me too. they are just so entertaining and thats the main reason I love movies. I know its gonna be a big dumb action movie and thats right up my alley. From what I have read online looks like this one is going to be the longest of the three, and Stallone said he wanted to top The Raid Redemption, which I have not seen but have heard its one of the best action movies made in recent years.

Mr Banks was pretty good. However I thought the first hour or so was terrible, it was so weird. Both the wife and I thought the same thing as we were sitting in the theatre, both of us thought it was going down hill fast and then all of sudden it was good. I can't explain it lol.

Anybody see Wolf of Wall street? I have heard so many different things on it, some say its the worst movie they have ever seen, some say its fantastic. But everyone said that Leo was pretty awesome in it.

Going to catch Lone Survivor this weekend

I read the book first before seeing the movie. The movie takes waaay to many liberties from Marcus Luttrel's book IMO. That cheesy Hollywood last minute rescue was too much.

Lone Survivor was incredible. The tribute at the end of the movie had a lot of people in my theater in tears. I really want to get a copy of the book now and read it.

I finally saw Lone Survivor. It was really good--and once again some of the Hollywood critics have no idea what they are talking about.

I have that loaded in my Netflix Bluray queue.
As soon as it is released I'll get to check it out.

Finally watched The Desolation of Smaug last night. Great movie and leaves you on the edge for the next one! If you're a Tolkien fan, watch it.

Yeah I watched that to. It was good but I really think they could have made this movie in 2 vs 3.

I forget who the actor is that is the voice of Smaug, but its perfect.

Yeah, this is typical Peter Jackson. Still a good flick.

Benedict Cumberbatch. He also played Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness. He's quite awesome.
