Will probably see Moneyball either later today or tomorrow.

I want to see that, too! And Contagion. Let us know how it is if you see it (no spoilers ).

Saw Contagion on Saturday. I liked it.
Didn't realize how many big name stars were in it.

(I could not stop staring at Jude Law's front tooth whenever he was on screen... )

I saw Bent today at work. It's a movie from 1997. It was very moving and contained a gorgeous performance of Mick Jagger.

It's based on a play by the same name and is about the persecution of homosexuals in Nazi Germany. It's not an easy movie to watch, but the actors are stunning and the cinematography was amazing.

The Juggler

saw ides of march this weekend. really enjoyed it. my brother, who is in politics, didn't care for it too much as he thought it was pretty unrealistic.

Was bored tonight and had a free movie ticket so i decided to check out Real Steel. It was ok. Some slow parts thrown in there. I chuckled a few times. Hugh Jackman and Evangeline Lilly (Kate from Lost ) were decent. Even the little kid i liked. Some kids in movies i just don't think are good and believable but he did well.

Saw "Black Death" a couple of nights ago streaming on Netflix, I thought it was really good. I saw one person in this thread describe it as "Awwwfffuuulll", so don't take my opinion to the bank. Anything with Sean Bean is going to be at least good. It's not very fast paced, but the final act is pretty intense.

We recently saw Midnight in Paris. It was good.

Anyone seen Paranormal Activity 3 yet? I'm always up for a good scare, was wondering if this was worth my time.

So I saw Tintin yesterday.

I was really skeptical of this from the trailers. Now having seen it, I'll say that the story itself isn't anything special and too much of the humour falls flat.

But... and this is a BIG but...

The film is visually stunning. Like 'holy *beep* I can't believe that's not real' stunning.

I came out of this thoroughly convinced that we're not far off from this being the standard of film-making. No more expensive action sequences, no on location shots, no concerns about actors' age or appearance. I'm not saying that's necessarily a good thing, but don't see this and tell me it's not quite feasible.

Anyway, here's my full review for Tintin: http://wp.me/p1LZHn-8l

Ok, this totally depends on how easily you get scared. My friend wants to go see PA3 this coming Friday. And since I didn't bother seeing the first 2, we rented them this past weekend. I didn't find them scary. At all. I literally laughed during the movies. I will go see the 3rd, because she really wants me to go, and it is an evening out. And because I have a coupon for 50% off that expires on the 31st.

I am more into movies like Saw...I couldn't get past the fourth one...and watched all the others in FF with no sound. Now that's my kind of scary.

No, I haven't seen it yet, waiting for it to come to DVD, too.

It's going to be neat watching Silent Hill 2, they filmed quite a large portion of in my town!

I've seen the Martin Scorsese documentary about George Harrison today, it's called "Living in the material world".

It was very touching and I learned a lot of stuff about him that I didn't know before. A very interesting and sympathetic guy with amazing talent. Good stuff :thumbup:

Here's the trailer:

Was suppose to see this on Friday at the local indie theater near me

(I haven't seen it in ages when it was on tv a awhile Back), but the film got shipped to another city :x and instead we got Friday the 13 (original UK version) which wasn't too bad, I was just looking forward to The Warriors. I think they are gonna get it a few weerks though

thinking of seeing Ides Of March tomorrow

Hugh Freaking Dillon

watched Everything Must Go with Will Farell last night. It's a serious movie about an alcoholic that loses his job, his wife, basically his whole life. He comes home and all his shit is scattered on his front lawn, the locks changed on the doors. So he just plunks himself down in his easy chair, and acts as if his front lawn is his living room.

my wife said it was slow moving, but I liked it.

Ok we rented 5 movies over this past week.

Bloodworth, Bad Teacher, Hesher: All really good. :thumbup:

Paranormal Activity 1 & 2: We laughed through both. Yeah, not scary enough for us. :thumbdown:

Going to see the 3rd installment because a friend asked me. I hope I don't laugh too hard. :?
