Just curious~
Last movie I watched was:

CaddyShack (Old school, but still funny!!!)

INCREDIBLES!!!!!

fahrenhype 911 after watching Fahrenheit 911, and Hero.

Fever Pitch.  Quite funny I might say!

The last movie I watched was Twister...one of my favorites. ;)

Hey now!


"I gotta go....we've got cows!"   Favorite line.


My last movie was "the wedding planner".   Yeah I know a chick flic, but I liked it.  Was on TBS the other night.

Just watched it tonight...... 10.5

It's about a mega-earthquake.

 You're a brave, brave man!  :P

 Hotel Rwanda. Great - moving.  :'(

Bronzesnake

that looked decent one of the most moving movies that i watched that was seqular was Ladder 49, i dont care if im a guy its a sad movie.

LOL...brave for watching it, for admitting watching it, or calling it a chick flic  :D   (or all of the above..lol)

 For admitting watching it of course!  :D

INCREDIBLES & FAT ABERT  HEY HEY HEY FAT ABERT  LOL :D

lol, I hear that. I love it, but I have to turn it off right before he says to pull everyone out. JP is crying, JT is crying, then they do that crazy flashback thing at the end. If you don't cry in this movie, I need help! :'( :) THey need to make more movies like this, for soldiers and police officers. Help people to understand it isn't the fun and games we see on TV, and understand the sacrifice these guys makes for people they don't even know (like us). It is a wonderful movie with a wonderful message... and also the last one I've seen  ;D

shhhh:::whispers..."I liked the movie Titanic too":::   :)

Bronzesnake  :P

What is that? Some kind of grotesque style Homer Simpson?

No! That's a very recent picture of me!  >:(  :D

Ya, it's Homer. I'm not really horrified or disgusted!  ;D

I still say you deserve a medal for bravery beyond the call of duty though.

Smokey and the Bandit

One Im sure Tom, has reservations one. Tom of course, being a ex-cop. I just bought the pursuit pack, it contains all 3 movies.


Eastbound and down 18 wheels A rolling.
We going to do what they say can't be done.
We got a long way to go, and a short time to get there.
I'm east bound, just watch old bandit run. ;D

 ;D  All of this stuff is far too intellectual for my tastes. (Small Print: Yes, I'm kidding).

I couldn't find a re-run of the 3 Stooges, so I'm trying Home Alone 3. I don't watch many movies, but this one looks like fun. I'll let you know.

DOH!  ;D

The last movie I went to see was The Passion of the Christ.
It was a emotional draining experience. When I think of how Mel Gibson presented the agony of what Christ did for us on the cross, I think of the horrible sins in the world that had to be covered.
I purchsed the movie, but I still can't bring myself watch it again.
Did anyone here see this movie? If so , what is your opinion?

God bless,
bluelake

I did. I was not greatly impressed. Good cinematography, good acting, and he did a good job of showing Catholicism in a way Protestants can respect. However, I think, as a movie, it could have been WAY better. Jesus’ death gave us salvation, but his life taught us how to live our own. I think Mel should have done it like he did Braveheart: Starting off from when he was a Child, and working its way up to his death. That way, he could have should a LOT of Jesus’ teachings, giving a more rounded view of Jesus. This Catholic obsession with Death is sickening to me. People would have gotten more out of a professional actor reciting Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount then they ever would from a 90 minute snuff film!

I also do not like the attitude that so many Christians have that “If you don’t like the Passions, then your heart isn’t right!” The Passions in not the Bible, it is not infallible, James Caviezel is not Jesus, and Mel Gibson is a member of a cult that denies all post-Vatican II Catholicism, and claims all Protestants are going to hell. I really worry about the guy’s mental heath. :-\

In short, it was visually well done, and well cast, but it could have been MUCH better!  2 out of 5

Tibby, I gave, "The Passion of the Christ."  4 1/2 stars.

Oh come on, I gave a 2 paragraph reason why I gave it 2! Why do you give it 4.5?

I watch WOOOO.....with Jada pinkett.........it was funny.

INCREDIBLES

I promised I would let you know about Home Alone 3, and I forgot.

I had 10 paragraphs of information about the review, but I think that Tibby swiped it.  ;D

I give Home Alone 3 just a 2 1/2 out of 5. There were a few laughs, but I didn't think it was nearly as funny as Home Alone 1 and 2.

