Again, another film I've not bothered watching all of... Saw. Had Miles and Ben from Lost in it though!! Not my sort of film. Yawn fest.

Oh yeah, Ben is really creepy in that Although I didn't like the film much, just mess rather than any complex plot. Didn't see Miles when I watched it though (I'm starting to type Myles automatically now! Obsessed...)

Yeah I go to write Myles! He was in it before Ben was.

Hehe! I've not seen enchanted...I've never seen the Lion King either though, or Bambi, I missed out on a lot of Disney during my childhood! Got to have kids myself to justify watching them all now at my age!
I saw The Happening recently, it's a kind of spooky, speculative fiction thing, people just start randomly killing themselves in huge numbers, not too bad - well, the acting was bad and the directing, but bad enough to be funny, and the actual premise of it is good. Also saw Righteous Kill, Al Pacino and Robert deNiro & John Leguizamo (I know that's spelled wrong!), not bad, twist at the end which I saw coming but was decent all the same. What else...oh yeah, watched Hancock, with Will Smith, that's pretty funny.

I watched The Mist yesterday. It's (as you'd probably guess ) about a mist that has things in it that kill people. It sweeps over this cosy New England town and traps people inside a supermarket, where they all go a bit mental, get attacked by monsters and eventually try and escape in their car to try and find somewhere that hasn't been affected by the mist.
I won't spoil the ending in case anyone wants to watch it, but it was really bleak! Made me drop my jaw a bit at how non-traditional it was. Worth a watch if you can suspend reality for a while, not recommended if monsters and stuff leave you cold.

I'm not usually into horrors but twist endings do get me....might give it a go!
I watched Wanted and 10000Bc over the weekend, Wanted isn't bad, it's got James MCEvoy and Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman in it, it's a fast paced action film with a bit of a plot and a few twists, nothing too taxing on the brain but thought it was a good laugh, there are some great scenes it it like when Jolie's character Fox handbrakes a car going at speed and hits Wesley at such a perfect angle that he slides into the passenger seat and this scene where a train derails on a massive bridge...funny and silly with some good special effects.
10000 BC is this tribal warfare in the days of sabre-toothed tigers thing, it wasn't bad, again it certainly wasn't too taxing on the brain and there were dinosaur type creatures at one stage so I was yelling at the screen about the millions of years of innacuracy in that. The love story side of it was a bit dull but I tend to feel like that about most films, the best bits were the action scenes.

^^I still haven't seen that.
Watched a silly stoner film yesterday, Smiley Face with Anna Faris. Kind of like "Dude, where's my car".

Yeah I quite like it as well, this wasn't quite as good but it was a laugh.

Weird! I know what you mean though, there's various songs and things I associate with places or people.

Yeah, I think that's the only film that makes me think of something else though.

I've a few that remind me of growing up at various stages so i'd associate them with particular houses we lived in....

Don't think I have not really, not in the way that Dude where's my car reminds me of Canada. There's films that I can remember where I was when I first saw them, but I wouldn't think of it as soon as I watched it. If that makes sense!

Yeah, I know what you mean, I think the reason a few do that for me is we never had a video till my parents split up so once we got it there was the novelty factor of watching films over and over, and then my younger bro & sis had their films that they loved and watched over and over as well...say "The Neverending Story", that video was worn out with how many times the three of us watched it and when it's on TV I always think of the house we lived in that year. We knew it so well we could repeat the dialogue word for word!

I've never seen that film! I used to watch The Return of Jafar over and over! It's the second Aladdin film, think I only watched the first one once!
