Soxy Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Watched the French film 8 Women with a couple people today.An interesting murder mystery, with some very odd songs, and equally odd lesbian scenes. It's sort of a nod to the old murder mystery genre especially the locked room (think J. Dickson Carr or Agatha Christie). Interesting, but the ending was a bit abrubt. Worth a rental if you like detective tales of yore. Also finished watching The Thorn Birds with my roommate (who's Jewish and asked at one point: Is a priest supposed to have sex with people?) yesterday. Classic but overacted and melodramatic. More fun with a bottle of wine and people that don't mind snide comments throughout the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxin' Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 I watched Anchorman for the second time the other night and thought it was hillarious. I don't know why I hated it the first time. Team America sucks. I couldn't sit through all of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwerty Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 5, 2005 -> 04:37 AM) Isn't that a follow up to Training Day? Not even close. It is a remake of the 1976 version. They were supposedly suppose to start on the second one but i don't knwo what is going on. Edited June 5, 2005 by qwerty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Rented "The Machinist". Pretty good. Odd as well, but I bought it. Christian Bale is awesome. He lost 60 lbs for this role and is unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerCaseRepublican Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I watched "The Testament of Dr. Mabuse" a few nights ago. Anybody who wants to see a good (yet old) thriller should give it a rent. Granted it is 2 hrs. and entirely in German. Fritz Lang did a fantastic job with the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosMediasBlancas Posted June 28, 2005 Author Share Posted June 28, 2005 Every once in a while, in a marriage, you have to 'take one for the team'. Last night was one of those nights. We went to see "Bewitched'.....that might very well be the worst movie I have ever seen. Ya ever had such a bad time somewhere that you actually become angry?

KipWellsFan Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I just saw Clerks for the first time tonight. It's really incredible how good the writing was when considering how low budget this is. Kevin Smith really is a genius writer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I finally saw Troy last night.. I'm not so into those kinds of movies, but I really enjoyed it. Also.. saw Hitch over the weekend.. Will Smith is hysterical and hugely underrated as an actor IMO. Kevin Smith had me LMAO also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
