To be quite honest, I'm not 100% sure. I assume 'the pooh' -> 'the poo' -> 'horrible' 8-| ;)) But I did find it quite amusing.

Maybe Horrible Bosses was playing in the theater before Winnie came and somebody thought it would be a great joke? :p

I saw Cars 2 earlier this month. I liked it. I think it's completely underrated by critics and audiences alike. Cars is actually my favorite Pixar film to date. I was expecting not to like it based of a bad experience with TS3. I was wrong. The first half hour drags on, and I was starting to get a bit annoyed with Mater. After they are rescued by the plane though, things get better. I felt what Mater's character was feeling, and I liked how Pixar gave it a more complex plot.

Overall, not Pixar's best, but far from its worst. 7/10

Again CA was better, Thor's seemed so superficial.

I didn't hate the Thor romance, but it really did seem like a case of "Ooo, you're pretty and so am I! Let's be a couple!" while the CA romance progressed more naturally. And I thought it was a nice touch that after

Steve disappeared, it was a picture of pre-serum Steve that Peggy was looking at.

I interpreted F_K's picture as the theater saying that they were showing Cars 2, Winnie the Pooh, and Horrible Bosses. And that they were such a small theater they didn't quite have enough room on the sign. :P

I loved that touch too, very poignant.

A few weeks ago I saw Tree of Life - anyone else hear see that movie? It was only shown in certain specific theatres.
It was - a lot of things. Very hard to understand. Painful and horrible to watch. I don't want to ever see it again. And yet it was so indescribably, heartbreakingly amazing. Very very hard to explain. I think it's a movie every one should see, but they should be prepared. And there's no way to be prepared . . .
:P I know. But it's like that.

I got to see Captain America yesterday :D Thought it was awesome. Enjoyed the 40's time period, good looking (and talented) cast ( ;)) ), and I thought the last line was kinda sad/melancholy though (although I suppose it'll make his character arc in the Avengers more interesting)...

I also really liked the Avengers clip/trailer at the end, although it was going so fast, and I haven't seen the second Iron Man or Thor yet, for me to understand much of what was going on

Captain America, Riella. It's a good solid movie with a good message, clean content, and interesting storyline and acting.

give the atmosphere a chance.
Simply follow where I lead;
let me teach you how to dance."

I would definitely suggest Captain America. It was surprisingly good, and I would echo everything sweeetlilgurlie posted about the film.

Oh Captain America Ithie! It's amazing! I loved it and even though I am very sensitive when it comes to images I see Captain America didn't scare me a bit!

The reason it didn't scare you is because Captain America is a super-hero movie, not a horror movie!

Currently watching:
Doctor Who - Season 11

I think it depends on how "squeamish" one is and how old one is when they are watching a superhero movie.

Some superheroes movies are dark and gloomy in mood...which can sort of feel "scary"....

I don't think she meant scared in that way. Picture, for instance, a 5 year old watching a war scene in the movie. The 5 year old would be scared by the amount of mortal peril, not the "spookiness". :P

I noticed this difference in movie-watching mentality after I had watched Tron: Legacy and was discussing it with my sister (who usually doesn't watch non-kiddie movies). I thought the movie was exciting, but my sister was asking how people could enjoy movies where the main characters are in constant danger.
