Well it's more like 12 minutes, it's not the opening scenes of the film, and it's kind of old news. But hey, I'm sure there are plenty of folks who don't even know there IS a front page!

It seems very interesting from the 12 or 10 mintue clip, hopefully the rest will live up to this clip.

I did a search on the forums and didn't find it... plus I only thought you put DVD News on the Front Page. Sorry...

LOL, originally I didn't know there were FORUMS for UD! Then Kram joined, so I did about a month later.

Looks alot like The Da Vinci Code, which comes out next year.

Any thoughts???

That's spoilerish, so I'm not going to watch it. I am very eager to see this film.

I'm watching it right now, and I'm REALLY liking what I'm seeing. November 19 can't come fast enough!

Plot

The Manson Order left a treasure some where in the USA. After hearing tales from his grandpa when he was younger, Now matured Ben Gates decides to go on the quest to find the National Treasure!

Video

Who ever told Jerry Bruckheimer to shot this movie in a boring 1.85:1? This movie would have benefited of the Cinemascope framing (2.35:1)

Movie

Who would of thought Disney making this movie and actually putting their name on it? When I saw the trailer for this movie I didn't have a desire to see it. Disney and action? Hmmm for some reason in this era of Eisnerism action is the last thing to expect from Walt Disney Pictures than just dozen cheapquels and B class animated features. Boy was I wrong about this movie..........when the movie started I was kinda like oh great a sanitary Disney film......It started slow and it had corny jokes to me but then the whole wheel turned and I got so into the movie. It's great! I think Disney's Third Golden Era will not be an animated one but more like live action one! DIsney and Bruckheimer second helping action movie is a total success! Who would ever thought that both together could bring the Disney action magic back to life? This movie definetly doesn't top Pirates but it's a pleaser and fun! I give it 4 stars out of 5

Highly Recommended!!!

Nice review, good to hear you liked it. I must say, though I was innitially not interested in seeing this film whatsoever, it has actually started to look good to me in the past few weeks. Perhaps its the marketing doing its trick on me, but I may actually see it in theaters.

I was surprised when i saw it! lol I didn't know Disney could make something like this anymore......

Just Myself · Post by **Just Myself** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 11:32 pm

Wow... I just... wow. This film is amazing.

JB really has outdone himself. I was surprised when I got to the megaplex: I was going to see the 9:15 show, and it was sold out!

So was the 9:30! So, I ended up being in the also crowded 10:00 show. I thought Riley was funny. As the credits rolled, 1/3 of the people started applauding. APPLAUDED. They liked it that much. This film is better than POTC.

P.S. To Paka: When this film does well, I have four words: I told you so.

MickeyMouseboy · Post by **MickeyMouseboy** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 11:43 pm

just a correction the film is 2.35:1! I guess i sat too close to the screen that it looked 1.85:1 even tho i was debating between the two.

Gee, that's so very mature and diplomatic of you, JM.

So, how's about we keep that "when" to an "if" still, eh? I wouldn't be surprised if NT had a good opening weekend, but will it have legs? Methinks it won't. Of course, now it looks like I'm retaliating your silly taunts... oy. Why do I bother? e_e

Anyway, I just got back from the movie and this could possibly be the best movie experience of the year so far, surpassing even The Incredibles and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Maybe Spongebob will change that!

we enjoyed the movie!

he loved it for its adventure and "Coolness" and i liked how they were able to mix in romance!

plus...who wouldn't like a movie involving maps & treasures!

it's a good movie...can't wait for the DVD release!

It's good. I hope to buy it at one point. My dad and I liked it anyway. My mom got bored during it.

umbreongirl · Post by **umbreongirl** » Mon Mar 21, 2005 1:35 pm

YES YES YES!!
I loved this movie!
It was great!
The actors (exept the blonde girl, I REALLY hated her....)
and just everything. I enjoyed this movie quite a bit and I'm sure that my family might enjoy it.
The comedy was, in my opinion, great. Adding comedy, action, romance (gawd, I hate romance) and, as I would call it, stradegy.
It reminded me a BIT like Zelda mixed with Lord of the Rings mashed into one.
Just great. This is probably my number 1 fav live action Disney movie, besides PotC.

I went with some of my family on Thanksgiving to see it. Every single one of us has a different taste in movies and genres and stuff like that, but amazingly we all agreed that the movie was good. Which is weird, because that never happens.

I'd recommend it.
