The Virgin Suicides

Great soundtrack, alright movie.

Miss Cassandra · 01-13-2008, 04:50 PM

Yeah, I haven't seen it in years but its pretty good. It stuck with me for some unknown reason.

Thinking about getting a netflix account so I can get more movies a month. A lot of my friends have it, I hear good things.

I really like it, it seems to ship faster than Blockbuster or Family-Pass. I have tried all three.

I just saw Pinochio and I'm telling you: it's different from the version I have at home. In this version there's a whale and a strange island where he get's almost turned into a mule.
In the version I saw when I was a kid, there was a pierot and a secret room in a basement with a large glowing light. Or am I mixing up stories here?

Anyway, it was nice watching. The cricket reminded me a bit of Hector. The same outfit

He has a lovely voice (the cricket, I wouldn't know about Hector

).

Look at these and tell me that he doesn't look like Hectors avatar:

The Pinocchio I have is the one with the whale and the island. Nice observation about Jiminy Cricket! lol I have heard another version of the story on the radio, but that was a very weird one. Pinnochio killed Jiminy Cricket in the very beginning, right after sending Geppeto to jail. He also almost killed the fairy on accident. And this was an old "classic stories" radio presentation!

**Mari** · 01-15-2008, 07:41 PM

Oh, that definitely doesn't sound like the kid-version...

Nautipus · 01-21-2008, 04:58 PM

I saw Cloverfield....and left just as confused as when I came in. I really enjoyed the movie, but not much was explained. Anyone else see it? Wanna swap theories?

Thain Peregrin Took I · 01-23-2008, 10:01 PM

The Scarlet and the Black - I actually saw it about a month ago, but I forgot to post the review.

Very good movie. It's based on a true story. There are little bits of comedy here and there, but in a good way, not a corny or out-of-place way.

Good movie! I very much enjoy it as well.

**Mari** · 01-24-2008, 10:43 AM

I saw Bucket List a week or so ago. Very good movie, I recommend it! But keep your handkerchief near, you'll need it.

**Mari** · 01-25-2008, 05:56 PM

Just saw one of the weirdest movies ever! The league of gentlemen's apocalypse... A bit of gore, lot of generally weird stuff, but on the overall funny enough. I loved Herr Lipp!

Meriadoc Brandybuck · 01-27-2008, 09:22 PM

The Terminal - A bit long, but still good.

Acalewia · 01-31-2008, 02:32 PM

Meet the Spartans~ Funny and wrong at the same time. Reminded me of the Scary Movie franchise. It poked fun at everything from 300 to Britney to American Idol. The Deal or No Deal segment was imo the funniest part.

Nautipus · 01-31-2008, 02:45 PM

Did anybody here see Cloverfield?

Nerdanel · 02-02-2008, 05:46 PM

The Fountain

I'm not sure.. In some ways it's a beautifully made film, visually. The way it progressed was very nice, too. But there's something about it I'm not that thrilled about..

Anyone else seen it?

Acalewia · 02-03-2008, 08:09 PM

The Kingdom~ Good movie considering the kind of movie it is

Thain Peregrin Took I · 02-04-2008, 02:17 AM

Farenheit 451 - I found it to be kinda boring. It could've been a really good movie, and I'm sure the book was great. Iteresting concept, though. Some of the actors didn't speak very clearly, but that might have just been becuase they weren't able to get very good quality when it was made (1966).

Thain Peregrin Took I · 02-05-2008, 02:30 AM

Sahara - Realy good. Definetly not the average treasure-hunt movie.

**Mari** · 02-05-2008, 06:21 PM

Today being sick and all, I had time to re-watch a few movies: Clueless with Alicia Silverstone and the Road to El Dorado. What can I say? I love Disney and that sort of stuff.
