How can they just break into the queens private residence in Buckingham Palace and steal something from her desk like that? Dont they have security? How did that dude hack the castles security system from the bathroom stall? Did they have Wi Fi or something in there? Plus what I want to know is how can they have a shoot out right out side the palace and then get into a mayhem causing car chase through London and not having anything happen to them like getting arrested or something. I mean like in the next scene he is walking up to his front door back in the States like nothing happened. Also Im convinced now more than ever that it was Bill Gates that shot Lincoln.

It is called fiction. Learn to enjoy it. It is frequently more pleasant than reality.

Agreed, IJ4 sucked....although NC1 was better than 2.

I enjoyed it, I don't try to justify movies anymore, that makes them less enjoyable.

I actually thought it was pretty good too. First one was better, but the second one was still entertaining.

People go to movies because its fake.

Real life would make a really shitty movie.

As long as you remember it's HOLYWOOOOOOOD, it's a fun movie.

NT2 was as good as the first. What made it less entertaining is that it was simply more of the same.

Edit;

That and Ncholas Cage gave up acting after he did Peggy Sue Got Married.

I hope Kung Fu Panda is going to be good.

Change that to The Outsiders, and I'd agree.

How did they clone the dad's phone using "Clone DVD" - a DVD copying utility? It even said "Clone DVD" on the screen of the laptop with the status bar going across while the phone "was being cloned."

Let me guess... this wasn't a documentary, and it was in the script? They couldn't hire a CS student in his first year to mock up a Visual Basic form in 10 minutes with a better name, more realistic look, and cooler status bar?

NT2 was lame. It was cliche and starred Dickless Cage. He is a terrible actor and only has a career because his uncle is Francis Ford Coppola. Nick Coppola ("Cage") gets too many parts for his limited range, IMO. Oh yeah, he married the King's daughter and left her with a quickie divorce. Nobody messes with Lisa Marie.

This must be how they felt when "Temple of Doom" came out.

NT2 was FAR FAR better than Temple of Doom - and I saw both in the Theater and have them on DVD.

Screw it, Im sticking with the cartoon channel.

NT2 was only OK, not nearly as good as NT1 IMO. I thought it would have made a better movie if they had kept the confederate angle and gone hunting the lost confederate gold reserves. The whole El Dorado thing just did not fit, like they had one story, then decided half way through to just toss it, and tacked on another one.

It needed more space aliens and magnetic skulls.

I didn't enjoy NT2.

Infact, I don't think enjoy movies anymore. Just getting old.

Kung Fu Panda freaking ROCKED

Just watched it last night.

It's a shame that all the best movies now-a-days are cartoons, the next movie I'm looking forward to is the new Madagascar.

That being said, I did enjoy both the new NT and IJ, although neither were anywhere near as good as the first ones in the franchises.
