Great movies

[Trukrswyfe]

dont have to be trucker movies.

The last one I went to with my husband was Borne Ultimatium. It was awesome, and so intense that my palms where sweating. I love the action. Then before that I took the boys to Transformers. So so cool, Im totaly buying it Oct16. It was way intense too I wanted to run right out and sign my boys up from the military " Lets rock n roll". Michael Bay does great job with action.

List your movie and review or comments. Take turns, no don't have to all post at the same time now. Take it easy there is plenty of room for everyone. I m just playin Im not that crazy just wishing it was more crowded in here :lol:

[shyykatt]

There are 2 threads on 'movies' over in 'anything & every.." :wink:

[Trukrswyfe]

Oh hey thanks Shy,

I saw those two but thought they were only for trucker movies. I didn't want to add Transformers to a list of adult men movies. Or Becoming Jane , No I haven't seen that on yet. My husband said he would take me but I was afraid his snorring would get on other movie goers nerves. :lol:

[Trukrswyfe]

I want to see that chic flick movie PS I Love You. Hope it is good, I hear that In the Land of Women is good.

[Roadhog]

My favorite movies are the comedies ...no surprise...huh. :lol:

I rarely go to the Cinema, and usually wait for the films to come out in DVD.

My most recent was "Wild Hogs."
with Travolta, Allen, Lawerance, Macy, Liotta,
and HOT cha cha ooo La La hubba hubba Marisa Tomei... :shock: http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l236/Leland10/nocontrol.gif


Being a hog and a biker myself...it was close to my heart.
I give it a full 5 light bulbs.

Loved that movie and I mentioned it first on this thread.

" If we wanted piss we would drink it cold" so many funny lines I only remember this one and the one about the trucker clogging the toilet.

You should really watch Transformers awesome movie.

Oh yeah one all time fav October Sky.

[Jackrabbit379]

I give it a full 5 light bulbs. :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That was a good one. I liked that one dude, the computer geek. His Apple tatoo. :lol:
And Peter Fonda coming in to the movie. That was awesome. 8)

4 1/2 bulbs would be...

[Jackrabbit379]

Ohhkayy :lol:

Man. :lol:

[Trukrswyfe]

William H Macy is a very funny guy especially in this movie.

I love those Christmas movies that are coming out right now. Jingle All the Way, Home Alone,

As far as chick flick Little Woman is a fav, I have five sisters so I can relate.

[Roadhog]

I haven't seen "Ratatouille" yet, but have a feeling I'll like it. I've always loved Pixar films. Haven't seen "The Simpson Movie", "Shrek The Third",
"Pirates of the Carribean: At Worlds End" and "Spiderman 3" , which I am anxious to see.

My local Library (easy 1/2 mile walk from my house) gets these movies around 6 months or so, after they are released to DVD. I can rent them for $1 and keep them 4 days. That's usually how I get the movies I want to see. I am like a year behind everyone else...:lol:

The Simpsons Movie was alright. For a $1 I'd rent it but wouldn't waste the money to see it in a theater.

Pirates on the other hand is great that was the first movie I've seen in awhile that was really intertaning.

Ratatouille acording to my sister isn't all that funny.

[Trukrswyfe]

Pirates is hot, One you love and One you hate that you love. Good Good Good,

Shrek the Third is funny. We rent from the red box only a dollar a day.

We Were Soldiers is High Octane, So is Borne, Jason Borne,

Just watched Hot Rod Stupid, I hate really stupid humor.

[Roadhog]

This trailer of Ratatouille had me laughing my butt off! hehehe heeeeeeeeeeee!

"I don't wanna eat garbage DAD!!!!
...what is that???
I don't really know...

Yep I like We Were Soldiers also Black Hawk Down is really good and I sorta like Saving Private Ryan.

Ratatouille was good. I liked it. Seemed different than the other Pixar films, but it was good.

The new Pirates is also good. Surely, they will make another one. They have to! :D

[Jackrabbit379]

I will give :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: to the movie, No Country for Old Men. My wife, and I watched it tonight. We just got home.
Tommy Lee Jones plays a sheriff of a west Texas town. He is so funny, and the movie is very exciting. Keeps ya on the edge of your seat, but....the end sucks! Everyone in the theater was like, what?!? :shock:
Very good movie, but at the end, no point. :lol:

[Trukrswyfe]

Watch In the Land of Women funny it reminded me of someone, hmmm, someone from Michigan..... I wonder who

The guy is single and writes sleezy smut on the internet. And has very interesting relationships with females. Huh. Wasn't really all that great but funny coincidences. :idea: :idea: :idea:


Then watched Bourne Ultimatium Loved it :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Yeah, what she said. :lol:
My wife, and I just watched it. I liked it, but it seemed drawn out.

[Fredog]

Ratatouille was good. I liked it. Seemed different than the other Pixar films, but it was good.

The new Pirates is also good. Surely, they will make another one. They have to! :D


it was pretty good, but chicken run was better

[mommee]

Ratatouille made me hungry as I was watching it. I wanted to go eat at some fine restaurant and have a gourmet meal. :lol: :lol:

I enjoyed "American Dreamz". A farce on the American Idol show.

[shyykatt]

Recently watched "Shooter"; that was pretty good.

[Twilight Flyer]

All three of the Lord of the Rings movies = :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

That constituted one of my greatest movie watching experiences. We scored tickets to the back to back to back pre-release showing of the third one. So we got to watch the extended version of the 1st one, the extended version of the 2nd one, and then the first showing of the 3rd one, all in the same day and night at a brand-new stadium-seating theatre. :) Talk about epic! :shock: :shock:

On that note, Peter Jackson was signed a couple of weeks ago to direct the Hobbit in not one, but TWO movies. WHOO HOOO! Can't wait for that!

