thanks for a nice comment alwaysprayingfor RAIN  :)
i haven't seen corpse bride, i know about though. maybe i should check it out.

ps. @alt.end: no songs/singing on coraline which i thought was a plus (i'm not a big fan of musicals).

You should absolutely watch Corpse Bride and I´m quite sure that You will enjoy it. Ít´s a bittersweet story about what matters in existance.
again and again and again and again and again and...

i really enjoyed it, too. thanks for the comment. my friends and family said it was 'weird'... i agree on that but for me that's something positive.

i do like musicals, i just don't think that it fits the genre pretty well, so the non singing is great :)
Say hello on a day like today
Say it every time you move
The way that you look at me now
Makes me wish i was you

American History X.



I've been on a bit of an Edward Norton kick lately and hadn't seen this one in a while.  A really powerful film.  Check it out if you haven't already done so.  Or, if you're like me and hadn't seen it in some time, do yourself a favor and give it another go.  

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120586/  190,573 voters can't be wrong.

The Good Shepherd (2006)

One of the best movies I have ever seen. 9 points from 10 in my opinion, a terrific movie, spy, dramma... and excellent direction by De Niro, terrific acting, a MUST




Warning: the movie is about 2h40 and is for people who likes complex movies, with many stories and situations going on. Is not the kind of movie where the facts are very easy to understand. There are also historic events as the Bay of Pigs invasion.

A MUST guys, a MUST.

The stomping on the sidewalk?  Yeah, that was pretty disturbing, as was the rape scene, and much of the dialogue in the first 2/3 of the movie.

Already watched this one back when it was in the theater.  Good story, cast, directing.  I believe this one is on my Netflix queue for another viewing.

I just saw this movie called The Swimmer, it's one of the funniest things I've ever seen, it's absolutely horrible really! The whole plot is like Burt Lancaster swimming in pools and every now and then he meets a woman and say something like "Marigolds? This time of the year?" or "Here's to sugar on strawberries! "   :-D :smth044
