So I saw the movie "Hide and Seek" last night. |
|
The one with DeNiro and Dakota Fanning. It was pretty good. I have to admit I was 90% through before I figured it out. Then I came home and felt like shit. Totally undid all the floaty, happy feeling I had from seeing "The Wedding Date" the day before. Dammit.

2. I'm with you. I wish I hadn't gone. |

Although I must say that it was the first "scary" movie I have seen in awhile that wasn't totally predictable. I honestly didn't know where they were going with it.
I want to see "Hitch" next weekend when it comes out.. with Will Smith. That looks funny and I love Will Smith!
:pals:

7. Last weekend for some unknown reason, I ended up watching |
|
Night of the Living Dead and Resident Evil.
I had to turn it over to Nick at Night and watch some Fresh Prince to get to sleep.
I think my imagination just goes into overdrive with those movies.
I think Hitch looks great. I love Will Smith and Kevin James. I saw Kevin James do stand up on Comedy Central one time and he was hilarious.
Back to scary movies...I prefer to watch the TV editted version...I'm such a wimp. :)

4. Every so often, I forget what they do to me and I'll watch one.... |
|
The Sixth Sense was the last one, I believe. It was a great story, but I had nightmares for weeks.

10. Yes!!!!! It was TERRIBLE |
|
I DO NOT recommend if you do not like scary movies. Some of the worst things I have ever seen in a horror movie. I couldn't get some of those images out of my mind for two weeks. It's not a good thing to do to yourself. :(

"child" and "actor" are two words that rarely belong together

12. This admin is enough horror show for me. |

I don't like scary movies. Actually I don't mind being scared in a movie if that's not the whole point of it. Some flicks we have seen at home the last month that were really great: Il Postino Shower Anchorman (we were all laughing out loud, especially the fight scene. Plus there's a slam on Bush at the end. ) Children of Heaven Together
We had a run of good luck and some great flicks. I really didn't like Sideways though. I guess I'm the only person who didn't. But it had a great tailgate party!
Can't think of a scary movie I actually enjoyed.
Favorite all time flick- Down By Law!!!!

13. So Anchorman was funny huh? |
|
I've debated picking it up at the video store but I wasn't sure if it was actually going to be funny or just cheesy.
You're not the only one that didn't like Sideways, I've heard a lot of people say they hated it. I didn't even know it existed until the Oscars and now there is a buzz, so NOW people are going.
A buzz doesn't always mean it's good.
What was it last year, that About Schmidt was nominated? People started talking so I went ahead and rented it. I thought, you have to be kidding me, after I saw it. I guess I didn't find the "story" in a self-centered, retired guy in a late life crisis driving around Nebraska in a motor home, feeling like a "do-gooder" because he sends a few bucks and a self indulgent letter to a child in a third world country. That was the whole movie... sorry about the spoiler for people who didn't see it. But I guess Jack Nicholson with a comb over made people think OSCAR, OSCAR, OSCAR. :shrug:

14. It's actually cheesy funny. |

It was ha ha funny for me, tears rolling down funny for my kids. (teens). It was perfect for us in between the others. In Sideways speak it's a reisling. Let me know if you liked it, or hated it , or what. Ya I thought the same of About Schmidt, thought I did love As Good As It Gets. But Anchorman was a kick in the ass. Kolya! A great movie! And in the horror category I can say I loved Attack of the Giant Leeches and The Brain that Wouldn't Die but those were Mystery Science Theater so its satire & may not count. Aloha!

15. Have you seen Happy Texas? |
|
That's a good one for laughs. Makes me smile just thinking about it. Drags a little toward the end at one point but overall really funny and wonderful. I love Wayne Wayne Wayne, Jr.
