So what movies have y'all seen for the first time recently?

Either rented or at the theater...whatever.

I saw Garden State and Napoleon Dynamite....I enjoyed both a lot...I didn't really go to the movies a whole lot this summer - so I'm trying to start going more again...oooh - I also saw the Village which I thought was awesome!!!

so what have you seen...

Just saw Ladder 49 (mediocre movie, but my Lord is Joaquin Phoenix hot as hell............) with Bourne Supremacy (awesome suspense flick - not usually my taste, but I really enjoyed it) at the drive-in this past weekend.

Other than that, nothing lately.

My mom made me go see Shark Tale with her this weekend. I hated it but pretended to like it!

Other than that, I haven't seen much lately. I still have to see Sky Captain- can't believe I've let a Jude Law film go for several weeks in the theaters without seeing it.

Deanna, if you liked Garden State- I recommend the soundtrack. We're moving a ton of copies of it right now, for a reason- it's great.

Yeah - Shark Tale doesn't look like my kind of flick...so I won't be seeing that...unless someone pays me a lot of money to see it....

Yeah - I was interested in the soundtrack from Garden State and Napoleon - both sound pretty good...thanks for the recomendation...

I've also wanted to see DeLovely since it came out - and still haven't gotten around to it - should be at the cheap theater soon...I'll see it then...I have a weird thing for Kevin Kline

I just rented Kill Bill 2, (loved more than the first one), Taking Lives (meh), Coffee and Cigarettes (kinda slow, but very cool!).

Rented Man on Fire this weekend and loved it!! Saw Shark Tale at the thearter and it was OK. I loved Jack Black's character but that was about it.

I wasn't a big fan of De-Lovely though. He's great and the music is fab but overall it doesn't quite work and it's way too long.

The last films I saw? I Heart Huckabees, which is weird but hugely enjoyable and Alien Vs Predator, which was silly but fun.

I didn't much like Sky Captain I'm afraid. It was style over substance for me.

OMG....I'm shooting jealous vibes your way

no - seriously...the guy I had a huge crush on at NPR all summer sort of reminded me of Kevin Kline...haha...so my weird KK crush sort of escalated after that...

Interviewed him? What do you do?

I've not seen either Kill Bill - but many of my friends are way into these movies....so I may get around to seeing them eventually....

That's where he's cole porter, right? I also have a weird thing for Kevin Kline, which i believe is called "He's a great actor"

And plus, as it relates to me, he also happens to be a scorpio! Thanks for reminding me, I want to see that, too...let's see, i'll probably watch mean girls and Napolean Dynamite soon.

Wait, why do you get to interview Kevin Kline???

I didn't know people really had those kind of jobs...

OMG - I almost forgot - me too! Actually, we saw Kill Bill Vol. 1 on cable the other night & we loved it so we went out the next night & rented Vol. 2.

I'm actually glad I didn't go to see #1 in the theatre, cuz I'd have been pissed having to wait so long for part 2.

Paula

PS - all fight scenes awesome, but Daryl & Uma - OMG!

He is a great actor...but even beyond that...he makes me all fluttery haha...I just really enjoy him..Life as a House was great....I don't know much about astrology so the scorpio thing doesn't mean anything to me...

Mean Girls is hilarious!!! I loved it - definitely see that - and Napoleon Dynamite was pretty damn amusing as well....

Violet · #13 10-04-2004, 02:54 PM

I haven't seen a grown-up movie (almos said adult movie, but that didn't sound right

) at the theater since Titanic

. But I think I've seen almost every animated flick out there!! Which of course means Shark Tale is in my immediate future.

I am looking forward to The Incredibles coming out next month.

I did rent Cold Mountain a couple weeks ago and LOVED it. And I can't stand Nicole Kidman (usually). I rented Love Actually last weekend and didn't even watch the whole thing.

I'm jealous you have a drive-in nearby! I used to love going to a drive-in.
