that's what i'm waiting to find out. i have a bunch of business trips coming up that may interfere with this. it would be sort of cool to have a line in a (probably shitty) movie with tom hanks.

i'd be pretty thrilled to see my name roll up in the credits at the end of a film.

I hate Tom Hanks, but it does sound cool. Hope you can do it...

hopefully i can swing this with work.

the movie is about that captain that was captured by pirates and was rescued when the pirates were shot by the navy while being towed in a raft. i'm sure most of you remember.

Wow, yesterday i watched a documentary from 2008 called "Roboter essen kein Sauerkraut" (Robots don't eat Sauerkraut),
this is a documentary about the beginnings of german rockmusic and includes contributions from bands like Amon Düül II, Embryo, Popol Vuh, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Birth Control,
Ton Steine Scherben, Guru Guru, Can, Kraftwerk, Eloy, Jane, Grobschnitt, Kraan,
Witthueser & Westrupp, Scorpions, Lucifer's Friend, Frumpy, Udo Lindenberg....

Very interesting especially for me as it includes my fave bands from that time: Grobschnitt, Can, Birth Control, Eloy, Kraftwerk.

It's availalbe only in german language but it's worth watching just for the music.

Here's a link to watch it online:

i watched "the descendants" tonight. i'm a big fan of hawaii so i wanted to see it. it was a different movie than i thought it would be. i expected a little more humor. it was pretty depressing. still worth seeing.

Isn't George Clooney nominated for an Oscar?

I recently saw Margin Call which was pretty good.

Also Albert Nobbs with Glen Close. :thumb:

Saw this movie last week
Image
It's from 2 years ago, but I didn't get to see it in theaters, directed by Diego Luna (the other guy who appears in Y tu Mamá También). The kid who plays Abel was so great, looking forward to more movies with him, if he sticks with acting.

I just watched The Artist. I don't get all the hype :noclue: It was just okay to me. If you take out the dog, I wasn't entertained at all.

I think the Descendants was much better (and Midnight in Paris)

I saw The Ides of March. It is an absorbing (albeit discouraging) behind the scenes look at a Democratic Presidential campaign. I did pick up on a liberal bias (oh - that damn liberal media :lol: ), which is why I think they focus on a Democratic candidate; it would have been overkill with a Republican candidate. Overall, I thought it was a good movie.

I watched Moneyball last night. I thought it was excellent. Howewever, I am a baseball fan which I'm sure helped me appreciate the movie more than I would have otherwise.

I just watched this on Friday night. I'm not a baseball fan either and I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Great cast and performances and learning about how these guys really changed the game was cool.

I finally got around to watching "Tree Of Life" this weekend. Probably one of the more beautifully filmed movies I've seen in a long time. Really challenging to sit straight through but there were whole segments I'll be watching endless times in the future.

One of the best movies of 2011.
