Quick film choice question:

'Downfall' or 'Man in a White Suit' (Alex Guiness)  ?

"We have it in our power to begin the world over again"

Downfall, Downfall, Downfall.

Unless you're in the mood for a comedy, then Man in a White Suit.

But Downfall should be mandatory Languish viewing, if only for Hitler memes.

Ed Anger

Downfall. Don't be a Jodl.

I'm going to say Man in the White Suit just to provide some balance.

But that's a solid choice you've got :)

Watch, numbnuts winds up picking "Roman Holiday."

So after Game of Thrones I'm flipping channels on cable, and I see there's a movie playing called Pacific Rim.

Is it any good?

Nothing wrong with Roman Holiday.

I think Salem has lots of potential for a tv series on a small network.  It lacks budget for now and it shows, but the acting is quite decent, and there's actually an intrigue there.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Do you think in three hundred years there'll be movies and TV shows about a cabal of telegenic Jews who control international finance?

I've rewatched a few episodes of Rome this Easter. Atia... oh, Atia.  :blush:

Also, The Red Road from Sundance Networks seems intriguing.

This is a very solid list of the 10 most overrated films:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/10767345/10-most-overrated-films-of-all-time.html

Even though I won't argue any of the films listed (thrice I have tried and failed to finish The Double Life of Veronique), I think that calling them "the 10 most overrated films of all time", is overrating their overratedness.

Grey Fox

Except Skyfall. Skyfall is awesome action.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.
