Good thread, goodnelly! Now I am also interested. Although any suggestions for movies for me would be something to rent. Any good ones? I can't go to the theaters. Too poor! But I can rent one!

To rent, I would like El Cantante because of my love for salsa music...Marc Anthony in it plays Hector Lavoe in the 1970's.
Also to rent, License to Wed with Robin Williams...very funny and cute!

License to Wed? Robin Williams? Now that sounds like my kind of movie! Thanks, volley! I'll see if I can dig up some money to put with my $1.43 I got from the bank today and rent it tomorrow!

hubby bought the transformers movie. I thought it was pretty good. I have heard that disturbia (sp??) was pretty good also. Ghost rider was good too.
When the dvd's come out we ask around to see what others thought about them, then if we think we would like it we buy it (daughter works at walmart so we get a discount ) We don't go to the movies we just rent or buy them.

Transformers was AWESOME! I wasn't too pleased about some aspects of the movie but over all it was amazing. It stayed in the theaters here until the DVD was released.
Resident Evil - was dissapointing in the end but I still enjoyed the move as a whole. I am a big fan.
I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. Best comedy all summer.
Stardust- Best adult fairy tale movie ever. I can't remeber the last one that I thought was this good.. Legends? w/Tom Cruise. (Lord of The Rings falls in a different catagory)
Bourne Ultimatum: Best Action movie. Best in the series.
I want to go see American Ganster, Dan in Real Life, Beowolf, Martian Child, The Golden Compass, Lars and The Real Girl. I have another list for movies next year. I love going to the show.

FYI, I remember being in chat with you one night and learning the were the movie queen!
My husband took our boy to see Transformers..He enjoyed it, but I know exactly what aspects you weren't pleased with, FYI, and I agree 100%.
1408 was a wonderful thriller. Another good one..Mr. Brooks.

i simply love going to the movies. It is one of my obsessions and I make sure to go see each one I think I will enjoy. One of the movies I am wating for next year is I am Legend! I haven't seen too much on it but what I have seen has captured my attention.
I think next year is going to be a fantastic movie year.

A quick word of advice. Never read the book before going to ther movie. It is just too dissapointing.

as an after thought post I myself have often read the book first and it has been so much better than the subsequent movie!--I think all should compare original story to the afterwards very well compensated creation--but creativity should never be a disappointment !! false expectations are in my opinions the prelude to disappointment!

Oh. I forgot. My friend let me borrow The Notebook. OMG. I was sooooooooooooo depressed afterward, but it was the best movie. Oh. I just sat there for 15 minutes staring at a blank screen when it was over. OMG. But it was awesome.

FYI, yes, but if the movie is a mystery, it will be a "spoiler" for reading the book. Some movies are very different from the book though. In fact, most seem to be.
