Last time I was in front of the TV was to watch the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix a couple weeks ago. I'll be watching some today, tomorrow and Sunday (US Grand Prix coverage on Speed). Then I probably won't be watching anything until the Nov 23-25 for the coverage of the Grand Prix of Brasil.
I'm not much into TV anymore, as you can see. It bores me, for the most part. Not at all into movies and certainly not star struck as I really can't name hardly any of the 'stars'.

Underworld: Awakening. I was disappointed with the story but it was nice seeing Kate Beckinsale as Selene again.

I've just watched 'The Raid' if you like ultra violent martial art/action films I would highly recommend it. The fight choreography used a martial art I haven't heard of before called Silat which had a distinctive look to it. There was plenty of gun and machete action too.
The story begins when a police swat team raid a fortress tower block to take out a drug lord. Things soon go wrong and a frantic fight for survival ensures.

Killer Joe. Great performance by Matthew McConaughey. Quite a violent film,with nudity (Juno Temple is sooooo cute)  After watching you may never look at a piece of KFC in the same light again

If you watch Jaws backwards, it's a heart warming story about a shark that spits out so many people that they have to open a beach.

Just saw Saints and Soldiers: Airborne Creed last night. It was pretty good for a lower budget WWII film, if you like the original Saints and Soldiers, you'll like this one  The Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OTCLap8juo

That's my boy with Adam Sandler. It was funny, but really raunchy. I can see why it bombed at the theatres.

Watched the Marx Brothers in A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races.
So much better than the so-called "comedy" today.

Let The Bullets Fly - Madcap Chinese Spaghetti style western, set during the warring 1920s. I really enjoyed it, the acting was great and the plot was complex and full of twists. In this film you have to really pay attention to the subtitles as the pace of the dialogue is very quick. I also liked the intermixing of cultures in the film.

Just last night, I watched, "A Christmas Story". A classic, among classics.
America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.

Wheels! Yer killin' me! You've GOT to sit down long enough to watch the whole movie, start to finish, many times.

Ghost,thanks for the movie recommendation. Your enthusiasm got my interest.
I have never seen this film (not sure how) but it was wonderful!

Wow, talk about being topical! A film that came out 2 years after the war started between Japan and the US!
