Last night we watched Little Children. Tonight, we have The Good Shepherd.

I kind of dozed off for a while during The Good Shepherd.

Kinky Boots

Interesting story about a shoe factory in Northampton England that switches from making wingtip brogues for men to spikey high heels for transvestites and cross dressers to avoid going out of business. Played at the International Film Fest here in PDX last year. Very well done.

I think it would have been interesting had it been the Brooks factory.

The Shield-Season 5, yep its out already folks, just got it out of my mailbox before it even hit the TV yet :)

looks like its gonna be a good one

Whale Rider
Mutiny On The Bounty

I kind of dozed off for a while during The Good Shepherd.


I thought that was still in theatres.

Mutiny On The Bounty


Gee, which version?

Gee, which version?


Brando, Howard. I haven't seen Laughton/Gable in years, and have seen Gibson/Hopkins once in the theater.

Michael Mann's 1981 "Thief". Although way too many elements were repeated in his 1995 film "Heat" to my thinking, somewhat sullying both films it still is a staggeringly thrilling experience.

This film also seems to be one of those high quality "buried by time overshadowed in it's time" films which at my suggestion evokes blank stares and the question "And who was in that"?

Whale Rider
That film made my cry buckets.

I thought that was still in theatres.

It is. We watched an academy screener dvd.

babel
alpha dog

walker texas ranger season 2:)

babel

excellent film...

to be honest im not watching anything till the departed comes out tuesday. though i watched the maltese falcon the other night.

As You Like It- from the BBC series

Watched Little Miss Sunshine last night. Good stuff.

Watched JackAss 2 down right WRONG the stuff they do in that movie.

I'll be watching Venus with Peter O'Toole later tonight. I have no idea what the film is about. :D

edit: ok, I fell asleep during the film so I have no idea what it was about.

A Canterbury Tale

rocky dvd box set. currently on II

I reckon what me and my gal was a watchin' last night while eatin' biscuits 'n mustard and french fried 'taters was a little 'ol film by the name of "Sling Blade".


Uuuh hmm. A'ight den. Uuuh hmm. I reckon.

Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut) | Ridley Scott

IMO, one of the best epics ever made. Maybe even the best. It rocks.

Flags of our Fathers...not a bad flick. I'm looking forward to seeing Letters From Iwo Jima now.

Smokin Aces
The Departed
The Machine
Proud --2004

Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut) | Ridley Scott

IMO, one of the best epics ever made. Maybe even the best. It rocks.

There's also Dr. Zhivago, Ben Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, and The Last Emperor DC.

The Last Emperor is just okay. Ben Hur is pretty good. I haven't seen Dr. Zhivago or Lawrence, although I've been meaning to.

The Devil Wears Prada.

Not something I'd normally watch but it was ok - its worth a look.

Black Dahlia - Brian de Palma
Hollywoodland - Allen Coulter

Two period LA noir pieces, the first a cop thriller / murder mystery / love triangle set in 1947, the second is the story of a private detective investigating the suicide (?) of George Reeves, who played the original TV Superman. Both well done.

Black Dahlia...besides the eye candy of the production values..not as good as LA confidential or The Two Jakes.

Or Chinatown for that matter.

Lawrence is the best of the bunch. I've seen it many many times, but the best was when a local movie theather screened it in 1989.

I've got it in my Netflix cue now. Should look good on the 50" plasma too.

Recently

I finally finised all the BSG Dvd's

Cars (very good)
Miami Vice (the movie - not so good)

Alien 3
Alien Resurrection

I was prepared to be underwhelmed and even dissappointed, but these turned out to be entertaining enough. Neither could come close in a critical comparison to the first two.

Band of Brothers.

I have it, but haven't watched it yet.

Office Space is one of my favorite movies.

We watched a new Japanese film on dvd, Ash1ta no Kioku (Memories of Tomorrow), starring Ken Watanabe. A very moving film about a family's struggle with Ahlzeimer's disease.

For the title I had to substitute a 1 for an i.

I just thought you were 1337. :D

October Sky & Flushed Away, completly differend movies, both good in their own right.

Talladega Nights, The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

Not to shabby, and i dont like Nascar or Will Ferrel.

Best part of the DVD were the extras, in particular the potty mouth outtakes with the 2 kids, Walker and Texas Ranger.

We're watching Babel this evening. I already saw this film a few months ago. Thank you. :)

More Herzog over the weekend.

Fitzcaraldo.

Amazing movie. No special effects in it. All real!

Hannibal Rising

if your a Hannibal fan see it, its worth it

The End of Suburbia.
Good documentary. If you've read Kunstler's book, "The Long Emergency", this feels almost like a companion piece. As a matter of fact, Kunstler gets a lot of face time in the documentary. Also, you must watch the two bonus extras. They're documentaries from the 1950's and are both kind of creepy and laugh out loud funny.

World's Fastest Indian with Sir A Hopkins. GREAT movie, a real sleeper.

The Contract---Morgan Freeman's latest, unreleased in the US as of yet, decent action adventure movie

Idiocracy
The Last Kiss
13 Tzameti
Down in the Valley

The Bridge Over the River Kwai.

I didn't like it much the first time I saw it, but after watching it again i'm convinced its one of the best movie's i've ever seen. The hype probably killed it for me the first time.
