I did a search and wasn't able to find this topic so if there is one please feel free to delete this thread and direct me to the existing one.

I haven't been to the movies or rented very many in the past few years so I have a pretty large selection to choose from these days. I started with these last night:

[Snowparrot]

Last Sunday, while killing time in a strange city, I watched Score: A Hockey Musical It was cute, campy and corny-- and Canadian, of course!

[Tiki Torches]

Loved it.

[ph4ever]

Perhaps not the last but a standout

[VanillaGrl]

Finally

[Ol'_'96'er]

[pbans]

[sonofabeach]

The new Nightmare On Elm Street movie. It blew but it was better than working.

[Parrothead27330]

Get Him To The Greek

It was good for some laughs, but I think the majority won't get it

[PetalMel]

We actually went to the theater to see "Hereafter." Don't bother....

I heard Inception was excellent! I'll have to see it when it comes out on DVD.

[Tiki Torches]

I never got around to seeing Inception either. It's playing at the $1 movie place around the corner so I may have to catch it soon.

Watched this last night and beyond another great star turn by Philip Seymour Hoffman and a few cool tunes, I must say it really wasn't all that great. I would have loved to learn more about the pirate radio era but this wasn't it. In fact, a lot of the music wasn't even from the time period (1966) that it was set in. Major fail.

"O'Horten" A drama focused on a life-changing moment in 67-year-old train engineer Odd Horten's existence: the evening of his retirement.

Hey Moog, you ever watch anything a normal person would watch?





Just kidding

[moog]

Normal as in?

At one point in my life I watched 300 movies a year. I've watched plenty of mainstream in my life. Time is now short and I need to expand (catch up?). I still do watch what "normal people" watch. My last movie in the theater was "Toy Story 3" and "Inception". I can't honestly use my free time to sit through Transformers 2 when I'm watching the French New Wave for the first time.

To paraphrase Roger Ebert, if that makes me a snob, then so be it.

I would never call you a snob (different strokes for different folks and all), but I do find it interesting the films you mention are usually something that I've never even heard of, let alone seen.

I mentioned Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind to a friend recently and they said, you're talking about movies I've never heard of. I realize it wasn't exactly the most mainstream of movies but was it really that much under the radar? I mean, it did star Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet.

[pair8head]

That's one I would consider mainstream.

[Tiki Torches]

I figured my friend might actually have a case since it's a Focus Feature, the same folks behind Lost In Translation. Yes, they both have well known stars in them but they're from an independent film company. While I love popcorn munchin' blockbusters as much as the next person, it's these type of movies that stay with me longer. In fact, those two would have to be two of my very favorite movies from the past ten years or so.
