Wife and I like to unwind at least one evening per week with a rented movie at home. Funny, that most of the critically acclaimed flicks don't do much for me. I guess I like mindless escapiism entertainment.

Recently rented "Rocky Balboa" and thought it was pretty good. Why I wanted to see it was because I wanted to see how Stallone could pull off this flick when he filmed it at age 59!

He may not be a great actor but man, the guy is in shape for an older dude. I found it very inspiring from that aspect.

This is something we've (my wife and I) have talked about doing, but just haven't made the time to do it regularly.

We did make it to the theater to see "Wild Hogs". I thought my wife was going to have a coronary she was laughing so hard. Still won't let me cash in my retirement savings on a Harley though.

We have a hard time doing this because my wife only likes Romantic Comedys and while I like a wide variety of movies romantic comedys are my least favorite. so every now and then we will rent a rc for her and I will watch it with her. She will start to watch what i want but usually go do something else when it becomes too much for her.

Wife and I saw Wild Hogs this past weekend. Great flick and damn doesn't Marissa Tomei look great!! I have gotten permission to include her on my list of women who I can have an affair with if she would give me the time of day.

Has anyone seen the New Spiderman movie, and what did you think of it?

For my birthday (the first part of this month) my son got me a DVD set of 20 John Wayne movies. Looks like I need some beer and a long weekend

We rented "The Queen" a couple of days ago. I thought it was excellent.

I haven't seen it, but I really liked Helen Mirren in the Prime Suspect series.

Hey, went with some buddies to see "Tropic Thunder". Very funny (very very funny in parts), with Tom Cruise being the most surprisingly funny one in the movie - as hard as that might be to believe.
