So, Nick found this website and we were going thru it tonight. What a surprise to realize how many movies I havent seen. (AfI's 100 years, 100 movies.) Kim would be disappointed...
Speaking of movies, we saw Spiderman 3 on Friday night. I rather enjoyed it. Granted, we went in with no expectations. I have talked to my share of people that didnt like it, but I did. It was long, but felt it kept moving. It wasnt long for the sake of being long. I am not a comic book fan, so I appreciate that they give background and history on the characters and how they come to be in the position they are in.
Nick and I also watched Indiana Jones - the Last Crusade last night. Until 2007, I had not seen any of the Indiana Jones movies. Ive now seen all 3. I liked 1 and 3 pretty well...didnt care that much for 2. it was alright.
Upcoming movies Im looking forward to: Shrek 3, Pirates 3, Transformers (yeah...crazy), Ocean's Thirteen, Simpsons Movie and Bourne Ultimatum....thats a lot of threequels.
Im sure there are more...but thats it for now.

Excellent idea
Apocalypse Now is a great movie, but I guess I can see how certain movies (like that one) might not be for everybody. But on the other hand, I think everyone should sit through a Hitchcock classic, or a Kubrick, or a Fellini, or Citizen Kane, etc. etc., to realize techniques which changed the way we watch movies or made such powerful artistic statements. Keep at it - these make for good date nights! :-)
I'm with you on the Indiana Jones movie opinions. I keep hearing there will be a 4th, even with Ford at his age. We shall see!
