Watched The Prairie Home Companion. Interesting. I love that some of the original musicians are in it. Plus the cast is mind-blowing. But there were parts that felt a bit forced. But it did feel very true to the stage. It felt very nostalgic.

Just finished watching 'Pink Floyd - The Wall'

It was an awesome film. i liked how the music progressed and told the story, unlike other musicals (and yes, this film is technically a musical) which just have the songs be there for the sake pf being there.

It's really one of those movies that you have to sit down and concentrate while watching. There is a lot to take in and understand.

I really liked the atmosphere it has, very moody. It's just a shame that the film is technically a box office failure.

Her - a very interesting movie and at parts funny. This kind of sci-fi is just my cup of tea.

Over the Top 3.5/6

The acting is a bit OTT (get it ) and the kid is a little annoying. I kinda wanted more than I was served , so to speak.

Kickboxer 4/6

JCs brother gets his a** kicked in a thai boxing match and JC swears revenge......it ain't gonna be easy , first he has to go thru rigorous training.

Last Stand 4/6

The Governator as a sheriff in a border town.

I got to say I was pleasantly surprised with this one. I really did like it. Love it? No, but it was fairly entertaining.

Spoiler:
I loved how he drug the escaped convict in with the beat to hell fancy sports car that belonged to the douche... Just great.


Recently watched Star Wars Episode II again. We've been re-collecting the Star Wars movies on DVD. Had both the original Trilogy and the new Trilogy on the DVD boxed sets, but managed to lose both during one of our moves. Swearing that I wouldn't buy replacements since I knew they'd turn up eventually I finally broke down after 2 1/2 years of looking.... I've repurchased Episode 1, 4, 5, 6 and just found 2 at Big Lots. Now that we've got the original Trilogy completed again- guess what we found in a closet.... That's right! The original trilogy box set. Can't find the 1-3 Trilogy box set yet, but I'm sure we will after I finally repurchase Episode 3, lol.

Anyhoo, I had forgotten how funny (at least to me, ) Anakin's line is where Dooku slams him against a wall and he comes back for more to save Obi Wan's butt and Dooku says "Very brave of you, but I would have thought you would have learned your lesson" Anakin says "I'm a slow learner".... IDK, it just is funny to me, since there is very little comic relief I just really appreciate that line.

Also recently watched Spies Like Us. The old classic Dan Akroyd, Chevy Chase comedy.

It was a good solid movie. Joaquin Phoenix really did a good job. The idea of dating an OS system still trips me out...

I think that is a totally believable scenario and future.

The Forbidden Kingdom with Jackie Chan & Jet Li. I liked it, not my favorite Chan movie, but I really like Li in this one. Hadn't seen it in a while.

My husband saw it on BluRay at Walmart the other day and I had to tell him not to buy it since I was pretty sure we had it at home on DVD. I guess that's how you know you have to many movies... You start to buy them again, lol.

The last movie I saw was Devil's Due. I was disappointed. The trailer looked promising, but by the end of the movie I was just counting down time for the movie to be over.

The movie I saw before that was Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones. I wasn't expecting much, but I actually enjoyed it!

Just watched Take This Waltz.
Started off slow, but eventually evolved into a really thoughtful pic.

The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy - Wonderfully wacky, absurdly hysterical and so very British. Great cast too. What's not to love? 10/10.
