Seen any good(or bad) movies lately?:)

[ohmt]

Have to add-Enders Game has something like 7? books in the series. The ending for the first book isn't supposed to be a real ending. I don't know if they'll make any more movies, but there is much more to the story.

Can't stand this weather! Going to ask Hubby to take me to a movie this Sunday. There are a couple new ones coming out. (Hope we only get 2 " of snow and not 4!!!).

We just saw Thor the dark world! It was good! I like the Marvel movies though oh and it helps that the main guy is "kinda cute"! Lol!

 

[Performancemini]

We saw Thor. Yes, it was good! I want to see "Divergent" when it comes out. I am starting to read the book (it's a 'young adult' section book) and so far I am liking it. I think it is on the order of the "Hunger Games" series in style.

 

[jacks'thunder]

May have to check "Divergent" out! I liked the hunger games.

We watched Captain Phillips last night. I wasn't sure I would like it, but it was really good.

We watched an older one a couple of nights ago, that I really enjoyed. It was Silver Linings Playbook. It was NOT AT ALL what I was expecting it to be, but I really enjoyed it.

We just went to see "Lone Survivor" tonight at the theater. It is based on a true story in Afghanistan. It was a war movie, and was kind of gruesome because of it, but it was a good movie. I just cannot imagine the lives those brave soldiers have to live through. There is just so much they go through in war, and then to live it every single day after their tour is over, IF they make it. So many brave men and women...I just cannot imagine living through what they see. Hats off, and hearts go out to all of those that keep our countries safe.

I know my husband will want to see Lone Survivor, but is one I won't go to-too much war and blood. He'll want to see the one with Liam Neeson (forgot the name) about the air Marshall on the plane that's being framed as a killer. I will go to that one though.

Saw The Lego Movie. A little one-dimensional but pretty enjoyable... Something for everyone.

 

[Performancemini]

We went and saw 12 years a Slave yesterday. It is so distressing how people were treated. I would think it was a hard movie to get through for the actors and all. So much emotion.

 

[Helicopter]

Saw "Philomena'' last week. Wasn't really expecting to enjoy it but it was compelling. It keeps coming back into my thoughts and I guess that is a sign of a really good movie.

Classic, my hubby reminded me how much I love Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. I don't like all musicals but I love that one. Just a romantic at heart

 

[jacks'thunder]

Well I tried to watch The Impossible but just after 20 minutes "ish" I had to turn it off. It's about the tsunami that hit in 04 in Thailand. I don't know why but I had a super hard time with this movie. I got so anxious, with my hands up at my face, and I kept holding my breath. I had to tell hubby to turn it off. Naw not a movie I want to try and see again.

Give me gore and bombs and monsters

Just don't give me Tsunamis(newly added to my "nope" list), zombies, or spiders

Who knows why this movie hit me wrong...

it looked like it was going to be good. Oh well, on to the next! LOL!

My youngest daughter, Crystal treated me to the movies over the weekend and we saw The Son of God. It was very good, but did make me cry.

 

[paintponylvr]

whoa... Just watched the trailer for The Impossible. I'd like to see the movie. Don't know how I'll handle it since I know that it's pretty real/based on a real event and not that long ago.

I'm a sucker for "bad" sci-fi "end of the world" flicks. Just watched a whole series of them - amazing how bad some of them are. You can get the thrill but then poke fun at them or poke their "theories" full of holes. You know that it doesn't happen quite like that. But the bad ones are so far removed from the good ones - I LOVED "2012" and "The Day After Tomorrow". Also like "Volcano" w/ Tommy Lee Jones. There's a couple of others that I've liked over the years...

AND I've pestered my family forever about Seven Brides for Seven Brothers!! Have you watched Paint Your Wagon?

 

[bevann]

I'm a sucker for kid movies.Love A Wish for Annabelle with Randy Travis as narrator and The Fox and the Hound and any movies with horses like Hidalgo-just watched it again recently.

 

[Ashley]

I like Dallas buyers club

 

[ohmt]

I watched a movie with Rachel McAdams the other day....I think called "About Time"? Not sure on that, but the movie was very good and I wasn't expecting it to be. Thought it'd be just another "Nicholas Sparks" like movie, but it wasn't. Made me feel great about life the next day

 

[Mona]

Ashley, I REALLY wanted to see that one! We saw it on the trailers they run before a movie starts at the theater, but they never did get it in...at least not yet, but i DO want to go to that one if/when it comes, or at least see it on TV. Good to know the movie is as good as I had hoped.
