<p>I saw Requiem for a Dream earlier today. I really enjoyed it, but I hated the ending. Then I went to see How to Train Your Dragon with my little sister and fell in love with Toothless. All in all a good day.</p>
<p>Anyone else see any good movies?</p>
<p>I saw All the President’s Men yesterday. Excellent movie.
Also saw the African Queen a few days ago. Bogie was awesome as usual. Didn’t care too much for the story though.
As you can see, I like new movies [noparse];)[/noparse]</p>
<p>I have never heard of any of those movies. Do you live in the United States by any chance?</p>
<p>No, why? But you probably haven’t heard of them because they are both ancient(1976 and 1951)</p>
<p>hahaha because by ‘new’ I thought you meant newly released? and I was asking because I have never heard of them. :)</p>
<p>I haven’t been to my local movie theater in almost one year.</p>
<p>I do recommend The Phantom of the Opera if you have not seen it though.</p>
<p>^ I doubt I could sit through that. I’ll give it a try though.</p>
<p>^^Is it creepy that I remember you loving that movie despite you devaluing movies (in that convo we had, don’t need to start again!!!)?</p>
<p>Anyways, I just saw Schindler’s List for the first time. Pretty incredible. Amazing cinematography. Great acting. Poignant, moving.</p>
<p>Also, I am watching This Is Spinal Tap in my Film Studies class, which is HILARIOUS!! First time as well. I have many (allegedly) great movies on my to-see list!</p>
<p>Have you seen An Education?</p>
<p>No, I’ve mentioned it in a multitude of threads. That was an intriguing conversation though.</p>
<p>I haven’t seen it, but I heard that The Pianist is appeasing as well.</p>
<p>I love An Education!</p>
<p>Me too! I didn’t expect the ending. I think that’s why I liked it so much. And I will definitely be adding Schlinder’s List to my list. Please disregard the pun.</p>
<p>I saw The Pianist too, but it was a while ago. I enjoyed it though. The main character’s nose was kind of distracting.</p>
<p>I saw White Chicks. Pretty good movie.</p>
<p>^ hahhaa it’s old but a classic. it’s kind of my guilty pleasure given the lack of depth within the dialogue.</p>
