I watch it just for Timothy olyphant!

I watched Catch and Release just for Timothy Olyphant and wasn't disappointed. It's been on Showtime recently. Cute and light.


Oddly, I haven't seen that one yet, even though I love him AND Jennifer Garner.


I'm going to disagree with PP. I am not a fan. I saw them filming it in Boulder (didn't see Jen but did see Tim!) so was interested in seeing it for that.

Have you watched Oblivion with Tom Cruise?

For some reason I don't think I heard of it until I caught some of it on TV recently. It was kind of interesting.

Another one that I don't think I heard of before until watching on TV is Now You See Me. But I think that movie must have been popular since they're doing a sequel for it. Maybe I'm just not keeping up to date on what movies are out there now. I'm also finding that I like movies that Mark Ruffalo is in.



Then add You Can Count On Me to your list, if you haven't seen it. Mark Ruffalo, Laura Linney, Matthew Broderick. Very well done but only made $8 million.

Wow that movie looks like it has great reviews and won some awards. Never heard of it before. Josh Lucas is in there too. Thanks for the tip!

Keeping the Faith. I think it did okay at the box office but everyone seems to have forgotten about it.

Generally, foreign films (non-English language films) - which I'm sure are very popular in other parts of the world, but don't seem to be very widely watched in the US. For example, Departures (Japan), The Sea Inside (Spain), any of the Dardenne Brothers films (Belgium), Pedro Almodovar's films (Spain) and Inarritu's earlier works (Mexican director of The Revenant and Birdman, but had a few earlier Spanish-language films that were wonderful - Amores Perros & Biutiful). I agree with others that watching with subtitles if you are not a speaker of the language of the film is a pain sometimes, but there are so many really beautiful and interesting films made outside of the US.

Pp here. You wouldn't believe how often I think of the movie Defending Your Life, particular the scenes where Albert Brooks passes up the opportunity to invest in his friends small tech company that turns out to be huge, and the scene where Meryl Streep can eat anything she wants and does, because she's in pergatory and can't gain weight. That last one has always been a fantasy of mine!

Also who can resist a young James Spader sexing it up with Susan Sarandon.
