We had a laugh-fest in the Junkie Home Theater last night. We watched:

Robin Hood - Men in Tights - am so happy that this is on DVD at last. One of my favorite Mel Brooks films.

Young Frankenstein - at last we now have a true Anamorphic Widescreen release of this great Mel Brooks comedy.

Blazing Saddles - this movie never fails to make my laugh. One of the best of the Mel Brooks movies.

:roll:

My friends and I just watched a movie called Beloved, based on a book of the same name by Toni Morrison. The book was trippy...the movie was trippier.

If anyone else has seen/read the movie/book, you know what I'm saying...
:pan: Love It.

Went to the theater and saw Snakes on a Plane for the eighth time, but this time I took an Airline Pilot with me to answer some of the questions I had about the movie. This movie is so much fun, I think that anyone who doesn't see this in a theater is missing an experience like no other. It is truly the most fun you will have for 90 minutes in your whole life.

At home watched a very good movie called Brick. Very well written, and a very disturbing plot and outcome. Well directed, and very intense. Good movie.

Alice in Wonderland- 9.0/10 :) Everytime I see this movie, I find it more enjoyable, I appreciate it more and it goes up 1 position on my favourite Disney Classics list. A true Masterpiece!

Saw two movies today.

Just came from a friend's house where I saw "The Ringer." Hilarious movie, and Katherine Heigl is GORGEOUS in it! It's about a guy who pretends to be mentally handicapped so he can enter the special olympics (so he can bet on it to win money for his friend's surgery).

Also watched "Mulan" today. been watching it and all its extras so I can review it on Amazon.com. One of my hobbies is writing reviews and lists there, though I badly need to update all that stuff. Some of it is from when I was a college freshman and is pretty weak, ha. Haven't written the Mulan review YET (any day now), but I definitely LOVE the film. I can't imagine why some folks say the Lion King was the last great Disney animated feature (even if there were a few that were a few clunkers). Mulan is an absolutely wonderful film! It's true what people have said though, the voice cast is noticably absent from the extras, which is a real bummer. And, I wish they'd include the Disney Channel "making of" specials on these DVDs. They're all so "after the fact" now. You don't get to see much of the actual folks working on the film, just interviews and galleries, and that sort of thing.[/url]

Date Movie (Unrated Version) - Pretty funny ... it had its fair share of dumb moments and it certainly isn't on the same level as the Scary Movie[/b]s, but I found myself laughing a lot throughout. I'm a sucker for a parody.

<b>The Prince and the Pauper</b> - the Mickey version. Haven't seen it in 16 years but I remembered bits and pieces of it.

<b>Dogma</b> - Hilarious; never gets old. Best enjoyed if you're a disgruntled Catholic.

<b>Flight 93</b> - <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0481522/" target="_blank">This version</a>. Depressing, to say the least, but their courage is very admirable.

<b>The Big Lebowski</b> - oh, the joys of watching a favorite for the millionth time!

I do that, too. But I write reviews on amazon.de, the German amazon, though I have an account at amazon.com. :D

I'm surprised that I have liked all the Lohan movies I've seen, though I haven't seen them all. Of course, my fave is Herbie: Fully Loaded, ha.

For me, while this is probably better than lots of non-Disney animated films, it is the worst of Disney's theatrical animated features. Well, actually, I would have to see it again. It might not be as bad as Chicken Little. Plus, I haven't seen Home on the Range, The Wild, Valiant, or Pooh's Heffalump Movie (but I like Pooh). Ha, contrary to the studio's plans, I went to the theaters more often for their 2D movies than their CG ones (except PIXAR's, which rock).

My friends and I will laugh at anything and I love parodies, but this barely made us grin about 2 times.
