Dante said:Personally, I find movie threads the most interesting. Whether it's about new releases—deciding if they're worth the time or a total skip—or revisiting stuff I've already seen just to hear someone else's take on what I might have missed.
Seriously, I've been looking at what people are talking about regarding movies lately...
And honestly, we really need a simple thread for those old-school movies you'd rent from a video store. Just small, regular films to pass an evening with some popcorn. It would be nice to get a recommendation or a warning on what to grab or avoid—especially if you can't find a big blockbuster and end up stuck with some obscure flick featuring low-budget actors like Robert De Niro or Anthony Hopkins.
Here's what I've watched recently:
Sex Guru - A decent, fun little watch. Definitely check it out when you're just chilling after grabbing coffee on a summer evening.
Death to Smoochy - It took me forever to finally rent this one; I kept eyeing it from a distance and putting it off. But man, it's a brilliant dark comedy with a killer cast. Edward Norton leads the pack, and he's incredible—he can play absolutely anything. Seriously, he's climbing my list of favorite actors at lightning speed. Even Robin Williams is phenomenal in this. Highly recommended. (Directed by Danny DeVito, who also has a great role in it.)
