    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I was enjoying this until I realized that it was German propaganda concerning their "revenging Jew" fantasy. The average Wehrmacht dogface had little to do with the final solution. It was designed to elicit sympathy for the German soldiers in portraying the glee with which they were offed by the...

    Baracuta Jacket Made in England

    Baracuta makes two versions of the G9. One MIE and the other made in Romania. Both use the same materials and the sizing is the same. I've bought the Romanian version for $95 plus shipping from StyleVaultformen (Ebay) and the construction, as I stated before is superb. I would have liked the...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Movies from the Past Week 1) New Star Trek - pays homage to the series in the right amount. special effects great. Good dialogue. Loved it when the younger Spock tells Kirk to get out of the captains chair. A very few purists to whom the original series is a canon that should not be violated...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Taken with Liam Neeson. Pleased to see that Luc Besson was a co-writer. Great action. A plus with this movie is the plot was easy to follow. The Lives of Others loved this especially the ending. Read an article in Wired magazine about how they pieced together a lot of the old STASI files...

    The Great Beer Thread

    I don't have what you would call a favorite beer as my tastes seem to differ depending on season, mood etc. My favorite always seems to be what I'm drinking now. Here's a short list in no particular order: Sam Adams (almost any variety except for the fruitier seasonal beers). I really like...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watched Changeling for our movie club on Friday night. Didn't seem like 2 hours. good movie. Nice period piece. Some details altered but pretty much true to the actual events. Other than the lips, which were made more prominent by her bright red lipstick, I forgot I was looking and Angelina...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Went to the theater to see "Miss Pettigrew lives for a day". Don't take it seriously as its somewhat of a farce. Just enjoy the good performances from Frances McDormand and Amy Adams. Nice period piece taking place around the immediate pre-WWII period. Somewhere between 1939 and 1940, I'd guess...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Just watched Kite Runner yesterday afternoon. Wonderful movie. Very true to book. Performances were excellent all around. The father was close to how I pictured him mentally from the book but my mental image was a little burlier.

    Hard to believe she was just 19. Also notice how Walter Brennan looks old even back then.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I've always thought Holiday Inn superior to White Christmas and it is always on my list of holiday movies every year. Astaire and Crosby...can't beat that....plus you get Astaire's dandy 4th of July dance.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Just watched ShopGirl based on the Steve Martin novella last night. Enjoyed it. If it hadn't been for watching this, then the last movie watched was Gosford Park with the English subtitles....almost a necessity for an Altman flick, especially since for Gosford you had to contend with the...

    Casino Royale

    Caught Casino Royale Friday night. When Daniel Craig was first announced as the new Bond I had plenty of doubts but they were erased in the first two action sequences. The chase through the construction site in Africa has to be one of the best if not best action sequence of any Bond film to...

    Grungy looking celebrities

    Its still dark out. Do you think he would be out that early getting the paper? I'd rather believe he was out somewhere all day and picked up the early edition on the way home. As for the car...not a clue.

    Demotivation Site

    The videos located under the "Spin" tab are great. "Face-to-face interaction of executives with their employee subordinates is an unfortunate necessity in most organizations. However distasteful, such exchanges do provide fertile opportunities for the seeding of Radical Demotivation‚Ñ¢ in...

    Grungy looking celebrities

    Aahhhh....but he is wearing a suit and tie. Looks like he is on the way home from a long night out. In that case I think we can give Mr. Gable a pass.
