Movie Thread
Rental, big screen, TV, on cable and so forth.............what have you seen, what do you recommend?
.................................................. ................ This weekend I happened to rent one of the best movies I've seen in a while. Very off-beat and on a disturbing topic, not for everyone. Excellent cast and characters. A comedy which will make you cry, very deep and moving. Running with Scissors http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/runningwithscissors/ Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_with_Scissors_(film) Quote:

As Good As It Gets. Jack Nicholson 1997. Always makes me feel Good.
One of Jack´s lines describing a typical woman: "I think of a man - and then take away reason and accountability."

+1 on Livi's.
Tom Cruise in Collateral was fantastic. Meet the Fokkers. The Birdcage. Night at the Museum. (kid friendly and cute). Dodgeball.

I can't remember the director, but I saw a B movie called "French Maids". I know it sounds like porn. It wasn't. I mean, yeah, it did have some nudity and lez action, but it was art. Yeah, art. Seriously, it wasn't porn. Actually kind of a messed up movie.
Also check out Deathstalker II, if you can find it. Tongue-in-cheek b-movie that makes fun of itself relentlessly and truly should be labeled comedy. |

Saw "No Country for Old Men" this weekend. Typical Coen brothers and quite interesting...don't go if you like nice, neat endings.
"Fido" is a quirky take on zombie films. "Infernal Affairs" should not be missed. Makes "The Departed" look like a bad copy. Which it was. |
