Fiona and Dave have you seen Shock Treatment? It's a sort of sequel to RHPS. Good music, not so good a movie. It came out on DVD last year or maybe the year before.

Yes I have, years ago. From what I remember it was pretty bad.. and all I really remember was there was a song about a toaster. I'll have to look for it on DVD, could be fun to see it again.
 
and all I really remember was there was a song about a toaster. .

I think that's the very first song in the movie, where Janet is singing to her kitchen appliances about how unhappy she is with Brad.
 
Yes, I think it was.

We are watching right now a really funny-bad movie called Grandma's Boy with Doris Roberts and Shirley Jones.
 
Last month, i watch the 3D movie "Avatar", fantastic. Everybody should watch it.:wub:

I strongly recommend 'Everybody's Fine' starring Robert DeNiro, Drew Barrymore, Kate Beckinsdale. Anyone with adult children, or anyone who has aging parents, will be moved by this film. What can I say? I was prepared to watch a light comedy. Turns out it's not for laughs although there are some clever, funny moments. It's a very subtle movie that snuck up on me and unleashed emotions I thought were long dormant. After the last scene, I was surprised to find myself sobbing. Great film.

I have been wanting to see that movie, but as I am caring for an elderly parent with dementia I'm not sure I can handle it. I watched The Notebook w/ James Garner & Gena Rowlands a few weeks ago and bawled my eyes out. I will see Everybody's Fine when I think I can handle it or need a good cry.

I should have said retired, not aging, parents. Sorry for the misconception I created. Everything's Fine is not about dementia -- more about children trying to live up to parent's expectations.
 
The Men Who Stare at Goats. Good, but I wish I'd waited for it to come out on cable, it's one that I could have waited to see.
 
Watched, Did You Here About The Morgan's.
Enjoyed it, it was funny. It had Sam Elliott in it and he doesn't even have to act. He can just stand there and speak and my heart melts. :wub: Don't tell my husband!

Heh! When Sam Elliot talks it's like honey on gravel and makes all of me melt...and DH knows all about it.
 
My DH had Zack and Miri make a Porno on the netflix queue and it came in the mail. It was hilarious but a bit raunchy. As we were watching it, he turned to me and asked who put this movie on our list. I quickly replied YOU! He sheepishly replied Oh.
 
SuperHero Movie. It was okay. It is by the same team that made the Airplane and Naked Gun movies.
 
Watched Precious last night. Had to wait for my son to go to bed due to language (F this and F that), but a very powerful film. Monique' was totally awesome as the mother. I totally hated her character, she did such a great job of acting.
 
Over the weekend, I watched:

Astroboy: I don't know why I rented this one. I didn't like the original series in the sixties, and didn't care for the spiffy CGI movie either. I really liked a lot of the sixties and seventies Japanese imports, Speed Racer, Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot, Ultraman, Kimba the White Lion, Gigantor, and probably others I can't remember off the top of my head. But Astroboy, I just never found Astroboy amusing.

Surrogates: Pretty much exactly what you would expect. Not bad. Nothing to write home about.

Patriot Games: One Jack Ryan movie is pretty much the same as the next.

Crimson Tide: One of my all time favorite submarine movies...and there are a lot of great submarine movies. Grey Lady Down, Das Boot, U-571, Operation Petticoat!

Welcome to Mooseport: I always enjoy this one. Ray Romano and Maura Tierny are are great together...and Gene Hackman, what more needs to be said?
