Weekend Movie Marathon

Unwatched DVDs

The first weekend marathon after a long month of only horror. With all the movies I had given to me lately how could I not do an Unwatched DVDs marathon? I am now up to 450 movies on DVD in my collection that I haven't watched yet! While it will be quite some time before I get this number down to anything really manageable... I feel the need to work on it this weekend.

Below is the list of 450 movies I have yet to watch. There is movies in this list that I have seen before. Just not since getting the DVDs. I am also included which are shipped but haven't arrived yet... as they may get here in time for this weekend's marathon. Those few titles I am putting in blue bold.

As always... if you see a title that you either like and want to recommend... or you are curious about feel free to ask for a review. No promises... but I will see if I can fit them in. Just keep in mind... I most likely won't watch any horror or thrillers this weekend... what with watching so much horror last month I still feel like taking a bit of a break from it.

My Thoughts:
Now... I know I never seen this "movie" before as I just got the DVD. The thing is... I remember this storyline pretty well. I know I have seen it. I have both Superman: The Animated Series as well as Batman: The Animated Series... I could be wrong here... but I am thinking that maybe this is a 2 or 3 part episode of one (or both) of these series that they also released as a separate movie? But that is fine... either way I enjoyed it.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

Plot:
SUPERstars Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson deliver unstoppable fun in this hilarious hit comedy directed by Ivan Reitman (Meatballs, Stripes).

But when Jenny turns out to be a needy, neurotic mess, Matt wants to call it quits. Jenny is crushed by the news and will stop at nothing to exact sweet revenge.

It's an outrageous super-comedy that proves breaking up can be hard to do – and downright dangerous!

My Thoughts:
This is one I caught on cable a while back... and remember enjoying it.... wanting to eventually add it to my collection. And thanks to a friend I now have it. After watching the DVD I still find it an entertaining and fun little romantic comedy... with a bit of a twist. It does get a little on the silly side at times. But definitely worth seeing. I would have liked to of seen a few more extras on the DVD though. Maybe a gag reel and possibly a commentary track with the stars... they must of had fun making this one.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

[Tom]

My vote is for "Eulogy" and "Notting Hill".
And when can we finally expect yours and Brittany's classic Star Wars trilogy marathon? 

[Kathy]

I'm excluding horror - I think you've seen enough of those for a while!

I'm trying to pick some that I think you might really enjoy:

The Accused
Crash
Good Will Hunting
A History of Violence
King Kong
A Knight's Tale
The Last Seduction
Mona Lisa Smile (w/ Brit)
Monsters Ball
Mr. Holland's Opus (w/ Brit) - It's not a musical Pete
National Treasure
The Pursuit of Happyness (w/ Brit)
Radio (w/ Brit)
Star Wars (w/ Brit)
Tombstone w/ Roger! 

[addicted2dvd]

I been waiting on her for Star Wars... but if she don't want to watch it before too long I may have to do it without her. Next weekend she goes to her grandmother's house. So maybe she will want to do it with me the following weekend.

[Tom]

Oh, yes. Good Will Hunting. I must have missed it in the list. This one also gets my vote.
I could also give a vote to "Mary Poppins", but you said no horror

Thanks Kathy... didn't realize The Pursuit of Happyness was still on my unwatched list... watched that one a while back!

Mr. Holland's Opus reads like a musical!

[Rogmeister]

Well, Pete and I can't watch Tombstone together...too long a commute for me!    I actually haven't watched that movie yet...maybe I should soon?

Pete, I'm not positive because I haven't watched most of Superman: The Animated Series yet but I think "The Batman-Superman Movie" is the combination of the 3-part episode World's Finest which is in volume 2 of the Superman set.  World's Finest Comics was the title of the comic book that Superman and Batman used to team up regularly in. 

[addicted2dvd]

You must be right Roger... as the Batman Superman movie had a subtitle in the opening credits that said World's Finest. And I do have that Superman animated series set... so as I figured I did see it before... just cut up into the 3 episodes.

Thanks Roger!

[Rogmeister]

One of these days, I'll get back to the Superman set.  Animated wise, I've been concentrating on Justice League lately.  First I watched the first season of Justice League Unlimited (the third season overall) and now I've gone back to watching the first season of Justice League (first season overall).
