Fast Times was made in 1982. Are you sure that is the proper parallel?

My bad, my bad, I mean all those '82 kids

Rocky Balboa



First time I'd seen it since at the movies. I really like this one. It's a sweeter version of the whole Rocky mythos and basically a re-do of the first one.

I DEFINITELY like "Little" Marie better than Adrian. Adrian was weepy, pasty, week. "Little" Marie tells him to "get up!" instead of holding her head and looking pitiful.

Rocky doesn't win, but he does. It's a good one. Stalone's creepy "old man muscle" is inspiring.

One thing.....his hands are SO HUGE for a 5'9" guy. Do you think Stalone's real life streroids and HGH use have made his hands so freakish?? I know they can cause strange skeletal growth, I wonder if his hands are part of that?

Anatomy, a horror/thiller from Germany. I hate subtitles, but it was pretty good.

I just watched Superbad on recomendation by friends, definately the funniest movie I have seen in a while. Superbad is like the senior class film of 2008 that fast times at ridgemont hight was for all those 90's kids.

Despite the wrong years for Fast Times, I thought it was more of one of these teen partying movies. Fast Times focuses on Spicoli smarting off in school and all that. Superbad's about ALCOHOL and SEX. I can see the comparisons though.

No Country For Old Men.

I'm going to watch Into The Wild tonight, I'll tell you how it is.

i saw the new rambo the other day and it really sucked ass

The Big Lebowski.

Meet the Spartans. Avoid like the plague.

One of the greatest ever

Class Of 1984

Maybe the first film for Michael J Fox. Not his typical fare.

I myself think that Napoleon Dynamite best portrayed my own High School experience.....or anyone whose ever lived in a small town, that is. There's nothing very over the top or over-glorified (pep rallies aren't like some kind of mini-Roman Coliseum event), it's just simple and bland. It best expressed the basic tedium of the High School experience better than any other movie on earth.


.....Also, I just got through watching 300 for the third time. It's AMAZING how thrilling this movie is.

Saw IV

Never watched Into The Wild, but my brother was sick today so we watched: Catch Me If You Can, Napoleon Dynamite, & Piglet's Big Movie.

Is that a movie or are you asking us a question? If it's a movie, how was it? If it's the latter, probably because you were lonely.

Ha!! It's a movie!

It's a Tyler Perry movie, if that means anything. Four couples (college friends and/or their spouses) each year vacation together and talk about their marriages and how to improve them. All kinds of drama ensues, secrets revealed, lives shattered and repaired! Momma-type stuff, but there was enough interesting parts and eye candy for me and actually some funny moments.


Fishinggd - Cool! I think it will go down as a "mini" classic for me. It just has a sweet mood. The whole movie is a nostalgia trip and then some actually decent boxing scenes at the end.

Since someone mentioned Tyler Perry movies...

Napolean Dynamite did create that same effect as superbad. Actually, napolean dynamite is funnier I think.
