We just watched The Conspiritor and The Way Back.

We thought that both of them were great flicks.

Funny, I thought the same thing a few days ago.  Brazil was brought up in an article I was reading on another site.

My picks:
The King's Speech
Raging Bull
Donnie Darko
Glengarry Glen Ross
Enter The Dragon
Howl's Moving Castle
Spirited Away
Princess Mononoke

Guarding Tess is a good one with Nicholas Cage and Shirlene McClaine. I like Steel of Magnolias too

No and no but she is pretty hot for what someone in their mid-60s (the movie had a year of 2007). There was a sex scene but no nudity.

Friday night I went to see Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter and I can recommend it.  I wasn't sure going in since it sounded like it could be kind of a cheesy representation that could be mocking of such a great man, but I liked it.  It kind of comes off like the new Batman movies with Christian Bale, except with an actual historical person.  And I was pleasantly surprised by the politics--all of the vampires were democrats.  Abe probably wouldn't be flattered by it but I think it comes closer to the truth than Oliver Stone's movie about JFK.
