Yeah right even if you wanted to see a French movie it wouldn't be released anywhere near your trailer. And if it would you would shoot it.

Anyway, 'They', one of the best horror-movies since, well a while. Some obvious love for Jacob's Ladder and Lovecraft.

Up. The first 15 mins or so were surprisingly sad for a Pixar film, but overall I really enjoyed it. I think it had a good message to it as well. A friend at work said it was better than Ratatouille, but I've got to disagree, Ratatouille is still my all time favorite Pixar film.

As a bit of a culinary enthusiast I enjoyed Ratatouille. Very cute.

That's part of the reason I love it so much. France, cooking, and rats are among my favorite things.

anybody got any good "new couple" movies? asking out a girl tomorrow, not sure what movies are out though.

**Centurion1** · 02-25-2010, 02:50

why the hell doesnt this have its own thread PI.

by the to answer your question take her to Dear John

Cent's Reasons to go to Dear John with a woman
1. It has channing tautm
2. It is by nicholas Sparks
3. It is about love, i think
4. It has channing tatum (who is an atrocious actor)

And as a bonus for you and me....... its all about like some marine deployed so for military areas like ours the girl you ask is probably military or used to be so another bonus.

oh and hurt locker was trash so unrealistic. Good action flick occasionally but seriously random eod humvee in middle of desert meets british special ops and then saved all their butts with their natural sniping abilites and some capri sun.

Edit: Avatar. Waste of my life. It was beautiful visually but let me just explain the story.

Military Evil
Business Evil

Science Good
Nature Good

At the end i expected some sort of collage showing all the atrocities white captialsits have had and a dedication to native guerillas.

The evil marines and their evil colonel. the oh so good scientist BS the scientist is the one who would want to cut em up and dissect them.

And there was not a single joke in the entire movie which i heartily disapprove of.

Depends on the girl. Ask her what she wants to see if you can't guess her taste in movies. Some girls aren't into "date movies" and might really want to go see a movie where things get blown up or shot.

Stuff that's out around me: Shutter Island, Dear John, Cop Out (looks dreadful, Tooth Fairy (kid movie?), Up in the Air (was awesome! Maybe not good date material?), From Paris with Love (Travolta), Valentine's Day, and I think the Princess and the Frog is still in a few places. Hrm. Not very many good things to choose from.
