four times because they were ingrown beat the shit out of Clone Wars
The first Madagascar had a few dark jokes by drewlicious	Nov 7th, 2008 07:10:09 PM
Most notably the penguins, especilaly at the South Pole (Well this sucks.) The American Beauty joke was unexpected.
Over-rated, medeocre movie. So what if it did box office? by zekmoe	Nov 7th, 2008 07:17:37 PM
Left me cold. I have over 100 animated classics, and have watched many dozens of times. That one was just nothing. Dull drawings, silly "plot" and few funny jokes. Kids liked it but didn't love it. B- or C+ at best. Way below any Pixar anything.

and only 6 replies to it? That doesnt bode well for these movies if nobody cares enough to come here and bash them!
I never gave it a chance by Gelatinousman	Nov 7th, 2008 07:31:41 PM
until my kid got it as a gift. Now I really like it. It grows on you. It has a good rewatchability value. It has stuff for grown-up and tons for kids. Of course it is not Pixar, but I give it a good B-. It is not gross, vulgar or violent. I'll go see the second one with my kids for sure.

The reason no one is posting is no one wants to disparage a dead guy. Like I'm going to write right here, "I love Bernie Mac" and "His set on 'Kings of Comedy' is one of the best stand-up acts I have ever seen". But no one is going to shit on these movies; not when the heading reads "Two of Bernie Mac's last films". That would even be lowdown for this group of talkbackers.
good point moviemenace by the milf lover	Nov 7th, 2008 11:09:18 PM
I didnt consider that, there's always idiots bashing the dead in the obit threads.

No, sorry, but you're wrong. Madagascar is twenty times the movie Cars was. Whichever way you approach it, funny, well-written, fun for kids, fun for adults - whatever. Madagascar worked and Cars didn't. End of.

You are right. I forgot about Cars. What a boring movie. Only Pixar I don't have and will never buy. Saw the DVD for 2$ this summer in a garage sale and I didn't pick it up.
Baldwin in it? Awww, Crap... by KosherWookie	Nov 8th, 2008 09:52:45 AM
...I really wanted to go see this, too! Well, then, I guess it's "Wait Until It Comes Out On DVD And Buy A Used Copy From The Local Video Store" time...
His Def Jam comedy special by most excellent ninja	Nov 8th, 2008 10:37:46 AM
killed me, fuck that was funny. The hip hop breaks in between after he screams "kickass!" and then starts dancing. Fuck. I miss the Mac.
Madagascar was better than Revenge of the Sith by Supermans	Nov 8th, 2008 11:01:26 AM
Sacha Baron Cohen singing "I like to move it move it" had to be the funniest bit in a cartoon ever.. The penguins were hilarious..
Saw this last night in IMAX by Darth Mulder	Nov 8th, 2008 02:11:04 PM
IT SUCKS!!!
Madagascar 2: I liked it by drewlicious	Nov 10th, 2008 02:26:26 PM
There were actually a lot of good laughs, some of it was surprisingly violent. Let's just say a penguin wielding a switchblade is a hysterical image.
