    Yes sir. just not my cup to tea is all. Jeff Bridges is the only reason i would ever leave the channel on if the opportunity presented itself. I prefer movies from the past (LOTM, Braveheart, GONY) over future.present (Tron, Transformers, Iron Man).

    Actually..i just realized i hate comic books. Intresting.

    I thought it could have been better. 6/10 for me. Visually it's awesome, the story and some of the acting is weak.

    Really want to see True Grit. A little disappointed by the review, but we'll see. It's not Burn After Reading twisted is it? Because that movie was one of the worst I've seen this decade.

    I've been trying to convince my wife that we need to see Black Swan, but she doesn't believe me when I say I want to see for reasons other than Mila Kunis getting the munchies.

    Agreed on True Grit. I love westerns but I about walked out in the middle of this one.
