Around the JoBlo.com Watercooler! Despicable Me, Lohan and Pixar!

In this new weekly column we take a look at some of the hot conversations currently taking place around the virtual watercooler in the JOBLO.COM FORUMS. Each week we’ll present you with some new conversations that you can jump in quickly and participate in. Heck, it may even inspire you to create your own conversation. Here’s what people are talking about this week…

“Great movies you can’t watch more than once”

“Requiem for a Dream, a film that had a surprisingly powerful effect on me, after which I simply REFUSED to watch it EVER again.”

“Guilty DISpleasures”

“The idea here isn’t to post about films that you like to gloat about not enjoying, or think are overrated, or just plain bad. The idea is to find films that you UNDERSTAND and ACKNOWLEDGE are brilliant and amazing and important… but that you must admit, just didn’t do it for you?”

“Lindsay Lohan heading to the slammer”

“Judge issued her 90 days. I watched her final statement, have to admit it was her best performance since Mean Girls.”

“Prince really hates the internet”

“He says, ‘The Internet’s completely over. I don’t see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won’t pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can’t get it. The Internet’s like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can’t be good for you.'”

“Rank Pixar’s movies”

“I’ve probably seen Monsters Inc. upwards of 60 times in the past few months. I’ve also watched Toy Story and The Incredibles at least 30 times each.”

“Universal encouraging phone use during Despicable Me”

“I don’t care if it’s only during the credits, i don’t care if it dims the screen and silents incoming calls- DO NOT encourage people to be noodling about on their god damned cells during a fucking movie!”

“Sell beer at the movies!!!!”

“Sure there are art house theaters that do this but I am talking about multiplexes people! Screw all the crappy candy! I want a fuckin beer when I am watching a film damn it!”

“The 2010 Emmy nominations”

“This is really the first year that I can remember where I actually agree with just about every nomination for a lot of the categories.”