Other movies I would consider excellent, easily :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: movies:

Groundhog Day (one of my favorites)

Scrooged

Die Hard

Any of the Star Wars movies (we're big fans)

Independence Day

The Matrix (first one only...the others weren't anywhere near as good)

Mr. Holland's Opus (the one movie guaranteed to make me cry, no matter how many times I've see it, and it's been quite a few.)

Pirates of the Carribean...I loved all three of them.

There are certainly others, too. We are going to see I Am Legend tonight...I have no doubt I'll be ranking that up there with my favorites, too.

[RebelDarlin]

Geez TF you stole almost my whole list!!

All three of the Lord of the Rings movies = :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

ANYTHING WITH JOHNNY DEPP!!! :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

[Twilight Flyer]

We saw "I Am Legend" last night.

Easily one of the most disturbing and terrifying movies I've ever seen. Absolutely fan-freaking-tastic. :shock: :shock: :shock: Definitely a movie where you'll go home and sleep with the lights on.

I've heard some rumblings that he might get tapped for an Academy Award nomination for that movie. Wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Really? Well, I may have to watch that one. We thought about seeing that one, but we've seen some of the others.

Twilight Flyer, if you like Tommy Lee Jones, go see "No Country For Old Men."

[Twilight Flyer]

You know what was so cool about I Am Legend? No blood, no brutal head-ripping violence. It was just so believable and so well-acted...I've got claw marks in my left arm from where my wife grabbed me an held on. Gore-freaks looking for gallons of blood will probably be disappointed. But this movie scares worse than any other movie I've ever seen, slasher or none, and I don't scare easily.

Can't wait to see it again. :twisted:

[mommee]

One movie that I enjoy watching again and again is "American Beauty". It's a little off the beaten path, but great.

Maybe my tastes in movies are just on the weird side. :shock:

[RebelDarlin]

Anybody see Farce of the Penguins? It's a spoof of March of the Penguins. Very funny stuff...

[headborg]

I want to see that chic flick movie PS I Love You. Hope it is good, I hear that In the Land of Women is good.


Yeah, my wife and I both liked the previews of PS, I love YOU...

and In the land of Women was-------so, so.

Yeah, Wife and I went out to see this while I was home- You know it's a remake of Omaga Man(Charlton Heston 1971) right?

I thought it was great---very nice re-work of the book.

But, I'm still looking out for another take on this--something like where he's the Last Man standing--holding up in a penthouse apartment in a skyscraper building----hunts the infected by day and searches for supplies, and has to fight defensively floor by floor (in his building) to hold them off every night. You could have IR sentry machine guns, claymore mines,

[Twilight Flyer]

Yep. Don't remember much of the first one...it was a looong time ago when I saw it.

Sounds like a video game. :shock:

[Trukrswyfe]

Just saw 3:10 to Yuma, :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Not sure of the reviews but I liked it, Russel Crowe is captivating

all in

Gladiator :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

[mommee]

I saw 'Cloverfield' this past Friday. I liked it, thought it was pretty good. It was shot from the point of view of someone's video camera. I thought that was interesting.

I was a little disappointed with the monster, but I won't ruin it for the others. I'll wait to see it again and see everything that I missed.


:idea: :idea: :idea:

[Jackrabbit379]

Just say 3:10 to Yuma, :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Man. That's an old western. If I remember right, Glenn Ford was in that one. I've always liked Glenn Ford. One of my favorites was "The Violent Men", with Edward G. Robinson.

[Trukrswyfe]

Saving Silverman Ha haaaaaa :lol: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

[jayburd]

Your correct Jackrabbit.....I wanna see the new anyway.
For some reason I always thought Lee Van Cleef is in the original,a really small part and gets shot at the beginning.
The Wild Bunch is one of my all time favoritres.

[Ridge Runner]

Well ain't I the lucky one. My father-in-law brought me BOTH!!! Now....which one to watch first??? :?

[Trukrswyfe]

Well ain't I the lucky one. My father-in-law brought me BOTH!!! Now....which one to watch first??? :?


Both of the 3:10 to Yuma? If so I would recommend the one with Russel Crowe and Christian Bale, the newest one :D




Your wife will thank me, :wink:

[Ridge Runner]

So I should watch the latest one first then the orginal ?

[Trukrswyfe]

yup

[Jackrabbit379]

Dang. I didnt know that there was a new one. I had no idea. :shock:
Well, westerns aint like they once were, :P but I may see that one.

[Trukrswyfe]

Dang. I didnt know that there was a new one. I had no idea. :shock:

I loved it, and cried at the end, Man do I love those Jerks :P

[Jackrabbit379]

The Notebook...
My wife, and I just saw that one.
I also saw it at the theater, with a girl that I dated. I forgotten about the movie. Well, tonight, we went to Wal-Mart to get some things for the house. Of course, somehow, I always make my way through the electronics section. My wife told me that we should get it. As soon as I saw that it was James Garner, I remembered the movie. At first, I couldnt convince my wife that I saw the movie, but forgotten it. I finally told her that I saw it on a date.
Anyhow,.... my wife, and I were both tearing up a box of Kleenex. :cry:
I have to admit, it was something. Been around for a few years, but good!

[Trukrswyfe]

The Notebook is good and sweet

But picked up a chic flick for V day, (fellas Hope you didnt forget)

The Thomas Crown Affair :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

old one and new one,,

WOW forgot how racey it was, husband loved the flying he took her on, but hated the end. :D

[Trukrswyfe]

Brave One :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

[Trukrswyfe]

Just this weekend watched some movies

Becoming Jane :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

I love Jane Austen.

The Katrina story

like an amature home movie on the events, interesting but the author really had an agenda. I hated that.

Misery :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
I forgot how crazy that movie was.

I still Know What You Did Last Summer :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Funny cause it was old...
But loved the cast Freddie is a hottie!!

