True, but if we do that with everything. Our brains will weaken and we tolerate poorer films. You will never see my brain disengage or be washed over by Forrest Gump. That's for Coronation Street and I don't watch any of that dribble.Quote:

I don't care really. Chaplin was good at what he did and to boot was a moral man. Fields I will come to in time.Quote:

Decent enough I guess....now next in my Netflix queue 'Vampyres' a tale of love and blood featuring 2 bisexual lady vampires ;)
'Cabin In The Woods' a BRILLIANT movie....not all that scary, but funny and really takes the piss out of the horror genre.
I just watch The Lorax.. It's fun and hilarious!
Fuck off... Edward Norton is different class in everything.Quote:

Saturday night after watching MOTD, I settle down to watch and action movie something along the lines of 'The Book of Eli' or something like that. Machine Gun Preacher .... is nothing like that. Really intense and more of a drama than an action movie. My blunder, I shouldn't add films on to lovefilm without reading a description.
Well there are just so many action movies to choose from man...narrow the search down a bit and I may be of some help.Quote:

Sorry Lyle...I was just bemoaning the fact that 'Machine Gun Preacher' wasn't really an action movie. You're right there are plenty to choose from...I've probably got 50+ in my own dvd collection.Quote:

debbie does dallas :cool:
I saw 2 1980's horror movies recently 'The Unnameable' and 'The Burning' both were pretty funny, but 'The Burning' was great because Jason Alexander (George Costanza from Seinfeld) plays a teenage camp counsler and he's got a full head of hair and it's just ridiculous looking.
This thread is too big to see whether or not certain films have already been mentioned.
Last night I watched - Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father.
Brilliant although upsetting. If you like documentary films with a twist, I recommend it.
A really good foreign film I watched recently was "A Prophet". Set in a french prison, about a young guys transformation while in there.
Also watched Layer Cake which wasn't too bad.
Most mainstream box office movies have just gotten too predictable for me lately, so searching out different venues have found these 2 to be pretty good.
