I am Legend.

3 and 5 yr olds decided they wanted to watch it too. 3yr old only lasted until the first *yucky monster* and then he was out of there. 5yr old wanted to know what the yucky monster's names were...I named them Bob.

So, now all he talks about is "Master Bob", the "Bob Dogs" and the "Goey Bobs".

Its amusing to me because no one else knows wtf he is talking about.

Great movie. Love the car!!

Big Fish was great!

I also watched Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. That has got to be one of the funniest movies ever made.
I loved that film. I like all the askewniverse movies. Dogma was on tv the other night.

I had totally forgotten he was in that.

What casting director in their right might thought he'd be a good choice for a detective role? Maybe they were intending to play up the "brilliant but weird" side of him a lot more than they eventually did.

his role that always stays with me is the Bug Man from Men in Black.

he's great as that detective, though.

The Bucket List. Fan-fucking-tastic.

Heartbreak Kid. Funny as hell. Not for little ones.

The new Rambo and Fools Gold, eh.

We've had Stranger Than Fiction sitting on the counter since January and No Country for Old Men since March, according to Netflix. You wouldn't think it would be that hard to nail down a 2-hour block to watch one sometime...

Ah, you're thinking of the "What DVD's are we Watching Collect Dust?" thread.

The Bank Job--Based on a true story! Intriguing how all the pieces fit so well together; I doubt it went down exactly like that, but it was a fun film to watch anyway (and Jason Statham is always nice to look at). Watch out for the extremely brief Mick Jagger cameo.

Grandma's Boy--I saw this on TV this past weekend, but it's available on DVD of course. Hilarious stoner movie, but can be watched while on the verge of heatstroke, with equally enjoyable results.

Hostel - Gruesome. Bloody. Kept me riveted though.

The Cave - aliens underwater. Good.

Peaceful Warrior - slowto start but a good rental

Batman Begins - gotta love the bat! Prepping for 'Dark Knight'.

Bonus bought me a new 40" LCD HDTV. Had to make it a movie weekend.

Meh, I lent my Aussie boss Hot Fuzz nearly a month ago.
She admitted she watched half of it last night and will watch the other half tonight.

Am tempted to tell her to keep it and I'll get the special edition for myself, but if she can switch it off halfway through I'll be wasting my money!

She's going to lend me a Kath & Kim dvd (I've only caught random episodes) and a Summer Heights dvd (new on BBC3). In return I might lend her The League of Gentlemen. Hmmmm, that's three series, two live shows a film and a Christmas special. I might buy and then lend her Benidorm instead!

recently:

The Bucket List -- Excellent. Messrs Freeman and Nicholson are masters at their craft.

Beowulf -- Boring story, but interesting execution. I strongly recommend the "Making of..." featurette for the technically inclined.

Airplane! -- STILL funny as hell. SonofV enjoyed it.

The Other Boleyn Girl -- Interesting story, and I really enjoyed the cinematography. Tink says there were considerable deviations from the book. The extras on this disc are also recommended.

Mr Magorium's Wonderous Emporium -- Kind of predictable, but enjoyable. The young boy, Eric, steals the show.
