Thor
Bridesmaids

Most movies/shows I have are blind buys since I haven't been to the movies since March and before that was probably December or early January

Maggot · 09-09-2011, 05:58 AM

Below are a couple of movies that have or are coming out that I have never seen before. For those who have, could you tell me how good they are and why?

1. Scarface......just bought this.
2. Dressed to Kill......just bought this.
3. Straw Dogs.....considering
4. Good Will Hunting.....considering
5. Citizen Kane.......will be getting
6. Breakfast at Tiffany's......will be getting
7. The Fisher King......considering
8. Bridesmaids......will be getting

Again, believe it or not, I have never seen these and any comment as to why they are great for you or in general is appreciated. As I've shown, some I have bought or will be getting as they are considered classics and others I am considering as Blind Buys, I am not sure about.

DTK is the only one of those that I've seen. I liked it...it had a sort of Hitchcockian feel to it...a murder mystery without a lot of blood and gore. And there's a twist at the end.

Yea HBO kind of dropped the ball on that one by not picking up the actor's options. I think they were planning on making a couple movies to conclude the series, but those plans never came to be

Received yesterday : Rookie Blue Season 1

MikeCL · 09-09-2011, 02:43 PM

Picked up today as a blind buy *Hitman* because I missed it in the theatres and Olga Kurylenko is in it

I have the dark night on it's way from Amazon.

Both of them are great movies, Good Will Hunting features, in my opinion, the best performance from Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Robin Williams. The writing is incredible, the entire movie is just fantastic. Such a great story.

Scarface has just a really entertaining plot about Tony Montana's rise in illegal drug business and Al Pacino gives a great performance-one of the best of his career.

Thinking about doing a blind buy for Crank and Crank II (two pack).

Are they worth a blind buy?

MikeCL · 09-10-2011, 12:01 AM

Can't wait till I get home to watch Whitman in full

The Dark Uniter · 09-10-2011, 12:35 AM

My next blind buy will probably be Zombie which I've never seen before. I also plan to blind buy Scarface, Once Upon a Time in the West, and Shaun of the Dead.
