Along those lines, have you seen both versions (or either version) of Insomnia? I prefer the original there as well, but it's hard to argue against a Christopher Nolan and Al Pacino collaboration!

Arthur. I hadn't seen that one in a long while. It's kind of a lightweight as a film, but great comedy. Dudley Moore was very talented at comedy (and Piano).
Drive: I liked it a lot. I didn't expect it at all. I didn't know what it was about. Rented it purely on the fact that I think Gosling is a great actor.
Sans Soleil: I thought it was horrible. If anyone can tell me what's good about this film, enlighten me, please.

Yes. That's a good comparison. I liked them both, too. Pacino (as always) did his part to carry that film, and I think Stellan Skarsgard was really good in his version. In fact, he's good in just about everything he does. I have Zero Kelvin (which I saw a long time ago) and A Somewhat Gentle Man (which I have not seen) in my Netflix instant queue. Maybe I'll break one of them out tonight.
Never saw LTROI and thought LMI was decent. That actress that played the little "girl" Chloe Moretz was excellent. Actually everything ive seen her in shes been good(Hugo,Kickass, LMI, an episode of 30 rock). I think she will have an excellent career.
Bullitt. Everything that can be said about this movie has already been said. Let me just say I enjoyed it a lot.
And I hope to goodness the current generation of incompetent asses in Hollywood never, ever try to remake it.

warrior you have to see this movie its the best fight movie thats been realeased since rocky tom hardys one hell of an actor hes playin bane in the new batman and he also played charles bronson britains most violent criminal.
Ghost Protocol last weekend with the eldest child, this morning a matinee of Hugo with the middle boy! Both good.
Pirates of the Caribbean, On Stranger Tides- It was pretty bad, director really needs Ritalin.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Good popcorn action movie that is definitely made for home theaters. LOUD!!!
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World.
It was fairly odd but I enjoyed it.

I checked out Warrior last night. Had some pretty strong performances (Nolte and Hardy, especially), and overall I liked it OK in spite of a few things.
Scooby Doo (2002)- Had a free online rental, wasn't much selection. Ok movie, was cool to see Mr Bean in it...
Just got a belated birthday gift of the anniversary edition of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and the full 288 minute int'l version of Red Cliff on Blu-Ray.
I've been wanting to see Red Cliff for quite awhile (purposely avoided the US theatrical version) and I have been looking forward to checking out the remastered, director's cut of Close Encounters. Looks like I have a few nights of hi-def movie watching lined up!!
Will report back when done.

I just got through watching The English Patient. There's a cool straight razor scene where DeFoe gets his thumbs cut off.
The last movie I saw was Green Lantern, Starring Ryan Reynolds. Was not all that good of a movie, didn't have enough use of his actual powers and the story line was just complete crap...
Close Encounters is so good it hurts. Let me know what you think of Red Cliff, I've been waiting to see it also.
My idiot Brother. It was ok. 3/5 stars. I like a lot of the cast like Rudd, Zooey and Rashida Jones. Some laugh out loud moments and kept my attention.