[Twilight Flyer]

Misery
I forgot how crazy that movie was

I cannot watch that movie at all again. Seen it once and never again. The sledgehammer to the ankles scene disturbed me for weeks. :?

Agreed

[worldisnotenough]

Nobody has mentioned an all time classic! "Thank God, Its Friday!"

[Twilight Flyer]

Yeah, but it's only Tuesday? :?

What was that all time classic you were talking about now? :wink:

[worldisnotenough]

Xanadu!

which by the way is Vito's favorite movie, as well.

[Trukrswyfe]

Nobody has mentioned an all time classic! "Thank God, Its Friday!"

You just did. :P

Now you are suppose to rate it :idea: is like thumbs up
So how many thumbs up?

Xanadu

Thank Goodness It's Friday

Olivia Newtron Bomb. :shock:

[mommee]

Wow! You guys are showing your age. :lol: :lol:

[Twilight Flyer]

I grew up back when teenage boys everywhere were ruining album covers, if you know what I mean.

I wasn't one of them...my mom confiscated the album cover for "Let's Get Physical".

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[mommee]

Just saw the trailer for "The Dark Knight", it was awesome. I wasn't so sure about Heath Ledger as the Joker until I saw the trailer. I was totally impressed. Can't wait to see the movie. This is the best Batman series. Finally, someone who can play Batman and Bruce Wayne and be believable as both characters.

[worldisnotenough]

And ledger will make the best Joker. Too bad he passed. He totally nailed it based on "The Long Halloween" story that he was based in. Can't wait! The Summer of Batman vs. Ironman! Summer is gonna rock. I need a drink!

[mommee]

I saw the trailer for Ironman. Wasn't to impressed with it. I don't know about Robert Downey Jr. I'll wait for Ironman to be on HBO.

Go get your martini... :wink:

Also saw the new TMNT movie on HBO this week, I liked it so much better than the ones that came out in the 80's. This one was a lot darker. I was a big Turtles fan.

Am I only girl that's into these comic book movies? :wink:

[worldisnotenough]

tony Stark is a drunk which makes Iron Man great. also Robert Downey JR. is a drunk so he is perfect for it. I think it really looks great.

as for the animated TMNT. I think it was done really well. It was a lot like the first movie. The neat thing about the new one was that it had some actual creators of the turtles involved and Kacey Jones was more true to his character than the guy from "some kind of wonderful" fame acting as the billy bad butt!

[mommee]

Wasn't into Ironman too much, so I don't know his history. I was going to see "Cloverfield", when I saw the trailer. I didn't even know they were making Ironman.

It will interesting to see the new Indiana Jones.

[Trukrswyfe]

Dan in Real Life :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

One of his daughters in the movie should get an Oscar,, she nailed the part. :lol:

August Rush :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Loved the music

No Reservations :idea: :idea: :idea:
Kathrine and Abigail are cute

[worldisnotenough]

Doctor Zhivago.

Great, hip soundtrack.

Oh, and laura was cute too! :wink:

[mommee]

Saw "Horton Hears a Who". It was really cute, better that I thought it would be. I'm not a big Jim Carrey fan.

I saw the trailer for Speed Racer. I don't know if my son will be ready for that one. It wasn't what I thought it would be.

[Trukrswyfe]

I am Legend :!: :!: :!:

Ok so someone here recommended it. The death of the dog had all three my boys crying and agruing with each other over who was or was not crying, and then keep repeating it's just a movie while my seven year old climbed into my lap. I hated that part, :evil: :evil: :evil:

Enchanted :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:

Ok so I watched their manly movies so they all watched mine. Funny they really enjoyed this movie Toooo. And at the end were surprised at how much they like it. Course it is really a girly girl flick so men ...
I loved it the whole thing was cute.

[Twilight Flyer]

Regarding "I Am Legend." I saw it twice in the theatres and picked up the extended version DVD when it came out this week. The extended version has a completely different ending than the theatrical version and that ending completely changes the entire premise of the movie. As much as I loved the movie in the theatres, the alternate ending movie was even better. Definitely up there among my top 3 or 4 favorite movies now.

Unless the dog makes it.... I don't think I could consider buying the DVD... My kids are absolute animal lovers and it broke their little hearts to see that. So tell me does that part change? His cure works on the Samantha?

side note... the movie about my dog named skip ( I think it was) the terrier ..Old yeller... Where the Red fern grows... Sons love anything with a dog in it but when the dogs dies....They HATE the movie and won't watch it again. :evil:

[Twilight Flyer]

I watched Old Yeller and Where the Red Fern Grows...agree with you, too. I can never watch them again. No, Samantha still doesn't make it. Sorry. But the alternate ending is still phenominal.

[worldisnotenough]

two movies!


Watership down and Inbanana Jones and temple of Goons! Great flicks.

[mommee]

I loved Watership Down. Bigwig. I thought it was violent for a cartoon at the time I saw it. Especially when the bad rabbits ripped apart the one and killed him.

[worldisnotenough]

There's a dog loose in the woods! :shock: :shock:

[Trukrswyfe]

Atonement :idea: :idea:

Not such a good movie.

Zodiac :idea: :idea: :idea:

Interesting, but wierd, l enjoyed all the great actors in the film though.

[Twilight Flyer]

Watched August Rush the other night...went right up to the top of my most favorit movies. Excellent, excellent, movie.

[Trukrswyfe]

I haven't seen

Top Gun in a while, but was thinking about watching it, we used to know all the lines as kids. :lol:

I also miss, great cartoons that my kids are missing out on.

Like The Jetsons

or The Flinstones, Husband reminds me or Fred except replace the bowling with flying. But the meal sizes are exactly the same. :lol: The whole half a teradactle dinosaur. :wink:

[worldisnotenough]

Blame it on Rio! Sorry that avatar just reminded me of that movie.

