Wanted to give this thread a bump to see what people have seen lately.
I just saw The Lincoln Lawyer. The story was unpredictable and I thought the movie was great right down to the wardrobe and music.
The Adjustment Bureau...not gonna lie, I cried. lol I thought the movie was entertaining, but I don't think I'd nominate it for an Oscar. It definitely had less action than I thought it would.
Little Fockers. I love this series, but this one was the worst one by far.
I've also rented a bunch, but the names escape me. :whip: There was one really good one that I would have recommended as well. I'll have to do some thinking!
*~LiSa-LoO~*
Some others...
The Tourist - I love me some Johnny Depp, but dear God this movie was awful.
The Next 3 Days - I thought this was an interesting story. Russell Crowe was great in it. There was a scene near the end that was a bit ridiculous, but for the most part I really liked it.
The Nobel Son - Loved this. I thought it was hilarious. Great performances by all.
The Box - A freaky movie. I didn't like the story in the end though.
Salt - So much potential, and nothing delivered. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's right up there with 40 Days of Night. I can never walk out of a theatre, I have to see a movie through to the end even if it sucks. Ian was falling asleep in the threatre and I kept waking him up b/c he had to be tortured too! lol
On the topic of movies as well, I remember Shutter Island was a preliminary 2011 Oscar Contender. Does anyone else think it completely got snubbed???

The Town IS amazing. Jeremy Renner is badass.
Also, you guys should watch "Moon" with Sam Rockwell, so amazing.

I wanted to see the Lincoln Lawyer, but Mark thought I wanted to see that just for Matthew McConaughey and he doesn't like him, so I didn't get to see it. Disappointed to hear how good it was now!
I also wanted to see Little Fockers since I love that series as well. I am glad I didn't waste my money. I will have to wait for it to come onto TMN.
We did attempt to watch The Other Guys last night even though I have a hate on for Will Ferrell. The movie totally sucked! We shut it off half way through because we couldn't stand it.
We generally don't go out to see the newest movies, but we have seen some older ones recently too:
Dinner with Schmucks
Due Date
Going the Distance
Time Travelers Wife
Extraordinary Measures
and my favourite of the ones we've seen lately is, Everybody's Fine with Robert De Niro, Drew Barrymore, Sam Rockwell and Kate Beckinsale.
I'm looking forward to seeing Buried on Friday and seeing Toy Story 3 again the following week :D

I think it did. I actually really liked Shutter Island. There were many twists to the story. I have watched in a few times now.

The Lincoln Lawyer is still in theatres (At least it was Saturday)...make Mark go! lol
I want to see Dinner with Schmucks, it looked funny. Toy Story 3 too! So sad I never ended up seeing that in 3D. I don't really like the new 3D but I think that would have been a good one.
I saw Buried a little while ago too and thought it was surprisingly good. I liked the ending a lot.

I liked and hated the end of Buried at the same time - but def a great movie. And def another one snubbed by the Oscars..

So many screw ups in that movie... the battery life on the phone keeps jumping from 1 bar to 2... then back to 1. He holds the phone upside down so many times while he is talking into it
