what's the last movie you saw in the theater?

[fizzgig]

mine was harry potter and the order of phoenix

yeah, i don't get to the movies that often...trying to get me to sit still and shut up for that long is a real challenge :D

[Aristus]

1. "The Dark Knight."

Intense...

[fizzgig]

6. i wanted to see it in the theater

but money has been so tight and i never got around to getting my dad to treat me...i'm such a spoiled brat :P

[Danger Mouse]

2. yeah, seriously.

:eyes:

...
Dark Knight, btw. And it kicked ass. Not just one ass. Many, many asses.

[fizzgig]

8. oh stick...oh! shiny!

:P

[Danger Mouse]

14. dude, dark knight was LONG...you would've been finding a ball of yarn to play with

half way through.

[fizzgig]

22. a friend of mine told me i could walk out 45 minutes early or so

and not miss anything relevant

[Danger Mouse]

34. not true. the end of the movie is amazing. it's actually a part in the middle that really drags.

like, there's a good 20-ish minutes of the movie that probably could've been left out.
but it's an awesome movie nonetheless.

[fizzgig]

58. movies have just gotten too long for me

and i get so bored so easily

[amitten]

3. An American Carol.

I am, of course, full of shit.

[fizzgig]

11. i thought that smell was the mexican food i had for dinner

good to know it's not

[Forkboy]

4. 28 Days Later.

I hate cinemas.

[fizzgig]

12. i keep looking at that at the video store

is it worth renting?

[Forkboy]

I enjoyed the first hour, but felt the last act kind of lost it.

If you enjoy zombie flicks this is an interesting take on them, and not bad, just not great. It did have a few cool moments. I haven't watched the sequel yet though.

[fizzgig]

27. *facepalm* i thought you were talking about the sequel

holy awesome reading comprehension, batman

[ghostsofgiants]

56. I happen to be a huge fan of 28 Days and 28 Weeks Later.

I liked 28 Days Later better though. By a small margin.

[XemaSab]

5. Cloverfield

:P

[fizzgig]

13. i don't know that i could handle it, just based on the previews

but i won't go into my issues here :P

[Fire Walk With Me]

7. WALL•E

Haven't seen more than a few films this year- quite the drop off...however, WALL•E fully makes up for that. :thumbsup:

[fizzgig]

16. i've heard good things about it

i'll have to put it on my list of movies to rent

[bridgit]

26. Yay, WALL•E!!

:bounce:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

9. A restored print of Godfather II.

A week before that, a restored print of The Godfather.

The only time I go to the theater is for special events like that -- the last time I was in a theater previously was for Fahrenheit 9/11 in 2004.

[fizzgig]

17. i have never seen any of the godfather movies

*hangs head in shame*

[Starbucks Anarchist]

31. You go to hell!

:mad:

And while you're there, watch Part I and II, but skip III. Trust me. ;)

[fizzgig]

36. i thought all they played in hell was the star wars prequels

:P

[Iggo]

63. Yes. Trust. (n/t)

[madinmaryland]

10. Jumanji. Yea 1995.

I can't have a beer when I go to teh movies, or pause it for beer/bathroom breaks.

:shrug:

[fizzgig]

18. there's an indie theater in town that serves beer

but, unfortunately, no pausing for pee breaks

[madinmaryland]

32. I don't know where confusion, usa is.

:stoned:

[RevolutionaryActs]

15. The Dark Knight.

Before that it was Harry Potter. I love movies, but I hate the other move goers. x(

[fizzgig]

19. i can't wait for half blood prince

i will be there on opening night :D

ot, but did i ever share this cover of barbie girl with you? i don't know if you've seen it, but it cracks my shit up every time i listen to it. thank gods my boyfriend is tolerant with my taste in music...but hey, the song is one of his guilty pleasures, too :P

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhE3Nfry_yY

i can't breathe! :rofl:

[RevolutionaryActs]

28. OMFG!

:rofl:


The truly weird thing is, for some reason today (after years and years in my cd rack), I listened to my Aqua cd. :rofl: x 5

[fizzgig]

38. my boyfriend's old boss threw a party some time back and put on aqua

we laughed heartily that he owned it, but somehow he blamed me that it wound up in the cd player :rofl:

[RevolutionaryActs]

41. Well of course...

you used your mental powers to make him buy it 10 years ago..... :P

[fizzgig]

52. i think it's cuz i was the only girl at the party

holy shit, that night turned out to be a wild night...it was a blast

[pokerfan]

20. Casino Royale (2006)

I hate theaters. They refuse to stop the projector if I need to use the facilities or the visit the concession area.

[fizzgig]

23. inconsiderate bastards, they are

i have never seen a bond film...does that make me a freak?