[Trukrswyfe]

Alvin and the Chipmunks :idea: :idea:

Not so good,

So far Transformers is still the highest on My list

Its time for the Summer Blockbusters to come out and yet I have heard of nothing in the works,

Has anyone else? I really enjoy summer action, double meaning. :lol: :wink:

[Twilight Flyer]

Its time for the Summer Blockbusters to come out and yet I have heard of nothing in the works,

Some good ones coming out...

Ironman

Narnia (Prince Caspian)

Dark Knight

To name a few...

BTW, I thought Transformers was good, too. The 2nd one is in the works...not sure when it's supposed to be released, though.

[mommee]

Can't wait for The Dark Knight. I used to watch the Batman cartoon based on the Dark Knight.

[Twilight Flyer]

The new Indiana Jones movie comes out in May, too.

[mommee]

I loved the Indy movies, but don't you think he is getting too old?

I think I have Guitar Hero snydrome, my hand hurts. :lol:

[Twilight Flyer]

I loved the Indy movies, but don't you think he is getting too old?

Harrison Ford is in remarkably incredible shape for being 65. I've seen the scenes to the new movie...classic Indy. And he did all his own stunts, too. Gotta love that.

I think I have Guitar Hero snydrome, my hand hurts.

I know the feeling. The tips of my fingers on my left hand and my the wrist of my right hand have told me I need to take a week off. :)

[mommee]

I just saw "Blades of Glory". I laughed so hard. It was that funny. Will F. doing his routine to "The Stroke" was a riot. When I heard the theme from "Flash Gordon" for the final routine, I almost fell out of my chair. "Flash Gordon" was a really bad movie, but I watch it over and over when I see it on.

[Twilight Flyer]

Saw "10,000 BC" last week. Not a bad flick at all...definitely enjoyable.

[Trukrswyfe]

Juno....
:idea: :idea: :idea:
for bringing back funny memories.

Strangly similar in the fact that I was a Junior in High School and knocked up. The rest was definitely not, my family kicked my butt to the curb, I kept the baby, and It was not due to one act. :lol:

I could relate to being a freak walking around for nine months, but my male teachers rocked. I was always excuse to vomit in my second period and allowed to snack in my third. Love coah Hoff. The men teacher were cooler that the women. Though I had one nice woman teacher that gave me baby clothes. I remember having to squeeze the belly into those terribly small chairs, talk about funny moment waiting to happen.


TommyBoy/Black Sheep

There Will Be Blood
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Interesting

[Twilight Flyer]

Wife and I saw Forbidden Kingdom when it released on Friday. Jackie Chan & Jet Li. Excellent movie...good storyline, the action was great and Jackie Chan can be pretty funny. The fight scenes were definitetly good and there were a couple of kick-ass women martial artists, too. Whoo Hoo! :twisted: But the highlight was definitely a long fight scene between Chan and Li. Those two guys are freakin' nuts! :shock:

[RebelDarlin]

Watched 2 old faves this weekend

Legends of the Fall and A River Runs Through It.

Makes me miss the mountains :cry:

[Drew10]

OMG! Go Speed Racer GO
Yup....thats "dating" us....one of my favorites when I was a "youngin'"
Always wanted a "Mach 5".... :)

[RebelDarlin]

I know it's 'dating' us, but did you look at the video? The computer animation is amazing! It's come a LONG WAY since Tron! :wink:

[Drew10]

Yes...Looked at the vid...(fortunatly Broadband speed in Lake Station). It was amazing. They kept with the original opening song pretty good too, with just enough of todays stlye mixed in.
(Tron...more memories... :) )

[Twilight Flyer]

Tron...more memories

Remember the Tron coin-op video game? 8)

TRON, the movie is a classic, way ahead of it's time. Actually because of how they filmed it, it still looks pretty good.

[Trukrswyfe]

I am looking forward to the "New Indiana" movie....

Thinking of doing a marathon of all the old movies first.

I hope it isn't disappointing from what I remember.


But seeing the clip reminded me of another old movie I want to revisit.

Romancing The Stone ~ starring Michael Douglas and Kathline Turner.

They had some great chemistry. :P

[Twilight Flyer]

Romancing The Stone ~ starring Michael Douglas and Kathline Turner

Saw that again a couple months ago...wife and I love that movie. I remember years ago Michael Douglas doing and interview about that movie. Remember the scene where they slide down the muddy hill? Apparently, the position they ended up in (his head between her legs) was an accident. Michael Douglas was saying in the interview "It wasn't scripted like that, but I'll always be grateful for the stuntman leaving me in that position."

:P

[dobry4u]

Saw Iron Man last night at an early viewing. That movie was fantastic. The audience applauded at the end. Haven't been to a movie where they did that in a long time. Excellent movie... even worth the price of popcorn to boot!

[Trukrswyfe]

One Missed Call

:idea: :idea: :idea:

not so scary, but a little freaky.

Thinking of older movies that thrill

SWF
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Crazy but good

Hand that Rocks the Cradle
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:


Kids slept outside in a tent so they wanted to be scared when they went to sleep. The cell phone movie was cool, cuz I just called my phone to scare them. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That movie "ROCKED" (no pun intended). Had me on the edge of my seat.

[Twilight Flyer]

Yep, I agree that the Hand that Rocked the Cradle was seriously disturbing. :)

And I took my son to see Iron Man on Saturday. Packed house...audience went nuts. Phenominal movie...Robert Downy Jr. was excellent as Tony Stark. Will probably take wife to see it this week.

I watched Iron Man the other night from the comfort of my bed, and I loved it. I may have to go see it in the theater now.

[RebelDarlin]

I saw the trailer for Ironman. Wasn't to impressed with it. I don't know about Robert Downey Jr. I'll wait for Ironman to be on HBO.

