Last movie you watched?

[Estefania]

I noticed this thread over at TFL forums and I thought maybe people would be interested in seeing it around here =) I'm a bit of a movie-addict so I'm watching and re-watching stuff all the time. I even keep a record of the films I watch for the first time during the year~ This is my list for 2009 so far ❤ It's the second year I do it, the first one was for 2008 =D

So just comment here with the last movie(s) you watched and maybe comment on it a bit if you want? Or perhaps rec it/warn other people about it?

Last new (for me) movie I watched was Bolt. Took me a while, heh. I was actually pretty good, but then again ever since Lasseter is also working his magic on Disney movies they've been getting better again. I adored Meet the Robinsons and he also helped with that one.

Also, I'm basically rewatching Tom Hanks' career for the nth time. It happens when I see some new film of his at the cinema (even if Angels & Demons wasn't awful enough to be good, unlike The Da Vinci Code). Yeah I'm a big fan — I swear some day this will be considered cool! Anyway, yesterday I watched Charlie Wilson's War, which is awesome and greatly underrated, IMO. Amy Adams is also terribly cute in it~ ugh OTP

The last two movies I saw in theaters were Dragonball:Evolution and Star Trek~ Before that? Sweeney Todd XD (I don't go to movies often).  DB:E is a movie everyone should see, because it's so epically bad it's awesome XD; Goku-dude can't act to save his life, but he's adorable so I forgive him =/  And everyone needs to see and love on Grandpa Gohahn.

And ST, well... XD; Let's just say there were plenty of "I DON'T WANT TO SHIP IT but this is so adorable how can I not D:" moments.  I really thing my reaction to it ("ARGH ADORABLE") wasn't the reaction most people were expecting. >>

The most recent movie I watched was Stephen King's IT (about 12 times), because I tend to put movies on for background noise when I don't feel like listening to music, and the movie I watch only changes about once a month. x3

I just saw The Taking of Peham 1 2 3 on Friday with a friend from work (first time I've seen a movie at a theater in forever).  It was SO good.

I'm hoping to see The Proposal with her on the 24th.

I really wanted to see the new Fast and Furious movie and Fighting, but neither is playing anymore.  Now I'm anxiously awaiting their dvd releases.

Fast and Furious is due end of next month, so you don't have to wait too much longer.

As for me, I went and finally saw Up! and The Hangover, because I'm just a sucker for Ed Helms and Jeffrey Tambor. :/

Angels & Demons, in which Tom Hanks totally sucked -again- *sigh* but at least this one was way better than the Da Vinci Code :/ (I also love the A&D novel more than the other one lol;)

And, last Thursday I gave Night At The Museum: Battle Of The Smithsonian a try, it was funny

I should go to watch Terminator today *whistles*

I know!  That's still a long wait though. :/

Drag me to hell. (pardon the language) A bit cheezy at times, but i thought it was fantastic. One of the best horror movies i have ever seen. The ending was awesome. If you like horror movies, check this one out.

And i watched Independence day on tv today. Love that movie.

I'm glad to hear good things about Star Trek, i'll have to see that soon.

I want to see this one! The last movies I saw on the theater were Land of the Lost and Up  

I've been watching movies most of the weekend since I have to catch up on some work :/ Transformers, Hellboy II, Aladdin (I hadn't watched it in years and I still knew all the lines XD) to name a few :hug: Right now I'm rewatching The Dark Knight.

The last movie I saw in a theater was Star Trek and the last movie I watched on TV was Juno this morning. I have to say, I am not a fan of the latter.... I really, really don't like Ellen Page.

Just came back from Terminator - Salvation and ZOMFG Christian Bale 8D !!

To his credit, he's obviously not even trying and he's still better than 95% of the cast. Ian McKellen was alright in Da Vinci and Ewan McGregor did ok after greatly sucking in his last three movies or so, but the rest are complete crap. Who cares though, I mean, these movies are a joke. Just like the books.

Frankly, while I agree A&D was a better movie, I enjoyed Da Vinci much more. This new one is just a really mediocre film, but Da Vinci was so ridiculously awful in every sense, it's endlessly amusing for me haha. Also, I found A&D had the most boring plot tweest in ever =/

Haha, thank you for not liking Juno xD In my case it's got nothing to do with Ellen Page (although I did find the title character really annoying), but god, such an overrated movie. A pity too, because Jason Reitman also directed Thank You for Smoking and I love that one to death.

Anyway, saw The Heartbreak Kid today which was, er, watchable (I'm not a Farrelly person).  Though I watched it for Michelle Monaghan anyway, I have a huge girlcrush on her ❤ Eagle Eye wasn't worth it, though. It killed a bit of my soul forever D= And then saw Punchline again, which is so so so so awesome and too ahead of its time for anyone to notice =P

Not many films I want to see at the cinema right now. I can't watch the new Terminator because I can't stomach Bale and Up (godIwanttoseethis) won't be out until August in Spain (and October in the UK!). I would like to go watch Land of the Lost and The Hangover, perhaps.

You're right, Thank You for Smoking is a great movie. I forced my husband to watch it on DVD and he didn't think he would like it - but he totally did.

I started watching The Pursuit of Happyness tonight but had to leave off in the middle. I've seen it before though, and I have to say it is probably the most underrated of all Will Smith's movies.

I was so excited Han was in it.  I'm sure I'd be loving it regardless though.  I'm a sucker for all the F&F movies except the sucky second one. :yes:

This movie is awesome and I never get tired of rewatching it  :/ it is lovely and very human, which is lacking more and more nowadays  


Gol II, wtf plot? It kinda made sense in the first one, but, the second one totally missed the point. lol; maybe it was because I was so distracted poking Gmail and I missed the important parts =/
