Dleg 4,032 Report post Posted December 30, 2010 Sorry for creating a new one ... but the old one is so far off the page, I can't bother looking for it. I saw "True Grit" last night. I loved every minute of it. It was fantastic. Jeff Bridges is not John Wayne, but then again he is a far better actor than John Wayne was, who pretty much played every character as John Wayne. Bridges transformed himself into Rooster Cogburn, a drunk, disheveled, and completely believable character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kevo_55 1,657 Report post Posted December 30, 2010 I saw Tron: Legacy in an IMAX 3d last weekend. Maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the movie was actually in 3d which sucked. The movie as a whole pretty much blew as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally wouldn't have been happy if I bought the Blu-Ray. It would be a really good Netflix rental though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't like science fiction much and I like Frisbees even less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The $8/month Netflix is the best thing ever. Use it on the Wii, Xbox 360, iPhone, laptop... was great to be able to retreat to the guest room at my in-laws and catch a good movie over their WiFi.

I have been working a ton of late nights. Coming in at 8pm leaving around 2am. I actually finished The Dead Zone ( series used to be on a while back, Law and Order CI Season 1-8, and SVU the first 2 or 3 seasons. I just put it on my 2nd monitor and go to work. I wish Netflix had the UNit available for streaming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cement 647 Report post Posted December 31, 2010 we love the netflix. I recently bought the roku device so I can stream into the bib TV since we don't have the modern gaming devices. my kids are retro gamers... Just saw the new Harry Potter. It was interesting if you have read the book, but if not.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Road Guy 9,666 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 the delay on streaming netflix is getting to me, but I am figuring once I get in the "cycle" it wont be a big deal, I really want to see the last resident evil movie, so I am trying to wait it out and not go buy it...

Dleg 4,032 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 I got "The Pacific' on bluray for Christmas, and I am really looking forward to watching it. The only problem is that our bluray player is in the living room, and it seems like I can never get time away from kids in there. I am assuming that's not the best show for kids....

MA_PE 2,695 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 Speaking of nerd movies, I watched Fanboys on cable last night. All in all it wasn't a bad flick. I thought the situational Star Wars parallels (like the trash room) were pretty funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supe 5,684 Report post Posted January 3, 2011 I watched The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus the other night, and really liked it. I'm fairly certain if I were tripping on acid or any sort of hallucinogen, it would only get better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
