Same for me, except I don't tend to make excuses if they aren't true. But if you're interested in the entertainment industry, here's a response I have that always works, if the person is of the mind for anything to work at all. I discovered in the course of my writing that what goes into my head tends to come out of my head in what I say, do, and write (and not just fanfiction either). Since my main interest is in books for children and youth (like famous authors C.S. Lewis and Bryan Davis, to name only two), it onl;y makes sense to bone up on material for those age groups. Besides, why read a bunch of hacks who can't last two minutes without gore or other cheap stuff?


Yeah, you never know. Personally I'm not a fan of some of the sequels, but they did get rather inventive in The Stone of Cold Fire (since you haven't seen it, I won't give away the ending), and The Great Longneck Migration... well, who cares what people say? It got me.

Actually i have seen it. I have all the movies, or at least up to The Great Longneck Migration. And i agree that they certainly have creativity for plots and characters...or at least it seems that way through Invasion of the Tinysauruses, but i haven't seen it or past so i can't say for certain. now that there's no risk of spoilers, what did you want to say?

Well, it is possible to get the DVD without going into the store and having to pay a cashier (a wonderful device known simply as the "Redbox"! XDD It's where I rented the movie from before I bought it. You simply keep it for more than two weeks, and you've basically bought it! ^^ Although... I don't know if that version has the deleted scenes).

And I agree... that deleted scene was a good idea, but thinking about the context of the movie, that probably wouldn't have fit as well. Besides, it would've made it a lot more saddening than I think it needed to be.

The soundtrack rocks, though! ^^ I bought that off iTunes as well! (I even made a topic about it in the Music section!)

As to the plushie... well, I can't help you there. I wanted one myself... but I feel the same way you do about going into Toys R Us... XD I wouldn't know where else to get one.

I do like some of these sorts of movies... well, just so long as they don't cheeseball it up too much (which seems to be the case in kids movies I thought I'd like, but didn't, but I've found that Disney, recently, is starting to make movies that both children and their parents will enjoy. You know, movies like Bolt and Finding Nemo) I do like high-action movies, like Lord of the Rings, (just so long as they don't do any gore or excessive blood) so that's part of the reason why I was drawn to it. Very impressed at how they were able to do the kind of action exhibited in the beginning of Bolt while still keeping it to a PG level!


Gah, I'm rambling, so I'll stop now. X]

Well, buying Bolt at a store wasn't nerve-wrecking since it is more of a family movie and a little more recent. It's just times where I want to go buy, lets say, All Dogs Go To Heaven 2, since it's a little more out of the blue I guess. I always wind getting the thing I came for and I think I've only had one person ask me before what I was doing buying this movie, but I still feel this way sometimes, XP.

You're right with the deleted scene though. I still wish there was an alternate option to watch the movie with the deleted scenes added and fully in 3D though, <3. Probably wouldn't make much sense or make it flow weird like you said, but it'd still be fun probably.

You made a topic on the soundtrack though, =O!? I can't believe I haven't checked that out yet, ^^. I ordered mine from online through the record store I work at since I like looking at the album book as I listen to it, but the music is amazing nonetheless. I'm getting to the point where I think I listen to the whole thing everyday, XD. I'm getting pretty good at sounding like Travolta too when he sings in "I Thought I Lost You", =P.

Don't worry about rambling though, I enjoy having a good discussion on this stuff, =D. I think you bunch are the only people that I'd find that are interested in talking about Bolt maturely anyways, =3.

Huh, I must have confused your statements with someone else's. In that case, you know what I mean about them having an... unusual ending. But I digress, we were talking about Bolt.
Honestly, I think it's lame to let the crowd intimidate you, especially into the realm of watching films more "grown-up" then you prefer. I for one take suggestions from friends, but if I feel like I'm only going to get nausea out of a movie then no amount of peer pressure's going to make me watch it. There are some movies which are a bit young for me, and some call themselves too "mature." Me, I'm not going to buy into that. I watch 24 (PG-14) on a regular basis, and I could be persuaded all the way up to R for the right movie. But I'm not going to let a few taunts of "Oh, what a little preschooler" push me around, and I don't think anybody should.

Well, it's really never been as extreme as you were making it, for me anyways. It's just been more of a self-thought thing I guess. I've honestly been a lot better at just going and buying something like this without these thoughts, but I guess I still have my awkward times. I've never had anyone start calling me names or push me around like you say though. I'm pretty sure if that actually broke out, I'd stand up for myself since the offender must really have a lot of time on his/her hands to push me around over something so pointless. It's just I feel awkward going into a store and buying movies aimed at children sometimes. It's mainly just a quick feeling anyways, like I'll think about it maybe a few steps away from the register or maybe a few seconds in the kid's movie section of the store.

This is starting to become a different subject though, I should probably stick to just Bolt, ^^.

Hmm, I never had the chance to go see this in 3D, and from what I've heard, it's pretty amazing too, ^_^. I was kind of wondering, does anyone know a way or place I could go watch it still in 3D? The standard version blew my mind, so I can't imagine how good it must be in 3D, =3.

They'll probably release a special DVD, just like they did with Spy Kids 3-D.

I’ve never been called names. people here just don't seem to care. My friends are cool with it too, maybe it's because I watch higher rating movies as well. Like I love violent and gory werewolf and vampire movies. And I watch many shows that aren’t really for kids; like CSI: Miami and NY, Criminal Minds, Buffy, and Angel.

But you and Blur are right, we’re getting way off topic ^^
To be honest, I don’t know why I posted in here in the first place, cause I haven’t even seen Bolt. But I sure would love too. Debating whither or not to ask for the DVD or the CD I really want for a graduation gift

Let me offer my trademark advice: Get it at the library if possible and let that be your guide on whether to get themovie to own.

i think i'll love it enough it get it straight on, (especially if not bought with my money ) but it's good advice never-the-less.
i've seen movies in theatres and thought 'thank goodness i didn't waste $10 more on the DVD

Funny. I usually think of the theater as the bigger waste of money, since you get less for your buck. But you make a good point.

I just watched it, and I love it.

Watcy of it.hed it a few times already. i have my own DVD copy of it. good movie. it is completly rendered animation though. its the way disney will do most of there movies now.

WahHAHA! May be a bit late, but I finally got Bolt on DVD!!! And loved every second!

I love Bolt, but I still have not yet seen the movie or bought it. I've been waiting so my sister and I could go shopping and pick it up: something we have been planning, post-poning, canceling, and re-planning since January.
