I couldn't disagree more about your stance on “Drag Me to Hell,” but to each his own.

I hated “The Proposal.” Nothing good for this week or next week, though “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” (another movie that I also didn't like) will be a huge title for some fans of the first film, but not for me. I think there is rarely a good title, but I hope “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs” makes a run for its money.

You're my target audience Cole, and you pinpointed exactly what this column is… a list of titles that were released. With sass. Hopefully I highlight something you didn't hear about previously, but I would never expect anyone to take my recommendations seriously. Even if they are accurate.

I personally look at this article as more of a “What Came Out This Week” type thing, but that's mostly because I learned to tune out Hunter's opinions years ago.

I don't even see the RENT, BUY, AVOID labels anymore.

“Drag Me to Hell” is a decent horror comedy but it is worth nothing more than a rent. I can see where Hunter is coming from, though.

Objectified looks so cool!!! Oh, and also… you're not the only one that didn't like Drag Me to Hell. It had everything it needed to be great, or at least good, or at least kinna good, and wasn't. Awesome list. Straight awesome. PS FUTURAMA FOREVER. I really want that boxed set. Wonder what the letter says…wait, no. I don't. Just want. :) Great column!

Sorry Rob. Got a little emotional ;-)

I figured you'd at least give it a rental, since everyone but you enjoyed it.

I do need to give you PROPS for recommending Hardware, though. Love that movie.

It's kind of silly to make that decision based on one movie recommendation, but that said… I'm the only one here at FSR who thinks the movie sucks. Pretty much every other writer and editor here enjoyed the movie and would recommend you Buy or Rent it. So stop taking my suggestions to heart if you must, but don't let my minority opinion taint your view of FSR.

Think I just stopped taking Film School Rejects' advice on what movies are good.

Drag Me to Hell in the AVOID list? Not even a rental? Lame.

First off: Appalling placement of Land of the Lost and Drag Me To Hell. The former was shittacular, but the latter is CERTAINLY worth a rent. That movie is fun as hell. No you won't be scared shitless; I equate it to a roller coaster. There are some thrills, and then you laugh because you jumped, and then you laugh because it grosses you out. It's an incredibly fun movie; I didn't know anybody could leave it without enjoying it… I'm not a fanboy either.

As for New World Order, we laugh, but look what happened to JFK. People start believing the B.S…

I'm really really gonna have to disagree with you on the Drag Me To Hell placement. Otherwise, solid list.

I reiterate my position that Land of the Lost is shit. Like 4 laughs, each lasting 8 seconds, in a 90 minute movie.
