  Yeah the last 8 years or so haven't been great for him in my eyes. Pirates series, Public Enemies, and Once Upon a Time in Mexico are about the only flicks he has made since that have entertained me. He was once one of my favorite actors but I have moved him down the list. I'm a huge DiCaprio guy.

  Looked at the instants for the first time in a week or so and noticed the 1st 4 seasons of mad men are now available. Heard/read some great stuff about it, ill pry start watching today.

  I watched Oldboy because I heard it was "the best movie that you've never seen" [and because the selections for streaming on Netflix really aren't that good, unless you're looking for TV shows], and I must say it was pretty dumb. i would NOT suggest wasting your time and watching this movie. It was a Korean film, so to begin with, you have to have pretty low expectations. The voice overs were quite hilarious, actually. The whole plot was just strange. I only kept watching the film to find out why the guy was imprisoned for 15 yrs. I wish I hadn't. It was a pretty dumb reason.
  
  Just thought I would try to spare everyone else the wasted hour and 30 minutes.

  Started watching Twin Peaks. Pretty interesting, I give it reps.
• Writerbuckeye

  

  Twin Peaks is one of those shows you watch and discuss -- and discuss, and discuss -- and still aren't sure what you actually saw.
  
  Good stuff.

  Thx, I guess I will find some torrents

  Just watched "Into the Wild". Dude graduates from Emory with high marks, gives away his money and hikes around in Alaska. Not something I'd recommend.

  Just started watching Rescue Me. Very good show. Definitely recommend it to all who havent seen it yet.

  I will have to disagree. I did not like the premise. I understand it is a bio, I do not applaud his major choice.

  Watched three solid movies while we were cooped inside during the hurricane:
  
  *Waltz with Bashir - amazingly done, animated (but almost Sin City like, not quite though) about the 1982 Lebanon War
  *Before the Devil Knows You are Dead - sick cast (Philip Seymour Hoffman, Ethan Hawke, and a multiple-topless Marisa Tomei haha)
  *Insidious - Very fun and creepy "horror" movie, check it out

  Anyone ever watch Conviction with Hilary Swank?

  Watched it on HBO the other day. It wasn't that good, kind of boring.
• bigdaddy2003

  

  Anyone ever watch 127 Hours?

  I did --- pretty good for a rent --- not quite as amazing as all of the buzz that surrounded it IMO, but worth a watch for sure. Franco did an awesome job.
• justincredible

  

  Breaking Bad is now streaming on netflix. Awesome show.
• OneBuckeye

  

  Watched Machete over the weekend. Not a bad flick worth a rent.
• bigdaddy2003

  

  Machete could have been real entertaining if not for the political message that it was pushing.

  What was the political message? No, I don't care to look it up.
