Massawyrm Desperately Tries To Avoid The Obvious Pun With ENCHANTED!!

PLANT! by Wugmanmax	Nov 21st, 2007 09:39:08 AM
Yeah, just kidding. My kids want to see this and I thought it looked good too, good to hear it is!
Amy Adams by cesaria	Nov 21st, 2007 09:41:05 AM
I would see this just for Amy Adams. She gave the best performance of the year in Junebug last year. It helps she's easy on the eyes too.
so what's the obvious pun...? by MC-909	Nov 21st, 2007 09:56:14 AM
So what's the obvious pun mentioned in the article's title? Am I missing something?
wow, Massawyrm, first Hairspray, now this by finky089	Nov 21st, 2007 09:58:45 AM
Somebody's showing his softer side. Not that there's anythign wrong with that. Actually I'm glad to hear this flick turned out okay because my fiance wants to see it and I was afraid it'd be the same ol' pap.
MC-909 - the obvious pun by finky089	Nov 21st, 2007 09:59:31 AM
is that he was "enchanted" by ...Enchanted.
Thanks Finky by MC-909	Nov 21st, 2007 10:02:46 AM
Also, what was the movie where a film critic charged for different phrases relating to a reviewed film? Like, $500 gets you "charming" or "delightful"...$1000 gets you "splendid". Anyone?
I liked this post better when it was called TEST by INWOsuxRED	Nov 21st, 2007 10:17:14 AM
RIDE THE SNAKE!
Yo Massawyrm what about the short? by nonsensical	Nov 21st, 2007 10:28:12 AM
Did they show the Goofy short? Was everyone who saw this film thus far screwed out of the opening short? I want to know.
Nothing wrong with having a softer side. by Barry Egan	Nov 21st, 2007 10:42:48 AM
I really don't get why people who visit a film site like this aren't open to all kinds of films. I am firnly with Massawyrm in the praise of Hairspray. I had been hearing for weeks that Enchanted was really good. I just want to see good films, I don't care about the genre.
TREASON!!!! TREE!!! SUN!!!!! by BringingSexyBack	Nov 21st, 2007 10:46:04 AM
I saw the trailer for this about a month and a half ago, and I must say it was one of the best trailers around. James Marsden doing the funny? Sold.
LOL. Massa - u r gay. by Mr.Meanie	Nov 21st, 2007 11:04:16 AM

I got no Goofy. by Massawyrm 1	Nov 21st, 2007 11:43:53 AM
I. Was. Fucking. Robbed.
Kudos to Massawyrm by Regenhund	Nov 21st, 2007 11:44:12 AM
Thanks for reviewing a family film just before the long weekend. We Dads tip or hat to ya.
^^^ Agree with Regenhund ^^^ by theBigE	Nov 21st, 2007 12:03:26 PM
Disney will take my $$$ this weekend.
Son of a BITCH!!! by Kentucky Colonel	Nov 21st, 2007 12:24:30 PM
Looks like BAY-Oh-Wulf will have to wait again. The trailer had me groaning...this had better work!
Enchanted by David Assholehoff	Nov 21st, 2007 12:25:33 PM
Looks like a modern, Hannah Montanah-ized Princess Bride. Taking my kids to this instead of Bee Movie, thank god.
Inconceivable! by David Assholehoff	Nov 21st, 2007 12:27:17 PM
Might have been to much to lump Enchanted in with that classic. "You keeled muy fatha, ppprepare to die."
he said PRINCESS DIARIES...not PRINCESS BRIDE by Magic Rat	Nov 21st, 2007 12:40:57 PM
big difference.
Thats what I said by David Assholehoff	Nov 21st, 2007 12:50:24 PM
I made a mistake and said I was wrong. Egads, it's no Princess Bride. Not by a F***ing mile.
it's like rain on your wedding day by PrettyNursePoppy	Nov 21st, 2007 01:07:54 PM
If you're enchanted by "Enchanted," that's not a pun. That's just repeating the same word with the same definition. "I was spellbound by Enchanted" or "I was bewitched by Enchanted" are a bit better, but still not puns.
