I recently watched Dead Poets Society - man is that a great movie. One of the best I've ever seen, partly due to the fact that the parents are the antagonists.
I've also seen Raising Arizona last night, it was terrible except for the part where the bunny went up to the grenade and then it blew up.

QFT! Robin Williams can be so underrated at times. I LOVED him in that!

O captain my captain!

My friend was skeptic when I asked her to address me by that name when she wanted my attention

As would many...

Hey ASDF, I just saw the movie "The Road" today, and I found it disturbing yet enlightening and was just wondering if anyone else here has seen it. If you have I would like it if your own insights were shared.

Merged.

A Clockwork Orange is pretty good. i watched that a few days ago.

There's a Milk Bar in NYC that is themed after A Clockwork Orange. Or at least there used to be. A good flick - Stanley Kubrick is talented like that.

Speaking of Kubrick, Full Metal Jacket anyone? "WHAT IS YOUR MAJOR MALFUNCTION, NUMBNUTS?!"

I still have yet to watch A Clockwork Orange. I loved the book though.
haven't watched Full Metal Jacket either. but I watched Cube the other day. pretty awesome movie.

Thanks.

so I just finished watching Labyrinth.

pretty good... it was a little vague, if you ask me, but I like the Goblin world and whatnot; if I could describe it with one word it'd be 'weird' for sure. words are too slow.

I bet you can't guess who my favorite actor was

That's so funny! I actually pulled that DVD off my shelf last weekend and wondered if you had ever seen it given the Bowieness involved. The storyline and the writing was a little odd, but you have to admit the puppeteering was frickin' sweet and the soundtrack is kickass.

Omigosh, I watched that movie a few months ago!

You're being sarcastic, right? He's pretty good in that movie. It's the first (and only) movie I've seen him in...

I agree... the only negative thing I'd have to say about it is that Jareth may have been wearing his pants just a little bit too tight...

the first one. I can't really see the pictures on this screen but it was an '86 movie.

Oh, please...when was Bowie NOT wearing pants that tight in the 1980s?

good point...

you said you've seen the movie. and it's really hard not to notice.
