movies you watched today

[carole]

just watched Fools Gold, disappointing really, again i fell asleep, i am sick right now, but i think i still would have, it just did not keep my interest long enough, it was ok i guess.

Anne of the Thousand Days w/Genevieve Bujold and Richard Burton. I wanted to compare their account of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn to other movies and books. Richard Burton made me laugh; he's so dramatic. He'd wrinkle up his nose as though he was going to sneeze and then he spit out his words as though they tasted bad. It was a stormy night, though, so it was a good pasttime.

I finally got around to renting and watching Balto today as I've never seen it. I loved it.

I just finished watching Como Agua Por Chocolate. (Like Water For Chocolate)
I liked it a lot. Usually, when I like a movie, I have two reactions, I either watch it right over again, or I sit there and think about it. This one is the second. I knew nothing about it coming into it, my parents rented it and so I decided to watch it. My mom told me she originally got the book because she liked the cover, but it turned out to be one of the best books she had ever read.
It turned out to be very much like Romeo and Juliet at the end, which I wasn't expecting, but I should have guessed from the way they did the beginning.

If you've never heard of it, it's about Tita, a young woman living on a ranch in Mexico during the time of the revolution with her two sisters, mother, and maids. She is destined to never marry because she is the youngest daughter, she must take care of her mother for the rest of her life. Enter Pedro, it's love at first sight, but her mother will never allow it. I won't tell you any more since I don't want to give away the whole plot before you watch it.


Argh, I forgot that I watched Jersey Girl last night on TNT. I remember not being thrilled with it at all when I saw the trailer, but I was flipping channels and I caught the very beginning, so I watched, and I liked it.

Now I'm about to watch Firefly for the billionth time. I love it too much, it seems to just get better every time. Joss is Boss.

I watched Vantage Point last night. I thought it was a really good movie--I watched it with my mom though and she didn't like how it went back and forth so much..you know how it went to the beginning several times and showed what happened to each of the people..

I also saw 10,000 BC I loved it..it was a sweet/sad story.. I cried at the end...

[Suki Wingy]

I've been wanting to see 10,000 BC, I'm glad you liked it.

I saw Kung Fu Panda, Wall-E and Wanted recently..

Kung Fu Panda:
SO incredibly funny! I normally don't like animated movies but it was a good laugh!

Wall-E:
The movie was really cute.. very funny and a simple love story behind it too.

Wanted:
I LOVED THIS MOVIE!! It's possibly my new favorite movie. Tons of action, awesome visual effects, gore and I actually really enjoyed the storyline.

Wall-E:
The movie was really cute.. very funny and a simple love story behind it too.

I thought this movie was beautiful! Nice little warning for us, too, I thought. It's amazing how they can animate a character like Wall-E and make him so endearing!

No joke. I am a huge Firefly fan. Did you watch the show or Serenity, the movie? I was just thinking of having a Firefly watching party with a friend this week.

That night I watched Shindig. I wanted to see Mal duel, as I'm in fencing class now.
I was introduced to it by my parents, who rented Serenity, and then I loved it so we started getting Firefly from Blockbuster Online. I found the whole season for $20 at Target a little over a year ago, it was probably the best $20 ever spent.
Now I have 4 Firefly/Serenity shirts, I'm wearing one today, actually. I love it when I see another Browncoat.

I used to watch Angel when it was on TV, I'm a little too young to have watched Buffy when it was on, I'm exactly 10 years younger than Buffy. I watched the first 2 seasons of it on hulu.com but that's all they had, so I'm waiting for blockbuster online to have season 3, disk 1 available.

I just saw Wall-E tonight. I smiled quite a lot during it. My name's Eva, so now I have people calling my name in that voice just to annoy me.
I especially loved the credits, they were like the evolution of art.
I also got a free watch when I bought the ticket, and I needed a watch so I'm going to wear it.

I saw Hancock last night. It started off lacking something.. it was pretty boring in the beginning. But it quickly got better and I ended up really enjoying the movie overall. The ending is great

[binka_nugget]

I just got back from the midnight screening of BATMAN!! It was AWESOME! I was blown away by everything! The action, the effects, the cast.. it was all great!

[finn's mom]

Blow. I can't believe it's taken me this long to see this film. I love Johnny Depp, and I'd heard this was a great movie. Definitely true, it was very good.

[Alysser]

I realized I posted good things about "Wanted", but after I re-watched it...WOW A complete waste of film, I can't believe I ever liked that movie. I guess I couldn't see how STUPID it was, especially the ending. Don't recommend it, and ignore my first rating. I have no clue what I was thinking when I typed that.

I think I am feeling some Star Wars or SOME type of Sci-fi tonight..I haven't watched Star Wars in 7 years, that's gotta be a sin.

I've mostly been watching classic Doctor Who episodes lately but I did see Benjamin Button and King Arthur. I didn't like the first, it was way too long and I lost interest. King Arthur is one of my favorite movies so of course that was fun. I dubbed over it in funny accents and stuff.
