That really does sound like a very good movie. Maybe I should go see it aswell, at least, if it's a movie for 'my age' aswell.

I used to hate the Clint westerns, although I liked movies like Kelly's Heroes. He's quite an actor though and the movie did look pretty good in the trailers, although I couldn't really make anything out of it. They where quite unclear here.

I just got around to seeing a movie I had been avoiding. I'd seen parts of it here and there, but thought it was just a crappy flick from what I had seen. I sat down a few days ago and started watching it out of mostly boredom. The movie is "300".

It's still a stupid friggin' flick, but I absolutely loved it. The Spartans do not play. They quit school because they got recess there.

I wish we had a line like they got. I'd settle for it on either side of the line of scrimmage.

It's NOT stupid!!! lol

Seriously, I watching this movie about 3 or 4 times in the theaters. And every single time, I wanted to jack the first person that looked at me wrong in the jaw so hard his freaking teeth shattered. You are correct, the Spartans do not mess around. I love the opening with Leonidus before he kicks the messenger and his friends into the pit of doom.. Also, when he asks the Spartans what their profession was. Awesome, awesome movie.

I'm waiting for Gran Tarino to make it to Redbox. Should be any week now. Really want to see it.

As for Miracle at St Anna, maybe that's why I liked it. Yeah, it was fairy taleish. But to me that gave it a lot of charm.

Love 300.

I completely forgot to mention Taken. I actually saw this one on a big screen. I like that main actor. Forgot his name, but when he started kicking some tail, it was awesome.

I'll have to look up Swindle. Never heard of it.

Taken's main actor is Liam Neeson. Irish born. I heard someone mention how they hated his American accent in the movie, and to be honest, I didn't notice any bad 'American accent'.

And to add my 'Recent Movies'

I just watched it last night, so I have to throw 'Kung Fu Panda' in the mix first. Such a classically hilarious movie. Then again, I love cartoons and Disney flicks, so this was a given for me. Jack Black was HILARIOUS throug out the movie. You know it was good when my wife thought it was funny (she doesn't have the same type of humor as I do).

'Race to Witch Mountain' was a fairly good movie, as well. I remember seeing the original as a kid, but don't remember much details. So this was a nice 'throwback' for me. My wife LOVED it. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, again was awesome. This is a movie you could probably take the family to and everyone enjoy it. But, if you aren't into Disney feature films like this, I don't recommend it.

I liked Traitor as well.

I also liked Open Range. It was made in I think the early 00's and I rented it like a month ago and really enjoyed it. It's a very good Western.

I recently saw this movie, found it to be very good and it touched my soul.

"Taking Chance" is based on a real-life event.....
In April 2004, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Strobl, USMC, came across the name of 19-year-old Lance Corporal Chance Phelps, a young Marine who had been killed by hostile fire in Al Anbar Province, Iraq. Strobl, a Desert Storm veteran with 17 years of military service, requested that he be assigned for military escort duty to accompany Chance's remains to his family in Dubois, Wyo.

When one falls, another brings him home.

I watched "3:10 to Yuma" last night.

My wife doesn't like westerns but even she enjoyed it.

Maybe it was something to do with having Christian Bale and Russell Crowe in it!!!

Zero2Cool (12h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (13h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury
beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State
beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
