What Movies Have You Seen Recently?, Old and new

Oooooo, been wanting to see that one, Keltic! I didn't figure it was going to be anything less than scary, or at least I hoped not. I have heard that there is a big twist at the end of it...any truth to that?
I'll just curl up in my husbands lap and watch, never worry about it scaring me then!!!!!

Lil,

It wasn't predictable at all!

Lately, I've been on a "The Matrix" kick. The other day, it was "The Matrix". Last night, "The Matrix Reloaded". Tonight, "The Matrix Revolutions". I must've been suffering from a defeciency of "The Matrix".

BTW, because of "The Matrix", Laurence Fishburne is the actor who appears the most in my DVD collection, being in four of 'em. The fourth is "Apocalypse Now". If I ever get the "LOTR" trilogy though, he'll be replaced by Agent Elrond , Hugo Weaving.

I liked the first one, but to be hnest, was less than happy with the stories in the second (though #2 WAS better than #3) and third ones. The effects were great and I liked them a lot, but I just did not care for the stories.

Now, older movies....and I'm showing my age here, lol, anyone ever seen "The Wraith" or "The Lost Boys"?

Oooo, two of my all time favorites, but, my absolute favorite movie of all time is

Forbidden Planet!!

The hilarious thing is that I dreamt about Russell Crowe last night. We were both attending a Lisa Marie Presley concert together! I have never even heard her sing before! So figure that one out!

That's better than the nightmare I had last night. I dreamed I'd somehow conned my way onto a flight to Paris. During the flight, I'd discovered the hour hand on my watch had broken off. The only reason I say my dream was a nightmare was because former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich was in it !

(can you tell I'm a Democrat? )

bahahahhaha, Mike! You'll be happy to know then that I have met ole Newt several times when I lived in Atlanta. I used to run into him all the time for some reason...............and I am not a democrat. Maybe that's why!

I think I like my dream better than yours though. At least I had a handsome guy to look at!

Not a movie but we rented the first series (6 episodes) of the British comedy, "The Office". A brilliant comedy which is right up there with Fawlty Towers and Monty Pythons Flying Circus.

My husband has been after me to watch the 3 movies I picked out from netflix. I did today while he was " looking for holes in his eyelids". I watched Princess diaries 1 & 2, ( got the look from my husband when I picked them) and Waking Ned Devine. I really enjoyed all three.

Last night, I watched "Wall Street" with Michael Douglas & Charlie Sheen on FX. It's been awhile since I've seen that movie. That is my favorite Michael Douglas movie. At the time, that role was a real switch for him. He'd been playing good guys up until the role of that Gordon Gekko.

Valpal! That is so hysterical! I have never heard that expression before "looking for holes in his eyelids." I had to tell my hubby that one as he does that a lot!

Glad you enjoyed the movies! I have never seen Waking Ned Devine.........yet. Heard it is really good.
