I think he looks the part, should be a good fit. Of course, he's no Ben Affleck.

I saw Chintatown for the first time this weekend. Pretty dang good movie.

Red Lights: Worst DeNiro movie ever. May be Sigourney Weaver's worst movie ever. Cilian Murphy's worst movie ever. Dreadful.

Not impressed by the Great Gatsby. I'm not a fan of modern music and technology in a historical context. I'm sorry, but the scene of the convertible on the Queensboro bridge with the guy and ladies standing up dancing (think rap video style) to actual rap music for a film set in the 20's is just too much. Call it artistic license or whatever you want, I call it crap.

^That SJ Duesenberg was not appropriate for the time frame, either. Nor was that Auburn.

Took the kids to see wolverine yesterday (rained all day in atlanta). I never saw xmen, but this movie was worth watching, typical over the top sci-fy but all in all, it will be on rental soon so I would recommend it.. There is also lots of cute Asian girls in boots and mini skirts, which adds depth to any movie +1

I need to watch this, if only to get the full context of the "My sister! *slap* My daughter! *slap* My sister and my daughter!" scene that everyone references.

my daughter only wants to see movies for important cultural references such as this

I wish people came with a "I have seen the following movies" list, so I knew what to expect when I randomly quoted movies. For instance, I recently quoted Bad Boys and my husband thought I had gone racist.

I think everyone has at least one or two movies that they haven't seen, that when their friends find out are promptly called out as "anti-American" for not having seen them. A couple of mine: Caddyshack, Godfather (and I own the trilogy on DVD).

 

[csb]

I've never seen Bambi, The Godfather, or any of the Batman movies in their entirety.

I haven't ever seem the godfather movies, my grandfather wa Italian (FOB) so it's offensive to me...

J/k about the offensive part, but I have tried to get into that movie but I just can't ever seem to put the time into it...

I also quote a lot of movies but I try and not assume people are squares just since they don't know what the hell I am talking about (which is often)

 

[Dexman PE PMP]

they don't know what the hell I am talking about (which is often)

Have you tried not talking with the southern accent?

I finally saw Sharknado! I missed a solid 20 minutes of it, but I don't think any crucial plot points happened during that time.

I don't even have to know which 20 minutes you missed in order to agree.

 

[Sapper PE LS]

I don't even have to know that movie to agree with, based on the title alone.

 

[Capt Worley PE]

I have the Godfather trilogy on tape, but have never watched it.

 

[mudpuppy]

I rarely watch movies, so a lot of the one-liners go over my head here and at work. Oh well.

I can't believe you guys haven't seen Godfather though! It's a classic.

If you want some mind numbing laugh out loud comedy rent project x, about some nerds that throw a party that's gets out of hand.. Have to say I haven't laughed out loud at a movie I rented on a whim in a long time...

Midgets locked in an oven, sports cars in the pool, couple hundred kids on ecstasy , neighbors dads joining in the party, fat kid jumping off the roof,helicopters... It's got it all

Basically Goonies for the 2010 generation...
