what movie(s) have you watched lately?

[Grasshopper]

I just finally got around to watching the first Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr. version) movie this weekend. I really enjoyed it, mostly due to RDJ's great combination of humor and action. Something about that guy amuses me greatly (love the Iron Man movies). I'm now anxious to see the sequel (which got some rather mixed reviews on this board, IIRC).

We watched Jerichow (DVD) the other night. A German film with echoes of "The Postman Always Rings Twice". Very dark, but pretty good. On tap for a loong night, we will finally get around to Das Boot. Three hours of submarine clausdrophobia. Damn, where is Squak when I need spelling help.

The Guard
Irish and it takes a few minutes to tune in to the dialog, but if you are someone who likes, say, Justified on TV this is a great film.

Have you seen "The lives of others"? A great German film.

From the sublime to the ridiculous. 21 Jump Street is the worst/funniest movie since Bad Santa. The plot and script are atrocious, but Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum ad-lib many of the scenes and they are hysterical.

Marlow, do you think Blazzing Saddles could be made today, it is chock full of the"N" word.

Probably not, because no matter how satirical it got, some people would choose to be offended.

I agree, even though the people using the "N" word are protrayed as absolute morons. The movie is making fun of these ignorant clowns and that is what is funny. A KKK idiot would be wondering what the joke was!
