It’s on TMN … it didn’t interest me so I haven’t watched it.

I liked the Brother’s Bloom, so did the person I saw it with in the theatre. I’m not going to defend it, it wasn’t THAT good, and it was long enough ago I don’t remember a lot of specifics except I enjoyed the characters. You didn’t even crack a small grin at Rinko Kikuchi’s character blowing stuff up?

If you want a bad movie with wasted actors I nominate Legion.

For a good movie how about this Oscar nominated short: Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty: http://www.grannyogrimm.com/#/the-film

I am really looking forward to seeing “Becoming Jane” thanks for reminding me about that movie!

And, I totally agree with you about Titanic, Colette!

Really good – Becoming Jane, with Anne Hathaway and James McElroy…wow just a great period film with the likes of Maggie Smith and Julie Walters in supporting roles.

Really bad – Titanic. Now I know I’ll foster some disagreement here. But it was a B-movie with great effects!

That movie was so horrid – if you all had liked it & had not let me complain straight through it, I wouldn’t have survived.

The bad: got around to seeing “the Secrets of My Success” with Michael J. Fox, yeah, it’s an oldie but I had never gotten around to seeing it in 1988. Wow, cheezy, not cheezy good but cheezy bad….eckkkk…

The good: Soylent Green with Charlton Heston, from his post-apocalyptic movie period. About a cop in the future where we have depleted most of our natural resources..so $150 for a jar of strawberry jam and no showers. Soylent green are food rations of crackers made from a sea plankton, and no-one can get enough of them. I liked this film, it was a bit different and I like movies from the 70s and Charlton Heston But I’ll never look at a green cracker the same way again.
