Saw Act of Valor, Zero Dark Thirty, and 7 Psychopaths. I recommend Zero Dark Thirty.

It's a great movie if you need to induce a nap.

Zero Dark Thirty is on my list. I saw This is 40 last night. It's kind of a sequel to Knocked Up. I found it pretty freaking funny. (sorry if it's been mentioned before) Just also got some movie about Cirque Du Soleil, and I'm excited to see it. I saw a show live last year for the first time and was extremely impressed. Any time I can revisit those stunning acrobatics is worth it in my book, even if the acting sucks.

I've recently seen the following:

"Life of Pi" I loved this movie. I liked the book when I read it about two months ago. This is one of those rare "the movie is really close to the book" movies.

"Zero Dark Thirty" Very good, but it's really not a "war" movie, if that's what you're looking for. I thought it was really well done. Who knows how close to reality it is. It was refreshing that it didn't glorify the Pretender in Chief (Obummer).

"Erased" I balked at getting this one on PPV because it's $10.99. I guess they justify it because it's an "advanced screening". The wife and I had the evening to ourselves so I figured I splurge and get it..... Good CIA/spy movie. The teenager in this movie is so fucking annoying...just like teenagers in real life.
"Evil Dead" Yes, the original! It was on PPV and I couldn't resist. Freaking classic from '81 I think.

EDIT: Almost forgot "No Country for Old Men" I freaking love this movie. I watched it with the closed captioning on for the first time and picked up lots of lines that were lost the other times I watched it. I'm just not that familiar with that supper heavy Texas accent.

I thought the raid sequence wasn't that well done in "Zero Dark Thirty", but I agree, it was pretty good and didn't deify the anointed one.
I Freaking love the original Evil Dead! Probably why I'm reluctant to see the new one, the original was cheesy, campy and fun, the new one looks like none of those.

New Evil Dead is supposed to be campy still I hear.

Saw most of Red Tails last night. Kind of disappointing production for being such a proud part of our history. Mostly good though. After Red Tails, I stumbled across the 1999 masterpiece called "White Boys," about a bunch of wanna be gangster rappers from Holyoke, Iowa. Think of a movie based solely around the infamous Icyhot Stunnaz picture. It was a trap. Wreck that I couldn't take my eyes off of. Basically Gummo meets that Jamie Kennedy wanna-be movie.

Like so?

I actually can't wait for this- Too bad they effed up the most recent one with Kevin Spacey and that hot chick from the surfing movie.

[Bitter Clinger]

Just like that! I call the last one Superman lifts, because that's ALL he does. I wish they would have done Doomsday or Darkseid. But another Kryptonian will be ok, but Zodd has been done before. I'm just glad its not Lex Luthor. At least supes and zodd can hurt, if not kill, each other. BTW how do you imbed vids?

I agree- Doomsday would be freaking awesome!
embed is easy- see the little icons with the world + chain, world + Xed out chain, picture, and film? Click the film, paste the url (link) from the video (youtube) and click OK, viola!

[Bitter Clinger]

Ronin do you have a XBOX? I have that Gods among us game and it is amazing. Think Supes vs Doomsday where YOU control the fight.

Can we get a gamertag sticky here? I know there are several gamers here. I have both a ps3 and 360, I have a WII as well, but I haven't even hooked it up in about 5 years!
