The Lives of Others is a fantastic movie...one of the best I've ever seen. So incredibly well acted and moving. It is really sad that the lead actor died not longer after.

We watched "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" last night. Scooterboy was right - we didn't have enough tissues around for this film. Beautifully filmed, acted, everything. This is how movies should be made.

Also saw "Up" recently in the theater - one of the second-run theaters that charge $1.50 for a movie, so it was still around to be seen on the big screen. We all liked it a lot. Much better than anticipated. Anika loves the doggie stuff.

At the same theater, we managed to see the new Star Trek film one evening when Anika was having a sleepover at a friend's house (this is the first film we've seen in the theater other than kids films since she was born!). We both loved it. Excellent casting pretty much all around. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD so I can see it again.

And, for Wallace & Gromit fans: the new film "Wallace & Gromit: Loaf and Death" is out on DVD today. (and at the top of my Netflix Queue)

Ooh! Cheese!

I love Wallace and Gromit

Eh. It was alright. I was kinda bored. Maybe I should see it again. Sometimes I like a movie much better the second time. I may walk in and expect one thing and when it's something else, I'm not satisfied. Then, when I know what to expect, and it delivers, I like it better. Keep your mind out of the gutter!

I did find that Up was better than I expected, though. I would like to rent it and watch it again.

Hmm, to buy the DVD or not to buy the DVD

Kyras

I hardly ever buy a DVD. I have to really LOVE a movie to do it. If you bought Up, how often would you watch it?

I have a few movies I own and have watched multiple times. They include Pure Country, Pretty Woman, Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men. Come to think about it, I think they are all on VHS and my thingy won't play VHS.

^ I have a friend like that. Her husband is a stick-in-the-mud and won't go out to movies so she buys what seems popular when it comes out. I was at her house last Monday night and we watched "New In Town". It was my second time but I liked it again. Might have had something to do with meeting Jason and Melinda at S2KCA Days and they are both from Minnesota. Melinda is a sweetheart and funny.

^Oh, and I'll bet you get them for REALLY cheap!
