My son and I were watching Thor two when the tornado came through. So, we keep our ticket stubs to finish the movie.

Gotta be the best King adaption out there, followed very closely by the original Carrie.After all these years I finally watched "The Shawshank Redemption" last night. I even bought the DVD. I usually don't care for movie adaptations of stories I like (especially Stephen King ones, with a few exceptions) I really liked Shawshank. Really think Tim Robbins is great in this.
I bought a copy of that too and plan to watch it this weekend. I loved the book and hear the movie is really good...and The Green Mile, love this one too.
I love both and the cast of the movie is perfection really... IMO.I bought a copy of that too and plan to watch it this weekend. I loved the book and hear the movie is really good.
I am a member at Librarything -- I won a copy of The Women of Hammer Horror and Bette Davis is in it for this movie. I just read her part this week and if I remember correctly, they say her acting in the movie was good.The Nanny starring Bette Davis. Not one of her best, but still good.
Yes, she is good, and creepy (it's a Hammer film, after all), in it. The young boy that plays opposite her is outstanding and held up his own to Bette. It's got good performances but I think it's one of those movies that she did later in her career just to get a paycheck as the roles weren't coming her way anymore. She even put out an ad in the Hollywood Reporter asking for roles- how sad is it that someone who was once one of the biggest stars in the world had to beg for work? Actresses today complain that once you hit 30 there's no good roles for woman, but it's been since day one in Hollywood.I am a member at Librarything -- I won a copy of The Women of Hammer Horror and Bette Davis is in it for this movie.

Last night I watched Perks of Being a Wallflower - it was pretty sad, very moving and tragic. Oh the angst of being a teenager! How did we all survive? And if you were unlucky enough to have an issue of some kind, it was even worse - you think everyone knows your humiliating secrets. I sort of wish I hadn't watched it.
I purchased the 'Alien' anthology on bluray from Amazon and have been watching all of the 'extra's on it. Pretty interesting stuff! It contains the first four movies, both the original releases and then 'director's extended' versions. Amazon had it on sale for less than $20!! For bluray!! I'll probably have an 'Alien' film marathon on my two days off this week!
Yeah, I am afraid to go into the MU-TH-UR mode on the discs- might get lost in another dimension and not emerge for days...I bought the Alien Anthology on blu ray from Amazon the year before last and had an Alien marathon. It was fun. But I still haven't finished all the special features, which was over a hundred hours of material if I remember correctly.
