I am in the process of watching the HBO series, Band of Brothers. I have watched it before but it is so good that I had to watch it again. I am on disc 2 episode 3 "Carentan".

No problem Ringo, glad I could useful.... FINALLY!
Would you recommend Night at the Museum as a keeper SXV?
Yes, I would classify it as a keeper. It is a pretty good movie.....Nothing mind boggling but a good one compared to most of the stuff lately. -
Just got done watching "Night at the Museum" with my kids. Fun family movie....and alittle history lesson to boot(Not a deep lesson though).

Not sure what could be "on the viewing agenda" tonight, possibly Cool Hand Luke; again? For some reason, I feel like watching Prison movies. If I don't watch CHL, then definately it will be Colditz w/ Sir John Mills, Eric Portman, Theodor Bikel and Anton Differing.
Kind of a prison movie but a WW2 movie as well. Watch "Stalag 17", I love that one!!! -
New DVD of "Spiderman 2.1" Has aditional 8 min. added the the movie. Very good movie!!
-
I watched my new DVD of "Major League, The Wild Thing Edition". That Bob Uecker is hilarious as the play-by-play announcer.

Craig does make a very good 007, doesn't he, Jay? I don't know what all the earlier talk was about concerning his fitness or unfitness for the role. IMO, he's more believable as someone "licensed to kill" than were the others. He doesn't cut the bad guys any slack.
Also, I think he's just as handsome as the others but in a much more rugged way. Not such a "pretty boy" look but still damned good looking. He looks like more of a man's man than a lady's man.
Can you believe the stuntwork in that first 10 or 15 minutes? Outta sight!!!!!
My wife and I both loved the new Bond. In fact the only thing that I had a problem with was they didn't really play the bond theme till the end of the movie. -

Lord Of The Rings. Does anyone else love them as much as I do? I saw the first movie four times in the theatre and the second and third twice each. Since they have come out on dvd I have watched the extended version of the first movie another seven or eight times and the others two or three times.
The wife and I watched the fellowship of the ring again two weeks ago and then the two towers last saturday and this week were finishing it off with return of the king.
These movies are so epic in scale and so uplifting in their morality and good over evil that I can watch them a hundred times. The sam/frodo relationship is just so heartwarming that it makes me smile
Frodo: I'm going to Mordor alone Sam.
Sam: Right, and I'm coming with you!
I agree, love them. It was nice to see a fantasy story get the royal treatment. Kudos to Peter Jackson and all at WET in New Zealand. -
I watched my new DVD of the A&E Biography of John Wayne. Nice addition to my library.

Todd, what's Pathfinder about? Sounds like a War Movie ;-D
Oh and, just finished watching Pilot episode and episodes 2,3,4 & 5 of The Time Tunnel TV show. Darn shame that the show did not last much more than one season as its a very well made show.
Carl,
Pathfinder is about a Viking child who was rescued from a Viking ship that crashed on the shores someplace in North America 600 years ago by a tribe of indians. The indians raise him as one of there own even though they have reservations about who he is and what he might become. Well as you probably have guessed, the Vikings come back when he has grown up and he has to make a choice. I will leave it at that, although I am sure you can probably figure out what happens next. As far as I can tell its not a true story. I shouldn't say that its a bad film or not worth seeing in the theater, its just that I thougt it could have been done much better. And the story of the Vikings is really a un-explored territory for the most part from the powers that be residing in Hollywierd, so I think it could have been much more to the story. but they focused at times on the fighting more then the story which brings us to the often bloody battles and missing appendages. -
While I was in Atlanta last week I went to see 2 movies at thye theater. 300 and Pathfinder. They were both only renter's in my opinon with Pathfinder being the maybe not even a renter movie. Very bloody, that's all I can say about both films.

Saw Constantine in HD last night... I'm really falling in love with HD.
It is hard to go back after you have watched a movie or a TV show in HD.
I just wish the companies would stop with this format war and make a decision on what format they are going to use, HD-DVD or Blu-Ray. Either that or make the player that LG is selling that can play both formats cheaper, right now its around $1200. -
Watched "Goldeneye" and the "Children of Men". You guys all probably know the Bond flick but the "Children of Men" was just odd and alittle disturbing.
-
Watched "Everybody's Hero" with the family. Its a animated kids movie about a kid trying to get Babe Ruth's bat back to him during the World Series. Fun litle movie for the kids.
-
Watched "Walk the Line". Love that Johnny Cash!!
-
Watched Happy Feet with the family on Friday night. Fun little kids film.
-
Hi Todd, glad someone here admitted to at least watching that show. In my area--that show has not been played since the early 1980's--with the exception of it playing on TVland about 6 years ago.
What is HD net movies?
Carl, HDNet is a High definition movie channel. They have 2 channels one that shows movies all the time and the other focuses on news shows, music, hour long dramas like Star Trek, 1/2 comedies, ect...
The movie channel is currently showing McLintock, Red River, and El Dorado(These are the Duke movies) plus many other movies that changes monthly, some good some bad, but they are all in high defintion. El Dorado was amazing on HD. -
"Curse of the Were-Rabbit"???????????
You must be hard up for something to watch, Jay.
Kid's movie. Must be entertaining grand kids??
My kids got a kick out of it for awhile. -
Watched another disk full of 2nd season of Hogan's Heroes. You good folks are missing out! ;-D
I am not missing out!! I have sen them so many times from reruns on the TV. Plus for awhile they were on HDNet movies like a year or so ago and I copied a bunch of them. There is some funny stuff there, for sure!! -
Over the last couple days I have watched 3 movies with my kids.
The Mummy and The Mummy Returns(both new versions)
