Last movie you watched?

Saw The Departed in the theatre Friday night. I can't believe movies cost a fucking tenner these days. Still, it was a good film and I have no regrets. Classic Scorsese.

Strangers With Candy. It had its moments, but I think it would have been better if it included more of those elements of the show that make it so endearing. I missed the 'after school special' style, and Colbert's nuggets of wisdom just don't sound as evil without the sad, tinkly music playing in the background. Overall, though, I'd say it was definitely worth my time.

I was really disappointed when I saw this in the theater, had very high hopes, I was sure that this was one TV--->feature film that would break the stigma of not living up to its potential, but I soon realized they had gone the way of Night at the Roxbury :p

The last movie I saw was:

I am a huge fan of documentaries in general and I thought they did a great job with this one, Bill Clinton makes an appearance and is awesome! :D

Highly recommend this one =D
 
Borat, laughed my fucking ass off. So much so, that I think I was offending the people in front of me (laughing at the gay people and crazy religious fanatics).
 
^^^ yeah I enjoyed that movie the first time I saw it, partly(or mostly) because I was stoned beyond belief, and made the mistake of thinking it was a great/hilarious movie.

saw it again, sober this time, and couldn't even make it all the way through, what a piece of shit :(
 
Holla at ya boy.

Annie Hall. I don't think I've ever seen any Woody Allen movies before this one. It was one long, awkward, over-caffeinated description of sexual tension. I enjoyed it.
 
Dr. Strangelove. Why oh why have I never seen this before!? Amazing film.
 
^ indeed. :) you can't fight in here - this is the war room!

i just watched 'the da vinci code'. it was a pleasant diversion.

Long post.

i hired out a whole bunch of dvds last week and the last one that i watched was sylvia. basically i didn't think it was great but it still managed to make me cry at the end. i think the reason why i did though can mostly be attributed to the fact that i know that she was a real person who was extremely talented (even though i haven't read any of her stuff, i've heard, and i will) and i guess learning a bit about her life and her pain and eventual death just struck a nerve. also it caused me to go off on a little bit of a tangent in my own head about talented people, artist, etc. i do feel however that my having an emotional reaction to this movie was because i was trying to get something out of the story, i don't actually believe that the deliverance of the story through the medium of film was effective or powerful enough in this particular case. but that's mostly the director's/actors fault.

also i think that nicole kidman - as much as i dislike her, did a much better job in the hours than gwyneth paltrow did in this film.

other movies that i also watched in the last week were: the assassination of richard nixon - which i pretty much hired out solely because i love sean penn and think he's a great actor. his performance in this was only standard though. i thought that the character that he plays was very sweet (until he flips out an kills all those people that is ;)) and that he held some very interesting social and political views which i personally empathise with.

and basis instinct... basic instinct was one of those ‘i can't believe you've never seen it’ movies for me, so when i saw it sitting on the shelf in the video store i decided that it was about time that i finally saw it. in summary, pretty much all that was going through my head for the duration of it were these two things: 'wow there's a lot of sex scenes in this movie', and 'heh, sharon stone has breast implants. didn't know that.'

next up i’ve got breakfast at tiffany's and the machinist to go. although i probably won’t have time to see both of them before i have to take all the movies back. damn.
