Both were rather enjoyable.

Weekend Pass, a lame 1984 movie about a group of sailors taking their 72 hours of liberty in LA.

Public Enimies with Johny Depp. a really good gangster film, and one of Depp's better performances. he really gets into his character. and i actually liked Christian Bale in this as well.

also, i watched Austin Powers in Goldmember on tv last night as well

I checked out Public Enemies as well. Being a big John Dillinger fan, I really enjoyed it. Depp actually emulates Dilliger perfectly, and the movie really pushes historical accuracy.

My one gripe is I think a lot of the gun fight/robbery scenes could have been cut down. There were a number of scenes that were close to 20 minutes long that could have been done in 5 and not lost anything.

Watching The Evil Bong 2: King Bong. as I type. What's sad is this is a squeal which means Evil Bong 1 with Tommy Chong was good enough (or at least popular or cult classic enough) to warrant a squeal.

oh totally i agree. and there also could've been more back story for Dillinger as well, which is what i kind of expected.

i just wish i could remember the name of the one song that was played a few times through out the movie, it was really good

Just watched "My Best Friend Girl" with my best friends girl...

Public Enemies was actually filmed not too far from where I live in WI.

I went to the location before they even started shooting for the film, and it was completely overhauled.

One of my uncles friends actually has a car that is in the movie, not sure which one, but pretty cool...

Dragonball Evolution. It was so awesome. I'm not even being sarcastic. This is the Street Fighter of its generation, and I fully mean that as a compliment.

The Unborn: typical horror trype juist felt like a bunch of other movies thrown together.

Clipping Adam: Kevin Sorbo was a priest. Pretty good family film.

Watching Flying by ATM, which as a bit part played by Judith Hoag.

Finally saw "The Simpson Movie", and realized why I put it off so long.

Then we watched "What Happens in Vegas"...cheesy romantic comedy.

Howl's Moving Castle

For the most part, they were engaging movies.

Saw Public Enemies last night. Good movie. Christian Bale seemed more comfortable in this role to me than he did in TDK.

PS, don't know about your theaters, but the sound editing in this movie was perfect. The gunshots sounded real!

Transformers 2, it sucked except for the CGI. Optimus and Jetfire rule.
