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!!!

beast (5h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (5h) : I could be wrong there though

beast (7h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (7h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (19h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (21h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
