MegaMind movie - SUCKED

I saw MegaMind in 3D at a movie theater.  I wasn't expecting greatness, but I was hoping that something in it would be cool or neat or fun or something.
NOPE.
It was expensive @ $13 for a 3D film which didn't really use the 3D to do anything cool.  Disappointing.  I may not be the 'target audience' at 39 almost 40, but I saw MegaMind in a room full of kids. I laughed only 2x during the movie, the kids mostly laughed once. Behind me, a kid was so bored he got the foot tapping syndrome (right in my ear).  Kids would hate this multimillion dollar film.  I was wondering what audience was the target for this dud?
This film did not work in almost every way that Incredibles did work: No good action scenes, no exciting plot development, only a sad 'turn around' making the villain a hero -- which not only was not convincing but was trite and un-fun.
Pixar I've heard goes thru a huge amount of work to get the story first.  This film had a flawed story, namely that a villain turned hero is not that exciting, and a loser turned loser villain is not very exciting, and the hero abdicating to live a secret life 'free of responsibility' is similarly not exciting.
Which seems to explain why MegaMind 3D was completely not exciting.

cigarettes & infomercials

Someone left a pack of cigs at work.  I found it at 5:30am & I was smoking 2 cig's in a row outside the night job at 5:45am.  Wow, that was an amazing experience of addiction.  Well, I guess I'm back to kicking cigarettes again?

Also Armando Montelongo infomercial is on the air ~ 10x a day for awhile.  I read the reviews.  OUCH, it's a NASTY scam -- a 3 day seminar for people who are desperate to make money will cost $3k, and you can pay $25k for a drive around with Armando (if he shows up, apparently he doesn't attend all his seminars) to learn his 'system' which is basically buying homes on a credit card, borrowing money from a rich friend/acquaintance, or getting a loan (which most folks can't get right now b/c of economy).
Almost all of his suggestions are for Texas real estate market, but apparently can work in Florida.  In Arizona & California, many of the ideas pitched are illegal for these states (according to realtors who attended his workshop).
So, as my girlfriend says, don't believe the infomercials.
Another example of an apparent scam artist / nasty businessman who is attempting to exploit & steal from as many as possible before he gets busted & goes to jail for fraud.

That said, I'm still psyched on P90X workout DVD's and think that program isn't so bad.  Actually, there's a reasonable percentage of infomercials that 'aren't so bad' if you buy the stuff.  But so far, the only thing I've found that isn't widely disputed or hated is the P90X. 

I'm still googling any infomercial that I watch here.