Go get your martini... :wink:

Also saw the new TMNT movie on HBO this week, I liked it so much better than the ones that came out in the 80's. This one was a lot darker. I was a big Turtles fan.

Am I only girl that's into these comic book movies? :wink:


Nope! I loved the Lara Croft movies and am waiting for WitchBlade next year. Loved the TV series and think it's one of the most beautiful comic books I've seen. A bit on the "mature" side though.


Hearing GREAT things about Ironman, and Wanted (release date June 27) is supposed to be another awesome comic turned movie. I love the TopCow comics! http://topcow.com/comics

[JETLags Wife]

I have the 8 at a time subscription with unlimited instant watching.

The next 2 movies I want to see in the theater are the new X-Files movie and the new Star Trek movie.

I bought Transformers before I ever watched it. Saw Sweeney Todd in the theater then bought it. Those are the newest movies that I have bought on DVD.

I am currently working on building up my 24 collection and my collection of fictional disaster movies then will work on building up my horror, science fiction, true and fictional crime and true and fictional medical dramas.

[Trukrswyfe]

Over My Dead Body~starring Eva Longria and Paul Rudd. ( love paul)

:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: 5 light bulb comedy.
Momme: You would really enjoy the humor of the man characters, deadpan,
Hillarious, and worth the rental.

[Jimbo56]

I watched "Second Hand Lions" the other day. Old, but a real tear jerker. One of the posters on the message board has the quote "Dance Like no bodies Watching" at the end of thier posts. Kinda made me think of that movie.

Just saw "Speed Racer", it was good. Although it was a little too long for small children to sit through. It makes you want to drive real fast. I want a Mach 5. :wink:

[RebelDarlin]

New Batman R.I.P Comic Book coming May 14 has a new Batmobile. What do you think of it?

Well screw this training stuff. I am running to blockbuster!

[Trukrswyfe]

Indiana Jone Raiders of the Lost Ark.....
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Holds up well for being almost 30 years old.
Kids liked it.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom...
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
That little kids was so cute. My boys really enjoyed that
although the kept calling Indiana, Hans Solo. :wink: :wink:

We did see the bar in the being, had a Star Wars name.
Nice touch by Lucas.
they were pretty well made. But once again I am reminded of Romacing the Stone movies, something about going on adventures in strange countries.

[mommee]

I just saw "The Queen". It was great. Now I know why Helen Mirren won the Academy Award. She even looked like Queen Elizabeth. I'll probably watch it again, to see the parts that I missed.

The New Indiana Jones Movie opened here this weekend. First time I've lines around the block at the theater here in years.!

[Twilight Flyer]

My dad was up visiting this week, so I took him to see the new Indiana Jones movie yesterday since he loves those movies. We really enjoyed it. It was a lot lighter than the others, but classic Indy and the story was a fun one with a lot of good one-liners and funny stuff. The movie also did a great job doing the storyline where Shia Lebeauf (sp?) would be the new Indy in the next film(s).

[Trukrswyfe]

Fools Gold

[finger_lakes]

Here's some of my favorites:
Animated - The Lion King
Comedy - Born in the USA
Adventure - Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc
Drama - On the Waterfront
Romantic Comedy - The Wedding Singer or When Harry Met Sally
Romance - African Queen (some of you might not view it as a romance movie)
Sci Fi - Andromeda Strain or Running Man.

But according to my wife, my all time favorite movie - A Christmas Story

[Twilight Flyer]

Here's some of my favorites:
Animated - The Lion King

I have a feeling that Wall-E is going to score as one of the funniest Pixar movies ever.

Comedy - Born in the USA

Ground Hog Day, Caddyshack, Walk Like A Man

Adventure - Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc

Good flick, one of my favorites, too. I loved the LotR movies, too. Can't wait for the Hobbit to come out. The Harry Potter movies are all well-done, too, and extremely enjoyable. Die Hard was a great one, too.

Drama - On the Waterfront

Mr. Holland's Opus, if that could be considered a drama. Fantastic movie.

Romantic Comedy - The Wedding Singer or When Harry Met Sally

Wedding Singer was good, so was 50 First Dates. If you haven't seen the latter, do so. Fun movie.

Romance - African Queen (some of you might not view it as a romance movie)

Never got into sappy for the sake of sappy. Wife isn't into the, either, thankfully. So we look for Romantic Comedies. But the one that stands out in the Romance category was City Of Angels with Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan. If that don't make you bawl, you're heartless.

Sci Fi - Andromeda Strain or Running Man.

Running Man was good. Matrix was excellent. Any of the Star Wars movies are re-watchable over and over again. For the Andromeda Strain, are you talking about the old one or the new 4-hour one that just came out last month? Never saw the first one, but we're halfway through the recent one and it's really good.

Speaking of Disney, I was listening to my 'Lilo and Stitch' soundtrack today. I remembered what a great movie it was and all the Elvis references. I thought it was a 'different movie' from what Disney usually produces.

I am counting the days to the Dark Knight. I think even my husband maybe interested in seeing this one.

[Fredog]

I cant remember the name but the movie starring Jamie Fox and Jake Gillenhall where they go to fight in Iraq, I thought it was pretty good

Jarhead.. that's it
also one of my favorites is Clint Eastwood Heartbreak Ridge

[Twilight Flyer]

I took the family to see Kung Fu Panda this past weekend. I swear, I haven't laughed that hard in quite some time. Very funny, very good movie!

[Roadhog]

I'm looking forward to "The Incredible Hulk."
I enjoyed "Ironman." :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

I'm a sociopath...so I avoid theaters. Unless I can lurk about in the back row...with the rest of the sociopaths. mmmhuh...maybe I'm not so antisocial after all. Naw,,,I'm too busy trying to control and keep saving the seats next to me, for my imaginary friends...and telling everybody to shut up, and watch the movie. :?

