Heathers is great! I was so in love with Winona Ryder when I was a kid. I think Slater disappeared about the time he was high as fuck on MNF talking about how they were sitting in God's seat. I can't find a video of it, if anyone else can, please post it. I remember :mj07: .
good movies

I love that movie. Everyone in it is spot on, and it introduced me to my favorite actress. I have loved Natalie since that first second she showed up onscreen in The Professional. Before anyone accuses me of being a pedophile, I am only a couple years older than her. Oldman is fucking classic in that flick. I think it's his best role.
theres a movie on cable right now...it`s called "a lonely place to die"....it stars melissa george and some less notable u.k. actors....
the first half has a sort of "deliverance' feel to it taking place with a mountain climbing group in the scottish highlands.....they stumble upon a kidnapped little girl( being held by kidnappers in a sort of burial chamber)...she happens to be the daughter of a balkan (i think) master criminal....a really bad dude(as you find out toward the end)...the kidnappers are chasing the climbers(who are trying to save the little girl) and the romanian criminal`s henchmen are chasing the kidnappers....
.then it shifts over to more of a "tightrope(eastwood)" sort of scenario in which the climbers(or what`s left of them) try and escape the kidnappers(and they are brutal s.o.b`s) during some sort of eerie/odd scottish festival....excellent atmosphere...
it `s brutal..has great cinematography...and the acting is actually pretty good....pay attention because the dialogue is also pretty clever....
a really good,edge of your seat thriller....i was really surprised and thoroughly enjoyed it........ great escapist entertainment...not for the sqeamish...

I keep passing over killer Joe. Last night I went with another 1.00 Tarantino ppv......4 Rooms
I watched this about 10 years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. The 3rd story was my fav. This time I fell into a beer-induced slumber 15 minutes in. Will give it another go this weekend.
True romance rocks. Saw it once when it was relatively new. I recall complaining to my roommate for bringing home a chick flick....lol

True Romance is my favorite movie. Glad to hear others like it a lot too.
I just saw a good movie that I'll probably get ripped for liking: Take This Waltz. Definitely not for a lot of people, but the movie has a good take on relationships.

I recall that Baton rouge head shops were selling a ton of honey bear bongs like Pitt used in true romance. I bought one myself. Talk about inefficient.....
I watched the movie Hermano yesterday. I didn't know much about it before watching it other than it was about two soccer-playing brothers trying to make it out of a poor neighborhood in Caracas, Venezuela.
I ended up really enjoying it. It has a ton of heart and will take you on an emotional roller coaster. If you like sports movies, you will enjoy it. If you like movies with a criminal element, you will enjoy it. If you can't stand soccer or don't like foreign films, then don't bother, of course. I give it a B+.

What are you all watching tonight?

Was thinking about going out with some friends tonight, but frankly my wife and I agreed it's probably not the best night to be out with all of the drunks on the roads and the crowds in the bars. We got a nice bottle of champagne we're going to toast 2013 to.
Just downloaded a few titles in here:
Kill the Irishman
The Contender (someone said Gary Oldman and I saw this one years ago and don't remember anything about it except I thought it was good)
Hermanos (brothers)
Which one you think boys? What are you guys watching tonight? I sure as hell am not going to watch that silly Ryan Seacrest tonight..

I like Hermano, but it definitely an emotional roller coaster. I don't know if I would ring the new year in with it. I haven't seen the other two so I can't comment about them. If you are in the mood for getting your emotions tumbled around though, definitely go with Hermano.
Man on wire...... Netflix. Documentary on man who walked a tightrope 1000' off the ground in manhattan. I found it interesting. Definitely worthwhile IMO
I liked it a lot. Saw it quite awhile ago, but I remember thinking it was really good.
I've seen Kill the Irishman twice now, true story about the Cleveland mob in the 70's, good movie.
