I know I'm probably an geek arse buss kill for saying this, but am I the only that was annoyed by the fact that the acapella numbers had instruments backing the performances (at least a drum machine in the final number) in the first one?


That's what's funny about the whole "glee" phase that this movie spawned off from.


Also I would be pissed off as hell if I went to a try out and 99 percent of the people had to sing the same song and not to use props other than their voices, but then the last chick comes in and gets to do her own song and uses a cup to make a beat

If you're a fan, PP1 was wayyyy better.

2 was kind of a let down imo

I agree the first one was better. The second one had a lot of forced humor and everything was a sexual reference it seemed like

Are we still supposed to pretend that Anna Kendrick is super hot or has the truth come out?

Huh? I don't hear anyone saying she's "super hot." She's the cute girl-next-door type. I like her more on Twitter than in any movie I've seen her in (and I've seen a bunch). She's a bit of a foul-mouthed smart-arse. She tries to hint at a darker side, but I'm not sure if it's real or if she's just trying to expand beyond her Disney image.

I started to like her when she said that her high school classmates would agree with the people that don't think she's pretty.

I tempered my expectations for 2, and it was just about what I expected. It was never going to be anywhere near the first one. I enjoyed it. Definitely not as good as the first one, but it was a little better than I thought it would be.

This board was fricking obsessed with her whenever the first movie came out.

First one was awful when it was on tv the other week. No chance I watch this one.

now projected to own the weekend with $64 million

Universal’s tuneful sequel “Pitch Perfect 2? is far surpassing expectations with a projected $64 million weekend, putting more than $20 million ahead of “Mad Max: Fury Road,” which should end up at around $41 million.

The mighty combo finally toppled “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” which ruled the last two frames and should still see a solid $37 million this weekend.

Yeah, the family and I still enjoyed 2 but we did have higher expectations. Most sequels aren't as good as the 1st but I think we were expecting more.

We loved PP1 and I laugh every time my kids(girls) watch it again with friends.

The ending was underwhelming and a lot of the jokes failed. But it was still enjoyable.

Had to laugh, after seeing military people freak out about the Under Armour shirt, where is the outrage for this movie with the German team doing the pose.

Went and saw this one this morning and while it was not nearly as good overall as the first, it was still solid. There was more subtle humor in this one than the first even though they force a lot of humor in front of you, if you listen and watch what is behind them there is a lot in there.

I really laughed at some of the stuff said off screen in the background and i don't remember that in the first. Clay Matthews really had me laughing in the underground competition and Bumper in the same scene trying to convince people about John Mayer.

In the showing I went to, I would say 90% missed Bumper on the Voice. That part had me cracking up

She has a cute face and wore a nice push up bra in the first one, other than that she is very average