Oh stop it, Pretty Nurse Poppy by Massawyrm 1	Nov 21st, 2007 01:21:56 PM
It was much better than the much more honest 'Massawyrm tries to write a headline at 4 in the morning before staggering off to bed for an embargoed review he wrote like a week ago and almost forgot to submit." =P
In defiance of all conventional wisdom by Larry of Arabia	Nov 21st, 2007 01:36:32 PM
I'm actually really, really looking forward to this movie.
I am truly sorry... by nonsensical	Nov 21st, 2007 02:15:50 PM
Call your theater and ask if it is running with this film. Then DEMAND that they allow you to see the short.
Okay... Massawyrm and other audiences... by nonsensical	Nov 21st, 2007 02:36:09 PM
You were screwed... completely screwed. Apparently reviews and screenings of Enchanted are not being accompanied by the Goofy short How to Hookup Your Home Theater. I was very concerned about this given how great the short is and how much I want others to see it too. So I did some digging. According to Disney the short will now debut with National Treasure: Book of Secrets on December 21. This is apparently being done to get Disney's new cartoon shorts program more exposure among general moviegoing audiences, rather than just animated film audiences. Something of a mistake in my opinion given that Enchanted is a better family film vehicle. Again, I am truly sorry for you all who will be robbed of seeing Goofy for another month.
do you know why mickey divorced Minnie? by Lloyd Bonafide the Korean War Veteran	Nov 21st, 2007 02:39:17 PM
Because she was F-ing Goofy.
Enchanted? by Trazadone	Nov 21st, 2007 03:24:51 PM
Jesus Christ, I thought this was about "cool" news. Enchanted might have appealed to me when I was 8-years old. Then again, I'm a guy so probably not. Seriously, why waste one single second on this? What's next, a review of High School Musical?
Sonds like a female version of Kate and Leopold by Proman1984	Nov 21st, 2007 04:07:30 PM
And I liked Kate and Leopold. Sue me and I dobnt this will be as good.
The other "Enchanted" film Ella Enchanted is great by ELGordo	Nov 21st, 2007 04:46:00 PM
Little seen film starring Anne Hathaway. Very funny stuff there also involving fairy tale humour. And that Princess Diaries comment offended me. What fucking shite that was.
Proman1984 by CherryValance	Nov 21st, 2007 04:58:43 PM
It did remind me of KATE AND LEOPOLD. A lot.
Now by Magma Suit	Nov 21st, 2007 05:41:21 PM
If only they would make feature length animated movies again...
I just came back from seeing this by Magic Rat	Nov 21st, 2007 10:12:53 PM
This is going to be odd to say, but this movie is probably the Terminator 2 of chick flicks. I was shocked at how much I liked this movie. I shouldn't have liked it. No grown man should like a cutesy, sappy, movie like this. But this movie is just infectious, and it never lets up. Even the musical numbers (and there are like, three of them) are funny and cute in their own way. My fiancee came out of this movie grinning from ear to ear and I was almost the same. You'll be very suprised at how much fun this movie was. Just don't tell any of your guy friends you saw it.
Cyclops run over by a pack of bicyclists... by Osmosis Jones	Nov 21st, 2007 10:19:30 PM
= COMEDY GOLD.
best line of the movie by Magic Rat	Nov 21st, 2007 10:26:32 PM
Marsden: "Thank you for taking care of my bride, pesants."
If nothing else by Harry Weinstein	Nov 22nd, 2007 03:12:39 AM
Nice to see Disney 2D animation again. Disney live-action trailers have a way of making movies look really bad, even when they're not. But holy crap, that was some fluid cel animation. Well done on that.
noiretblanc... by Wungolioth	Nov 22nd, 2007 10:21:23 AM
You're an asshole. You did make me laugh, though, so kudos.
If I was a plant, by Abhimanyu	Nov 23rd, 2007 11:52:02 AM
I would model myself on nonsensical. Just check out how good that set-up is to get someone into NatTreas2.
