Must love dogs-pretty good
Click-saw part and it made me cry
50 first Dates-pretty good
Monster In Law-VERY GOOD-you should rent it this weekend...or at least soon

I really didn't like the movie crash...i guess i'm the only one

You go girl. :flowers: Thanks!

I am a total ROMANCE-Head and so I didn't care too much for Crash either but I bought it based on reviews. Did the same thing with The Pink Panther and the lesson now is to PPV movies I am not sure about.

And I believe Monster-In-Law is good. I just tallied some movies I want and wiith my next Columbia House order all of those will be on the list. :yay:

I thought the first one was better. My biggest complaint though is that it is simply 2.5 hours of build-up to the next movie.

I thought the first one was better too but this was not the total dog most sequels are so I was happy. :lol: I agree most of it was a setup for the next one, especially the ending. But the next installment due out this year and I will definitely go see it if nothing else for the two male stars. :yum:

Pink Panther didn't have enough substance to it. I didn't like Steve Martin's accent. He was funny but in an unaware and serious way. The plot wasn't important enough IMO. Totally who cares. I will let you have that movie, been trying to give it away ever since I saw it.

Have you seen Silent Hill, I own it but it's still packaged because I won't watch it alone. :lmao:

I agree with all but the very last statement. Keira Knightley on the other hand...:yum:

And for the guys out there...she gets nekkid in Domino :yay:

I totally thought Geoffrey Rush (Capt. Barbosa) was sexy. :whistle:

:yeahthat: Even though he was uncredited in the film, there's no mistaking him. He's in the next one, too. :yay:

No nightmares if I watch it alone? I did well with The Village but Stir of Echoes. :nono:


I haven't seen Stir of Echoes, how is it? :popcorn:

Speaking of the Pink Panther - I absolutely adored Peter Sellers (rip), whose movies make me laugh my arse off. If you enjoy that brand of humour, I really suggest watching "What's New, Pussycat". It's an old movie and I actually found it in the classic comedy section, but I laughed for days.

I know someone posted Young Frankenstein; I forgot to mention that we watched the first half last night and will be watching the rest tonight.

I have to admit, I almost :bawl: when I saw Madeline Kahn and Peter Boyle...

I guess Marty Feldman has been gone too long for me to mourn... and wasn't as present as those mentioned above...

Looking forward to the next installment. Word has it Keith Richards is going to make a cameo...
Saw a quick snippet from 3 when they find Jack. I'd like to find Jack. :drool:

Is that the one with Kevin Bacon? If so, it isn't bad to watch.

Pulse...just rented it a week ago and it is just :twitch:

It's creepy like Poltergeist creepy. Kevin Bacon goes through a mental trip too like Jacob's Ladder mental trip. :twitch: It's very slow and quiet too. The scene takes place in a town that you wouldn't want to live in and the people living there keep deep dark secrets. :shocking:


Did you see this >>Stir Of Echoes imdb
