1. Yeah sure, there's a few "A" list people in there
But the movie is going to sink without Adam Sandler in it. He could have done both his characters and played a dual role.

3. LOL
I watched "Click" last weekend. It was okay until it just wouldn't end and then they got crazy with the make-up.

18. Don't you think
that the movie would have been enhanced by one of Sandler's poignant songs just at the moment of assassination? I mean, it was in a kitchen, so maybe "Lunch Lady Land?"

9. Virginia Fallon
Emilio plays her husband.

I googled her character's name but nothing came up. This is a new development in association with Demi Moore. :evilgrin:

17. That was my understanding as well
This movie doesn't focus on Bobby Kennedy, but rather the impact he had on peoples' lives.

8. The inclusion of Lindsay Lohan and Nick Cannon ruin any potential for greatness
they represent the most antithetical values you could possibly get out of "actors" to what RFK meant to the youth by virtue of their marriage to MTV and representation of it's worst effect on society.

I can't tell you how much I wish for a movie like this to be done right but Emelio made a very signifigant mistake in the inclusion of those 2.

21. Aw, now you have ruined it for me!
:P


My aunt actually thought she was going to see "Bobby" because it was listed that way in the paper. So she bought her tickets and then realized when the movie came on that it was Ricky Bobby: Talladega Nights!! :rofl:

24. Saw it at a Screening. Very sad, yet, wonderful. If you lived in the time of Bobby


and campaigned for him,it is extremely poignant. He was my Last Political Hero.
