Saw a couple of great movies recently (recommend a movie master thread)

[Jaden]

the most amazing move ive watched in a while was called:

The Prestige.

I cant recommend it highly enough.

[shredmaster]

Really? i kept looking at my watch. the last 5 mins. were the best, mainly because it was "the last 5 minutes." just my 2 cents. they took wayyyy too long to build up to the end.

[Andy43]

The Pick of Destiny was great, if you didn't already see my other thread. I agree about The Prestige being better than The Illusionist. The best movie I saw this year was probably Pan's Labyrinth. That movie was FANTASTIC.

[C.Thep]

Casino Royale was awesome.

BLOOD DIAMOND!!! Wonderful movie.

and.......Fearless

Costello is definitely an Irish name and very popular in the West of Ireland, especially Mayo. Back me up here Mr. Gilroy

Little Miss Sunshine is a great movie, and very, very funny. Not for kids due to the cursing, but great for putting in the DVD player after they've gone to bed.

best part of departed was when everone was getting shot randomly lol

[jaxadam]

The Guardian was good.

M:I 3 was great.

V for Vendetta was okay.

The Departed was pretty sweet.

An Inconvenient Truth was an eye-opener.

I am really disappointed in a lot of movies I see these days.

*SPOILER*!!!!!!!!!

That was pretty random when Leo walked out of the elevator, though...

[newbieguitarmaker]

i can't believe i'm saying this but i can't wait till the ninja turtles movie and the transformers movie

[ll Mr Blonde ll]

Reno 911: Miami! Was HILARIOUS!!! Way funnier then i thought it would be! Doesn't get enough respect and good reviews. Its a shame.

Ed Norton always does great movies. Another one, just because this month is Saint Patty's day, is the Boondock Saints. Awesome movie.

[Distantshore]

Very cool Thread! I'm on Blockbuster Online Very convenient, since I can return them to the store and there is one just down the street.

I have been adding a lot of classics to my list:

Bourne Identity

Full Metal Jacket

Grumpy Old Men

as far as new stuff, I would have to say:

Running Scared (lots of action)

Unknown (good thriller)

The Return (All right movie. More of a thriller than a horror as some have described it)

Monster House (Kids movie. I actually prefer these sometimes)

Open Season ( Kids Movie.I'm not much of a Ashton Kutcher fan, but I have to say he did a real good job with the voice in this one.)

That movie inspired me to become a Catholic

You are right Jim!!! it is considered an Irish name nowadays but it is not a real Irish name or traditional Irish name per se!!! If I am not mistaken and this is what my Scott/Irish wife told me Costello's real origin might be either from the Spanish armada or Roman!!! just my 2 cents but once again I acknowledge I was wrong and stand corrected

BTW, he weasn't supposed to be Italian, they were an IRISH mob.
