Topic: What'ya got 2007-2013?

[addicted2dvd]

Nope... don't think I would include it in the horror marathon... at the most I would watch it... but list it in my ongoing "What Movies I Watch" thread... and not count it in the horror marathon totals. This is of course going by the theatrical release that I have already watched.

	Dead Like Me: Life After Death (2009) R1-US MGM (Feb 17, 2009) Finally gave in on this, even if I don't expect it to measure up to the series.
	The Fall (2006) R2-UK Momentum (Jan 26, 2009) From the guy who made The Cell, which I didn't really like, despite its strong visual style. Yet I'm curious...
	Innocence (FR 2004) R2-UK Artificial Eye (Jan 23, 2006) This won a few awards at lesser European festivals. It's based on a story by Frank Wedekind and seems like a cross of Picnic at Hanging Rock and Valerie and Her Week of Wonders. I spontaneously decided to buy it after seeing this still from the movie.

Another batch to quell my new thirst for Bollywood movies

	Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (€6.95 at Amazon.de) The debut movie of the guy who directed Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and starring a lot of the same people.
	Mujhse Dosti Karoge (€8.95 at Amazon.de) Stars Hrithik Roshan plus two girls I liked from other Bollywood movies.
	Main Hoon Na (€6.95 at Amazon.de) Another Shahrukh Khan movie.
	Lakshya (€12.99 at Amazon.de) Starring Hrithik Roshan and Preity Zinta, so far my two favorite Bollywood actors.

Yesterday I picked up "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" from Best Buy. They currently have it on sale for 14.99.

I highly recommend this Aaron Sorkin show as a blind buy for anyone who likes something a bit different. It only lasted one season but they do a really good job of ending the show so you feel satisfied. I am really looking forward to watching it again. I've had it on my list for a while and am glad it finally went on sale somewhere.

Great cast. The main actors are:
Mathew Perry
Amanda Peet
Bradley Whitford
Steven Weber
D.L. Hughley
Sarah Paulson
Timothy Busfield

I enjoyed watching Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip when it originally aired. I been meaning to pick up the DVDs... but haven't had the chance to yet.

	Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai (£6.19 at Amazon.co.uk) The breakout role of Hritik Roshan.
	Get Smart (£10.33 at Amazon.co.uk) Blind buy. It has Anne Hathaway in it  And I usually like Steve Carell.
	Fire (£6.19 at Amazon.co.uk) I have had this movie on my wishlist for a long time and never came around buying it. It was in India a highly controversial lesbian movie. I thought, that now where I started buying Indian movies, it is finally time to buy this one.
	West Side Story (£4.12 at Amazon.co.uk) This was still missing in my collection. I think I haven't even seen it completely yet.
	Karin: Complete Box Set ($39.89 at DVD Pacific) A very fun anime about an unconventional vampire girl.

I caught this movie on cable... and I am glad I did... because (as a fan of the old TV Series)... I did not like this movie at all. So it is one I won't be adding to my collection. I do hope you enjoy it much more then I did though!

I have never seen the series. Maybe this helps to enjoy this movie.

[addicted2dvd]

yes... that could help quite a bit. I know I felt the same way about the Dukes of Hazzard movie. But yet a friend of mine that never seen the series really enjoyed the movie.

I'm one of those who never saw the series and I loved the movie! I think of it like a lighter True Lies...

I got in the mail today...


Criss Angel: Mindfreak: Halloween

I am looking forward to checking this guy out. There is 2 bonus episodes from season 1 on the disc. Maybe I will check those out... and save the Halloween special for my October Marathon.

[goodguy]

I'm on the fence with this. I enjoyed the first two seasons, but found the third to be a big letdown.

I totally agree with you, I was hooked on S1 & 2, but S3 was at least 30% off the money.
Will be hoping to watch this new series during the week ahead

Any verdict yet?

I've seen some of the show before in reruns on Nick at Nite.  I enjoyed the show and ended up getting the DVD set earlier this year.  I also really enjoyed the movie.  It's not the same as the show, but it is still entertaining.

That is cool Marie. I am glad you were able to enjoy both. I believe what part of my problem is.. is I grew up watching these shows (Get Smart, Dukes of Hazzard, Incredible Hulk)... so they hold a special place in my heart as childhood memories. So in my mind the least little change to the way it was to me is like... That isn't right! How could they screw that up so badl?!?! I know it makes little sense... but it is the way some of us old fans feel when we see movies like these. Though it does seem to be hit and miss... as I loved the Bewitched movie... and that went way off of the series.

Oh I know what you mean and I understand.  I grew up watching The Dukes of Hazzard..probably my favorite show for a long time.
I gave the movie version a chance...I ..well.  I won't say I hated it, because there were a few things that were fine, but they really messed up most of the characters...made Uncle Jessie a stoner...Bo was talking like he loved the General Lee like a woman or something...Daisy..well.  She was really just there as eye candy.  So trust me, I understand about not liking some of the movies after having seen the tv shows.

Oh..I liked the new Bewitched movie too.  I thought the way it was done was interesting.
