I like that the new Bond films are more realistic. You can keep your silly Bonds with absurd storylines and gadgets, and Bond girls with ridiculous names.

I do agree that John Wayne made a better Rooster Cogburn, but Jeff Bridges did a...

I'm definitely not a big fan of Aronosky. Visually, I liked The Fountain, but that's the best that I can say about it. I hated Requiem for a Dream... but I did like The Wrestler.

I'd rate this version of True Grit an 8/10.

Very solid and great acting. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Shaved off about .5 because I didn't care for the ending so much. I'm not going to spoil it for...

I know what you mean. I need to work up the fortitude to get through these kinds of movies too. I often put off watching them, even when I'm told that they're very good.

Re: The Lone Ranger, gets stranger

This seems like a really weird idea, but I'm willing to wait and see what happenes. I know that before Pirates of the Caribbean came out, I thought that was a really weird idea too.

This is just my opinion, but Blood Simple and NCFOM were fantastic and up there at the top of my list of best suspenseful films ever.

I love some of their dark comedies, but others are just meh....