[pokerfan]

45. What kind of American are you?

We luvs our MI6 agents. :)

[fizzgig]

54. a crappy one

;)

[DarkTirade]

21. X-Files

There was a long streak where I didn't see anything... I think the last movie I saw in Florida before I moved was Superman Returns. My brother fell asleep halfway through. :P Then I didn't see anything for a while until I finally got around to seeing Dark Knight, WallE and X-Files. I wanted to catch Clone Wars and Hellboy, just to fill my geek quota. But I didn't manage to catch 'em.

[fizzgig]

25. i missed the xfiles movie

and i have no idea why or how

oh yeah....NERD! :P

[DarkTirade]

33. Well duh. That's why I shelled out several bucks for the X-Files movie.

Why would I have done that if I WASN'T a nerd? :P

[fizzgig]

37. that's what we call a rhetorical question

:P

[DarkTirade]

47. Hey, you used a multi-syllabic word!

You're a nerd too!

One of us! One of us! :P

[fizzgig]

51. gooble gobble

you troglodyte :P

[DarkTirade]

61. Hey, I am not an early crustacean!

:P

[bridgit]

24. Mirrors

http://www.mirrorsmovie.com/main.html

[fizzgig]

35. that site just exploded my browser

but i'll take a look next time i hit the video store

[bridgit]

78. yeah, we had comps, ended trippy/some good scenes but def a DVD flick...

wouldn't spend money on it :(:)

[LeftyMom]

29. My mom and I went to the new X Files movie.

Before that I took LK to go see Kung Fu Panda, which was much less annoying than I had thought it would be.

[fizzgig]

40. i marvel at how my dad survived some of the movies he took me to see

like rainbow bright and the star stealer

[LeftyMom]

44. I think we had that on Beta.

I was a pretty easy kid in that respect, I never dragged either of my parents to kid movies or Disney on Ice or anything like that. I never had a boy band phase either.

Come to think of it, my parents owe me pretty big on that one.

[fizzgig]

48. i never did disney on ice or boy bands, either

but i'm sure i drug them to at least a few crummy movies, although i know my dad enjoyed willow

[Lucian]

30. The X-Files: I Want to Believe

[fizzgig]

42. i still can't believe i missed that

welcome to du :hi:

[femmocrat]

105. Same here!

When was it out? I wonder if it even played here! I'll buy the DVD when it comes out.

:shrug:

[Common Sense Party]

39. Iron Man.

Wanted to see Dark Knight, but never got around to it.

[fizzgig]

49. haven't seen it

but i've heard it's worth watching

[Common Sense Party]

66. I really enjoyed it. I can't believe the DVD is already out.

[Initech]

43. Eagle Eye

Wasn't bad... kind of reminded me of "Enemy Of The State Part II". Minus Will Smith, of course.

[fizzgig]

50. i don't know that i've even heard of it

but i don't really pay much attention to movies that are coming out

[TommyO]

77. That was mine as well

Loud, explosive, mindless. Just what I was looking for at the time.

[ScreamingMeemie]

46. The Simpsons with MrG.

I don't think I can go back to the movies.

[britpopper]

53. IGOR

Had to see it with my girls and it was actually pretty good...John Cusack, Steve Buscemi and Sean Hayes...frickin' funny...

[fizzgig]

55. i don't think i've even heard of it

but if it's got john cusak and steve buscemi, i'm sold

[britpopper]

57. It was under advertised by far...

...and it is a cartoon...well, not actually, more of a Pixar type animated film, but pretty funny and very political too...Eddie Izzard does a voice too...check me out, I'm talking about a kids movie..

[fizzgig]

59. i am beyond sold now

i have such a hard on for eddie izzard

[britpopper]

60. Well...who can blame you...

...and hey it was Igor or some dumb chihuahua movie so I rest my case...hahahaha

[Iggo]

62. Tropic Thunder.

I saw Pineapple Express the weekend before that.

If Religulous is as funny as people say, that'll be 3 good ones in a row. We'll see...tomorrow.

[Jamastiene]

64. X-Men. Had to drive 35 miles to see it too.

I wish we still had a movie theater here. They shut the Cinema down after it played Showgirls. The town council said it was banned here. The Cinema played it anyhow. The town council shut them down.

I shit you not. We have no movie theater here in Rockingham and haven't had one for over 10 years now. We have a tiny little theater for plays, but it ain't all that. Recently, though, they have decided to play movies on weekends instead of act out the plays. They play really old movies though...if a movie has been on regular television as a rerun at least 50 times already, they'll play it in the theater. :eyes:

[last_texas_dem]

65. Pineapple Express

There have been a couple that have come out since then that I wouldn't have minded seeing, but nothing I really cared a whole lot about. I go to the movies substantially less than I did three or four years ago, and rent even less often...

[ashling]

67. Nights in Rodanthe

my wife and I saw it this afternoon ... we both cried.

[SeattleGirl]

68. "The Dark Knight" at one of the local IMAX theaters.

It was fantastic!

[Awsi Dooger]

69. 21

A few months ago, about a team of young professional card counters.

