I think I might go see La Vie en Rose this weekend.

I just checked, and according to imdb reviews, the Pink Panther films we skipped ("Return of" and "strikes again") were the two funniest of the series. Sigh. Maybe in a few years we'll actually be brave (bored?) enough to give them a try.

Yeah, I would recommend those two out of the series. You really have to already be a fan of the series to be able to find any enjoyment of "revenge". It's probably the weakest of all, other than "Trail of the Pink Panther" which was assembled from old footage after Peter Sellers had died.

I just saw "The Queen" and really thought Helen Mirren did a phenomenal job. I was afraid that the film might not live up to my expectations, after all that I had heard about it but I thought it was really well done.

We just watched a cute movie. It's a film from Spain called Reinas.

3 gay male couples are getting married as part of a mass wedding following Spain's legalizing of same-sex marriages. The boys face many challenges leading up to their happy day, but none as disastrous as their mothers....

Watched 12 Monkeys on Universal HD tonight - It's kind of weird that that movie showed up in the rotation after all our discussion here.

Finally watched Bull Durham for the first time ever last night. Mostly enjoyed it but the fact that I've never found Susan Sarandon attractive (I don't know why, it's something around her eyes but I can't pinpoint why she turns me off) made it hard to suspend disbelief enough to go along with everybody in the movie finding her attractive.

I'm sure I mentioned this in this thread before, but I love love love Bullets Over Broadway.
It's one of the most quotable movies ever.
Not to mention, it's my favorite Woody Allen. I admit it.

And I agree!

Rose and I watched Dangerous Liasions last night - It looks even more immaculate than I remember, beautiful HD movie

Just watched Reefer Madness this week. Very funny and campy. Kristen Bell is totally adorable as Mary Lane, and hubba hubba Christian Campbell. I recommend viewing the original 1930s film (at least in part) to understand the film they are mocking.

Don't smoke pot or you will become a sex crazed murderer people! The government said so.

Also finally watched The Queen. Beautiful acting by Helen Mirren.

L4ayer Cake just arrived today.
