Wow... Although not movies, I find myself watching the Firefly episodes over and over again. I just never tire of them. And of course, Serenity, the movie. I really don't know what it is about the show that I love so much, even more than the movie.

Other DVDs... "To Live and Die in LA" is awesome. "Brazil," which is what Orwell's 1984 would have looked like if done my Monty Python. "Hopscotch," with Walter Mathau. The Lord of the Rings extended edition movies. "The Usual Suspects," "Sin City," "Jackie Brown."

And then there's "Constantine" with Keaneu Reeves. Not what I'd call a great movie, but IHMO, the Devil steals the show. I think that it was genius having the devil played as a cajun! Seriously, listen to the way he talks! Awesom. The rest of the movie is OK, I guess... However, my guess is that it was Tilda Swinton's protrayal of Gabriel that won her the role of the White Witch in "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe."

The list just goes on and on...

The last DVD I watched was Fight Club. I'm not a Brad Pitt fan, but I thought he did a good job here. There were some violent and disturbing scenes, but I enjoyed the acting and darkly humorous script.

[GretchenM]

The first half of my newly-purchased "Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe."

The last movie I went to was What Women Want with Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt.

Last DVD I watched all the way through was Spiderman II.

Just don't care much for movies.

Good morning everyone.

[GodBlessRonaldReagan]

"Horsefeathers" starring the Marx Brothers, last night on Fox Movie Channel. A classic!

[PGalt]

It has been so long, I cannot...wait-a-minute...Chicken Little...my grandkids 1st movie at the theater. For me and my wife...I cannot remember. I've asked at times, and her response is "there is nothing I wan't to see" and I wholeheartedly agree.

The last DVD I watched?
Lawrence of Arabia

[TheMom]

The last DVD I watched was "Walk The Line". Apparently the DVD player did not like the movie because it stopped in the same place on three different disc. Never did get to see the ending, now I am left wondering if the Johnny guy & that June lady ever hooked up.

Just saw Narnia - loved it!

Good morning ya'll!

Thanks to the most awesome military for all you guys do! Ya'll ROCK!

oohhh fun topic MoJo!
Last movie in the theater was Failure to Launch. It was okay, save your money and wait for it on DVD if you have any interest in it. Last DVD movie was the Chronicles of Narnia, both the new movie and the older Brittish movie that covered a few of the books not just The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Can't wait to hear what everyone else last watched. Hopefully I'll get a few movie ideas for my movie night next weekend :)

Have a great on ya'll!

Good Morning troops! Good Morning everyone! The last DVD I watched was Firefly, Disc 1. It has the first three episodes from the Firefly TV show which aired back in '02. I watched the first episode, entitled Serenity Parts 1 & 2. Here's today's humor attempt!

A lawyer and two buddies were fishing on Caddo Lake in Texas when a lightning storm hit. Most of the other boats immediately headed for the shore, but not our friend the lawyer. Alone on the rear of his aluminum bass boat with his buddies, this individual stood up, spread his arms wide and shouted: "HERE I AM LORD, LET ME HAVE IT!" Needless to say, God delivered. The other two passengers on the boat survived the lightning strike with minor burns.
