I think there needs to be a small white truck parked next to the scene of the accident, watching but not participating.

How was the crowd for The Lovely Bones?

That's how I felt when I saw Gangs of New York, followed closely by City of God. DDL is fantastic in Gangs, but the movie didn't do much for me. City Of God though, that's the real thing.     I don

Silver Linings playbook

 

I really liked it, despite some shortcomings.

 

The two leads were fantastic. I felt , on the whole, like it was trying to be a serious movie, and for the most part it succeeded, but there were elements of regular, cookie-cutter romantic comedies that kept creeping into the script that made it feel cheap somehow. For instance, the therapist becoming a recurring character that kept showing up at every location. I also disliked the whole football-dance competition "parlay". There were a lot of ways to make the dance scene a triumphant and defining moment in the film without attaching a score to it. Still though, I definitely liked it a lot. Jennifer lawrence is awesome.

Got a Barnes & Noble gift card for xmas. Bought a book. They sent me 3 copies and charged me for the two extras. I had to wait until I got them and send them back before they refunded my money.

 

Last week they sent me a $50 e gift card. Bought The Hobbit on Blu Ray and Wreck it Ralph.

Saw The Croods on the weekend with my son (He loved it of course). A lot of creativity went in creating the different species they came up and what not but I just couldn't get past Nicolas Cage's voice over for being a badass caveman. His voice is too dull & boring for the character.

 

The Hobbit on Blu-ray is awesome by the way. I got much more in to the story at home than I did in the theater (3D is too distracting to me), not to mention I have no desire to pick up an extended version down the road for it. Maybe when all 3 get released at some point.

100% agree. I think it looked amazing and had the best 3d of any movie I've seen so far, but Nic Cage was terrible.

Yeah, I enjoyed the Croods, but Nic Cage was soooooooo distracting.

 

I generally don't like this trend of hiring recognizable actors for voice work, but Cage has a very distinct voice and cadence that jumps out at you.

You need to buy those blu-ray/dvd/digital copy combo packs.

 

Haha, thanks. It is a combo pack, but I still can't lay in bed and watch it on my PS3. I guess I could sit at the computer and watch it there.

Saw Oblivion.

 

Probably the best made movie about a horrible story ever made.

 

Just awful the story line, but the movie itself was really well made.

 

So see it in the theaters quick
