Re: Movies
Last night I took my wife to see Made of Honor. I enjoyed the movie, it was a bit chick flickish but there were a few times when I laughed out loud.

Re: Movies
Rent the movie "Once". Great movie. Low budget film out of Ireland, but a great movie. Actually, I'd recommend buying it on DVD.

Re: Movies
Juno-- I want to see it I heard its funny though I have heard that people are upset because teen pregnancy shouldn't be a funny thing
Charlie Wilsons War--- went to see it the day it debuted then found out it wasn't in the theatre I went to.... not to happy....
Zodiak--- are you kidding? my sister and my cousin went to it and they said they didn't care about the money they wanted the time they wasted watching it back....
23--- great movie I loved the way it was put together
Lions for Lambs.... most people didn't like it but I thought it was pretty good reminded me of a poormans Crash, where everything ties into each other but if you weren't paying attention you wouldn't really notice.
Michael Clayton--- I downloaded it twice and one time it was in Spanish and the second time it was in French so I think I may just have to go rent that one
Televison shows
I liked Jericho--- I don't think of much of a future for the show however even though CBS killed it then decided to ordered 7 eppisodes I think it is similar to Prison Break where only so many people can die while others continue to live before the show looses its momentum...
and the lesser known Life about a guy that was sentenced to life for killing his friend and his family and after 12 years is found that he couldn't of did it, part of the severance is what is believed to be in the nieborhood of 50million and a job as a homicide detective he finds out who actually killed his friend but now needs to find out why and why they framed him.... NBC ordered the back end of the first season but the writers strike is putting the show on hiatus for now.... damn WGA strike.... It is a lot like House but a Crime Drama.... an English Actor who does things his way, is the best but also has a short leash....

Also saw "I Am Legend" at historic Grauman/Mann's Chinese Theater on Hollywood Blvd while in California last month. I really liked it and would recommend any movie fan to try and see a movie at that theater if you ever have the chance. Sound in the theater shook you in your seat and the screen was about a mile wide. I felt a little wierd about going to a movie while on vacation but it was one of the better things we did while there. Like somebody said, it took us about an hour to unwind after the movie and the "Dark Knight" trailer is sweet.
Just rented "Rescue Dawn" and watched last night. Ending was a little dissapointing, but overall a good movie too. "Zodiac" is on tap next. There are a ton of good films out there right now IMO, both in theaters and at the store.

Re: Movies
My three favorite movies this year (and I've seen fewer than any year since 2000)
A. Zodiac. Out too early to be remembered by the Academy, I think it's one of the best of the year. I love true stories. Robert Downey Jr. can really act when he's not drinking or drugging. Too bad it didn't come out with the biggies, but made a nice late winter movie.
B. Michael Clayton. Tom Wilkinson was nominated for supporting actor Golden Globe. Didn't see most of the nominees but thought he was great. Clooney and Tilda Swinton both excellent.
C. No Country for Old Men. I think it stands with Fargo and Blood Simple as one of three truly great Coen Brothers movies. My wife, however, hated it. Go figure, guess I should have taken her to see Atonement.
Honorable Mention-- HairSpray. Better, but less memorable than the John Waters original.

Re: Movies
Went to National Treasure Friday night. Dozed off during the part where Nicholas Cage kidnaps the president. Not because it wasn't any good, but I think from the five beers I had at Charlies Pizza before we went. Need to watch it again...

Re: Movies
Saw No Country for Old Men. Amazing. The whole atmosphere of the film is tense. It has a few scenes that just burned into my memory and when I think about them, they almost make me shiver. My girlfriend was afraid to go into a room with a closed door after seeing it. Also, guys, if your woman tries to make you go see P.S. I love you, fake an illness or come up with some emergency. Two hours of my life I will never get back. She owes me for that one.

Re: Movies
I have watched many of the 'new' movies and haven't been real impressed. But, tonight, I went to The Bucket List. That's a good one with two of our top actors.

Re: Movies
For anyone looking to rent an absolutely great movie, go out and rent "Once". For music fans, it's close to unbeatable. For movie fans, it's equally as good. Do yourselves a favor and check it out.
Saw "I am Legend" over the holidays. I really enjoyed it. It's not exactly one that makes you think hard, but it's a fun movie to watch with lots of scare moments in it.
I've only heard great things about "No Country For Old Men". If my wife wasn't such a wimp, I'd go to it tonight. She doesn't like those sorts of movies, though.
