Gorgeous film set in 1965 coming of age/never quite fitting in journey of boy scout Sam and storyteller Suzy falling in love and running away,well to the other side of the 16ft Island they live on :D

I was on the journey with them and I didn't want it to end.Funny,thought provoking,quirky and beautifully shot and Billy Murray as Suzy's dad :thumbup:


Finally saw this last night. Very entertaining and well done. Bill Murray, Ed Norton, Bruce Willis and the kids were fantastic. Kinda reminded me of Little Miss Sunshine in a way (independent film that was very well done and funny).

Yaaay! I hadn't heard about this movie but im definitely going to see it. I love The Royal Tenenbaums, so kooky and clever. Can't wait! :)



double featuring it with Ted tommorrow. i hated the Royal Tenebaums tho., but this move looked interesting and fit nicely into our post Ted viewing time slot.
If you have a spare GA, please PM. Billy is still looking.

no i havent. may just have to give it a looksee.
Now what we have to understand is that this comes from an extremely clever and skillful program, that has manipulated us into ways of thinking that may be contrary to our own interests, but beneficial to the interests of the powers that be... beneficial to the interests of those who control our lives, and tax us until we have hardly a penny left to spend, take our money, and plough it into the creation of huge, armed bureaucracies, which exist to oppress us. We live in a society today where we may not make decisions, to explore our own consciousness. If I am not sovereign over my own consciousness, then I am sovereign over nothing.

Just watched "Our Idiot Brother" with my sons. thought it was going to be a stupid-humor movie like Step brothers, but it was not. Had some stupid humor and it was actually a feel-good movie, we all enjoyed it. Had a lot of unnecessary male nudity and f-bombs

I watched "Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son about his Father" last night, which some friends had recommended.

What a sad story. From IMDB:

"In 2001, Andrew Bagby, a medical resident, is murdered not long after breaking up with his girlfriend. Soon after, when she announces she's pregnant, one of Andrew's many close friends, Kurt Kuenne, begins this film, a gift to the child. Friends, relatives, and colleagues say warm and loving things about Andrew, home movies confirm his exuberance. Andrew's parents, Kathleen and David, move to Labrador where the ex-girlfriend has gone. They await an arrest and trial of the murderer. They negotiate with the ex-girlfriend to visit their grandchild, Zachary, and they seek custody. Is there any justice; is Zachery a sweet and innocent consolation for the loss of their son?"

I watched This Means War.... It was cute, I mostly watched it for Chris Pine and Tom Hardy :lol:
The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

Finally got around to watching "Jeff Who Lives At Home" last night. It's not great but it's not bad either.

Watched Goon on Netflix. Solid, funny movie.

Also watched Dale and Tucker Vs. Evil which turned out to be a good flick as well in the Comedy / Horror genre.
