Or you can go with "Well, Luke owns the Full House box set".

'Cause I do.

I know, I just thought it was funny that Netflix put the full title like that.

Query: at what point are we allowed to stop watching?

I think TP'SMBHF is a 90 minute movie, maybe a bit more. I'd watch it through the credits as the outtakes are always hilarious.

But if I have to shut it off at any point in utter disgust, is my opinion on Tyler Perry invalidated? (Not meant to be a slight against Tyler Perry; I don't as a general rule have much patience for media that I don't enjoy) In other words, and in a more general sense, how long do you think an individual needs to sit through a movie to have "watched" it?

Well, if you only watch the first ten minutes of Bambi, it really sucks. A wildfire strikes, a doe's Mother gets shot in the head and the doe is left alone to starve. If you watch with the outlook of "This is going to be really silly" I think you'll watch the entire movie. You go in knowing that it is a man dressed up like a woman, and the movie isn't trying to make you think otherwise. That's part of the fun. It's not trying to be something it's not, Madea is meant to look like a man dressed like a woman and not some shitty Mrs. Doubtfire.

I promise it has its moments.

It's on Watch Instantly. Let me know when you're watching this, Stark, because I'm ready to rake it over a bed of coals. Also, "Tyler Perry's Madea's Big Happy Family".
Hmm...looks at calendar...probably gonna be a week or so...thinking Friday the 13th.

Predictions:

You'll watch the opening animation and think "What the hell?".

Followed by a few minutes of more "Again, what the hell?", followed by "okay, now that was funny".

Sounds good to me. I have a couple movies on the backburner I need to knock out first anyways.

Amazing Spiderman. Loved it. Never watching the old ones again (not that I ever really did).

Emma Stone is very hot.

It was good and stuff. Lizard was amazing, not sure why so many of my friends were uninterested in him and stuff.
