "cutesy" the type of style/art the comic book had, which made the movie instant win just from watching the trailers.
Shit, even without knowing what the movie was about, the trailers made it look pretty damn funny.
So yeah, for all those of you that are taking this shit way too seriously, please go kill yourself because apparently you don't know what "fun" is anymore, so why live?

Went into watching the movie with no idea what it was about.
First ten minutes of the movie had me laughing a 'wtf?' type of laugh. Then after I was accustomed to what type of movie it was, I kept laughing and enjoying it til the end. The vegan thing was hella funny too. hahaha.
I would definately watch it again, as well, maybe even buy it once it comes out on DVD (blueray can kiss my ass).
Only people I could see not being able to fully enjoy it, are people who have never played a video game, watched anime or kung fu hustle, and is a totally serious bear.
I liked the movie, so yeah.
Speaking of Kung Fu Hustle, if you liked that movie, it is along the same line of humor.

I don't know about you, but the majority of the people in this thread found the movie enjoyable, even if they didn't laugh at everything.
Just admit you're a srs bear and you wouldn't laugh even if funny sucker punched you in the face and then tea bagged you.
PS - but yes, I can't forget to put "to each his own".

I can't imagine anyone growing up on NES classics not liking this movie.

You'd have to strip "Knives" down to nothing to find out if she way a boy or girl. Ramona wins by default.

Seriously, there was nothing that I did not love about this movie. Even the gays were awesome and funny...

It was better than I thought. I think it had a little something for everyone.
