Finally opened the Netflix envelope that had been sitting there for 2 weeks & watched Valkyrie.  Much better than I expected.  Not sure why it got dumped on so much.

Tom Cruise.

Grey Fox

The Blind Side, Michael Oher's story. Pretty good movie, tear jerker all the way.

Happy to see the dude is a Ravens.

Also, they use bluegum in it. 1st time I hear it outside of the thread we had about it.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

Three Amigos is on. Perfect for a sunday morning.

2001 - A Space Odyssey.

The movie looks even more fantastic in 1080p resolution. It remains one of my two most aesthetically pleasing movies (the other is Barry Lyndon).

I'm Here, a bizarre 30 minute long roboromance by Spike Jonze set in what appears to be present day LA.  Aside from the existence of computer case head robots, 8 track head robots, and mannequin head robots living alongside humans.  Even stranger is that the website only allows a very small number of people per day to watch

The Taking of Pelham 123, liked it a lot.

I hope it was the original one, and not that bastardized remake.

Yes, yes it does.

For added fun, go check out the HAL 9000 Experience.  The screensaver alone is worth its weight in gold.

Remake, I like Juan TresVueltas as a bad guy. The original is on Netflix, plan on watching it soon.

Danny Zuko is no Robert Shaw.

The Hangover. Crazy shit. Especially since we can all relate to the crazy shits we all done drunk.

Have to check at home, I can't install anything at work. :)

Also watched Casino and Blazing Saddles yesterday in the HD glory.

Blu rays ordered on the cheap from Amazon UK (thanks you, weak GBP) and on their way to me:
Tropic Thunder Unrated, The Professional, Watchmen Director's Cut, Band of Brothers.

My blu ray player doesn't like MOV and WMV movies from external hd, which is ok; it plays all other formats without much problem (including MKV and VOB; for a handful of files it complains about codecs missing). Saves me the hassle of burning my movies/series to disk.

Are you saying you find the movie at all realistic?  :lmfao:
