I just saw Buster Keaton's movie "The General" this weekend. It's a silent movie, but I swear to you, it's still funny and entertaining. I was shocked at how well it aged. It's still a good movie today.

Got to see that on the big screen with live organ score when they reopened KC's downtown cinema house.

Years ago I saw a double feature of Nosferatu and Metropolis with a live orchestra at the Englewood in Independence. Maybe the No. 1 movie experience of my life. Also saw Psycho and Raiders of the Lost Ark at that theater.

Somebody should probably make a thread about Chick Flicks (love stories, relationship movies, blah blah blah, whatever) that are worth watching. I would put Eternal Sunshine on there. More if I gave it some thought.

The word hate doesn't begin to capture my feelings for that movie. It's a story about a three day weekend, as I recall, and it felt like the movie lasted at least ten. I remember watching and watching and watching and watching and watching and watching....and then the FIRST DAY ended, and I was like "OH MY GOD, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I have never seen It's a Wonderful Life.
And speaking of Christmas movies, I also haven't seen Miracle on 34th St.

As far as serial killer movies go, Henry, Portrait of a Serial Killer was probably the creepiest one to me.

I tried to watch a Star Wars movie with my wife for the fist time in my life a weekend ago, when Spike TV was running some sort of marathon.
It was the one with Jaba and Forest of Endor shit. I made it about 45 minutes before I fell asleep. I could understand the nostalgia if you grew up watching the stuff, but it was just cheesy as shit to me and didn't hold my attention. |
