Well, I suggest a movie for you guys, then.

House of Wax. It has Paris Hilton, and the critics hated it. Might be right up your alley

3:10 to Yuma was another movie that left me scratching my head.

Oh, you mock Drew, you mock. But just you wait, one day, you will be sitting on the toilet and it will hit you, "damn, they were right, it really was boring movie of ghastly proportions."

Babel = epic fail.

I quit watching it after an hour because I did not want to waste 2 hours I'll never get back. I would way rather sit and stare at my tank. If I want depression in my life I'll watch the news. I watch movies to be entertained so for me Babel just didn't fit the bill.

I actually saw a GOOD movie the other night, rented Juno and was pleased, even my husband enjoyed it so it's not totally a chick flick.


(ps : I too was confused when the main good character in NCFOM ends up dead in a scene they didn't think was worth showing you.

I was lucky that I got this advice a while ago, I have avoided Babel ever since.

NCFOM was good to start but lost me half way through.

Attonement is another one I had to suffer through a couple weeks back.. the wife loved it.. on the other hand I wanted to poke my eyes out with turkey skewers.

It's been a while since I have seen a good movie. I'm a big fan of war movies so 2008 should be good. Der Rote Baron (if they ever peg a north american release date) and Passchendael in the fall

I saw I Am Legend on the weekend and I gotta say it was pretty good. Different concept and lots of action. I would recommend it for sure.

Read the book and you will cringe at how much of a sell-out that movie was

Then again, I have ulterior motives for disliking that movie.

Thumbs up

You will see a new light in all the above mentioned movies if you take the time, sit back and watch Casey Affleck and Matt Damon in "Gerry." Your a*s cheeks will really grip the couch.
