Daz.
The sad thing is that most Americans are far too involved with themselves and their shallow existences to realize they can decide that the mainstream crap we are force fed via our 'superior' media outlets IS indeed crap, and they can, by not viewing/purchasing the crap, therefore force the producers of said crap to raise the bar to the intellectual level that the human race deserves as a whole.

But hell, we did re-elect GW, and no, I vehemently did not cast my vote in his favor, but I guess I have to take one for the team.

'3:10 to Yuma' is good if you like westerns.

'the mist' is good, too.
character is what you do when no one is watching

Hello Sharp. There aren't many good DVD's out any more, but the latest Hary Potter DVD might be worth looking at. I haven't seen it yet, but I've read all the books. It's bad when Hary Potter seems to be the only thing worth renting! Hollywood is going to the dogs! What happened to "Back to the Future," "ET," "Fatal Attraction," "Misery," and "Lethal Weapon?" Those are my favorite movies of all time. It's better to try and find a VHS version of them if you can, because I've noticed that some DVD's of classic movies take out some of my favorit scenes. I first noticed that when I got the "Fatal Attraction" DVD. I guess they took one of my favorite scenes out because they wanted to cram all those interviews and alternative endings on there. What a shame! They should have put all the special features on a separate DVD. I would have gladly paid a little extra for that.

I dunno.
I think it's sad if you think the last Harry Potter movie is the only choice as far as new releases go to rent!

That movie was not that good, and I saw it twice, just to make sure I didn't imagine how horrible it actually was.
The book was better, trust me. I can name a plethora of great movies to rent, some have been posted here.

I saw ' Fracture' a new DVD release with Anthony Hopkins

This is an excellent Hitchcock type legal thriller involving a double jeopardy murder.

Hopkins is outstanding. Movie beuatifully shot in LA

9.5/10

The Bourne Series is a really great series! the newest one Ultimatum is the best of the three. Even if u dont see the first 2 its worth watching!!! :D

My all time fav is Gladiator, The Lord Of The Rings, The Matrix, Rudy.

Michael Moore: "Sicko"

Btw. Bonjorno Dottore Bennicelli :) , I was wondering, while your studio picture certainly is admirable, I find it a little irritating to have it in my face multiple times on a page while reading a thread, then again, may be that's just me. <shrugs>
