    Oh, I love Tin Cup. Kevin & Rene are so cute together.

    and Anne, you know Giving up the ghost is on my list of Top 5 all-time favorite movies. (it probably is for most Marg fans!) and I also had a chance to see Louise in Heaven must wait. She was so charming.

    a couple of canadian movies...

    Fido - i just watched this one. It was pretty good. It is this quirky movie about dealing with the outbreak of zombies. They found a way to domesticate the zombies, and use them as servants and is set in this 50's era type society. The movie is about a boy who befriends his zombie and names him Fido.

    Bon Cop Bad Cop - this movie was pretty big in canada, it is basically a cop action movie. It has french in it, but is really funny.

    Labyrinth and Requiem for a Dream are always on the list for movies nights around here.

    I've also see Dan in Real Life but wasn't fond of it so it went off about 1/4 of the wya though.

    omag i had this movie!!! i didn't like it that much so i traded it in. i like Dave Foley in NewsRadio so i figured the movie would be pretty good.

    not sure if i put this movie down in any of my posts:
    -This Space Between Us= Vanessa Marcil, Poppy Montgomery, Eric Palladino, Alex Kingston, Jeremy Sisto, and Leslie Bibb.

    interesting movie a little slow but interesting.

    i'm sure some Carmine Giovinazzo fans have heard of his movie "Fallen Arches". it was made 8 years ago. it's not too bad, very nice to see Carmine without his shirt on (haha) and weird to hear him cursing but other than that it's ok.

    I know this is a B movie but I have it on DVD! :lol:

    This is one of my favorite movies ever! See, I had a thing for Robert Sean Leonard when I was in my 'tweens. :lol:


    I've seen this more than a decade ago! Last month they were playing it on the Hallmark Channel. The actress who played Beth played Jennifer Morrison's mother in the film Surviving Christmas. Talk about some House connection! :lol: Brooke Adams, the other bridesmaid, is Tony Shalhoub's wife.

    They used to play this on our local channel on late nights way before there was cable TV. I love this movie! Plus, William McNamara is in it! :lol:

    I saw this at the cinema! I had a thing for Wil Wheaton back then. BTW, Jerry Orbach played his Mafioso father. :p

    Don't forget that Brad Pitt was in this movie too! Actually this movie is pretty well-known.


    Hahaha! OMG, we had this on tape way back in the early '80s.

    I think I've seen almost all of the Merchant-Ivory films and this is one of the best, along with A Room With A View.

    I so love this whodunit film! This was such a hoot! Madeline Khan was also in it.

    This was such a funny movie! I love the giant popcorn thing they had going at the end! I love Val Kilmer. :lol:

    One of the best films about poker, ever. And you've got Melina Kanakaredes in it.

    I love this! Pirate DJ all the way! Plus, Samantha Mathis was also in this film.

    Hahaha! I agree I love this movie. Rene was great in it.

    I've seen this TV movie too. They always play it on the Hallmark Channel.

    I love this movie! I even have the DVD. :lol: Jennifer Connelly was such a pretty 14 year old.


    To add some of my own to the list:

    Cake—With Heather Graham, Sandra Oh, David Sutcliffe, Sarah Chalke and Cheryl Hines.

    Stella--- With Bette Midler, Trini Alvarado and Stephen Collins

    Willow---With Val Kilmer and Warwick Davis

    Gattaca is an amazing movie. I loved it!

    Labryinth is equally amazing. I owns it on DVD.


    A Movie I think everyone should hear about but nobody probably has:

    The Time Traveler's Wife- To be released in June. It's going to be the best movie ever!

    (From the book synopsis) This is the remarkable story of Henry DeTamble, a dashing, adventuresome librarian who travels involuntarily through time, and Clare Abshire, an artist whose life takes a natural sequential course. Henry and Clare's passionate love affair endures across a sea of time and captures the two lovers in an impossibly romantic trap.

    I've been waiting for it for 3 years.
