June 23, 201214 yr Ahh, Tim Roth...he either picks THE BEST scripts, or THE WORST scripts. I'll have to check this one out and see what I think. Thanks, TTC! I sincerely hope you like it! I thought it was a gem.
June 25, 201214 yr Author I've lost interest in seeing movies as there seem to be so few quality movies anymore. However, if you tell me there's a documentary I'm already half-way there before I even know what it is. My son and I saw Ice-T's new documentary "Something from Nothing: Art of Rap" and it was really good. I think those who say they can't stand rap should check it out just to learn about it and maybe appreciate the art form a bit more. Caught all of these yet? http://bluegrasspreps.com/bluegrasspreps-coms-break/best-movies-no-217805-page2.html#post4090557
June 25, 201214 yr Author Also, if you like documentaries, National Geographic has a ton of theirs streaming on Netflix. They're generally about 45 minutes in length, so they're great to watch when you're just trying to waste a little time. Virtually every topic you can imagine.
June 26, 201214 yr Drive.... was odd and pretty much sucked. Thank you! I thought I was the only one who just didn't get it.
June 26, 201214 yr Drive.... was odd and pretty much sucked. Thank you! I thought I was the only one who just didn't get it. Agreed, it was almost like a mainstream Indy movie. It placed a lot of emphasis on being awkward.
June 26, 201214 yr Thank you! I thought I was the only one who just didn't get it. I hated Drive .. I still don't understand all the accolades.
June 27, 201214 yr There are a few I haven't seen that I want to see. Without question, The Dark Knight Rises is at the top of the list. But also wanting to see that finding a friend/end of the world movie with Steve Carell. Was headed to see The Raven, only to find out it was already gone. Agree with Clizzy (God help me that I'm agreeing with him again :lol:) that the quality of movies do not seem to be very strong as of late. Took my wife to see that this evening. I enjoyed it, but the trailer makes it seem like it would be more of a comedy. It does have comedic moments but it is more of a drama. I'd say it is very similar to "Dan in Real Life" in that manner. Personally, I have enjoyed Carrell's serious roles much more than his comedic roles, with perhaps an exception for "40 year old virgin".
July 10, 201214 yr This should be arriving at my house from Netflix either today or tomorrow. I'm pretty interested to see how it is... What did you think of the movie?
July 10, 201214 yr Watched 21 Jump Street a couple of weeks ago and I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. The movie was hilarious and they even made fun of themselves and the fact that Hollywood keeps doing remakes of old material, thought it was a great movie.
July 10, 201214 yr I picked up Pirate Radio from the library the other day and while I know it didn't review very well I thought it was very funny. I'm a sucker for Phillip Seymuor Hoffman.
July 10, 201214 yr Author What did you think of the movie? I thought it was really dag-gone solid! The cast was honestly incredible...and I can't get over not hearing anything about it previous to like 3 months ago. I'd be interested to hear how much of it is historically accurate.

I'd be interested to hear how much of it is historically accurate. That is pretty much exactly what I thought. I Would have never even heard of it if not for my Netflix subscription.
August 28, 201214 yr Author Looking forward to seeing this one..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQaScjiWDyY
