The Last Movie You Watched?

Barquero. An early 70's western starring Lee van Cleef, Forrest Tucker and Warren Oates. Not very good, which was a shame as it had a great cast.

In Time- Pretty good but has a few plot flaws that annoyed me...

**KipNoxzema** · 06-24-2012, 05:05 PM

Goldfinger - Remastered, jazzed up, whatever you call it.

**tinashubby** · 06-24-2012, 05:24 PM

Sarah's Key - kind of a chick flick

I just can't get into mindless Hollywood action stuff very much any more.

Dog Day Afternoon. John Cazale was great.

**breadstick** · 06-24-2012, 06:50 PM

Wrath of the Titans. Not bad. My kids loved it.

**barneykiller** · 06-26-2012, 12:15 AM

Brave. My sister was in town from college and wanted to see it. The weakest Pixar movie out of all of them IMO.

City of Life and Death. A historical drama about the fall of Nanking. Laugh a minute, not.

Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Had not seem this in ages. It's not great but I enjoyed it none the less.

**Sullybob** · 06-26-2012, 05:33 AM

Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance. It's hard to express how awful this movie was.

**Dave in the basement** · 06-26-2012, 06:23 AM

Prometheus (2012) - I am glad I saw this, but it didn't really trip my trigger. Too many "WTF were you thinking moments" from the crew for me, and for some reason I couldn't suspend disbelief and just enjoy the movie. Taken out of the Alien mythos, it was standard sci fi fare to me. Not bad, but not spectacular either.

The Wackiest Ship in the Army (1960) - Unfortunately, I didn't find this nearly as wacky as I hoped, based on the title. I love Jack Lemmon and wish he could have done more in this film. Ricky Nelson co-starred and did fine in a limited role.

1408 (2007) - I am still on the lookout for a truly frightening movie, and this was pretty good. I may have to pick it up if I see a deal for it.

Too bad. My wife wants to see it.

Game of Thrones season one. I have already seen it once and it was still fantastic.

**john999** · 06-26-2012, 04:10 PM

Casablanca. Such as this cannot be made any more.

**aw561838** · 06-26-2012, 06:25 PM

Days of Heaven

**eyebright** · 06-26-2012, 06:29 PM

The Magdalene Sisters. I saw it when it first came out in 2002 and then watched it on late night t.v. the other night. Wow. Geraldine McEwan, the sweet "little old lady" who played Miss Marple in the television series, is the world's most evil nun, in charge of an asylum for "fallen women" in Ireland in 1964. The last Magdalene laundry closed in the 1990's and if they hadn't already closed, I bet this film would have gotten them shut down.

Agreed. Stereotypical male caricatures and too scary for my kids.

**Techichi** · 06-27-2012, 02:24 PM

I watched "The Grey." It kept my attention, but was unsatisfied by the ending.

I recently watched "Battle Royale." A Japanese movie about high school kids who have to kill each other if they want to live. Wasn't super impressed by it either.

I've been on a TV show kick lately. I don't watch TV because of commercials, but with Netflix I've been introduced to a whole new world. I've been through:

Lost
Medium
Twin Peaks
Dexter
Game of Thrones
The Walking Dead
Breaking Bad
Fringe

Loved every minute of those shows. Especially Fringe.

I may get some fire, but I could not watch "Mad Men" or "Touch." "Mad Men" is freagin' depressing, and "Touch" was just too...soft. I like weird, dark, and funny TV shows. Any more suggestions would be appreciated.

Firefly. Only one abbreviated season, but it was a great show that died a premature death. Criminal Minds is a pretty good crime drama. Nothing original in it, but the acting is very good.

Yes. I watched "Serenity." Loved it! Why I haven't looked up "Firefly" is beyond me. Thanks for the suggestion, auk! I'll check out "Criminal Minds" too.
