I saw it and I HATED it with a passion. Ugh. Such a waste of time. I really thought the first one was funny, but this one was so ridiculous, and far too much like the other one, and not in a good way. Could they have not recycled all the same jokes? And why the ridiculous plot with the prison and drugs? That was hard to take. Also, I might have actually believed that chick was a lesbian, had it been in the context of a movie that didn't suck in a big way. I think it was one of the worst movies I've seen in awhile, save for that God-awful TV movie I saw on the Disney channel the other night, Pixel Perfect. You see I'm not holding back.

I'm really looking forward to Phantom, too. I love that musical, and they better not ruin it! That's probably hard to do, though.

I'm also looking forward to Lemony Snicket. I have to admit that I haven't read the books, though. I've just heard all about them and I figure the movie will be entertaining.
