There was only one way to make Red Eye better IMO. Put in snakes. Get some motherfucking snakes onto that motherfucking plane! {pauses} Wait, I forgot- they already had Cillian Murphy.

LMAO!

Is Snakes On Planes out yet?

I recently saw Walk the Line and the new Pride and Prejudice, and I was very pleased with both.

YES! Loved both of those to pieces!

Just watched Syriana... VERY good!
Also The Matador was amusing and good...

two for two... gotta love it!

I've got Million Dollar Baby sitting here *crossing fingers*

Just watched Syriana... VERY good!

I totally forgot about Syriana! I saw that one, too!

(I should really use because I was depressed as hell afterwards.)

 

[MagicaPractica]

Just saw The Producers tonight. I thought they did a good job of preserving the "feel" of theater and it was quite funny. Lots of good sexual inuendo.

Million Dollar Baby was amazing, I loved it.
I liked Syriana as well, although it was a bit slow.

Watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang last night. I'd never heard of it and had low expectations, but I loved it. Very funny and the narration was clever as hell.

I've heard of that movie, also been told I need to see it.

Finally got around to watching Donnie Darko. Loved the 80's motif and music, thought the move was very intriguing, Gylenhol was excellent, was fun to see Swayze in a movie again and especially in that role.

Gotta love the bunny suit.

I just finished watching Last Tango In Paris for the second time, and my reaction at the end was the same: What the fuck?

I caught a rather good one yesterday, Foolproof.

A very good heist movie. Tense, rather good characters. I wasn't sure what was going to happen. It was suspenseful, funny, warm and exciting by turns. A very nice piece of work.

Recommended for an evening at home if you want a really good heist film to watch.

Moi aussi.
I think it was of its time, and doesn't quite pack the same wallop today. Also, pre-AIDs sexual imagery and iconography just don't mean the same things anymore. What, at the time, was an exploration of the dubious healing powers of casual sex, now just seems a wallowing in dangerous practices.

 

[MagicaPractica]

Robin Williams - Live on Broadway. It's a couple years old but very good. I never realized he did so many sexual jokes. He ends with a bit on what men looking like when they're going down on a woman. But I love the bit on the guy inventing golf in Scotland, clearly drunk. "Fuck! Noooooo... I put the hole all the way down there. Fuck! Noooo.. there's EIGHTEEN holes." He also has some great Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld jokes.

 

[Aurora Black]

Spoilers for those who haven't seen the movie...

What I really don't get is this: Why on earth did she give him a handjob in the dance hall and then run away like he was a psycho killer/rapist? Was the handjob supposed to be her way of saying goodbye, and then she freaked out when he continued to follow her? And did he flip out on her on purpose so she could shoot him?

 

[Straight-8]

I saw a small quirky documentary recently: The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill. As a SF fan who likes documentaries I suppose the fact I really enjoyed this is no big surprise. But I think it would have a fairly broad appeal.

Soylent Green

Classic Sci-Fi oldie. Still entertaining.

 

[s4a]

I thought sb. sell DVD .

 

[MagicaPractica]

The original M*A*S*H* "Suicide is painless, it brings on many changes, and I can take or leave it if I please." I loved the TV show when I was growing up. I think Alan Alda played Hawkeye a little angrier than he is in the movie. Love Gary Burghoff. Glad he was carried over to the show.

 

[Selena_Kitt]

Million Dollar Baby... totally didn't end the way I expected at ALL!! Good, but wow.

I know. It was definitely a gut twister.

 

[kromen]

Season One of Freaks and Geeks. It was actually a good show, too bad they canceled it. I also checked out Final Destination 3. Believe me, didn't watch it for a good story line, just wanted to see the FX.

 

[AngeloMichael]

V For Vendetta. Just saw it. WOW! Excellent movie! Thought it was going to be wall to wall action but it was more philosophy and speculation and it really told an interesting story. Batman meets 1984, very cool.

 

[rgraham666]

I just watched V for Vendetta.

I loved it!

Teared up during a couple of scenes. One made me think of people I know here.

A hell of a good flick.

 

[AngeloMichael]

One made me think of people I know here.

Me too.

Yes, I thought some scenes became a bit too melodramtic, but the ones that reminded me of AHer's were done so well I thought and very touching!