Just for the record, I gave Home Alone 1 a 4 and Home Alone 2 a 3 on the laugh meter. Keep in mind that I give 5's to several of the 3 Stooges Episodes.  ;D  It almost needs a good pie fight to get a 5.

If I'm in an intellectual mood, I watch The Little Rascals or Laurel and Hardy.  ;D

Star Wars-Revenge of the Sith. Excellent film  ;D

"Strategic Air Command" on "American Movie Classics" cable channel this AM. A great movie for viewing vintage 1950's air force aircraft and bases. Beautiful pictures of the B-36, B-47, Globemaster cargo carrier, and the KC-97 mid air refuel tanker.
 Some great shots of these planes in everday movements of SACs practice missions back then.

If you like airplanes you will like this. The story is a typical Hollywood stock in file drama.

ollie

I think I remember that movie from eons ago.  Did it star June Alison and Jimmy Stewart?


Grace and peace,
cris

Yes, I think it was made in the early to mid-fifties. It is a great movie for vintage airplane watching.

ollie

Try some Charlie Chaplin. They are great and always a message about the little guy caught up in the schemes of the few in control.

ollie

I just watched Bicentennial Man on DVD ;D

Luther

Yup. Docudrama on THE Martin Luther.

Ollie, I would rather watch, The Three Stooges.  Which come on in the morning at 6:00 am here. So for those of you on the east coast, that would be, about 8:00 am. ;D Have any of you seen there new movie? ;)

Brother, I can't remember the last full-length movie I watched. Are you saying there is a new Three Stooges movie? If so, I just might have to watch it. I mainly watch 30 minutes to an hour at a time. YES! - I still watch cartoons. Maybe I'm in my second childhood.  ;D  BUT, they have to be the old cartoons like Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Daffy Duck, Road Runner, etc. How about the good old days?

Last full length movie I watched would have to be Batman Begins. i'm a big fan of the batman series for some reason. So I took a weekend off and stayed in my dorm, relaxed and watched it on the campus television here on campus. It was rather interesting...:)

Brother Tom,

Once you watch that Three Stooges movie you might want to watch the following two.

 ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

your T3 Stooges are a little on the big size brother. It will work though as a wallpaper, for my computer. I am heading off later today to see, Herbie, Fully Loaded. From what I understand, it is a good movie, for the family.

Herbie, Fully Loaded y'all should see. It is a family movie, and worth seeing. Course I am a little bigited cause it does have some NASCAR stars. ;D   I would sit down with Jesus, and watch this movie.

There ya go. I got it fixed now to a better size.

I gotta watch those pixel sizes instead of the inch sizes.  :D :D :D

I can't remember how long ago it was, but I remember reading in the Christians Unite news that Hollywood learned there was a fairly big market for clean movies appropriate for Christian families. I wish they would investigate and find out that the same is true for television. I honestly believe that their ratings would improve with clean programs, but this appears to be a mystery so far.

I was just thinking about a trend, and I really don't know how many years are involved. There was a time that regular television programs were clean and someone had to buy pay television for the dirty stuff not fit for family viewing. Now, the opposite is becoming true.

As far as I'm concerned, the best comedies, movies, and other programs of all time were completely clean. HOWEVER, FOR WHATEVER REASON, I really don't think that Hollywood wants to do clean programs these days.

Love in Christ,
Tom

Hebrews 13:5-6 NASB  Make sure that your character is free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU," so that we confidently say, "THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?"

I agree. I have had to turn my TV off this last couple of weeks except for the weather and news. It has been full of sick movies because the scheduling has been concentrated on "Halloween" type movies  ......  vampires, devils, evil spirits, etc.  Even the History Channel has gone to showing movies of this sort.

I know my TV is set right now, on the Speed channel. The only time, I change the channel is for the weather and news. Course the Speed channel carries racing. Which has the IROC race from this morning on now. ;D

Good clean movies, are rarity today, and becoming scarce. Bollywood, seems to want filth, with is garbage. When I want to see a movie. I want to take Christ with me, not satan.

"Have any of you seen there new movie? ;)'

Is that the new "Dawn of the Dead" sequel?

 8)

The third Left Behind movie.  We got it Wal-mart Friday and watched it yesterday.  We both liked it.
betty

I just watched Dangerous Beauty, It is also a True Movie! I Like this Movie, because is True and made me cry a lot.  :D

Ollie,

I'm sorry to be so late in replying and finding this post. I love the picture and added it to my collection. WOW!!!  "Bad Boy 3 Stooges" - it's GREAT!!  ROFL!  ;D  ;D  ;D  Thanks!

