    Anyone ever see "Requim for a Dream"?

    Yep. Meant to give it an honorable mention but I forgot.

    A friend of mine who is obsessed with J Connolly loves the ass to ass part. I just love the movie cuz its crazy how fast your little score setup can go wrong when you are an addict.

    So glad someone else liked Pandorum it wasn't the greatest sci fi ever made but the first person cluelessness of the movie really drew me in.

    I also liked The Mist. Most of it was a little weird but the ending was great. That and The Strangers with Liv Tyler. Really creepy movie.

    BTW A Few Good Men was also a really good movie. Labyrinth is also good as a guilty pleasure movie. ET is up there too that I forgot.

    If you like sci-fi have you ever seen Dark City?

    I loved the Mist and even liked Dreamcatcher (even though the book was 1000x better).

    Excellent movie but probably one of the most disturbing I have ever seen. I swear once my daughter gets "the talk" and is mature enough I am going to make her watch it. Hopefully it will disturb her as much as it did me and will make her think twice about sticking needles into her body.

    When the dude falls down the elvator shaft, that was freaky...the music just adds to it

    I loved the Mist and even liked Dreamcatcher (even though the book was 1000x better).

    Didn't like Dark City...it wasn't well put together. Is there an accompanying book that would make it make more sense?

    Also, didn't like dreamcatcher. Phantoms was ok but again better book.

    I went out with some friends for my birthday and ended up getting trashed. So one of my friends tells me it time to go and I dropped that quote on him. The best part is i have no memory of that night, but i had seen Tombstone so much i could quote it when I'm hammered!
