I will second Titanic. Halfway through that I wanted to scream out "Would somebody please start acting!"

Pearl Harbor sucked. Never saw the picture, but any movie where a fairly short bald man, who has always been one of my heroes, is played by Alec Baldwin has to suck.

Baldwin was superb in “Glengarry Glen Ross.” He was bearable in “Beetlejuice.”

Was Fargo a Coen Bros. Movie? I loved that .

It was OK. I think Raising Arizona was the best they ever did.

No! Not a perfect movie, but it had that something which pulled me into its world. That waiting room is what I remember, and Batman was perfect in the role.

I only ever saw it once, but I remember the day.

You forgot Tom Cruise.

Did you see the movie with Tom Cruise? The one where he plays a really cocky guy.

See, I disagree. I think he was stellar in the Aviator. I also think he was very good in J. Edgar. He was good in Shutter Island as well as The Departed. He is a good actor. He is also a flaming liberal nut job, but a good actor none the less.

Actually, after Octoshark [or was it Sharktopus?] I've come to the conclusion that they do that on purpose.

The Edge was EXCELLENT.

It had Alec Baldwin and Anthony Hopkins in it.

Alec Baldwin dies.

He gave up acting a while back and lives in a little village making shoes.

Seriously.

Once in a great while, he pops up for good roles.

The last time I went to the theater to see a movie was to see Twister in 1996. It’s just something I don’t do.

Yes but as mentioned, Raising Arizona is a watch it over and over again flick.
