I'd highly recommend City Island.

I'm watching The Hottie and The Nottie.

So I had to pause halfway thru to go drink. And it's not over yet.

If you get last the first part before the nottie gets hottie, it's not horrible for the an 'ugly chick turned hot' movie. One of the best transformations on the ugly chick I've ever seen. Paris can't act, it's a cliche poorly written/cheesy movie; but for the crap it gets - not the worst ever either.

I saw Skyline today. I pretty much expected it to be a typical alien movie. But no..

The ending didn't fit the movie at all. It should have ended when Elaine and Jarrod were together right before they were abducted by aliens instead of showing the pictures of all the cities without any people living in them and going inside the Mothership's body.

Due Date was good, not Hangover good, but good. The real star of that movie is Zach Gandalfkidicarus' Lilith Fair shirt.

Where's omaha? - I finally watched a couple of the old french foreign films. Both very good.

Neither would have made it to US screens in that era without censorship. The censored stuff wasn't as over-the-top gratuitous as films are today (todays' stuff I am de-sensitized to) -and a lot of the violence and sex is still implied/offscreen, but Rififi in one scene was like "hey look at this dame in a see-thru top!". Anyways, some of those old foreign dames were smokin -Magali Noel Oo La Laa!

Reading the subtitles wasn't too bad either, I typically use the subtitles for English films.

Any more old foreign film classic suggestions are welcome.

In Wages of Fear - two of the main characters are Mario and Luigi -it seems coincidental with Donkey Kong.

[ghostrunner]

That and Antichrist are both on streaming. I'm slightly curious if I can watch one after the other without killing myself afterwards.

Watched "The Killer Inside Me" not long ago. Had a fairly big cast & wasn't really sure why I hadn't heard much about it. It wasn't a bad movie by any means but could have been one of the most disturbing movies as far as brutality towards women. It was a pretty odd movie that left you with a WTF just happened feeling.
