Haunted Mansion
« on: November 29, 2003, 12:22:23 AM »
I saw Disney's The Haunted Mansion today.  My suggestion: wait until it hits the dollar theater, and then you'll get your money's worth.

The thing is, it's only 70-80 minutes long and is very, very...mediocre.  Not too bad, but not too good, either.  A little bit of everything but not much of anything. (any other clever, pithy things I can put there? =)

The plot was pretty linear, the characters drab, and the special effects over-indulged.  *sigh*  And they did so well with Pirates, too.  Ah well.

yeah, the "don't panic yet!" "Now Panic!" joke in the commercial kinda made me think it woudl be that. That joke is in every other show made. Wish people would stop laughing at it so they'd stop writing it in.

Coming next fall-  Spinning Teacups: The Movie

Although I would laugh if they could make a movie that made my husband as dizzy as the ride....

Their best bet would be PIXARS "Mr Toads Wild Ride" or "The Wind in the Willows"

I agree with Jeffe, although fuzzy may have a point.

Good to know about HM, though I was saving my pennies to see LotR:RotK in the theatres anyway.
