Haha I love Trailer Park Boys! I never saw the American version of the inbetweeners though. I'll have to check it out. The second movie was just released on Netflix. I actually thought it was better than the first. It had me in stitches.

Great to know, I'll check out the sequel this weekend.

Once you see the original Inbetweeners, there really isn't much reason to watch the American version. It's not close to being as good.

Watch The Inbetweeners 2 sequel last night, and it was better.

I can't remember laughing harder in the last 3 years than I did during that water slide scene. I really thought my wife was going to have a heart attack due to laughter.

Spoiler:

 
If you are at all interested in either medical dramas and/or Ben Carson you should check out the movie Gifted Hands: the Ben Carson story. I wasn't really in the mood to watch it but my wife wanted to. Holy cow was I blown away! I didn't realize the notoriety Carson had in the medical world. He was regarded as the best pediatric surgeon in the WORLD and did some pretty crazy things no surgeon had ever done. If you aren't a conservative just forget about the upcoming election and watch it. Cuban gooding junior does a great job. Carsons story is incredible.
 
Read the book the Martian and couldn't wait to see the movie. Like Hollywood always does, they took an incredible book and butchered the story. I expected that to some degree but I felt that they did a worse job following the book than most movies based on novels do. They left out huge events, completely changed other major events, left out 90% of the humor from the book, rushed through the entire story, and failed to explain tons of what was actually going on in the movie so the viewer had to make lots of assumptions. My wife and brother in law didn't read the book and thought the movie was entertaining. If you read the book don't go see the movie. It's a disappointment. If you didn't read the book rent the movie on red box or Netflix when it comes out. Don't waste your money to see it in theaters.

Movie was @ 2h 25m and you're complaining about stuff getting cut?

Every movie deters from the original books in some way or how. It's the nature of the beast, if you don't like it than never go see a movie hat you've read the book first.

It's a tiring conversation point that no one cares that you read a book.