Actually Dad....errr Drew10:

You got! Penelope....errr Christina..... errr aka Wednesday is cute.
But in the movie that is so adorable, she plays the modern day Beast and McAvory plays the modern day Beauty.
Ok Ok..... That may be a bit confusing but it's a take on Beauty and the Beast but done in a way the man has to over come the ulgy to get to the woman within.
It is actually very sweet, Produced by Reese Witherspoon
For Young girls to realize they are more then just the outside and you definately want a man to love you for both.

James McAvoy is ... errr.... His eyes.....His voice...... His umm (flustered)
Is gorgeous. He plays a wonderful beauty.

[Trukrswyfe]

Finally saw Hancock

I like it. I wanted to see it so I made sure not to pay to much attention to the comments on it. I like to be surprised.
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

I was happily surprised , and ..... Dont call me crazy :twisted:

It was unique and funny, of course there is one scene I could have lived without seeing. The faces of the inmates was enough, they did not need to go there. But still good.

[Roadhog]

I still haven't seen "Dark Knight." :P
I wanted to see "Wall-E"...but that slipped by.
(can't believe I allowed myself to miss a 'Toon.)

I finally watched "Pirates of the Caribbean At Worlds End."
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
...but you all have seen it...I'm sure.

Our local Library rents DVD's for a buck.
That is usually how I get to see a movie.
...about a year after release.

Watched "Into The Wild."
:idea: :idea: :idea: :?:

148 minutes long, a film based on a true story.
The only reason I couldn't give it a higher rating, is I was left feeling
how stupid and wasteful this young man was, for such a smart and genuine person.
It had some touching moments and keeps you engaged.
I guess an idealist would reflect some deeper message.
I just left with why do the rich and privileged feel the need to abandon comfort with distorted freedom?
...and why do we need to feel that is a worthy quest?

Well... this movie will have you reflect human conditions and emotions. Good scenery, and interesting characters.

[Trukrswyfe]

On the advise from a friend I checked out Dune a sci fi classic.

Well it looked vaguely familiar to me, the kids were unimpressed but watched it anyways. They prefer StarWars to it, they used a lot of made up words and definitions it was hard to follow at first even with the outline. It was cool seeing present actors when they were younger. I recognized quite a few.

Dune
:idea: :idea:
I can't say it is going to be one of my fav's.

The Bank Job
:idea: :idea: :idea:
Well it is foreign that's for sure. I got to see tons of the female anatomy.
Mostly during those seens I just watch my husband. :twisted: I love to spoil it for him. :lol: :lol: Said to be a true story or based on one. Definitely couldn't have been done today, but it was funny, I enjoyed the english accents and the role the ham radio operator played in the whole thing. Roadhog I am sure you will enjoy this and for the rest, I wouldn't watch it with the kiddos.

[Trukrswyfe]

The Bridge
:idea: :idea:

Not sure who's brain child this was, but a documentary on the San Fransisco Bridge and the people who use it to end their lives.
Morbid. There are enough depressing things in this world then to waste one's time watching depressing movies. I didn't care for it. :?

American Gangster
:idea: :idea: :idea:
Ok so I like the two main actors not the characters they play. It was sickening to see all the drug use, and the disgusting man that could help destroy his fellow man and still sit in a pretty suit on Sunday in church. I wanted to make myself vomit.

I enjoyed that they took him down but 15 years was not enough.
Cudos to the cop who busted other dirty cops, it took big ones.

Nims Island
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Of course I enjoyed it, It was cute, and light hearted, Jodie Foster has always been a wonderful actor. She could have used some more steamy scenes but it was a kids show so. :D

[JETLags Wife]

I loved Hancock because I liked the total package of the movie, the amnesia, the back story of where Hancock came from, its being a somewhat comedic scifi movie and his decision at the end.

When I went to see The X-Files: I Want to Believe, I was one of only 3 people in the theater and we all realized at the same time that what we were seeing of Hancock was NOT a preview but the actual Hancock movie. Being a big X-Phile as well as a fan of Billy Connolly and the other 2 patrons agreed that we paid to see The X-Files and would not be satisfied seeing any other movie so we got it fixed within 5 minutes. I thoroughly enjoyed it especially because it was so "crowded" in there (I am very allergic to scented products and had no problem finding a seat where I had no problem with that - my husband's and my enjoyment of Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3D was almost aborted 15 minutes into the movie when a crowd of people walked in all wearing loads of perfume/cologne and decided the best place to sit was very close to me - I had already found best place for me prior to their entrance so there was nowhere else for me to go - this is why I will NOT see The Dark Knight before it comes out on DVD, has been being too crowded every showing being sold out or very close to sold out even in middle of day)

[flood]

Trukrswyfe how long was the version of dune that you saw.? it was released in three different versions. their is ALOT cut out of it in the shorter ones, things like the intro by the printess at the start runs around 4min in the short and 11min in the long version and that extra 7min tells you alot more about the story line.

the copy i have has had ALL the deleted scenes reinstalled and longer versions of some scenes also reinstalled and you would not believe how it changes the story line.

if you rented it you most likely got the short one (has over an hour cut out of it) and it is dam hard to follow what is going on

I got a VHS tape that was all they had, and it really felt like I started the movie in the middle because things weren't explained very well. I have since been told that it was first a book and if I would have read it more of the movie would have made sense. Im sure it was a good movie at the time.

I do like nostalgic things that bring you back to a different time in your life. I for one love, love the smell of an outboard, heavy oil 50/1, Just the smell alone takes me back to being a kids and working at our family Marina. Those were some of the best times of my life as a kid. That and boat wax, My job for every summer was gasing boats and waxing them.

sorry I just got side tracked, :D

what if you wait 2 years to do it?

