Haven't seen any of the Jack Ryan movies.

Here's my list so far.

Clear and Present Danger
Patriot Games
42
Cowboys and Aliens
Paranoia
Random Hearts
Morning Glory
Six Days Seven Nights

Obviously I've seen Star Wars, Indy, Blade Runner, Sabrina, Air Force One.

No desire to see the ones where Ford plays the computer guy (Firewall) or the cop. Those look shitty.

Firewall wasn't bad.

I'm the opposite. I can't stand Harrison Ford fo some reason.
I think he is to acting what Steven Segal is to running.

Didn't care for Six Days Seven Nights.

The Fugitive was very good.

Hollywood Homicide wasn't terrible.

Blasphemy!

Have you seen Witness? That one is really good.

I didn't mind The Fugitive.

whateve one where he was the president on Air Force one.... yuck

The movie is older than me.

Sure, but it's a classic.

My son is 15. He watched it 2 years ago.

Yeah I've seen Fugitive and Witness. Good stuff.

Dude seriously. Watch Regarding Henry. He's got range that often goes unused since he's kind of typecast.

I'll give it a shot.

Best thing is that the character he plays is a completely different person at the start of the movie. He's a complete dick who turns into a nice guy.

as you mentioned, part of my not liking him is he seems a bit type-cast. so, maybe something out of the norm will change my mind

That the movie where he got shot buying cigs? If it is I havent seen that in 20 years.

NPR - This American Life, had a segment on Molly Ringwald watching TBC with her own daughter, Kind of poignant.

ROFL ROFL - I know, just like whatever that one was called about all the Star Wars.

The Fugitive is one of my all-time favs. "He had a mechanical arm."

That 'The Fault is in our Stars' movie might be the best movie in the history of movies, and I would not watch it due to all the click bait it has littered social media with this week.

Holy ****ing Christ.

Luv me sum Harrison Ford finger in every movie.

I read the book. If teen cancer romance is your cup of tea, go for it.

I actually really like John Green, but I wasn't crazy about this book. The whole concept seemed so... obvious... or something. It does have his usual witty, interesting characters, though.

rachel mcadams screen test for the notebook is pretty damn amazing

It's one of my life's goals to get into an argument with a girl and give her "The Ford Finger."

Also, I watched Random Hearts with him and Kristin Scott Thomas the other night. Weak movie but he is so good in it. A lot of nuance in his performance.

He even made Working Girl watchable.

Holy crap Maleficent was excellent. Must watch.

Finally saw Thor: The Dark World

Meh. Pretty sure Thor needs to be confined to Avengers films. Loki actually a lot more interesting as a potential lead.

The Spy Kids girl?

This is for you....

It's gotta be Samuel L Jackson.

The ****? Really?

I first saw it when I was about 9 or 10. My older sister and I watched The Breakfast Club so much growing up we wore out the vhs tape. Movie holds up tremendously and still totally relevant.

Maybe Lucas can remaster that too, and add in iphones and texting alerts, etc.

It's not received very good reviews. Enter with caution.

I couldn't get into the first Thor at all. Or Captain America. Or The Avengers. Iron Man is pretty much the only Marvel movies I've really enjoyed. My comic book excitement pretty much lies with Batman only.

That's why I asked. Like 50% on RT....

Seemed like an odd target demographic they're reaching for with this film. Dark and slightly scary for the normal little Disney tikes.

My understanding the biggest complaint is they completely ****ed up the story. Made the evil queen just misunderstood. Disney-fied one of the original Disney villains.

I wasn't even going to go see it but my friend invited me and I had nothing else to do so I did. I was surprised it was good.

your words are hurtful.

They didn't mess it up. Just a different take.

Tell that to the fans of her story. I've got a friend who's a huge fan of the character, and he was furious about the movie.

Well there will be angered fans but there will be new fans to make up for it. If you are like him you may not like it, but it is well done. Well told, well paced, and looks amazing.

Watched "I, Frankenstein" last night. Holy **** was the acting atrocious but it was a decent rent for $1.

I've never seen There's Something About Mary.

Tonight that ends.

Cap and Iron Man can carry movies. Especially Cap since he's such a fish out of water/time. I just feel like there isn't much to Thor besides swinging his big hammer. He's best as a foil to Loki.

I will say that visually, the Thor movies are ****ing spectacular. They're fun to look at.

Critical response says otherwise. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a dog in this fight, I simply urged caution since it's received "mixed reviews" at best. I was telling what I've heard about it. And before anyone says "but it's got 75 percent from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes," keep in mind that actually good movies generally get good reviews from critics and audiences alike. Audiences that go to Maleficent are predisposed to liking it.

