Oh no, another one who liked Road House?? I just do NOT understand the attraction...it definitely isn't in the permanent collection DH and I continue to build.

Ah well, there is something for everyone. Afterall I am sure someone thinks that the Fantastic Voyage is good too!

:)

I haven't seen any more movies lately at all! Time's just flown by.

Had a chance to see Taken and Seven Pounds, but couldn't get the time.

Perhaps I need to educate you on its merits? Perhaps my April Blog on facebook will be "The Tao of Roadhouse"....

Perhaps so...of course as I am not on Facebook, I would miss your literate fulsome wise discourse on the movie, alack, alas.

Last night was Crimson Tide. The opportunity to watch Denzel, and Viggo Mortenson.....be still my heart!

However the merit of a movie is not in the actors...it is in the story, the acting, and the cinematography, so the movie was a 3.

Whoa...glad I found this thread in time. First off, how can anyone give Memento a 2?!?!? That movie kicks ass!

Roadhouse...terrible movie

I just went a saw Last House on the Left. I liked it but it is definitely not for the faint of heart. I'm a huge movie fan and I do enjoy the horror movie genre so I had to see this remake of the Wes Craven classic. It is very graphic, including a pretty brutal rape scene. The movie was good though. I would give it a 7 on a 1 to 10 scale.

Don't make me send Dalton after you, Melly! *Throat grab*

right Glouc?

Seriously, I know it's bad. It's soooooo bad that it's good, though.

**Kat817** · 03-19-2009, 10:57 PM

LOL, we actually walked out of Last House and ask for a refund, along with about 4 others----not something I would ever recommend, and not because it was gory---just a pathetic remake in my opinion!

Everyone sees things different, this just proves it!

Haha!!

Exactly because I just had no words... it was that awesome.

and the throat grab, work of art. ;o)

Nurse Melly - Welcome to the movie thread, where all opinions are welcomed (and the tastes of others are questioned/mocked...by others though, never me!

)

I'm hoping this weekend some good movies are among those randomly selected by DH and myself...watched another bad one last night: The Philadelphia Experiment...great premise, terrible movie. (I hate when that happens, and yet it does sooooo often). 1 on our 5 point scale.

HAHA Oh wow, most people I've talked to liked it.

I heard they are remaking Nightmare on Elm Street due to come out next year. I hope they do a good job. That movie scared the beejeeze out of me when I was a kid.

Last nights movies:

A beautiful mind - 4
Drop Dead Gorgeous - ejected it after about 7 minutes (DSD has such terrible taste in movies; how could such a movie loving, movie aware, movie intelligent man such as DH have such a daughter??)
Giant - 4

gone 4 ever · 03-21-2009, 01:45 PM

Yes Road house....I liked the movie. Been yrs since I have seen it though. I seen a good movie yesterday called Miss Ever's Boys. I love to watch fact based/ true stories. It really was making me mad at points. If you haven't seen it, it is about Tuskegee, Al. and how the gov. used people for human Guinea pigs. My rating an 9
I surprised myself the other day. I watched a movie on Beatrix Potter (famous Aurthur of children's books. Petter Rabbit) Anyway I do not like Renee Zelwigler. I think she can't act. But I actually liked her in this movie. Now if she could do just as good of acting in her other movies. Rating 8

Gone4Now · 03-21-2009, 06:05 PM

Got a chance to see Taken - LOVED IT.

It's the kind of movie that makes cheer out loud, because if someone took my daughter I'd want to do everything he does. (Don't have those skills of course, but I'd WANT to.)