[Twilight Flyer]

On a movie note, 2 of my children went and auditioned last weekend for the Children of the Corn remake they are doing here in Iowa. If they get parts, I might have to go see that one in the theatre. :D

If anyone has see the original and remembers what Malaki looked like, there was a look-alike there at auditions and they pulled him right out of line and took him inside for screen tests. :)

Lots of hopefuls...they weeded them out by coming out and saying "if you don't know what this movie is about, you need to do some research. If you can't handle blood and gore, killing your parents and other adults, then you need to go." That got rid of quite a few...it was really interesting to see how many people showed up for a movie audition, not knowing what the movie was about.

Am I to take it your kids stayed??? :lol:

[Twilight Flyer]

Are you kidding me? Brandyn wants to BE Malaki in the movie. :shock:

[Twilight Flyer]

Oh, I forgot to add. One of the things the casting people said to whittle down the throng was "if anyone has braces on their teeth, you are disqualified. No on in this movie would be wearing braces."

That and "you can't be afraid of machetes."

That is really interesting! I have always wondered how child actors get "in" to the business. I hope that he gets cast! That's exciting!

[Twilight Flyer]

Well, if they do get cast (long shot at best) it would be for background extras. I can't see them getting a speaking part, though I can see Brandyn stalking the streets of town with a machette and a hockey mask, looking to hack up young virgins. :shock:

Seriously, Brandyn has always wanted to get into that industry in one form or another, whether acting or doing voice overs. He's a master at impersonation...can hear a voice and then nail it. And he's a ham through and through.

We've got a YouTube video out from last year where we did the Numa Numa song as a family. If you want to see it, go out to YouTube and search for keywords "kbkreative" or "numa nine". That should pull it up. Brandyn is the obvious one.

Seriously, Brandyn has always wanted to get into that industry in one form or another, whether acting or doing voice overs. He's a master at impersonation...can hear a voice and then nail it. And he's a ham through and through.

We've got a YouTube video out from last year where we did the Numa Numa song as a family. If you want to see it, go out to YouTube and search for keywords "kbkreative" or "numa nine". That should pull it up. Brandyn is the obvious one.

:lol:

That was the shiz-nizzle!!! I can NOT believe how perfect the lip-synching was!! AMAZING!!! The comments are cool, too! It looks like it got the appreciation it deserved! Are all 7 yours? They are adorable!! They all have the knack...not just Brandyn (yes, he was obvious)!

[Twilight Flyer]

Yeah, lip-syncing a Romanian song was a bit of a challenge.

However, if you look closely at the shot where they are all sitting on my car, I screwed up the editing and it's off the sound track. Because it's a long shot, it's impossible to see unless you are looking right at one of the kids. But my daughter won't let me forget it. :)

They are all ours as in, my wife and I have 3 each by previous marriage and the little one is ours. Interestingly enough, we have the Brady Bunch thing going on. A pair of 15's (2 months apart), a pair of 12's (2 days apart), and a pair of 10's (8 months apart), then the 6 year old. Makes life interesting, to be sure.

Well, I think it's great that ya'll do stuff like that! First of all, I wouldn't even know how to begin and second of all, half way through it, my kids would be fighting and we'd never finish it! What a cool family set-up though! Everyone but hte baby has a partner in crime!! I bet school starting is fun at your house! I'm buying clothes and supplies for 3 (the baby is still..well..a baby) and I'm about to croak! I can't even imagine!!!

[Twilight Flyer]

Yeah, school started this week...along with marching band, football, and dance.

:shock:

I wonder if I have a rich uncle somewhere that is about to die? :wink:

[BlooMoose]

I saw a commercial the other night about people who seached these lists of unclaimed properties and found out that they had been willed all kinds of money...what are the odds that you or I just might have a dead, rich uncle...I could use a rich uncle these days!!! Hmmm...are there any here?

[Trukrswyfe]

Ok so Jaws Mania was on this weekend and we got to watch all three Jaws movies. It was fun, I can only imagine what an awesome show that would have been if made these days but with the same cast. I know I don't need to give a review.

Jaws I, II and III
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
Oldie but goodie.

Prom Night
:idea:
I wasn't really impressed with it, not into scarey movies but for a so called thriller I think it tanked. Bland, predictable and unoriginal.

What Happens in Vegas
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:
I liked it. You can all say it " You would". The ending was sappy and dumb though. But the rest of the movie was funny. It's about love that begins as hate. Which in my opinion is the best kind. The beginning half where it first introduces you to Ashton's character, good idea. Can't wait to be empty nester.

[mommee]

I finally saw all of "Catch and Release". It takes a month, with kids interrupting every 15min, for me to watch a movie. :lol: It's a total chick flick and a good time. It was cute. I loved Kevin Smith. Great ending too.

[mommee]

Anybody catch these movies, they all have the Middle Eastern/Indian twist-

Bend It Like Becham

East is East

Monsoon Wedding

[Twilight Flyer]

No, but I hear Beverly Hills Cop IV is about to go into production. :shock:

[Trukrswyfe]

Ok Recent Watches

Sassy Girl
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

alas I am a romantic so in that respect it was a good movie. But the main chic sucked.... Then I thought about and reconsidered .... *shrug shoulders*. Different not what I expected.

Miss Pettigrew live for a day
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Based on the a book (which I hear is much racier). Enjoyable and entertaining and I really like Amy Adams from.

The Mist
:idea: :idea:

Typical Steven King though I didn't know it till the very last scene. When it happened I said out load" This is a Steven King movie, huh?"
My kids like scary I like funny and girlly so we co watch.

Just Add Water
:idea: :idea:

Weird. Just Weird. Not bad, not good just weird.

Now to a Great movie. Hillarious but if you don't like SNL you might not like it.

