New Movie List

Last year around this time Robin, Matt, Forrest and I compiled a list of upcoming movies that we were anxious to see, and it worked out rather well. I was dropping a grand a month at The Rave, but it was great. We were well entertained. There are quite a few promising films coming out soon, so here I've made an initial list of "must-sees". I realize I'm probably over-looking a few good ones, so feel free to update/judge my film taste as you please. All release dates are subject to change, because I'm obviously not a very thorough researcher. Anyway, here you go. Also, Robin, I wrestled with the idea of including Beverly Hills Chihuahua on here because I know how frenzied you are to see it, but I figured I'd spare myself and let you go see that one solo.

You could see some of these at the Capri? They're serving wine and beer now, or so I hear...

This is Nic, Matt's brother..

anywho, on with the comment..

I haven't heard of many of these titles - maybe i've been slipping on my movie-going ways ( I suppose not having a steady residence or income for a while will do that!)

Choke looks good, but I was mainly commenting, b/c I don't know that The Curious Case of Benjamin Dutton looks good or not.

It's new, and unique for sure.. but overwhelmingly awkward. I don't know how good 'ol Bama'r will respond to an elderly woman being romantically involved with a toddler...man.....thing.

It'll be interesting to see how the whole thing plays out for sure.
