well, simple enough. the hype has dyed down on that big summer blockbuster (or whatever other movie) you just never got around to seeing, you see it in the $5 bin at your local walmart months (or even years) later, and you pick it up.
so, what did you think? after everyone's done talking about it, and the hype surrounding it no longer factors into your opinion of it.
i just went dvd shopping, and decided to pick up a few movies i never saw, but was semi interested in, i got Hoodwinked, Zathura, and Dead Alive... so?
dead alive: why did no one tell me about this movie? why have i never heard of it? i effing love zombie movies, and this is the best b-zombie movie i've ever seen. and... also probably the goriest... and the corniest, but that's okay. also, my favorite peter jackson movie ever. maybe even the only one i've ever liked (with frighteners being the possible exception)
zathura: great movie, lots of heart (loved that little kid with his "i'm taking evasive action!!!"), awesome effects, the ending
was both predictable and handled poorly.
hoodwinked: it was okay. had a few 'lol' moments, mostly involving the squirrel, other than that, pretty forgettable. and the animation was soooOoooo bad compared to other cgi cartoons that've come out in the past 10 years. but overall the story wasn't bad.
there are a few more, but i'm getting ready to going out, so... yeah.

with the astronot (sp?) being the older version of the brother
