Peacefield Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Nice, Alan Rickman Would you happen to remember, was this one of the movies that you suggested I should watch? I'm adding it to my list anyways Hmm, I haven't known about Bottle Shock for that long so it's probably not one I recommended. It was most likely Bottle Rocket, which is my FAVE! That is a must-see for sure and I'm counting on you to track it down, Frankie. Bottle Shock was good though, and you can't go wrong with Alan Rickman, Chris Pine and Bill Pullman! It's a true story too about a famous 1976 Paris wine tasting competition. Fascinating stuff!

I'm adding that to my list as well, thanks peace! I'm still watching Bottle Shock though, cause there's Alan Rickman, tehehehe.
joe Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Animals United, I took my 4 year old and we both loved it.
Kylie Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Edit: Almost forgot: I watched The Graduate the other day. Pretty good. I'm thinking I might enjoy the book as well. I was a little disappointed with the book after reading the movie. It's not very well-written but I think it's pretty close to the movie. In fact, it might almost read like the movie script; a bit light on description. (I could be wrong; it's been a while since I've read it.) I would still recommend it though. I liked it well enough once I got used to the style, and there's also a sequel called Home School which I have on my TBR pile.

I was thinking it might be a really excellent book. I'll read it at some point anyways, it's on the list
Kylie Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 I watched Vanity Fair with Reese Witherspoon and now I'm watching 84 Charing Cross Road. It's a night of book adaptations for me.

Nero Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1. Great film 9/10,
Peacefield Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I watched Inception last night, and I think I need to watch it again. I thought it was okay, but I have a feeling that I didn't love it because I wasn't giving it my undivided attention. I was quite lost tbh, which is not something that usually happens to me. Put it this way - I understood the whole concept of a dream-within-a-dream thing, but I have no idea of the purpose Oh, and I watched Moon earlier this week. Very odd, but definitely intriguing.
lopeanha Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Buried It's kina amazing how they can make a film with only one actor and a few voices on a cell phone.
lauraloves Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Definance - I loved this so much, it even had me in tears!
nursenblack Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I watched Toy Story 3 last night. So good! I love Disney
angelha Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Just saw True Grit (Cohen bros. remake, not original), and it was fantastic! The story was completely engrossing and the little girl was fantastic! Of course, I now have to read the book and see the original John Wayne production...

Of course, I now have to read the book and see the original John Wayne production... Hi angelha, how are you? I love the original film of 'True Grit', for me, its John Wayne at his best and I can' wait to see the Coen Brothers version I didn't know it was based on a book, another title to look out for, thanks
Kylie Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 I just watched The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Better than the book, I thought.
Peacefield Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 We watched 'Lars and the Real Girl' last night and I watched 'Sense & Sensabilities tonight. Both excellent films!
Lucybird Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World can't say I was very impressed, although it was funny it parts
Purple Princess Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Watched Love and Other Drugs the other day. Thought it was a bit weird - just Anne Hathaway naked for the majority of it!
poppy Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 The Blind Side, a real feel-good movie and The Lovely Bones which I thought was excellent.
Coffin Nail Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Inception. Worth a watch for the effects, but not really my bag.
Karsa Orlong Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 How To Train Your Dragon. Utterly, utterly loved it Although I'm still trying to work out why the adult Vikings spoke with Scottish accents whilst the kids were all American I want Toothless for a pet. So much smarter than my stoopid cat
Nollaig Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Fantastic movie, best Disney film I've seen in YEARS. Can't believe it got the reviews it did.
