Post that in here please someone, I have not seen.
Saw the first 15 30 for 30's on DVD for like 45 bucks or something like that at Fry's. Had the OJ one, the U, AI, LA Raiders, and a bunch of others I can't remember. ESPN NAILED that series. I remember when Simmons first spoke on it, I never imagined it would be that good.
Social Network was awesome, I've already said many good things about it, the dialogue in that movie is
American History X messed me up pretty damn royally when the curb scene came up.Great movie, powerful as all hell, Norton is flawless, but damn that scene.
Watched Tron last night. No idea what the @#$% was going on, but I saw more Wilde (always a good thing) and some cool @#$ visuals, but I doubt I'll be watching it over and over or anything. I may sit down someday and watch both back to back to get a better understanding at least.
Got Winter's Bone, Kids are Alright, Hereafter, some Ninja movie (forgot the name) and something else for this week. Along with Killing Zoe which I still haven't had time for yet.
Anyone lookin forward to Limitless? That looks pretty good imo. I been a Cooper fan since he was on Alias, aka the best show ever.

Amaerican History X is a modern day classic for sure. It's a shame that director hasn't done anything of note after. He made a a documentry about abortion that got good reviews but I've never seen it
i saw a very weird movie called Apartment Zero a few days ago. I recommend it to movie buffs who are looking for something strange that they've never seen. It stars colin Firth (the king's speech). Basically about two roommates in Buenos Aires. There isn't much I can say without giving away details. starts off very slow but gets soooo weird as the movie goes on.

--You will not be disappointed.
--Good basketball scene too though...in terms of action not subject matter.

Basically... Catwoman is Batman's ally. They're fighting the League of Shadows led by Talia Al'Ghul (Cotillard) with Bane and maybe Black Mask (JGL)...

Seen it 1000 times and I still can't watch the curb stomp...

We need a little confession in here, I just read that KLJ just saw Good Will Hunting for the first time last week.I wanted to yell at him, and then I remembered that I just saw Forrest Gump for the first time last night.
The list of movies I haven't seen would shock you all.

Drop a short list, what're we talkin here? I'm guessing more the more mainstream fluff, you seem to have seen a ton of "deeper" movies, stuff that isn't box office big so to speak.
What did you think of Good Will?
Another Al-Gul, Bane, Black Mask, and then Cat and Bat?
Yeesh. Nolan gonna need a 3 hour movie. Still got the roles for Gordon and Alfred, Morgan Freeman if he returns, that always takes a few minutes here and there. That's a lot of screen time. But, Nolan has earned my trust, so I'm sure he'll get it figured out, but that plot sounds massive.

Man, I didn't realize it turned to a movie discussion, solid!
Saw the first 15 30 for 30's on DVD for like 45 bucks or something like that at Fry's. Had the OJ one, the U, AI, LA Raiders, and a bunch of others I can't remember. ESPN NAILED that series. I remember when Simmons first spoke on it, I never imagined it would be that good.

American History X messed me up pretty damn royally when the curb scene came up.Great movie, powerful as all hell, Norton is flawless, but damn that scene
The wife got me the 30 for 30, awesome, can't wait till the next one comes out with the 2nd half. The 1994 OJ one still the most powerful to me because I remember that day like 9/11 (not nearly as powerful of course but that vivid).
Social Network is great, just saw it a few weeks ago for the first time
American History X is in my top 10, and after the first time, I will NEVER hear that curb stomp again. Volume must go down or I will literally cover my ears. But what an amazing movie with such powerful messages, both good and bad (which is why it is so good).
And I'm a big fan of Good Will Hunting as well. Honestly, after a night at the bars and I don't want to go to bed, Hunting, X or Shawshank will go in the PS3 and I'm mesmorized

I consider myself a movie "buff" (as the term goes)... but classic/great movies I have yet to see:
The Departed
Casino
The Godfather Parts II and III
American History X
Terminators
Dumb and Dumber
Mission Impossible I and II
Jurassic Park
Gladiator
There's probably more, but I need to see those for sure.
I have Independence Day and Watchmen on my DVR right now.... what's Watchmen like? I remember hearing it didn't live up to the hype.
I really enjoyed it. I never thought his girl in the movie was anything to move all over the country for though. She was on my nerves about 45 minutes into the movie.

Casino

It's a pretty subtle, straightforward flick. You've gotta look for the flaws and the 'why shouldn't this work' moments in the movie. They should be there, but they really aren't.
