>>>"Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter" is based on a book of the same name. Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but my husband enjoyed the book.

>>>"Cowboys and Aliens" was actually a fun movie, assuming you went into it with no preconceptions.

>>That's a high requirement. I tried, for a brief moment, to pretend that I never saw a cowboy movie or that branch of SF flick where they have rubber stuff over their faces.

>(shrug) I don't think you need to go that far but, as an example, when the latest Godzilla came out people were screaming "That's not Godzilla" because it wasn't a guy in a rubber suit. My husband and I went to see a movie about an irradiated lizard that grew to huge size and tore the living crap out of Manhattan, and that's exactly the movie we saw.

>We often will rent movies on the 'how bad can it be?' scale (based on critics). Only two, "Inspector Gadget" and the second "Zorro" have been truly that bad.

>There again, there have been many movies that the critics hated yet the public has liked. Almost to a man, critics panned "John Carter", yet almost every person who went see the movie and wrote on-line about it had almost the same thing to say: "We don't know what movie the critics saw, but it wasn't the one we saw".
My dad took my daughters to "Inspector Gadget" one year when they went to Maine a few days ahead of my wife and me. "You owe me," he said.
I had to look up "John Carter." From the trailer it does not look like my cup of tea but I won't diss it without having seen it.
