Whats the latest movie you have seen? Any recommendation for this week?


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! :D

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! :lol:

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 :wink: ) 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.

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.

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.

Lawstudent, I used to always read books before going to the movies. I watch some movie previews several months in advance, sometimes even a year in advance. I used to get the book first and I always ended up dissapointed in the movie.

They can't always put everything in t he movies and I guess that's why I usualy end up dissapointed.

FYI, I know what you mean. I've seen a great deal of movies after having read the book (excluding classics).

Take the movie "Independence Day". To all SciFi fans it's an obvious rip off of Arthur C. Clarke's late 1950s novel "Childhoods End". It isn't exactly the same, but near enough, but Clarke isn't credited at all. (A British science fiction writer, who first described communication satellites in the late 1940s.) Still, it was a very entertaining movie. One of the movies I've seen which comes closest to the book is "Misery" by Stephen King, I think. If I remember, the only difference is that she cuts off both feet in the book, instead of breaking them in the movie.

I next to never go to the movies. Last time was when I lost a bet and had to go see Dukes of Hazard, before that was Barnyard....so as you can see, notmuch of a movie goer....home alone with #2 son who is 23 so we went to American Gangster...his pick...not too bad. A little long for me and slow at times but it was entertaining...
