    I enjoyed Transformers 3. It was dark and actually funny this time around. Massive improvement over the other parts of the series.

    No, Drag Me To Hell is the worst. Insidious actually had a good concept going, but it was low-budget costumes and two unfit actors to play the "ghost hunters" role.

    The horror scenes were actually good in my opinion. Like when the editor cut some frames out of the scene with the 3 people starring at the camera who instantly go from normal to smiling. Shits creepy.

    drag me to hell was intentionally campy, and i enjoyed it for that.
    the talking goat was epic win.

    lol you saw a sam raimi horror film for all the wrong reasons.

    i HATED watching ads for it, because all i could think about was everybody going to see it thinking it was supposed to be something like Insidious. lol.

    I saw HP last week, and I wasn't impressed by it. Im not a fan of the series, I took my missus to see it because she loved the books and films. Neither of us really thought it was good. It wasn't bad, just not good.

    Drag Me to Hell I didnt mind, but I was honestly surprised that Bruce Campbell wasn't it in. I knew it was going to be a cheese-fest going into it, so I wasn't surprised.

    After digesting it for a few days, the last Harry Potter doesn't really have much substance. It sure was fun to watch though. I think the proper way to watch the last movie would be part one immediately followed by part two, because the first one is where all of the important story substance comes out, and part two is basically a two hour fast paced action sequence. The action is well paced though, with lulls placed appropriately to keep things interesting.

    IMO the first 3 were the best.

    The Goblet of Fire was a very good one, But my favorite is probably the last one just because of all the amazing plot twists and secrets that came out.

    Transformers 3 was defidently the best in the series. Several times I actually tjought all hope was lost. No Megan Fox though made me mad.... lol

    Insidious was kind of dumb. I didnt even jump. I do want to see Drag Me To Hell though.

    Heres one I would suggest:
    Year One. Its been out for a while but I still laugh myself to tears when Jack Black ruins the hunt for them.

    My gut feeling is saying that most people here won't or don't like Year One, but I definitely agree with you. I couldn't tell you exactly what was so good about the movie, but I just found it very funny.

    Its actually a really bad movie but the fact that we all seem to like dumb humor makes it funny. If it was not for this reason, I would have never watched it.

    It was funny in a goofy nobody-here-is-trying-hard-at-all kind of way. It consistently goes for the cheapest laughs and most cliche'd jokes, but the cast seemed to be having fun doing it, and as is often the case, that alone made the movie moderately enjoyable. Definitely a "go in with the lowest of expectations and you'll be pleasantly surprised" movie.

    Heres another movie I suggest:

    Master of Disguise

    Although its old, everything in the movie is so wierd and childish, you cant help but to laugh at it.

    Year One? *shudders* Didn't find that funny at all, really. There was maybe one or two bits that made me chuckle, the part where McLovin ****s them over being one, but every other joke fell flat for me. I honestly wasn't expecting much when I went to see it, and I was right in my assumptions, unfortunately. If you want to see Jack Blacks best movie, watch Pick of Destiny.

    Oh, and Master of Disguise was so cheesy and not funny, I nearly plucked my own eyeballs out due to frustration. /troll

    No no no no Jack Black's best movie by far is called Be Kind Rewind. It's also starring Mos Def. It's really quarky (not Master of Disguise level quarky), cheesy humor (but deftly done, paradoxically), that's very funny, enjoyable, and a great story.

    I'd have to agree with this. Off the bat, it's kinda stupid but really, you can let that slide once you see them remake all these different movies. My personal favourite might be the Men in Black remake.
