That is a great film. I saw it years ago but just watched it again and it is still good. Very tongue in cheek but also has a philosophy to it and some good characters and acting.

Anyone like it?

I thought there would be at least one person who likes this film. I feel so alone in my enjoyment of it. :)

I think I'll give it a try, it has Jon Stewart right?

Yeah Jon Stewart is in it. Usher is in it too.

I liked it a lot, and made a reference at work the other day. Only one other person got it. You're not alone, we're just scarce.

I really liked this movie. I bought it randomly one night when I was drunk, along with Decoys and some other movie I still haven't watched.
I haven't watched it in years, partly because I was hoping to forget the twist..... but no.
Still, excellent movie.
And it reminded me of Animorphs.

So glad other people like it. I think it is quite unique in its humor and doesn't take itself seriously.

Now I own a copy I will be watching it regularly.

See the black guy? He's in it for like... 2 scenes. Or has some really small amount of screen time, anywy. I guarantee that if he was white, he wouldn't be on the cover. He has nothing to do with anything. I think it's racist to put a black person in a movie just so you have a black person in the movie, in order to not appear racist. But how is that not racist?
And putting this guy on the cover, literally just because he's black, is even more racist.

The black is Usher, the RnB star. He is probably on the cover for that.

Ahh, fair enough. I just didn't recognize him because I pay absolutely no attention to him since I don't like his songs. And thanks for clearing that up :)

I thought the Faculty was a pretty good sci-fi alien movie.
