What movie(s) did you rent and what are your impressions? This applies to last weekend and future weekends. I rented From Hell and Omega Code 2 Miggido(spelling?). From Hell was pretty good, the ending sorta surprised me, but overall, it was pretty good. Omega Code 2 was great. The only prob. was that God didn't actually step foot on the earth

All he did was shoot a beam of light down and vaporize anyone fighting with the Devil. But overall, I made good choices for what I rented. BTW: Both are DVD rentals. Also, I love the music that was played in the phonograph in the movie! It is also played on the 2nd disc. *decides to go look for the song*

Blade Runner · 07-09-2002, 11:11 AM

I rented Blade Runner. Its a pretty sweet movie and you could definately tell it was made by the same guy who made alien.

I rented Witness. Harrison Ford did a good job in this movie and I think he got nominated for it too, but I'm not sure.

I rented Unforgiven. This movie won best picture, director, supporting actor, and editing (methinks), but I don't think it deserved best picture. It was good and all but somewhat melodramatic at times. Gene Hackman definately deserved that oscar though.

I rented The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. I thought this movie was great, especially for being as old as it is. It isn't the usual western. It breaks the mold of what a western is. I thought Clint Eastwood was cool in it too. I liked this better than Unforgiven.

Um....thats about it for movies I've rented. I'm going to see Road to Perdition Friday!

This weekend I rented Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. I hadn't rented it on DVD yet, so I did to see the extra features. Plus, I just needed a refresher before the new one hits July 29th!

And have any of you stayed through the WHOLE credits, right up to the VERY end? First is the Jerry Spring and Scott not being a test tube baby. Then Austin and Felicity are in the room and I think Austin 10 mins. from now walks in. Then at the VERY end, after all the credits, it (sorta) shows Mustafa still on/at the bottom of the cliff still with the busted legs.

Those were great, I never noticed them in the theatre.

Black Hawk Down, PureEvil did rent.

Simply put, it was easily one of the best movies I've ever seen.

If you're at all into war stuff, and haven't checked it out yet, I suggest you go do so. It's just really, really good. Wicked movie.

That was such an awsome movie. A little slow to start, but once things got going, it was great. Personally, I think it deserved all those awards. Good stuff, good stuff.

Black Hawk Down RULES!

I recently rented 'The Sting'. It's probably my favourite movie of all time. It's an old one, it stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford. You should ALL see this movie, it is amazing.

My mom rented Spy Games, Urband Legend, and Soul Survivor...

I haven't watched either...
