Pacino Joins THIRTEEN

So, someone would have to explain to me because I only had enough tolerance for one movie. Do they keep adding people to the crew for every sequel? And oh yeah, why do we need another Ocean's movie.

And why would Pacino choose to do this? Why not a sequel to Dog Day Afternoon or the Godfather. His characters all died, but at least it would make more sense than him being in this. Here is where someone steps in and tells me how good the Oceans movies really are and how they transcend the genre etc......

Yikes, I guess he has to pay for those twins that he had with Belverly d'angelo somehow. But still, Al Pacino is a great actor, I am surprised that he Choose a sequel.

teabagging2000 - way to spoil the end of two movies! A spoil alert would be nice. I bet you're the jerk who anonymously called me and told me the boat sinks at the end before I went to see Titantic. But on the real, I'm kind of looking forward to it. They really don't need a sequel and they are only batting .500 but if done right it could be good. They didn't need a third Indiana Jones much less a forth but the third turned out great and everyone is pushing for the forth. So, hopefully it'll be good. I mean Pacino has a knack for picking good movies like Gigli...er...and my arguement goes out the window.

Pacino's great in whatever he does. I probably haven't seen all his movies, but I don't believe I've ever seen him "phone in" his part. Oceans 11 was a pretty good remake. SPOILER The twist wasn't nearly as funny or as unexpected as the original's. Speaking of "phoning in," I felt the actors in Ocean's 12 seemed bored. Maybe getting the characters back in Vegas will make for a better movie that Oceans 12. So, no Julia Roberts or Zeta-Jones-Douglas in this one, not even in a cameo. That's cool, but let's not make Ellen Barkin an aging sexpot in this movie, a la Sharon Stone. Wonder how she got the part? Oh wait, her husband is a billionaire.

Yes, because George Clooney needs more money. It makes him feel good after he makes himself look like an idiot by speaking out about political issues.

The boat sinks at the end of Titanic?! Crap, guess I can take that off my netflix list! I also heard this nasty rumor that Darth Vader was Luke's father, but I don't believe it. Thanks a lot Maineyac!!

''Yes, because George Clooney needs more money. It makes him feel good after he makes himself look like an idiot by speaking out about political issues''

What the heck does this means???

I though G.C was just an actor so obviously he would get paid for what he does so, of course he needs more money, we all do. And he is a very smart man so, I don't quite catch this statement about him being an idiot......oh wait, I guess since he spoke against Bush ''apparently'' that makes him an idiot........yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh riiiiiiiiiight.

I don't know about the whole Clooney thing (although, he has a penchant for speaking his mind in an intelligent manner), but I'm certainly on board for 13 with Al Pacino. Nice to see they're back to the classic casino heist. Ocean's 12 was just too involved and out of character.

...and back to the movie. Thank God for no Zeta-various attachments and Julia Roberts. I know I'm not alone when I say that I could only take so much of that half-hour 'Julia Roberts' joke in Ocean's Twelve. I knew it was coming and I cringed my way through most of it.

P.S.- O12 was a decent movie but it's just that the huge heist scene we were being prepped for was one of the crappiest ever filmed.

* At least the french thief did his job right.
