Peacefield Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Jo-Bridge - did you see that Mickey Roarke won best actor for the Wrestler at the Globes? It's kind of a come back for him, but he freaks me out too and I had to turn the channel I couldn't even watch him give his acceptance speech! I'm excited for Angels & Demons too, and hope it lives up to the book since I liked that one more than DC. I'm not over the moon for Hanks either, so I guess we'll have to see... I also would like to see the following before the Oscars: The Reader, Slumdog Millionaire, Happy-Go-Lucky, Revolution Road, Doubt and The Dutchess. Quote
whitegold Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 I waiting to see Watchmen and the new Terminator movie. cannnt wait! Quote
Ben Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 That 3D one that's coming out soon looks quite good, My Bloody Valentine or something along those lines. Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 That 3D one that's coming out soon looks quite good, My Bloody Valentine or something along those lines. That does look good but they don't do the 3D version at my local cinema. I saw Role Models today and it was a lot funnier than I thought it would be Quote
lexiepiper Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 That 3D one that's coming out soon looks quite good, My Bloody Valentine or something along those lines. Yeah, looks good, Jensen Ackles will also make it a little nicer on the eyes Quote

Ben Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Revolutionary Road. (2008) Out on the 30th January 2009 (UK). Synopsis. April and Frank Wheeler are a young, thriving couple living with their two children in a Connecticut suburb in the mid-1950s. Their self-assured exterior masks a creeping frustration at their inability to feel fulfilled in their relationships or careers. Frank is mired in a well-paying but boring office job, and April is a housewife still mourning the demise of her hoped-for acting career. Determined to identify themselves as superior to the mediocre sprawl of suburbanites who surround them, they decide to move to France where they will be better able to develop their true artistic sensibilities, free of the consumerist demands of capitalist America. As their relationship deteriorates into an endless cycle of squabbling, jealousy and recriminations, their trip and their dreams of self-fulfillment are thrown into jeopardy. This looks very good. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet! Quote
hume Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I can't believe i didn't go and see The Wrestler when it was out. Pure laziness on my part. I wish I could get excited about the new Terminator movie, but for some reason the casting of christian bale and the trailers I've seen, leave me somewhat disheartened. I hope I do enjoy it as I love the concept and the first 2 films. The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button is another I wish to see. Quote
BookBee8 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Hoping to go see Seven Pounds at the weekend Quote
Andaira Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Currently I'm wanting to see He's Not That Into You, Coraline, New In Town, and Inkheart. We'll see when I can manage to squeeze all of those into my schedule either in one day, or throughout four weeks. Quote
Lucybird Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 They made a movie of Coraline? I bet that's weird...the book is strange enough. Hopefully I'm seeing Benjamin Button this weekend when my boy comes down, presuming the snow has stopped enough for me not to fall over on my crutches! Quote
BookBee8 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Hopefully I'm seeing Benjamin Button Oooh, I had my eye on that. I want to read the book first though! Have you read it? Quote
Lucybird Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Oooh, I had my eye on that. I want to read the book first though! Have you read it? No, I would like to though. I want to read the book version of Slumdog Millionaire too, but I can't remember what it's called. I loved that film so I hope the book will be good too Quote

I loved that film so I hope the book will be good too Well it's called Q&A, but another edition has been released as Slumdog Millionaire too I want to see The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. - It's out tomorrow. I want to watch this too, BF says it looks rubbish, but I like the sound of the storyline Edited February 5, 2009 by Kell Quote
Chimera Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I want to see The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. - It's out tomorrow. Oh I think we're going to see that one this We. Is it meant to be really good? Well it's called Q&A, but another edition has been released as Slumdog Millionaire too And it's actually better than the film storywise. You wont be disapointed! Quote
Lucybird Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Maybe I should put it on the top of my wishlist then Quote

I want to watch this too, BF says it looks rubbish, but I like the sound of the storyline Oh I think we're going to see that one this We. Is it meant to be really good? It's a very gentle film - easy to watch even though it's long. It's an unusual story and both the leads put in good, solid performances - well worth seeing. Much better than Slumdog too. Better still, see The Reader - it's excellent - Winslet really does deserve the Oscar, I think! Quote

It's an unusual story and both the leads put in good, solid performances - well worth seeing. Sounds good! I just downloaded the original short story in free e-book form. I want to read it before seeing the film. Edited February 5, 2009 by Chimera typo Quote
Ben Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for that Kell, it sounds good. I'm looking forward to going to see it.. at some point. Quote

It's an unusual story and both the leads put in good, solid performances - well worth seeing. Much better than Slumdog too. Well, I went to see it tonight and rather enjoyed it but found it a bit too dragged out and over dramatic on the edges... I agree with you about the two main actors and it being a nice gentle film for a quiet evening. But it's nothing compared to Slumdog Milionnaire imo! Quote
Inver Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Kenny & I want to see 'Bolt.....just cause we love the hamster Rhino...lol:lol: Quote
Talisman Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 The film I most want to see is The Reader, but Benjamin Button looks interesting too ! Also when they are released, or come to our area, Revolutionary Road and that film about President Nixon. Quote
