My Thoughts:

This one I enjoyed quite a bit. Not as much as I did the last one (Goblet of Fire)... but it is right up there with the rest of the series. I did find this one to be a little slower. But it was still enough to keep my interest through-out the entire film.  Definitely worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

I just got this one in a DVD/Blu-ray combo this past month. Which is one of the reasons I started to watch the series this weekend. As I was looking forward to watching one on Blu-ray and knew I had to watch these in order. I can't say this one is a favorite compared to the rest of the series... but it is enjoyable. It is worth the time you put in to watch it. I would say if you are a fan of the earlier films you will want to see this one too. I can't comment on how it compares to the book as I never read any of the books.

Unfortunately this is the last Harry Potter film I have in my collection. I still need to get the final two parts to complete my collection. Hopefully I will be able to do that before too long.

My Thoughts:
Well, what to say about this one? Its not the first time i've seen a "gangster" movie between 50 Cent and De Niro. The movie was ok enough i guess. Another movie about dirty cops. And it reminded me a bit of the parts from De Niro and 50 Cent, (when they was playing against each other in Rightous Kill) But i guess i expected more from Robert De Niro in this one. Didnt know what to expect from 50 Cent. It had its moments here and there. But it could have done so much more, atleast when you see the cast. I guess all in all, an ok action\gangster movie. Not a movie i would pay full buck for.

My Thoughts:

I decided to watch this one with Brittany today. This is the first time she ever seen it.... and the first time I seen it since I was a teen. So I probably haven't seen it in a good 30 years! It is very strange... even after all those years there was a lot of stuff I remembered. After all those years I was telling Britt ohh.. watch this part it's funny. I remembered so much while watching you would have thought I watched it less then a month ago. But to be fair I did watch it countless times when I was a teen. Sure this movie goes with the obvious jokes... and some of those jokes are rather dated... but all the same this film is a lot of fun to watch! Brittany said it was a fun movie... but nothing there really got her laughing all that much. I am afraid I may have hyped it up for her a little too much. Plus this movie was made in 1980, so she didn't get all the references and such. But she said it was fun all the same. I, myself had a blast watching this one again after all these years. Definitely recommended.

Title: All About Steve
IMDb |Wikipedia |Trailer |
Year: 2009

My Thoughts:

I wanted to watch this one because I am such a big fan of Sandra Bullock. But going into it I knew to expect an awful movie. I read some of the reviews... I know about Sandra's Razzie Award (And the great way she accepted it!)... so I knew not to go in expecting anything more then mediocre. After watching it for myself I can say I definitely seen better... but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. It kept my interest enough to watch through-out to the end. And I can even say I enjoyed it... somewhat. But I do tend to expect more from a Sandra Bullock movie. There is also a familiar face in this one... Katy Mixon. I know her as Molly's stoner sister on Mike & Molly. This is not one I see myself watching all that often... but I can see myself watching it at some point again. There is worse ways to waste an hour and a half.

Again a wrestling blu\dvd i've watched inbetween stuff, and when i got some time. Watched a match here and a match there. This is actually a good look behind the winners of the tournament. And its interesting to see where some of them was before and after winning. Some great matches. And with a interesting story. This is again highly recommanded for the wrestling fans out there.

Now you can relive the heartwarming television event that marked the end of one of the longest-running and most beloved shows of all time.

Even as the final ceasefire draws near, life at the 4077 is as hectic and crazy as ever.

My Thoughts:

While this is really a series finale... it is also a TV Movie. As it runs for 2 hours on DVD. I would guess with the commercials it ran probably 3 hours when it first aired. This is, in my opinion, one of the best series finales made. An great end to an excellent series. Watching this finale movie makes me almost want to watch the entire series again. So much fun watching it again. You got to love it when a series is ended in the right way... and what better way then a  nice long movie to say goodbye.

I enjoyed this one quite a bit. It has an interesting story... and was fun to see the time travel/alternate universe storyline. I especially liked how they changed up the Batman... didn't care much for how they did Superman though. I also wasn't too thrilled with how some of the characters were drawn. But over-all a good film. Well worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

This is one I never even heard of before getting the disc. Not sure how I missed it coming out. But then again I don't watch live TV like I used to... ever since getting the DVR years ago I just record all I watch and fast forward through all the commercials. After watching this one I must say I am a little let down. Not really a bad movie... but there really nothing special about it. I found I didn't really care about the characters. Just not enough development I guess. And the storyline itself failed to really pull me in. But I did enjoy some of the haunting scenes. I would say basically an average film. If you check this one out don't expect much. At the same time don't worry about missing this one.

I dont remember if i've seen this one before. I remembered some of the movie, but not alot. But enough about that. On to the movie. I've just watched this with some good friends of mine. And the movie was real cool actually. Cool story, some cool toys. Real cool special efects. Alot of stuff happening trough out the movie aswell. The picture and sound was also amazing. All in all this was a good action\Sci-Fi movie that i recommand you guys to check out, if you havent allready. Hopefully i will get some time tomorrow maby to check out the second one. Will be interesting to see how they do things. And how 'The Rock' will fit in, in all of this.

My Thoughts:
Well, this was a great follow up. The story was a great continuation from the first one. With some new interesting characters. And i just have to say something (being a wrestling fan) 'The Rock' has become a great actor. I liked him in this movie. Again, the story was great. A bit different, but great. A lot of cool special efects again. Real good moments between the cast trough out. Again great picture and sound. And Bruce Willis? I was a bit dissapointed in his part. But for the movie as a sequal and a action\Sci-Fi movie. It delivered IMHO! And it had a interesting ending. Makes me wonder if there will be a third. Or if this is the last one. If you watched\enjoyed the first G.I Joe movie this is a must have\watch! And they have some allright extras aswell.

Jane knows she is gay but her mom is completely unwilling to accept this fact. Their mother-daughter relationship is broken unless they can find a way to remember how much they love each other.

My Thoughts:

This is a TV Movie that originally aired on Lifetime. This is part of a 3 TV movie set I just got yesterday. And was the one I wanted to see the most in the set. As I like both Stockard Channing and Ellen Muth. This is the first thing I see Ellen Muth in other the her series Dead Like Me. The first thing I noticed is the narration from Ellen Muth. It instantly made me think of her series... as the series is done the same way. I felt that they did a wonderful job with this film. It felt realistic and I must say it broke my heart seeing how much trouble the mother had accepting the idea her daughter is a lesbian. To me a parent should be nothing but accepting and behind their child no matter what... as long as they are healthy and happy. Sure it means they are going to have a tougher time in life. I am not blind... I can see that. But it is a parent's job to help their child through the tough times in their lives...not add to them. Anyway, I enjoyed every moment of this movie. Despite it being pure drama (not a favorite genre). Well worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

While watching this one there was a few chuckles... but for the most part there is nothing special here. Matter of fact I had a hard time keeping my attention on it. Found my mind wandering to other things while watching. This one does seem to be geared more towards a younger crowd though.
