| 33498 | Grease 2 | When I went to this one college they used to keep one of the tvs locked on either MTV or VH1 this was back in 2002 or 2003 and it seemed like every time I went to the student union the movie would be on one of those channels if it was not music videos. <br> | pikachulover | Jan 30, 2017 | |

They wanted something darker and more mature. Trying to market it solely to kids and the "family friendly" crowd is ridiculous. Go back to a TV-14 rating. Kids will watch it regardless of the rating and you'll also start to see new demographics coming back to it. | Rick Ace Rhodes | Jan 30, 2017 | |

| 33493 | Last video game you played | uncharted 4, i'm just about finished with it. | Benjanime | Jan 30, 2017 | |
| 33492 | Last video game you played | Fallout 4. I think this is much improved over 3 (never played New Vegas). However, they seriously need to switch to a different game engine next time around. Also, stop allowing characters to carry more weight then they are allowed! | Rick Ace Rhodes | Jan 30, 2017 | |

Ron took the role of "Hellboy" and made the character his own. I can't imagine any other actor in that role. </div> | eddstarr | Jan 30, 2017 | |

Look close and you can see elements of many later films, inspired by Disney. I see bits of "Star Wars" on many scenes.
