I've seen the books all over the book store but I thought it was some shitty ass teen emo novel because the titles were so cheesy..
But I saw one of the movies on Netflix was rated really high (I didn't notice it was the second part) and I watched it.
I want to say the trailer is really AWFULLY shitty but hell, this movie was brilliant! I loved it.. totally loved it.. action, very suspenseful, meanwhile you're trying to figure out what happened.. AND.. for being a foreign film (not the stereotypical Hollywood shit films) it was very well made.
The only down side is that it is in Swedish so I had to watch it with subtitles.. but it's always better to watch a movie in its original language (I hate dubbed).

I created a profile in my friend's Netflix account just so I could use it's suggestions feature. I've rated about 450 flicks, and it's recommendations are so so far off for me it's ridiculous. It's pretty much just a way for me to knock down ones I've seen now. I'm beginning to think I've seen every American made movie that I would like, and I have nothing against American cinema at all. Time to conquer more foreign ones I guess.

How about you start with this one? I know I will. I mentioned it a month or two ago but I'm bumping it because it's finally showing a release date of December 29th.

Nice, I remember seeing the trailer and wanting to see it, but had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder.

Anyone seen Machete yet? (searched but couldn't find anything)
I saw it today, and it was amazing. Gore and violence, funny, taking the piss out of itself, great cast...
It's wasn't a "great" film by traditional standards, but it sure was awesome

FTP! NOW!
OT: Been re-watching "The Godfather" lately. Haven't seen it since I was a kid and wanted to see it from a maturer light now.

i'm quite excited for this! but, hey, why make him wait to watch foreign flicks. i found myself in the same boat and have been watching foreign flicks almost exclusively lately. my advice: start off by spending a bit of time in asia- korea, japan, eventually some chinese stuff

Keep in mind that what makes a movie collection respectable is not the sheer number of movies but their quality, representing your taste. As I can't think of anything near 750 good movies, I suspect there's a lot of crap in there.