Watched "End of Watch" the other night. I really enjoyed it, though I'm not sure what I thought about the weird narrative convention of having a lot of it shot through handheld cameras by actors. It didn't really make any sense the way they did it. Still the story was pretty decent and characters compelling.

Star Trek: Into Darkness was a lot of fun as well.

I've seen quite a few positive reviews from my friends on Facebook (most of whom are parents of children), but most people aren't going to get on FB and talk about how they just paid to see a movie and it sucked.

Oh. And I think I fell in love with Anna Kendrick a little bit when her and Gyllenhall's characters were dueting on "Hey Ma" while driving in the car. Freaking sneaky cute.

Yeah, I don't know. I kind of got my hopes up for Snow White and the Huntsman. They sold it as giant epic battles and it wasn't. But all in all, it is unfortunate that Kristen Stewart's no-acting ass killed really good performances from Hemsworth and Theron. Point is, this looks like a knock off of that, and I was disappointed by Snow White.

I care not about the story, but if it's good I'd rent it. It's just hard for me to get wound up after Snow White. It's a tough niche. I was kind of "meh" after seeing Hansel and Gretel, but that's probably the best of this new type of movie (Stewart was THAT bad in Snow White).

Interestingly, I read an article awhile back that this may be Jolie's last hurrah as a headliner. She's really losing her appeal and may not be able to carry a movie anymore. IIRC, the last thing she did well in was Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and the last thing she headlined at all was either Salt or Wanted, I can't remember, but either one did well. The article postulated that she may be washed up.

I think Anna Kendrick might be the hottest woman in the world right now...

Don't get me started. I was on the fence in regards to JJ Abrams as a filmmaker before this movie. Now I'm almost falling off the fence, and a bad Episode VII will incite me to rage.

I enjoyed that one too.

yeah; her personality just adds to the hotness. Supposedly she's super funny and nice in real life.

In other news, Sig Weaver returning for Avatar 2.

Her Twitter is hilarious.

I LOVE her. and yes her twitter is great. Maybe one of the funnier women out there.

You're going to love it.

By the way, mock me all you want, but check out Pitch Perfect. I was joking about it and mentioned it to my brother and he said he was also a big fan of the movie.

I only recently found out that she started singing and doing Broadway from a really young age.

I was very impressed with Pitch Perfect. Very good flick.

Sequel just started shooting.

Yes but she looks great now.

She carried that movie like it was one of her adopted children.

Escape from Tomorrow is on Netflix.

Its the renegade Disney flick filmed guerilla style at Disney World.

Weird ass flick, but I enjoyed it. Kinda creepy in parts.

You sir, are not alone.

I've only seen a few minutes of it. My wife likes it so I assumed it was a massive chick flick.

It's good in a similar vein as Easy A. Total high school semi chick flick that seems to go beyond those boundaries. It's worth checking out, for sure. My wife and I caught it on HBO and immediately bought the DVD.

I have no idea how anyone can see Jolie as washed up.

She's only 39 fer crissakes. That's 29 in Hollywood.

Cool. Thanks.

It happens. People go from solid gold to nothing.

Edge of Tomorrow was really good. Not fantastic, but good, solid science fiction. I liked Oblivion better but it's all good.

Tonight I'm going to watch The Expendables I think. Never seen it.

Got suckered in to watching this with the GF. Its was quite amusing. The fat girl is hilarious.

Oblivion was better? ****. And I was looking forward to seeing Edge.

:spock:

Edge feels like a mix of previous films. It's good, but original concepts hold my interest better.

Really well made hard sci-fi though.

I actually turned off The Bag Man the second I saw Cusack's sunglasses in the opening scene. WTF.

I'm watching the first x-men right now. I can't believe how bad the effects are. The first battle with Sabretooth is almost comical in the way he jumps through the air and such. They've come a loooong way with superhero CGI in the last decade.

I think the same time every time I see that one. That one is just laughably bad; it has not aged well at all.

I can't tell what is more incredible though: how bad the effects were or how small Jackman was compared to now..

Just got done watching Jack Reacher. Been on a Tom Cruise kick after watching the Edge of Tomorrow. Cruise is always solid.

I want to see Edge of Tomorrow. How was it?

I really enjoyed it. There were a several moments that made me laugh actually. Was kind of surprised that there were that many comedic moments in a science fiction, but I thought it worked. Emily Blunt is real easy on the eyes too.
