    Much better then No Strings Attached, and not just because of Mila Kunis obviously. JT and Mila were good together, but Woody Harrelson and the dad from Step Brothers were great too.
    We've been watching the old Cheers shows on Netflix. Harrelson was so good when he came on the scene and was the unfortunate, but competent, replacement for Coach.

    Watched Captain America again since I thought the first time around that I watched it, they rushed the storyline, but I didn't come away seeing it as any different. Probably because I had read my brothers old Tales of Suspense comics over and over again and knew of Cap as fighting so many battles vs. the Skull, etc. Looking at it again, perhaps what they should have done was show a condensed visual timeline of Cap fighting tons of battles during WWII and then, if they wanted to make a retro movie, even involving Bucky, they could have. I think this is the weakest of the Marvel line-up, though Tommy Lee Jones was stellar.

      Just saw this as well, and thought this was actually pretty good. Pleasantly surprised.

        I was quite surprised with this movie, I didn't expect much but my wife and I really enjoyed it.

          Watched Bridesmaides (bought it for the wife for Christmas) last night. This was the 2nd time I've seen the movie and I think I laughed more this time than the first time I saw it. Melissa McCarthy is just fantastic.

                  Not a fan of chick flicks but liked The Vow. I'll watch pretty much anything Rachel McAdams is in. I dunno what it is, she's not the hottest chick out there but she's got the complete package for me with the way she talks and smiles. And yeah those eyes.

                  About the movie, I thought it had a great message about marriage and the vows you take no matter how hard things get you work it out. I was lucky to have parents who stuck it out even though they fought a lot but can't be without each other.

                  I read up on the couples real story and understood why they went more a cliche hollywood way of telling it but I would have liked it done a more like a darker indie film to tell the real story of what the real couple went through.

                    I watched Premium Rush on Blu-ray last night. Excellent movie. I thought everything about it was very well done. The picture on Blu-ray is superb. It is a very colorful film. Trees, buildings, taxi cabs, clothing. All very colorful and stands out well.

                    I definitely would watch it again. Want my wife to see it.

                    JGL has really grown up to be a damn good actor.

                      I completely agree with this. He has great range and can seem to do almost any role; action, dramatic, comedy. He always sells me on his character, and his characters all feel different. Big fan of his, and for me, it started with '10 Things I Hate About You' because I didn't watch 3'rd Rock.

                          The thing is, he was pretty good on 3rd Rock but you would never think he'd turn into the actor that he has become. The guy really progressed by leaps and bounds. I wonder if he spent a lot of time picking John Lithgow's brain.

                            Silver Linings Playbook

                            Outstanding movie. Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence had great chemistry and played their roles expertly. The supporting cast is strong, too. I would highly recommend this.

                              Another JGL staring role.

                              This film feels like Rian Johnson's Memento if Looper ends up being his Insomnia (for no reason but that it feels that way to me even if it makes no sense to compare his career to Nolan's).

                              As for the film: I mean, I just don't know what to say. It's weird but fascinating. At times feels all over the place but controlled as well. He really went all in on making his own noir film.

                              Enjoyed it. Not sure I loved it. Not sure how I feel about it except I want to read more about its creation and just dive into that world a bit.

                              And JGL is good as usual.

                                NWO. Not really a movie, but a documentary of the rise and fall of the NWO. I was 16-17 when the NWO took over wrestling so this was a trip down memory lane.

                                Only glaring omission is the Icon vs Icon match between Hollywood Hogan and The Rock.
