What was the last movie you saw at the theaters?

That's agreed, The Third Man. Slumdog Millionaire, while it was a well-done film, was definitely not worth all the accolades that it walked away with, and certainly not the Academy Award for Best Picture of the Year, imho.

So what do you two believe deserved the accolades instead?

The last movie I saw in theaters was "Watchmen". It was OK. Nothing too special but I had fun watching it.

As for the whole Slumdog Millionaire debate - I have very mixed feelings when people say it's overrated. On the one hand I agree because in my opinion it was the 2nd best movie this year (behind Let the Right One In) and it's certainly not so far and away better than other movies in my top 10 that it's unquestionably #2. The Wrestler, for instance, could be argued is a better film and I wouldn't really have much of a problem with that.

However, I think Slumdog is still an amazing movie that should be seen and appreciated by everyone. If it's not the #1 movie of the year I think it's very hard to argue that it's not one of the top 5 movies of the year.

Last movie I saw was "Watchmen". Thought it was awesome, although I made the horrible mistake of reading the comics that the movie was based on, before I went to see the movie, - so that took some of the thrill away. Awsome movie though.

I live in Connecticut and don't get to the theater often, but I had to see this one. I liked the movie, but the documentary it's based on is far superior in nearly every aspect.

I Love You, Man - lots of points/stuff

Last film I caught in theaters was I Love You, Man. Loved it. I love Segel, and I believe Paul Rudd is the best funny man in the business right now.

Saw Love the Beast last Friday. A friend had free tickets. I really enjoyed it actually. Its a really interesting snap shot at something in a persons life.

I saw The Class the other afternoon. It was enjoyable, and I liked it OK, but it was a bit overrated and not worth all the rave reviews that it received.
