I haven't yet... I plan on watching it in the next few days. though. It looks pretty cool/amusing. \:D/ Seth Rogan's voice alone cracks me up. :(

Is the 3D aspect of it cool? Because I'm only going to watch it in... 2D. :(

The theatre I went to didn't offer it in 3D - not that I would've gone to see it in 3D for my first viewing, anyway.

I haven't seen it yet. I'll probably buy it when it comes out on DVD.

Aliens die. :(

I think it's pretty hard to watch any movie that doesn't have some degree of "immorality." But if you want a complete rundown of the "questionable" aspects of the movie, check out Plugged In's review.

It's been my experience that Plugged In makes things sound a lot worse then they are in the actual film... but I haven't seen it yet so I can't say for sure in this case! \:D/

Ah, the age old debate about movie standards. How fun. ;) Plugged In takes a much more conservative approach to appeal to those families with higher standards - and there's nothing wrong with that. It's up to the discretion of the viewer (or the parents) to determine whether or not the movie is appropriate to watch. I don't know if I'd take a eight or nine-year old to see this one, but I think anyone who's old enough to be on this message board would enjoy and appreciate it. ;)

Plugged In is still a good reference point to determine if the movie is 'worth' seeing or leaving alone. Although they sometimes take things oddly, I still prefer to go there and "preview" what the movie might contain (usually so I can argue against watching whatever Top is wanting to see :noway: ).

Back on topic: I would really like to see Aliens vs. Monsters. \:D/ I'll probably wait 'til it comes out on dvd, though. I've liked the previews I've seen thus far.