Pretty good, but like every film with a gambling connection they botched the emphasis in many areas, overstating some things that any gambler would know, while glossing over topics that would have required sustained attention to detail by everyone involved.

Also like every casino movie, the eye in the sky was ridiculously glamorized. I know many undercover security here and they laugh at the way the cameras are portrayed. The casinos want to intimidate cheats and undesirables by pretending the camera catches everything. It's hardly reality.

[FloridaJudy]

70. Hellboy II

The seven buck twilight show is worth it to see anything by Guillermo del Toro on the big screen.

[MrSlayer]

71. I think it was "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End."

I rarely go to the movies. I am going to go and see "Religulous", at least I intend to.

[peacefreak]

72. The Women

But, but, but I spent the whole movie watching Meg Ryan to figure out how much surgery she had to look like Meg Ryan again. Shallow, huh? The original was better (both Meg Ryan & the movie).

[billyskank]

73. Indiana Jones and the whatever it was

:hi:

[bikebloke]

74. Elizabeth

I think that was the last. It's coming up on nine years since I set foot in a theater. Talking and beepers going off spoiled the films for me. It's been videos (then DVD's) at home since.

[Ivan Sputnik]

75. Shanghai Express

Starring Marlene Dietrich. We have a local theater that shows classic films.

[jonnyblitz]

76. "what we do is secret"(biopic of early LA punk band the GERMS)

on labor day weekend. I struggled to think of the last movie I saw before the one i just mentioned and can't think of it, that's how infrequently I go to the movies these days.

[Paladin]

79. Just Last Weekend: "Appaloosa"

Really really good Western; highly recommended.

That's the first flick at a theater my wife and I have been to in a awfully long time. It has to be something special for us to put up with the hassle.......

[Lydia Leftcoast]

80. A French movie: "Tell No One"

A mystery made in France but based on a book by American author Harlan Coben.

[Paladin]

81. I Heard That Was Good

Did you like it?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

83. Yes, it was one of those films that pulls the rug out from under you

each time you think you know what's going on.

I also liked "Roman de Gare," another plot-twisting French film from earlier this year. I'd rate it above "Tell No One," in fact.

[Paladin]

88. Thanks For The Touts. Will Check Them Out. (n/t)

[Lethe]

82. Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay

that was the last one. I was really high. Movie wasn't that good except for Danneel Harris, who was incredibly hot. (especially as the stoner punk girl, and she really does smoke weed in real life!)

edit: i just watched Order of the Phoenix on dvd. I didn't like it. The HP movies are getting worse as they go, IMO. I liked Luna though, she was cool heh.

[Tektonik]

84. The Dark Knight

I've seen it twice, second time being in IMAX

[applegrove]

85. Religulous. It was great.

[DS1]

86. The Dark Knight. Twice.

and about a dozen times at home :D

[AlCzervik]

87. Eagle Eye.

it was okay, lots of action but it has a little too much cheese.

[johnnie]

89. Kundun

1997

[medicswife]

90. It's been so long, I can't even remember. I know it was a kids' movie though. nt

[grammysandie]

91. Fahrenheit 911

Hubs and I don't get out much. We'd rather kick back on the couch and dial up PPV.

The only other movie we've seen in a theater in the fifteen years we've been together was "Passion of the Christ," and that was only because his family bought the tickets and we all went together.

HATED it.

[CBHagman]

92. "Ghost Town."

[Blue_In_AK]

93. Taxi to the Dark Side, I think.

[YankeyMCC]

94. City of Ember

Just got back from seeing it.

Pretty good.

[JTG of the PRB]

95. Burn After Reading

That was a few weeks ago though. I've been slipping in my movie-going. I need to get back on the horse!

[laylah]

96. Calendar Girls...

talk about money being tight! Plus, my ADHD doesn't allow me to sit for long, as your Dad can attest to. Well, actually, so could you :P

[Mad_Dem_X]

97. The Dark Knight.

[AwakeAtLast]

98. Journey to the Center of the Earth - in 3D!

We liked it - it probably isn't for everyone. The 3D aspect made it a little more exciting.

[Neshanic]

99. Dances With Wolves. No not a revival.

[Chovexani]

100. Religulous

So good I'm seeing it again tomorrow with friends who couldn't make it the first time. :)

[leeroysphitz]

101. Birth Of A Nation. n/t

[Left Is Write]

102. Arctic Tale.

[BlueIris]

103. "Vantage Point." An hysterical B-movie. nt

[femmocrat]

104. "Horton Hears a Who"

It was a school field trip. I don't go to many movies either, but "W" looks like fun.

[ferrferr]

106. Doom ... it's been awhile. 1600 miles from family with 2 young kids, enough said. :p

[Angleae]

107. Revenge of the Sith

I don't go to movies either.

[Broken_Hero]

108. The Dark Knight, nt
