Current Movies

“outta da park!!!!

”

“I thought Inception was great. One of Hollywood's biggest problems is the dumbing down of everything. This was a good thinker.”

“i just heard they're going to release all 6 star wars in 3D...i hope they don't jack it up...the first one comes out in 2013 and then 1 a year after that...that should be pretty good timing for my son, now 4, to enjoy the movies i loved as a kid”

“Saw the movie "RED" this past weekend and gave it two thumbs up. Suspend a little disbelief and it's very entertaining. Great cast.”

“I've heard it's pretty good. I might go catch this one.”

“I'm going to see Carlos this week. The English version will be released in Toronto next week, but I'm not waiting.”

“Carlos? Going to see the Spanish version?”

“Nope, French.”

“Is this the same Carlos the Jackal featured in the Borne books?”

“Wow, didn't realize he was a real person: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_the_Jackal”

“saw Skyline today.

it was...different.”

“looked kind of like independence day meets district 9.....which is kind of a good thing”

“it had the potential to be good.

and they did have a very, very low budget. the cgi wasn't at the omg,i'mgonnapissmypants level, but it wasn't so bad that i wanted to walk out either.


i thought the storyline was crap. lots of loose ends and weirdness. and a different ending would have been a good thing.”

“so if it had only been a good movie it would have been better?”

“LOL @ hyway.”

“Saw The Eagle this weekend. A pretty good war movie about a Roman soldier that goes to England to clear his father's name and find "The Golden Eagle", an important symbol of the Roman army that was lost when his father's entire unit was wiped out.”

“I saw the King's Speech and it's definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen.”

“I thought True Grit was a pretty solid western. My least favorite part was the girl's acting, though it seems like everyone else I talk to thought she was amazing.”

“like Meryl Streep - she is supposedly one of the best actresses of the universe but I think she is one of the worst - I think sometimes people confuse "I see them acting" with "good acting". Good acting should be acting you don't notice.”

“second that about kings speech...i didn't expect it to be so funny”

“Watching Catfish tonight, review to follow.

Thrifty, the previews of Eagle have parts of it look sci-fi like...whats up with that? Good costumes and fight scenes?

Historically accurate, or more of a sparta/apocalypto?”

“My son and I watched Secretariat this past weekend. Great movie.”

“Thrifty, the previews of Eagle have parts of it look sci-fi like...whats up with that? Good costumes and fight scenes?
not in the least...not sure where that comes from

Historically accurate, or more of a sparta/apocalypto?
it's based on a fictional novel...i'll admit, i'm not that up on my roman history so can't really speak to the accuracy, but it's not really an action film...concentrates more on the story, which is a good one”

“Sunday me and the kids did our movie night with Caveman. I remember the movie being funny, but it's slap-stickie stupid really. But the funniest thing is watching with 8, 10, and 12 yr olds, THAT'S hilarious.

Last week's was A Man Called Horse.

2 wks ago it was Starship Troopers.”

“yo ape whats up bud?”

“Well hello yankee buddy! Lawng time no see. You still have that piece of terra over near Franklin? Around these parts, damn Yanks are harder to R-U-N-N-O-F-T if they own a piece of the place.

Oh, Return of a Man Called Horse got here today. Be a good movie night for this weekend.”

“Rise of the Planet of the Apes

I liked it. I thought it was a decent story and didn't even mind the computer apes. Would liked to have seen the story continue further but I guess that's what sequels are for. It should have been titled "The Start of the Rise of the Planet of the Apes."”

“That's funny....the ad at the top as I wrote that was for HYWAY credit union.”

“Took my 10 year old to see "Contagion" last night.

We both really enjoyed it.

Not a good idea for a hypochondriac to see.”

“I hope it was better than "My Idiot Brother", the feel good movie of the year, that we went to see. It was mildly amusing at times.”

“We just picked up "Thor" on dvd. Laurel's enjoying the heck out of it.”

“Thor was awesome!”

“Hehe Rev, we took our kids to see Contagion last w/e. Everyone enjoyed it.”

“John Carter. ho hum.”

“He can jump though!”

“Several days ago we did movie night with THE MAN FROM EARTH. Pretty bad acting, zero action, a chattery-deep thinking type of movie. I'm glad I saw it, but I shore woulnd't recommend it to anyone.

Anyone ever seen it? The kids zoned out pretty quick, understandably so. What's really crazy about this movie tho is that it made 2 different lists of Top 25 Sci-Fi Movies of all time. Heh, no way!

Yesterday we did another movie night with HITCH-HIKERS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY. A little quacky, but we all enjoyed it pretty thoroughly, them Brits are some pretty funny ppl. We all agreed on 4 stars.”

“its not a movie, but "The IT Crowd" is a pretty dang funny Brit tv show available on netflix.”

“We PPV'ed Contagoin the other night. It was ...... Ok I guess. It just kindof fizzled out at the end, kinda weak.

Haven't seen the two you mentioned, Ape. Might have to try that hitchhiking one...”

“naked ape, thanks for all the fish :)
also. I knew it was the mice all along!!”

“Strat, HHGG is a great movie especially if you followed the books. Be ready for some ridiculousness.”

“LOL mapes, good'un. Ye on the mice.

Strat get HHGG, it's oddball no doubt, but I cain't see anyone who wouldn't find it enjoyable.

Hyway how the hell are ya!!?? Hey I just heard the other day that Franklin now has a Trail Days kind of thing too. April sometime they'd said. I'll check it out, being only like 20 miles from there. Hope yur good bro.”

“I'm doing ok, Ape. How are the rugrats doing?”

“42”

“Just saw Puss n Boots, not bad”

“LOL, oh yeah, "42".

Doing good hyway. Tuesday was a new experience for us. Went to play some songs at the local old folx home. The conversation afterwards was life touching. An incredible experience for sure.”

“You guys play good together”

“Tonight's movie night for the kiddies: Oh Brother, Where Art Thou.

kids loved it



Question: wife wants the kiddies to pick up a little religion. Truthfully we could be doing better, buuuuuut, the boss wants the kids to see Passion of the Christ for Easter. Uhh, do I recall that being torture porn?”

“I love 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou.' My son quoted lines from it when he was about 11.

Passion is pretty intense. Tell her 'Napoleon Dynomite' is religious.”
