Just seen it... horrible movie

Plot? This movie is based on a TRUE story. We all know true movies are not how they exactlly happened. But not sure how you make the true story Sandy Komito (Kenny Bostick) any more enetertaining? Thought movie was ok. Not great, but added obsession,freindship, fatherhood, relationships and alot great places!.....etc. Into a true story of a guy breaking the record over a year. Not sure how you write a better story for this guy? I like Jack Black sometimes (plays the same role alot, i get that) but he was good in this, narration wasnt the best. But he deffinatley played a different role then 90% of his movies and love O Wilson and S Martin was good also as straight guy too for once. Good too see them not craking dumb jokes all the time. Just not sure how you rip the plot on something that really happended. As far as a movie goes on BIRD WATCHING, how you expect a better plot, no idea. And did you say the family guy ringtone? That is a song from the 1970s "Bird is the Word". That song was used 30 years before that show even written, so like or not. Wouldnt bring up show that stole it for the 1000th time.

>That annoying ass family guy ringtone was way overused.

No kidding. The first time I heard it, I winced, because it was obvious that the filmmakers were trying to be funny, and failing very badly.

By the fifth time, it was clear they thought they were onto pure genius. And that's when I stopped watching this vile crapheap of a movie.

O rly? You "seen it"? And you "seen" Pick of Destiny?? Dumbass...

I respect that not everyone will like this movie. (I loved it). But to say it's horrible makes me think you haven't seen very many movies. It's all relative, right?

I'm sure Jack Black won't lose any sleep over you "starting to hate him again". But instead will be happy to know this movie probably earned him some more fans from a base not usually tapped by his talent.

you really haven't stated your case very well. "The plot was terrible" - what in heck does that mean? Its a story about a big year, not Citizen Cane. You get exactly what the title of the movie tells you you are going to get. And the plot wasn't really the point of the movie anyway. The point was to explore the birding culture or community, which it does pretty well.

I just wish sometimes when people trash a movie that they provide a few good reasons why they thought it was so bad. The ringtone thing was trivial. And it WAS a mainstream comedy, which (being mainstream) is why it wasn't all that funny. Steve Martin is totally mainstream. But again, the point was not to make a funny film. What humor there was arose naturally from the context, as birding and doing a big year can result in a lot of funny situations.

I thought the movie was far from perfect, but to just trash it without any real explanation is not justified. There was a lot there that was fresh and an awful lot of people enjoyed it.