Baby Mama
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Trukr even enjoyed this chic flick. Which truly does say something. He actually laughed out load. As so my kids didn't like it. The were confused and outraged in the frist few minutes of the movie. I don't want to spoil it but a basic summary was unmarried childless woman wants to have a child (clock ticking thing). Anyway at the beginning she visits a spermbank and it actually used the word sperm. My 14yearold son stopped the movie because I was cooking and these are his words.
" Mom I think you need to watch this, I don't think it is appropiate for kids"
I didn't know what he meant at first so I said what happened. backed it up. Watched it and I still didn't see what got him so upset. Then he pointed to the word sperm on the screem. " THAT is just wrong!"

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think we need to have the talk clearly I might have missed something when I first explained the birds and bees.

[Trukrswyfe]

Made of Honor
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

I liked it alot but I'm a sap. Dumb ending but I forgive them.

Speed Racer
:idea: :idea: :idea:

I can't say I liked it but my kids did. I only enjoyed Trixie. 8)


The Love Guru
:idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

It was so dumb it was right up my alley. Summed up in one word.
DAM!
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I think I am going to watch it again.

[Roadhog]

Saw this movie last Sunday, and loved it.
Had some pretty funny stuff. http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l236/Leland10/thumb.gif
I'm using Fandango now to buy tickets.

That's the way to do it. I like Fandango. I like to know if I can see the movie I intended to see before I get there and find out it's sold out!

I am throwing up a little bit in my mouth right now because my oldest girl is trying to force me to take her to see High School Musical 3 on October 24th...oh, gag! I am so sick of teeny boppers!!

I did get Speed Racer for the kids and it was a llittle weird. I missed The Happening when it was in theaters so that is next on my list...I guess us old folk are groupie-ish, too...I only want to see it because it has Mark Wahlberg in it.....

I have really gotten out of touch with movies lately. I think the last one I went to was "No Country for Old Men" (I think that's the name of it). I kind of have my old stand-by favorites that I love to watch over and over...like Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man and Little Odessa and Four Brothers (did I say Marky Mark???)

[Twilight Flyer]

I think we're going to head out and see Eagle Eye tonight. I'll be sure to report on it. Looks pretty good.

OH YEAH! That's the other one I want to see! Please do report back....

[mommee]

i saw 'tortilla soup' this weekend on one of the movie channels. it's a really good movie about family. it's centered around food and the dinner table, along the lines of the movie 'soul food'.

[Twilight Flyer]

Oh, I forgot to report on Eagle Eye, didn't I?

Excellent movie! About 5 minutes into the movie, it kicks into overdrive and never lets up. Good plot and terrifyingly real. :eek:

[Trukrswyfe]

Sorry I haven't even heard of it....
Or is it that show where the two main characters get phone calls telling them specific instructions to avoid harm to their family member?



I want the old man to take me to "Fireproof your marriage" starring Kirk Cameron. It's actually a good movie, says the reviews, and has a decent message as aposed to typical Hollywood entertainment.

But we did rent IronMan that came out on video even though we saw it in the theaters. I do say Robert Downey Jr. has come a long way from the Pick up Artist..... Props and cudos to him for working instead of spending time locked up. I wanted to see "Tropic Thunder" just because of his performance. I hear it is an equal opportunity offender. I am tired of PC.

[Twilight Flyer]

Yes, Eagle Eye was about the 2 people getting phone calls, directing them to do things.

Robert Downey Jr. has a new movie coming out with Jamie Foxx, called The Soloist. Wife and I saw the scenes and immediately put it on our list of movies to see. It definitely looks like a heart-string puller.

[BIG JEEP on 44's]

Italian Superman ...lol

[Trukrswyfe]

Indiana Jones The Cavern of the Crystal Sculls
3 lightbulbs......

Typical indy stuff and George Lucas detail but it was underexcpetations I guess.
Where are my lightbulbs?

Leatherheads
5 lightbulbs.....

I was happily surprised how much I liked it. It was witty, funny, and included football. ( husband picked it out) He sure knows my tastes. :)

[Trukrswyfe]

The Hulk
4 .:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:thumbs up.

Edward Norton did a surprisingly good job. I would have never thought he could play the Incredible Hulk let alone do it well. I liked it.

[shyykatt]

I recently watched "Street kings" and.....umm, I forgot the name of the other one lol.

[shyykatt]

Got it!!!

"Gone baby gone"
both movies were pretty good.

[BlooMoose]

Edward Norton does nothing BUT a good job...but, maybe I'm a little biased...because he's such a scrumptious HOTTIE!!!! He was great in "The Italian Job" (I think that's what it was called)...he's such a lip-smacking good bad guy!!!

[Jackrabbit379]

We bought Iron Man at WalMart last night. It was worth buying. I thought the movie was pretty good. Robert Downy Jr isnt one of my favorites, but pretty good movie. I just wished it was longer. :p

[mommee]

just saw 'wall e' and 'kung fu panda' yesterday. i liked 'wall e' better. real cute.

[Rev.Vassago]

Wall-E was good. Thanks for the recommendation. <3

[BlooMoose]

Do you remember this kids movie (it is older...but it's my favorite movie that the kids had...)..."Iron Giant". I loved that movie.

[Jackrabbit379]

The Man with No Name strikes again! :lol2:

Clint Eastwood! He directs, and stars in Gran Torino. I just saw the preview on TV.
He's a Korean War veteran. He gets involved with an oriental gang, when one of them tries to steal his Gran Torino. :lol:

I don't think my wife would care for this one, but I'm thinking about seeing this one. :clap:

Here's the preview from IMDB.

i saw 'marley and me' this past weekend. i loved it. i read the book too. we are on our 2nd labrador. they all weren't as bad as marley. although the current one had chewed through 3 LL Bean dog beds when he was a pup.
