I know that "The Back Up Plan" has come to the movies in America. I hope it will be shown in the UK next month. It has got Jenifer Lopaz in it. It is about a lady that wants to get pregnant because he biological clock is ticking away. She gets artificial insemination and then finds out she is pregnant the day she meets the man of her dreams. It is a romantic comedy. I am so very much looking forward to seeing that amusing movie because I enjoyed watching its trailer. Do you look at the trailer before you go and watch a movie? Are you planning to go and watch a movie? If so which one? If not which movie did you last see?

Lately I've been watching a lot of kid movies with the boys. A lot of animated features. And that's how we find out of upcoming movies too! When we see the trailers while waiting for the main attraction. The last movie we watched was 'How to tame your dragon'. It was good for a children's movie. I already like Craig Ferguson so he came across funny in the movie.

Haha, I liked the Back Up Plan. But I was disappointed overall because movies are so expensive - like me and my friend paid $20 (together) to see this movie! And I don't know if I think that it was worth the money. But it was OK. I've seen SO many movies these past few months - Date Night, Back up Plan, Alice in Wonderland, Bounty Hunter, and a few others that I can't even remember. Wow. I'm a little burned out from movies. But, I hope it comes out soon so you can see it! And let us know what you think of it and if the actual movie lives up to it's trailer.

I had the opposite reaction. When I saw the trailer I knew this movie wasn't for me.I always watch a trailer of the films that are coming out.it is the best way for me to figure out i I want to see the film. I have found a film that I Want to see. It is The Losers. I loved the trailer. I hope to see it Friday.

Hi maxi. No, I'm not planning to go and watch a movie. Nor do I look at the trailer before I see one. The last movie I saw in a theater was Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. The most I did was see the commercial for it and thought that my oldest would enjoy it and he did. Happy mylotting!

Often it is the trailer that attracts me to a movie, but certain ones, ie Star Trek, James Bond, etc. I will go to no matter what the trailer looks like and no matter what the critics say.

I have heard a lot about Avatar. i am not much of a good cinema goer. i love watching films but I don't do that frequently since I prefer to watch them on DVDs at the luxury of my home. I have in mind to go and visit this movie with my own son. I hope that its a good film. Usually I rely on the feedback received by my friends at work. They are a good source of information.

In fact the "Back Up Plan" is also on show in theaters next week in my city. I expect it to be in for a great laugh and not so concerned about its story. In the same week the blockbuster "Iron Man 2" will launch on screen in the theaters and I expect everyone will flock to watch this much awaited movie. But for some quieter moments with loved ones, one might like to go for a cosy comedy and have a great laugh together. If I have time for both, I would certainly love to watch two different movies.

Yes I like to watch the trailer before I see the movie. Sometimes I will read the book before the movie is released. The twilight series is one of them and I just read the lovely bones. Then I watched the movies to see what they change and what they left out. Sometimes the book is better and sometimes they aren't. For instances, I read the Harry Potter books then I watched the movies, so far the movies are better than the books. Yet, with the Lovely Bones I like the book better than the movie. So watching the trailer helps to determine whether or not I want to see the movie at all.

i just watched "shutter island" last night. it's a psychological thriller. the plot is good and there are twists; it messed with my mind. i think it was a good movie altho i would not recommend it if you want to relax and feel good.

Hi max, I havent been to the movies for about eighteen months. In Thailand I used to download movies, and watch them at home. Here, in Australia, I don't have that facility. However, I can't stand the loudnes of the speakers in the cinema, so I don't go.

Hey maxi! I did see the trailer for this movie and it looks really funny! It has gotten some pretty good reviews! I don't think it is out yet in the theatres here yet, but I do want to see it too! But, I will probably wait until it comes out on DVD! It goes to the theatres for a few months and goes to DVD so fast that I can wait to see it! I do like Jennifer Lopez and am glad to see that she has done a movie after so long!

Hi, honestly the hollywood movies are not available here in theatres except james bond, harry potter and oscar awardees. So, u miss the latest movies of hollywood. Perhaps, u r aware about shahrukh khan, if u , then 'my name is khan' is the last movie that i have seen. Yes, i tend to watch trailers before going to a theatre. Have a nice day.

yes,maximax!back up plan sounds really interesting, romantic comedy films lightens up the feelings of the audiences. just by reading your sights on the movie makes me want to watch it also. well,how can you handle the situation like that, seems like you really want to get pregnant but your dream guy came too late... it sure will be a very fun movie. sometimes watching the trailer first before planning to watch the whole film is interesting. you will know from trailer which film excites you and you will feel the need to watch it if the trailer is really good. as i've experienced before,sometimes i do love trailers makes me feel like watching the whole film.but there were trailers that meant to be so good,then when i watched the whole film,i feel like dismayed.i don't know,maybe i expected too much of the movie.in turn,i just watch movie which i really enjoyed to forget the other one. when was the last time i watched a movie? if your referring to the mall where big cinema to watch,i can say that was soOOoO long time ago.it seems like movies nowadays become so expensive that i can't afford it.i prefer most of watching movies here at my own place/house.where i watch with my family while having snacks and we can sit the way we want to.and buying the tape/dvd of the movie seems like worth it.cause you can watch it everytime you want.not like in cinema,where you can only watch one time only. i remember my last time to watch in cinemas,with my friends.i'm always watching for free.because my bestfriends always treat me to watch movies.it's like bonding times,but expensive way for them.well,i'm really shy on this.i don't want them to be used to this idea,that everytime we hang out,they always treat me.that's why sometimes i just don't like hanging out the mall.there's a lot of tempting things. better to watch movie at your comfortable home,while enjoying your home made snacks that is not too expensive.be practical! hope to watch the back up plan!
