What is the last movie you saw? and rate it.

Whenever he is in something, no matter how bad the movie may be, he is the only good thing about it. I actually wanted to see "Juno" because of him, but honestly, I can't bring myself to watch it. There just doesn't seem to be anything even remotely appealing about it. Maybe I will sit through it someday when I have seen all the movies that I want to and I eventually have nothing else to watch but "Juno". So, no, even Jason Bateman couldn't help with the lack of desire to see that film.

By the way, Nick, what was the timespan that you watched all of these films? I am asking because that was really a long list of ratings. :) Oh, and have you heard about the possible "Arrested Development" film?

About three weeks to a month. Barton Fink, Fargo, Candy, Sherrybaby and Clockers within the last week and 8 1/2 last night. I have a habit of buying movies I haven't seen and never watching them; I've had Best of Youth since it was released, a year or two ago, but still haven't watched it (it's six hours long).

I didn't hear about, but I'm excited now.

Are you a fan of Curb your Enthusiasm? If you are, you might be interested in his current project; it's a Woody Allen film!

Currently watching -- Happy Feet.

Its a cute movie, I like the Amegios (sp?) :)

That's such a hard question to answer. I've given it some serious thought, hoping something will spring to mind but I just have too many choices. I watch a lot of foreign and indie films, mostly Chinese and Scandinavian because I rated a couple of those movies highly so netflix keeps suggesting other movies and I keep adding them to my queue but I try to shake it up every now and then. I tend to like kind of arty and despressing movies...although I have that part of me that loves science fiction, the older Star Wars movies, a few of the Classic Trek movies and Firefly will always have a place on my favorites list.

I just watched Black Snake Moan. I don't see what was so shocking. The chain thing wasn't that big a deal. How could any body who has seen Blue Velvet or a John Waters' film be shocked by this.

"Knocked Up"-crude language but very funny.

Saw Sex and the City last night, I'd give it a 7/10

I want the shoes!!!! :p




But the most exciting bit is that I finally saw the new X-files being promoted. :D

It was so horrible we had to stop the DVD after the first 40 minutes - totally pathetic. I give the movie a minus zero.

I've heard so much about the SatC movie - most good and some bad. I was nver a huge fan of the series, but did enjoy it when it was on. I plan to see the movie next weekend!



I watched Supertroopers while camping with mostly guys and just a few of us girls last weekend. Stupid humor at it's best. (Loved the three-foot tall cotton candy)

7/10

Yes, Sex and the City, oh hum. I'd give it a 'disappointing' out of 'outstanding' compared to the TV series. Bloated, and the City got lost. The beautiful backgrounds and character of New York neighborhoods and restaurants and shopping, all replaced by over-imagined Hollywood fantasy. My favorite City got lost completely and too-long explicit sex got put in. A very bad trade. And where does giddy and lively descend into simply immature and silly? Right! Exactly between the series and the movie. However, Chris Noth was outstanding in the midst of it all. Women should comment on the oiled and shining gleaming-bodied muscled fantasy-handsome he-men who were inserted as women's dream-like hunky specimens.
Chris Noth, fully-clothed, any way, any day!

The Grapes of Wrath-an excellent movie based on an excellent book.

Hitch's best film, "Vertigo" maybe for the 6th or 7th time, powerful as ever; great music.

Hi OswaldTheOsprey, just talking with my sister about this film yesterday. You saw the old version, right? The one with the great, late and very young, Henry Fonda? I loved this film and it was so sad, tragic. They don't make films as great as this one anymore. I loved the novel, as well. It is excellent!

Hi biquist, absolutely agree, one of my all-time favorite Hitch films! Yes, indeed, great suspenseful movie score. The movie had it all. Loved all the little details and touches.

Well, rumor has it that the Arrested Development movie will be out sometime next year. I haven't heard anything recently. As of right now I think they are still trying to get a few of the other actors from the series to sign on. I think that it should be assumed that if they do make this film, they will only do it if they get the entire original cast from the series. I am definitely looking forward to it, though. I just hope that they don't let anybody down by deciding to not go through with it.

You know, I have never seen a single episode of this show. I actually don't have HBO. I suppose I could rent the DVDs at some point. I know my brother loves it. Do you know when they are thinking about making the movie?
