But yeah, we all have different tastes.

I think Melissa McCarthy is hilarious, although I can see how she might get on some people's nerves. She's kinda like Robin Williams in that you just turn on the camera and let her go...and I think her movies tend to suffer because they have to cut out some of the plot to fit in all of her improvising! She's AWESOME on SNL. She would have been a great cast member if she had gone that route instead of choosing to break in through acting. (I think because her cousin Jenny McCarthy got her started that way.)Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917316172488329464.post-68069511017850327052016-07-13T10:56:45.423-04:002016-07-13T10:56:45.423-04:00Jeff - Lately, I haven't been too impressed wi...Jeff - Lately, I haven't been too impressed with movies. At least, not enough to get me to the theatre. Can't tell if it's me (getting cranky) or the movies! :)<br /><br />Maria - I have seen a couple of movies with her in it, and I just don't like her type of comedy. I should say we. Hubby doesn't like her either. I have a feeling I won't be watching the new Ghostbusters unless one of the kids buys the DVD later on and loans it to us. :)Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917316172488329464.post-84504541969667641542016-07-13T08:02:36.250-04:002016-07-13T08:02:36.250-04:00We're definitely seeing Star Trek.
re: Melis...We're definitely seeing Star Trek. <br /><br />re: Melissa McCarthy<br />She's hit or miss with us. One movie she was good in was Spy.

Personally, I'd rather see folks come up with something original rather than feel the need to remake everything, but I suppose (hope) they're not just taking the script and rewriting it for gender and adding a couple of modern cultural references. <br /><br />JeffOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947660745120963286noreply@blogger.com
