That Show Sucks is a Movie and TV Show blog sharing our opinion about the best and worst shows out there.
We offer reviews, movie trailers, TV show clips, and info on the box office and upcoming new movies. Be sure to check out our weekly poll, too. Enjoy!
The Blind Side, with half of the votes this week, has become thatshowsucks number 1 motivational sports film of all time. The movie is a heart-warming film showing how a young man’s life is forever changed when a family, mothered by Sandra Bullock, gives him not only a chance, but also a home.
For anyone who has not gone out and spent the money to see this film, shame on you. This movie gives even the biggest of sports haters a motivational kick in the pants. The music is wonderful and the acting is superb. The Blind Side makes every person want to be better and aid those in need of a helping hand.
I also found out this morning that The Blind Side has been nominated for best actress (Sandra Bullock) and Best Motion Picture for the upcoming Academy Awards.
We at thatshowsucks are proud to announce that The Blind Side holds the 1st place trophy for our favorite motivational sports movie.
So it’s almost the weekend and you might be wondering how you’re going to wind down and relax this weekend. Thatshowsucks.com is here to help you make some movie watching decisions to help your weekend be as enjoyable as possible. We have three categories of movie watchers (going to the theater group, redbox, and netflix) to make sure that no matter where you are you’ll have some great shows to watch.
Going to the Theater:
If you want to get out and actually spend money in our current economy here are the top two movies that everyone should see sooner or later (click title to see trailer).
Both of these Movies are incredible and if you’ve already seen them, well, go see them again.
Redbox:
If you are too lazy and don’t feel like going to the theater then here are our two suggestions for you to pick up at your local unnamed movie-disposal box that may or may not be the color red.
First Choice: Michael Jackson’s This Is It
Close Second: Angels & Demons
The Michael Jackson movie should be an interesting one if you haven’t taken the time to see it. Angels & Demons is a great show, which is easily ten times better than Da Vinci Code.
Netflix:
If you can’t even make it to a local rental place or redbox, but have streaming Netflix at home via computer or xbox, then here are a couple of winners for your night.
First Choice: Traitor
Close Second: Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (original version)
I personally got a little freaked out with Jonny Depp version of Willy Wonka, but the original is a good show. Traitor was a really interesting movie that makes you think a little bit, but be warned, it can be slow at some times.
Well we hope that you have a great weekend and that we’ve helped you decide what movies will make this weekend slightly less boring than usual.
Let us know in the comments section if you plan on or did watch any of these films. Also, any ideas for weekend movie/tv activities are welcome as well.

Yesterday Apple had a huge press release for their upcoming product, the iPad. The iPad honestly looks like an iPod Touch made for Andrea the Giant. The device has a 9.7 inch wide screen display and supports multi-touch interfacing by having well over a thousand sensors built in. The device can be bought with or without a 3g option, which allows for internet usage on the go. The device also supports “HD” video, which term is used in so many ways that it doesn’t mean much to me any more. Okay enough with the specs, now on to the movies.
The iPad is supposed to support up to ten hours of battery life, which is more than enough time to watch a video or two when you are on the go. The question comes to mind about when and where you would actually want to watch a movie on such a large portable device. If you are driving you are not allowed to watch a movie, that’s just stupid and it looks like airplanes are limiting the time that you can use electronic devices, which doesn’t give you enough time to watch an entire film. If you are ridding the subway you’re asking for a mugging. If your on a train then you’re probably in Europe and are most likely doing work on the way to the office. If you’re home then you should be watching movies on your nice big lcd tv with blueray, not just sitting there crouching behind some slightly smaller than a piece of paper device.
Now I think that if you’re a hard core ebook reader that you should get one, but for the movies I’m sticking to a bigger screen.
Maybe I’m way off base, but let us know what you think in the comments section.
