You can tell me if I remembered correctly...I'm not particularly perceptive and tend to nod off sometimes if the movie is dragging, but this one held my attention. I've always liked sci-fi and it was fun to compare this one to the 70's version. I thought the scenes of deserted NYC were pretty cool, as was the portrayal of the mutated humans- basically humans with rabies...

Smile Watched it last night

Untraceable

Starring Diane Lane, about an FBI agent that investigates internet crime.

Pretty entertaining. That's what I want from my movie rentals. Entertainment.

After a hard week, the wife and I like to order a pizza and sit down in the 70salesguy Colossal Manor Home Theatre and "be entertained".

Of course, I send the butler up to the local Bi-Lo grocery store to get a movie from the DVD Xpress machine for .99!

The Golden Compass
Wasn't bad if you like fantasy.
I could see why they were making such a big fuss about.
At first i didn't really understand.
To me I look at it as a good old fantasy movie.
Kinda like Star dust or Eragon.

I caught the last half hour of "The Third Man" ( from the big wheel and the "cuckoo clock" speech) this morning on TCM.

Wow!! I gotta see the whole thing. Breathtaking cinematography and film noir, plus Orson Welles fleeing through the sewers of Vienna; can't beat that with a stick.

+1 a great movie and Joseph Cotten did a great job as well.

I just finished watching "An Ideal Husband", originally an Oscar Wilde play.

Forbidden Planet

Excellent movie, looks great restored and in wide screen.

There needs to be a Blu Ray release of this, it was already on HD.

Smile Who knew?

The Other Boleyn Girl on Friday night. Pretty good if you like history, stars Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johanssen. I thought it was done well.

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?

This came on tv and we watched it - again. This is such a hysterical movie. The Coen Brothers write some great one liners in this one. Plus, you can't beat the Soggy Bottom Boys, live and in concert!

ditto here. not bad, definitely not the best. too @#$% much overuse of CGI and greenscreening led to a few rather artificial looking scenes. sound was pretty good; they actually laid off of the excessive THUMP and BUMP with this movie. gotta give lucas respect for that in sum, they don't make movies like they used to, and i needed a good Anime afterwards...
