StreetTalk by Carol Rosen

There’ve been a lot of movies, including a number of blockbusters, which have opened this summer. Which movie did you like best and which was the worst?
(Asked at Jamba Juice at Capitol Expressway and Tully)

“I thought ‘World Trade Center’ was very good and very tastefully done. I didn’t think I could watch it without going to pieces, but it was a lovely story. I haven’t seen enough movies this summer to have a worst.”

Jan White, 53

Kindergarten teacher at Success Academy


“My favorite was ‘Pirates of the Caribbean; Dead Man’s Chest’ because it had good special effects and I liked the first one. I haven’t seen any bad movies this summer.”

Briar Burt, 12
Canby, Ore.
Seventh grader


“I didn’t like the ‘Da Vinci Code.’ It wasn’t that interesting and I fell asleep. “’Cars’ was good, it was cute. I have kids and we all liked it.”

Diane Costas, 21
Evergreen
Analyst


“I haven’t seen enough movies to make a judgment. I did see ‘Lady in the Water,’ it was okay, but I didn’t see any of the big ones.”

Caleb Offer, 24
San Jose
Bartender


“The worst movie I saw was ‘Lady in the Water.’ It was stupid. I took my daughter to see ‘Barnyard.’ It was cute.”

Connie Robledo, 28
Evergreen
Administrative assitant/clerk


“’Pirates of the Caribbean’ was the best movie I saw because Orlando Bloom is in it. I haven’t seen ‘Snakes on a Plane’ and I won’t see it."

Jita Patel, 23
Evergreen
Alaska Airlines


“’Barnyard’ was the cutest. I took my 12-year-old with me to see ‘Failure to Launch’ and it was not appropriate. It was not a family movie.”
