Sarah | 13814 comments Inception looks pretty cool. Christopher Nolan + Leonardo diCaprio.

Get Him to the Greek has a chance to be funny since Forgetting Sarah Marshall was hilarious in large part to Russell Brand's character Aldous Snow, the protagonist of this movie.

Salt may be terrible, but it has Angelina Jolie in an action role, so I will see it.

Inception is the must-see for me.

I would also like to see Salt; the trailer is phenomenal.

I wish there were a movie I was looking forward to. I don't even know what is out there!


Jackie "the Librarian" | 8991 comments I saw Robin Hood already, so I'm good, thanks. :)

Did you like it? I've heard some good reviews, and some bad.

ms.petra (mspetra) Toy Story 3, Inception, Salt, and I promised my nephew (15) Prince of Persia


Jackie "the Librarian" | 8991 comments Robin Hood was pretty good, not great. Lots of battles with messy visuals to convey the confusion of medieval battle, if you know what I mean. And I had trouble understanding a lot of the dialog, but it didn't really matter.
The plot was "how Robin Hood became Robin Hood", so it was all prologue to Sherwood Forest stuff. Richard the Lionhearted coming back from the Crusades through France, with Robin one of his archers. I do enjoy looking at Mr. Crowe, so I wasn't disappointed. And I like Kate Blanchett, who played a strong-willed Maid Marian who grows to respect and love Robin.

Spoiler alert:








There was only one place where I rolled my eyes, and it was when Marian puts on chain mail and joins the battle, and has to get rescued by Robin, who has to fight his way through the confusing battle to do it. Neayah, no. Didn't buy it, that she would do that, that he would notice what was going on, that it would be a nick of time kind of save. Bleah, no.

I smell sequel, by the way...


Jackie "the Librarian" | 8991 comments Oh, and I really wish it had committed to its adult topic, of war and medieval life, and been rated R, not PG-13.

Peter Travers of Rolling Stone said the new Robin Hood should appeal to the Tea Party folks, which I found amusing.

I also forgot: we really want to see Toy Story 3. We're going to take Sophia; this will be her first movie-going experience, and she's seen the trailer enough times to be excited about seeing it.

Kevin  (ksprink) | 11469 comments i think i may want to see Prince Of Persia. not crazy about going to the theater but i would score major league points with my wife if i just up and took her one evening. especially on the motorcycle and then to get ice cream at Scoops afterward. although if i took the truck we could go parking later.....

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments Not at the same time...

On my list of celebrity crushes who appear in my dreams on occasion:

Russell Crowe (visits frequently)
Clive Owen
Hugh Jackman
Javier Bardem
Britney Spears (we became BFFEs in my dream - WTF?!!)
Matthew McConaughey
Justin Timberlake

And the celebs who confound me because they've appeared in my dream as really cool and fun when in real life they don't do much for me:

old school Vince Vaughn
Robert Downey, Jr.
Backstreet Boys age Justin Timberlake

RandomAnthony | 14536 comments Sooner or later it all comes back to celebrity crushes...
