    The original Hitcher was good enough for me to avoid the remake. I wish I had avoided the remake of The Day of the Jackal (the best thriller novel ever written, and written in 45 days!). I just watched Wall.E and Kung Fu Panda both ok but not as good as I'd hoped

    I want to see Kung Fu Panda. Maybe I'll check it out later.

    I watched Tremors yesterday because I didn't have anything better to do.

    Hancock and The Clone Wars.

    I didn't make it through Clones--too boring--so I made pumpkin bars with cream cheese icing instead. The movie did have an Ein Wants One moment when Baby the Hutt entered the scene.

    Hancock was alright, I guess. Interesting idea but oddly executed enough that I'm still not sure if I liked it at all.

    Just to recommend a really enjoyable foreign film....

    Hors de prix (Priceless)

    It has Audrey Tautou in it. I really wasn't looking forward to watching this movie mainly because I don't enjoy reading subtitles and I really don't like foreign films that much, but I LOVED this movie. It was witty, funny, and had a cute story line. My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I just rented this for the kids and they watched it a million times like they always do. Very cute movie although it pales on about the tenth repetition...and that's because I wasn't sitting through it each time.

    The Noise Machine: published too long ago now. Time to get more out there.

    I liked Hancock. It was refreshingly different. That, and I thought it was hilarious.

    I recently saw Superbad. It was okay. Like Juno, the critics loved it, but I thought it nowhere near what it was praised to be.

    Home Alone last night.

    Still a classic. Just love it. Gets me laughing every christmas.

    Never heard of it.

    At first, I too hated foreign films, but it was either get used to reading subtitles or never watch anything with hubby (who's a huge anime fan).

    Has anyone else seen La Cite des Enfants Perdus? Very odd film that's probably nothing like the one mentioned outside the schmancy Frenchiness.

    That girl in Juno annoyed the crap out of me. So did the soundtrack.

    This is embarrasing, but the last movie I watched? "Zombies, zombies, zombies"... also known as "Zombies vs Strippers". And no, not the Jenna Jameson version... the rip-off...

    (yeah, it was aweful...)

    People rip off Jenna Jameson movies? That's a travesty.

    People rip off everything... I was talking about "Zombie strippers", the movie with her as a normal actress. Not one of her... other... movies. There's apparently a big difference there. I watched the rip-off without her.

    Heartbeeps, with Andy Kaufman and Bernadette Peters. Wonderful little sci-fi film, very effective and original. Hadn't seen it in 20 years before this afternoon. Reminded me of the early John Malkovich vehicle Making Mr. Right in that it was both good scifi and reasonably entertaining. Christopher Guest and Melanie Mayron are also extremely effective in their parts, toward the end of the film, and the makeup and dialogue, plus the standup comic character, give the film some needed whimsy. Could have gone in the terminally cute direction, but didn't.

    She’s hot. If you like phony, pumped up, bleached blond whores.
