Moneyball.

Hollywood couldn't even get the A's a ring that year. If the film isn't going to mention Hudson Mulder Zito then why not just flub history a bit.

A.I. is it for me. Far too many different endings. I can understand maybe 2 endings but it's like Spielberg didn't know how to end the movie and threw every ending he had in mind and said "screw it, let the people decide which ending they like best".

Well after the 'first' ending with the blue fairy underwater and the slow camera pull-away, my eyes were wet and I was about ready to chuck something at the screen. However sad, though, that ending was logical.

But wait! There's more....aliens! And he 'dies' AGAIN!

Wanted to punch Spielberg.

Re: What movies have you seen recently?

Regarding "scary" movies... the only ones that legitimately scare me are movies like The Strangers that are very realistic. Not so much the movie itself, but imagining that situation happening to me.

I won't spoil the movie for anyone that hasn't seen it, but I could absolutely see a scenario like that occurring and that's what freaks me out about it.

What's your favorite version of A Christmas Carol? For me it has to the 84 version starring George C. Scott.

The one with Mickey Mouse. I love that one.
