OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately

Well, what was the "official statement?"

The statement we were read was that "due to unreconcilable differences of opinion between Mr. Joss Whedon and FOX studios, the stage area was going to be closed and all production would be ended". The stage areas were cleared and the doors locked, and it was time to find a new job elsewhere.

Went and saw "Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Mans Chest" this weekend, and I can't decide if it was a good movie or if I got screwed.

Seems to me that about halfway through the movie it lost focus and meandered. And the end definitely bites. It was way too obviously geared toward a sequel, instead of closing out a storyline that already got lost occasionally.

To be fair, the ending is open because it's the second part of a trilogy.

To beat the "Joss Whedon" horse to death--an award from Equality Now organization:

You did indeed warn us... This is what I get for not paying attention.

I hear all the rants and raves about that movie, and keep thinking WTF because I left it seriously disappointed.
