I never heard of it.  It seems like it would get some promo here in the U.S. Speaking of Speilberg, I heard yesterday on one of the entertainment shows, that he was directing a new tv show about a family who somehow gets transported back to prehistoric times. Anyone else know anything about it? TIS

NBC unveiled its new fall schedule Monday at its upfronts presentation in New York. Among the new shows announced was "Smash," a midseason drama starring Katharine McPhee ("American Idol") as a Broadway ingénue that is already being compared with "Glee."
The series is executive produced by Steven Spielberg and is centered on a songwriting duo, played by Tony Award nominee Christian Borle ("Legally Blonde: The Musical") and Debra Messing ("Will & Grace"), who are trying to create a Broadway musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe. It also stars Anjelica Huston.
Well, it certainly doesn't sound like the Speilberg series I mentioned.  Hmmmm TIS

Never saw "The Hitcher" but thanks, I've added the original to my Netflix queue...
Saw The Hitcher (1986) and it did give me the creeps -- what an asshole! However, I must've misread the description or someone's post here, because I was expecting C. Thomas Howell to ALSO be a serial killer and thought what a great idea having two of them stalking each other. 
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

I never heard of it. It seems like it would get some promo here in the U.S. Tintin was a Belgian adventure comic strip, about a kid reporter and his dog, with as much popularity and recognitiion in Europe as Superman or Batman or Spider-Man. Practically unknown in America outside of nerd nation. I think the Euro-residents around here can summarize it much better than I can. Fascinating enough, several European critics back in the day compared RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK w/ Tintin.

Has anyone see Hangover II yet? I know it broke records this weekend for comedy. I happened only by chance to watch the first Hangover when it was on HBO. I don't normally get into comedies that much but I loved this one. I laughed so hard, I told everyone I knew to see it. It was hilarious. I'm hearing not so good reviews on the new one though. TIS

Speaking of reviews, lately I've been surfing over to Rotten Tomatoes and plugging in the titles of some movies. It's surprising that some of them like Tommy Boy that were hits got bad reviews.

TIS, I want to see it, but haven't yet. I also found the first unexpectedly hilarious. I honestly don't remember the last time I laughed that hard at a movie. My daughter's friends saw the sequel yesterday and said it was just as funny. SB, I just happened to be searching for something good to see. To be honest, when I choose a movie or go to a theater, I always choose the drama or action, but never comedy. I tuned in to the Hangover and was cracking up thru the whole thing. I called both my kids right after and told they they had to see it. My daughter and son-in-law rented it that same weekend and thought it was really funny. Usually though, sequels never match up, but you never know. Let me know if you do see it  TIS
