Go to Post In real life (IE when you go to apply your engineering skills to tasks in industry) there will be constraints on all sorts of things - many of which may or may not be "fair" or even "intelligent". You must learn to either work around them or use them to your advantage - preferably a bit of both. - OScubed [more]

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

I now work at a movie theater...free movies....YES!

The last movie I saw was School for Scoundrels. Not too bad.

I just saw The Departed. It was good, but kind of long. Still, it was definitely worth $8.

Be warned, You need to watch movies, as many as possible, people coming in will ask you how good a movie was, what awards has it won, is it more like movie A or Movie B, etc. People also have a bad habit of asking for tickets with out knowing the name of a movie, for example, Can I have 2 for that movie with Nicholas Cage in it, or worse Will Ferrel, come on he did 6 movies in 2005. Some times people even ask, for the movie with that guy from another movie. Try to figure out what movie people want to know "Do you have the movie with that guy from wedding crashers" Of course that could be Click(Christopher Walken), You me and Dupree(Owen Wilson), The Break Up(Vince Vaughn), or even Talledega Nights(Will Ferrel), all of which had previews out at the same time. Any way, get to know your movies, and if you don't know them then find out who does, nothing solves you being stumped better than, I'm not sure but you can ask the person ripping tickets, he is usually pretty good.

Any way, back to the topic, I saw an early screening of School for Scoundrels, my initial reaction was that it was good but once I digested it I realized it really wasn't good at all, if you want a quick laugh go see it, If you want a hysterical movie that you will quote later then keep waiting for Blades of Glory.

I finally bought Airplane, It is amazing, if you haven't seen it then do it, now. Better yet, rent it, caddy shack, Animal House, Stripes, and Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy grail, and then have a weekend in your house.

I am a little behind on movies because I am away at school but I will catch up when I go home.

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

The last movie I watched was a Sundance film (British) called Dirty Filthy Love. It's about a man with OCD and Tourettes Syndrome dealing with divorce and other relationships... found it in the comedy section of Blockbuster and while I will admit there were some funny parts, I do not consider it a straight-out comedy because some parts were very, very sad.

It was a good enough movie to make me take risks on other Sundance films (in other words, I liked it)

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

DVD: Team America World Police. First time watching it- very funny.

In the theater: Borat. What a great movie. I love smaller budget films that are unique and totally blow out big budget (big actor) movies.

Recent veiwings:

Open Season
A humerous little movie that comes a little too close to the much better Over the Hedge for my taste. There are a couple of outright guffaws (the Elliot ruined Bear show for one and the dam break) but mostly nothing really stands out that can be commited to long term memory. C

Happy Feet
I was surprised by this little gem. It's a very simple story (be yourself no matter what everybody else says and you'll end up changing the culture) told in a very unique manner with the odd music mashups. It was quite fun to watch.
This movie made me smile and was my favorite movie from last year. A+

The Pursuit of Happyness
Happyness is definately a vehicle for Will Smith to show off his acting skills. And he is very good here. Definately award worthy marterial. Good work from his son Jaden as well.
The movie is a bit grim but has a streak of hopefullness throughout it. It ends very abruptly but not a bad way to spend time at the movies. B

Prestige
It's official: Christopher Nolan is my favorite director.
THis twisty turner little mind bender that challnages the audiance as well as entertains them is power by terrific performances throughout from the high caliber cast. Particularly Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale who are amazing in the film! A+

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

I think I attempted to watch American Commandos. I bought it with another VHS for like, three dollars. Well, it was produced in like, 1984. It's terrible. Never watch it. Not only is it one of those extremely unrealistic war movies where the people will shoot an M16 in each hand, but the acting is miserable... I mean, I was almost embarrassed to watch it myself. I bought the movie Unholy along with it. Produced in 1987 I think. Meh, it'll be just as bad. My advice to you, don't buy movies made before 1990.
