i'll recommend two that come to my mind right now: Bully and Suburbia
1) "bully" is based on a true story which makes it even more intense. good one to share with the friends. one of the deepest and darkest movies i've personally ever seen.

2) "subUrbia" (the 1996 one) is a very underrated movie in my opinion. this movie has actually not even come out on dvd. i have to watch it on my vcr.
fortunately however, you can watch it in its entirety on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsad_ehuQYo

| I loved Scott Pilgrim vs the World. Excellent visual design and pretty snappy writing. |

| Saw the trailer for a new M Knight Shyamalan movie. Someone needs to put a restraining order on that guy. |

Was it that Airbender one? Yeah, that looks lame.
I quite liked Signs and The Village, though. |

| Nope, he's got another one still coming. Btw The Last Airbender got some of the lowest ratings in recent history, 7% on Rottentomatoes. |

I didn't even know it was out yet. Oh well, saves me 1.99 at the Redbox!
The thing about his films is that they involve a lot of effect without the cost of effect, it seems to me. Like there is usually very little cgi in his movies, or even extravagant sets - just good actors and an ok script. It's no wonder he keeps getting jobs - studios must love him. But I'm sure that is going to change soon enough... |

I was wondering why he kept getting work, maybe it's his ability to keep cost low (as you mentioned). I hadn't looked into the budgets of his projects.
Where do you live that Redbox costs 1.99? It's $1 US here. |

| I live in Denver. Maybe it's $1? I don't go to it very often as it usually entails entering the legal space of a Wal-Mart or a McDonald's. Maybe it authorizes 1.99 and I never paid attention otherwise? Either way, it's no wonder Redbox is puttying local Blockbusters out of business. |

The only possible excuse you could have is that something interrupted you and you didn't catch the movie's end. Cause that was one of the most ing stupid endings I've ever seen, and it's utterly impossible to say one good word about the movie after it's ruined like that. |

| Has anyone seen The Machinist with Christian Bale? Is it worth watching? |
