Watched '2012' last night...didn't care for it at all, seemed interminable and a waste of John Cusack, whom I usually like!

Marcy-- I won't see Avatar until it's on free tv! lol

I'm probably the last person in America to see 'Avatar,' but finally saw it today. Amazing production, but it seemed long and the stereotype Marine bad guy was almost comical with that jutting jaw. Watched it on DVD (Blu-ray) but must be so cool in 3D.

"The Blind Side" is a great movie. It is not difficult to understand why Sandra Bullock got a reward for this movie.

Marcy-- I don't know the others, but Joe Montegna is great in everything I've seen him do!

Sounds like a good one.

My dad and I both love that one!
One of mine is called "The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit," based on a Ray Bradbury short story. It's a heartwarming comedy about five guys who pool their last dollars to buy a beautiful white suit that they're convinced will change their lives. It stars Edward James Olmos, Joe Montegna, Esai Morales. Just a great little movie.

I really like The Rookie. It's a true story about a high school baseball coach in texas who missed his chance as a big league pitcher because of shoulder. He motivates his kids by telling them if they win district, he will try out for the majors. Great story w/Dennis Quaid. I've probably seen it 8 or 9 times:)

"A coming-of-age story about a shy young boy sent by his irresponsible mother to spend the summer with his wealthy, eccentric uncles in Texas." (imdb.com)
Great cast - Michael Caine, Robert DuVall, Kyra Sedgwick, Haley Joel Osment.