Last movie, I went to was the Lion the witch and the wardrobe.
Aslan looked great.

Shaw Shank Redemption, this was a very good movie. has anyone else seen this? :)

Hi Phil 4:13,

Welcome to Christians Unite. Yes I have seen it but it was quite some time ago and I really don't remember much about it.

American History X and Fight Club, wonderful all the way. I was having a Norton Night.

The last movie I watched was called The Gathering, I watched it on a new Christian channel. The channel is Total Christian Television, it's a new channel.

The last movie we watched was the notebook. what a wonderful husband he was. such unconditional love and God's is even greater than his!!!!

Sheryl, that movie is a real tear jerker, I only cried once while watching a movie and that's when I watched The Passion, but the Notebook had me and
( my husband) crying.

The last movie I watched is "Left Behind" Tribulation Force.

And on that note, I'll see y'all in a few hours. I need to do some shopping, so I can cook dinner for Lizzie tonight. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Watcha cooking brother?

Country style ribs, mashed taters, and corn on the cob.  The ribs were so tender, you could cut them with a fork. The mashed taters were homemade, not a mix. ;D

Why it must be midnight by now, where you are sister. ;D ;D ;D ;D

yuppers, and I'm sitting here munching on cheezeits and drinking coffee. ;D ;D ;D

Well, I'm drinking coffee, and listening to Yankee Doodle Dandy, starring James Cagney, as George M. Cohan.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

That's an old movie. I only watch about 2 hours of tv a day usually when my husband is home other than that I hardly turn the TV on. I prefer to read or listen to Christian music.

Well with this being the movie topic. I was posting the movie, I am listening to. ;D ;D

Although I myself think, most movies today are garbage.

you're right about that brother, there aren't many movies I would waste my time or money watching.

My husband and I just got through watching an old Christian movie titled "The Hiding Place", it's based on a true story, about a Dutch family who were Christian watch and clockmakers, the family name was Ten Boom. The family were quietly sheltering Jews in their small house during the WWII era. When the Nazis discovered the family's secret they were taken to a concentration camp were they endured a true test of their faith.

I just finished watching, "Father Goose."

 ;D ;D ;D ;D have you seen Mother Hen????????  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nope but I just put in "The Wackiest Ship In The Army."

The Army has ships?  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nope, that's why it was waxky.

 ;D ;D

musta been a land boat  ::) ;D

Nope. He said ships not boats.   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D


The Army did have ships at one time. I could be wrong on the time but I believe it was up until 1950 that they had ships. They still have boats in service right now.

The movie is a comedy, made in 1961...............................

Plot for "The Wackiest Ship in the Army"

In the spring of 1942, the New Zealand government presents the U.S. a 70-year-old wooden twin-masted schooner. The US military decides to use the ship to place spies ashore behind Japanese lines. Jack Lemmon and Ricky Nelson provide comic relief in a film set during World War II. Sight gags abound. Even when the inept crew of the "Wackiest Ship in the Army" is fighting the Japanese who have taken over their ship, we are given reasons to laugh.

Hijinks and spyjinks lighten this effective comedy by Richard Murphy, based,very loosely on an actual incident in World War II. The place is somewhere in the Pacific and the not-so-good ship USS Echo, captained by the comic Lt. Rip Crandall (Jack Lemmon), has a very specific assignment. The floating anachronism has to safely carry an Australian spy deep into enemy territory where he will be stationed to report on the Japanese fleet's activities. Since the Echo should have been dismantled and sold for its parts long ago, this assignment is not easy. As the military and its stereotypical traits are parodied with sophistication and sharp humor, the Captain and his motley crew do their best to successfully complete their mission.

The Worlds Fastest Indian.
Not a Christian movie,  but since I like motorcycles........
I was pleasantly surprised. :)

Last movie I watched was Esther. It is a story that I always find so inspiring when I red it, I have seen various versions of Esther, but the one I watched last night was the one that was closest to the Bible.

The last movie I saw at the theatre was "World Trade Center".  It was very very hard to watch.

I want to see that movie.

It is rated PG-13 and the Passion of The Christ is rated R.  I don't think that that was fair.

Hollywood isn't fair to Christians.....that's the conclusion I've come to.
