well just watched cpt. america not to bad of a movie.

lets see who can see the tie-in to the iron man movie

I really enjoyed Capt America, not my fav hero either,but much better than most Marvel movies
Thor was...bearable ,the attempt at a romance was painful at best,but the portrayal of Thor himself was great the Hammer battles were right outta the comics

and yes that was Tony Starks' dad involved in the super soldier program Dom

now if I can convince them to do an X-men movie that follows the comics even slightly I'll be really happy First-Class was great despite only one original X-men being in it
for a cookie who was it ?
and another if you name the original X-men

At last, the final Harry Potter film--bittersweet but good. rated at a 8/10.

Still haven't seen the last 2 yet...some day.

watched drive angry which has a lot of violence and some interesting sex/killing scenes toward the beginning, and just watched water for elephants interesting movie, got the blue ray version to try out the new 49 dollar blue ray we got to replace the dvd player in the bedroom. blue ray is a lil better than the up-scaling system i have hooked to the plasma tv but not much from the looks of it.

seen the last ver of pirates/ on stranger tides .... was a different twist to that one lol

watched super 8 also...interesting

watched the help yesterday and i don't think i will ever be able to look at a chocolate pie again and not think of that movie lol.

and mr. poppers penguins was good too.

watched cowboys and aliens .....different

just got done watching neverland....interesting plot and explanation of how peter pan started. now it is interestingly enough done as 2 movies on the same disc, i guess as a intermission break lol

watched "contagion" recently... reminded me a lot of outbreak, but slightly more realistic. saw it as a very good production of what would happen if a biological virus were spread by a terrorist group. hopefully nothing like that happens.

also saw a lesser known movie called "elephant white" takes place in thailand and deals with the sex trade there. basically a former special ops soldier wages war against the people who profit from the sex trade, has a bit of a twist to it, very interesting as i've always been interested in slightly factual stories from abroad.

i'm a huge movie fan, and have held myself back from this thread, as i hate most everything hollywood throws out. if anyone wants some suggestions for lesser known movies that are decent and have a good story, ill put together a list.

For my birthday I went to see A V E N G E R S. Just wow. Only been a few days since I saw it, but I want to see it again.

HULK SMASH

just watched abducted the other night

Aaaaaaaannnnnnd?????.....

lol flak!!! it's an alright movie, some nice action scenes in it.

I'm completely awed over ARN, THE KNIGHT TEMPLAR. Granted that it is a Swedish movie with subtitles in English, it is still awesome. Beautifully done, historically accurate with costumes, housing, and day-to-day life of 12th century Sweden and the love story between the two main characters weaving throughout the movie while he is in the Holy Land and she is forced be a lay person in an abbey.
