Movie ideas?
- Thread starter Laurelin
- Start date
Liam Neeson fans should see "Rob Roy" if they haven't. That's one that I watch every time it's on. I can be about to go to bed, scrolling through the movies and such that are currently playing and see it. 3 hours later, I'm going to bed knowing that I have to drag my butt out of bed soon, but hey, I got to watch Rob Roy :rofl1:
It might be too close to action/adventure, but I really liked The Usual Suspects. It has a twist!
Bottle Shock is surprisingly intense, and really good.
Death at a Funeral, the original British version is hilarious.
The Dinner Game is side-splittingly funny; it's in French.
The Birdcage with Robin Williams is very funny.
I really liked The King's Speech.
The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia is a fascinating documentary.
The Life and Hard Times of Guy Terrifico; great mockumentary about a country music supersensation from Canada. Quirky.

Loved that movie!
A series I WILL one day own is the Once Upon a Time in China series. Really beautiful, story and cinematography. You can tell Jet Li put his whole heart into the effort.
Also loved Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. I need to find where I stashed my copy so I can watch it. I know where my copy of Ever After is though!
Laur, if you haven't seen it, that's one you might really like.

I really like Dustin Hoffman. I am going to try and fine Little Big Man as I've never seen it.
I LOVED Kramer vs. Kramer from the late 70's, I believe. But I watched it on netflix one night a few months ago and was amazed how good I thought it was, and couldn't believe I had never seen it. But great great acting and storyline, especially great acting from the kid. I later learned he was the youngest to receive an Oscar nomination.

Never seen Pan's Labyrinth, but I am a weirdo who often watches somewhat intense and/or depressing movies multiple times. Mystic River is one of my favorites, and really for most... that's like a watch one-time kind of movie - it's pretty dark, depressing, and somewhat slow at times, but god I just LOVE the emotion in it (not to mention the leads - Tim Robbins, Kevin Bacon, Sean Penn <33)
I've been in this mood as well, especially since I haven't been to a movie since "Knocked Up" was in theaters. lol
I recently watched "The Vow", and I would like to get my money back as well as that hour and forty-five minutes of my life.
I also just watched "War Horse", and of course I loved it. However, I first read the book in 1986, and I loved the book as a young girl, so it was inevitable that I loved the movie.
But, for my movie suggestion, I suggest "Warrior". It. was. awesome. Hands down one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

I have a weird taste in movies. Anything remotely like Step Brothers (and any Will Ferrel movie) is a must-see for me. I also love (and this is hard to describe so bear with me) any kind of one-night epic life-changing for the main character type of movie. For example, Nick and Norah's infinite playlist, Take Me Home Tonight, Valentines Day, New Years Eve, etc. I also looooove any true love story. Like The Notebook (or any of the Nicholas Sparks renditions) or (and I know this is up for debate with most lol) The Twilight saga. I also love most horror movies. I also really like vampire/werewolf movies. I love Blood and Chocolate but they're not exactly werewolves I guess.
I watched Blood and Chocolate, I really liked that movie.
I like werewolf movies lol.
Oh! 500 Days of Summer was REALLY good to and I don't usually like movies like that.
The Notebook, of course, is one of my all time favorites.
And I am a HUGE HUGE HUGE Tom Hanks fan. I own all of his movies but Road to Per... whatever its called lol
Saving Private Ryan is my all time favorite movie, so everyone should see it Also, Cast Away was awesome.

Dakotah, it's "Road To Perdition". A very intense movie it was.
One of my odies but goodies favorites is "You've Got Mail". I actually watched it last night. It's a good movie, lots of funnies, and I get a kick out of the whole AOL stuff since I remember all that like it was yesterday. lol
I also love "The Notebook" (the movie...the book was kinda "what tha *#^*?!"). I haven't seen "Dear John", but I'd like to. I heard people liked "The Last Song", but I cannot stand Miley Cyrus, and I'm just baffled as to why she would ever be cast in a movie.
