Took the kids to see Zathura this weekend and they enjoyed the movie a lot. I thought it was just ok. I'm glad to see Saw II's made over $70 million. I'm still disappointed in Zorro.

I saw Zathura this weekend and enjoyed it quite a bit. I think it really is the sort of movie that a lot of kids could relate to. As an adult, I liked the visuals quite a bit, and it was nice to see some good old fashioned Stan Winston creatures roaming about instead of all-CGI for a change. I also just loved the look of the 1930s tin litho game board - as an admirer of the tin toys of that era, I really wish such a game actually existed!

I have to echo Wessmith on Zorro... disappointed... I was looking for more of the edgy fun they had in the first film... this one seem more bickering and less fun.

I still haven't seen Zorro but my mother told me she loved it, so I guess they are going for the 50 and up demo. Her enjoying it makes me want to miss it entirely. I liked the 1st one, but I think they waited too long for a sequel. I hate the fact that Get Rich or Die Tryin even made it into the top 10, but I'm not surprised. We`ll see how it does next week. I`m just glad it wasn't number 1. I know 50's life story. I don't need to see it on the big screen or in a video game. I got it. You were shot 9 times and survived. Get over it.

I really wanted to come out of the theater (for Zorro) and say... WOW that was just as good or better then the first one... just couldn't do it.

Also, just seeing the title of "Zathura" kept making me think of Zathrus from B5... I kept thinking, "Zathras say don't play game... but, no one listen to poor Zathras."

How can I possibly take "Zathura" seriously... I can't... I would probably sit in the theater with Zathras running through my head and laughing inappropriately at various times.
