Question for the forum. Do we have general purpose threads for movies and/or TV shows?

I am so, so much more excited about Machete than I am for The Expendables.

Other than Inception, Machete is probably the only other movie I'll go to see in the theaters this season, unless that Scott Pilgrim movie gets word-on-the-street reviews that make it look as fun as the trailers made it out to be (and I hate Michael Cera and say that).

I enjoyed Predators. It was good, mindless fun. Plus the Machete trailer before it was great. Seeing Adrian Brody with his shirt off made me really want to get my hands on some HGH. That skinny turd looked like a cage fighter.

Yup...not far from ole Springburg. My wife has been bugging me to go to our Indy film theatre and watch it.

It's at 8%. You almost have to try to [expletive] up a movie to get an 8% on the tomatometer. For chrissakes, "The Hottie and the Nottie" is at 5%.

"Confessions of a Porn Addict" is one of the funniest indie comedies I've seen in a long, long time.

Took my own advice I gave Go Birds and pulled out my copy of LA Confidential. Probably my favorite crime movie. Argh. It's just so damn awesome.

I watched Jaws last night with my 9 y/o. That was after she gave On the Waterfront a valiant effort.


Robert Shaw's monologue about the USS Indianapolis is the best part of the movie.
