    Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights

    In the words of Tim Allen, I would rather have my balls smashed with a ballpene hammer than watch this movie. Some movies do not require a sequel, this is one of them.

    War of the Worlds (Spielberg/Cruise)

    I have no problem with remakes as long as they are done well. With modern technology where it is, it makes sense to remake these movies to look better than they did in their original formats. I know this is taboo for movie purists, but I see no problem with taking a great script, regardless of...

    I really hope the Expos relocate in Las Vegas...

    They are going to have to move to a city with an established population. Another team in a transient city will not do MLB any good. Holy crap, the Expos swept the D-backs this season, all 6 games. How pathetic is that? Joe must go.

    Any Brett Hull fans?

    This is definitely a step in the right direction for the franchise. Nice to see he will be wearing #9 too. I never thought I would see a Hull wearing 9 again. I missed it a great deal when Bobby left Chicago in 1972. I just hope he does not come down with Coyote-itis and forget how to score...

    My opinions on recent moves...

    What is worse than the money he is making this season is what Joe gave up to get him. Like I said, they gave away the farm to get this guy. Sure, without the injury, things could have been a lot different. However, I don't think the injury makes this deal look any worse than it originally was...

    My opinions on recent moves...

    Even if Sexson would have had an MVP year, they overpaid for a guy whose contract was due to expire at the end of the season. So to answer your question, no. Injury or not, Joe got fleeced again.

    My opinions on recent moves...

    It's time for Joe Jr to move on. No, I did not want to see another deal like the Schilling one, or even worse yet, the Sexson deal. My point is, I cannot believe with all the contenders out there that the D-backs were not trying harder to make something happen. The reports about where...

    My opinions on recent moves...

    Joe Jr has completely dismantled the franchise and NOT getting a deal done for Randy Johnson was just another sign of his ineptness to refuel this team. You have to think Randy would have bent a little more had another great opportunity come up. Organizations that come to mind are St. Louis...

    Passion comes out for sale on August 31

    I still have not seen this and I am not sure I really want to. If I really want to watch pain and suffering, look no further than the news. I know it killed at the box office, understandably so. I'll probably watch it when it comes to DVD, but I cannot imagine wanting to see it more than once.

    King Arthur

    Excalibur rules Definitely the best of this genre. I remember seeing this in the theatre at the old Cine Capri when it first came out. There was a pretty hot sex scene in it as well. :thumbup: I still need to see King Arthur, but based on what I am reading, it will be on DVD in about a month.

    The Big Bounce

    The Big BOMB is more like it! I totally agree. This movie had no real flow, it was just a bunch of stuff happening that was supposed to somehow get linked together. I think they introduced a character for the first time with about 20 minutes left. I still work at Blockbuster a couple days a...

    Bourne Supremacy

    I went to see this over the weekend. We were at the Scottsdale 101 and in the second largest theatre compared to Cine Capri. Unfortunately, we had to sit too close to the screen and could not completely enjoy it. Aside from that, it was definitely worth the price of admission. I'll see it...

    Paycheck

    I rented this one a few weeks ago and before it started, I checked reality at the door. With that in mind, I really enjoyed it, enough to watch it a second time. I always enjoy watching Paul Giamatti, he plays a great schitso, troublemaker, paranoid, etc... Ben Affleck was, well, Ben...

    Movie-A-Day #186: Field of Dreams

    Indeed, one of the best sports movies of all time. James Earl Jones was fantastic. I love the scene where he yells at Costner when they first meet. He was so isolated and believable. Shoeless Joe seemed a bit more intelligent than the one DB Sweeney portrayed in Eight Men Out, another great...

    Starsky & Hutch

    Not a great movie by any means, but it had it's funny moments. If you watched the show in the 70's, it was cool to see all those funky styles and afros again. The cameo by the originals at the end was pretty funny too. In the coming attractions, there is a clip on Seinfeld coming to DVD. This...

    Coyotes Sign Mike Ricci

    Once upon a time, I would have known that about Savage. :shrug: Thanks for clearing it up.

    Coyotes Sign Mike Ricci

    I find it quite strange that so many teams are still signing players with the CBA set to expire. There will obviously be some sort of Grandfather Clause with existing contracts, etc.. On another note, Savage was traded to St. Louis at the deadline, so the Coyotes don't have to worry about...

    I, Robot

    Maybe it's just me, but I think it's pretty cool that they took all these good ideas from other films and packed them into one, good, two-hour popcorn flick. This was definitely worth the $6.50. We all know Hollywood loves to rip itself off all the time, so that is a given when you walk into...

    Oscar Nominees

    My point is, list your picks and lets see who gets closest, that's all. Stout, about Diane Lane, just a personal favorite of mine. Not necessarily what will happen, but she is uh, one hot 40-something. Chap, agree on Mystic River. I did overlook it as I have not seen it. Right now, if a...

    Thirteen

    Available on DVD on Tuesday, January 27. For a disturbing look at the life of two teenage girls who are on a four month downward spiral, you'll definitely want to check this one out. As a parent with a teenage daughter, I can tell you this one sits with you for awhile. This is what happens...

    Oscar Nominees

    The Oscar Nominees will be announced on Tuesday. I thought it would be fun to list our guesses and see what happens. I'd like to see them divide the honors a bit and spread them out. There were a lot of solid films and performances. They should try to recognize them all. Here are my...

    Hollywood Stock Exchange: HSX

    I added Mike and BIM's regular ports to my league. Right now, the next one in my sights is Mike, and he is a LOOOOOOOOOONNNNGGGG way off. ASFN_Bob_2003 is at $38,000,000+ right now. Not bad in a year's time. My league now looks like this.... I'd love to have more in there, but have been...

    Movie-A-Day

    Hey guys, long time no chat. I don't have a lot of time anymore, so I try not to get involved in conversations I cannot finish. Anyway, this movie-a-day stuff has been very helpful to me now that I am working at Blockbuster in Fountain Hills. I have viewed some of the titles on the list and...

    Official Lord of the Rings Thread

    I finally saw this movie last night. We went to the 10:45 showing at Cine Capri, and for a viewing experience, there truly is none better. The film itself is fantastic. There are so many great things about this movie. The only problem I had with it is that it was too long. I know several...

    Return of the King...I hope this review is bogus!!!

    You know that scene in the Two Towers when Smeagol is battling his inner self? That cracks me up every time. :wave: On a more serious note, this is where not having read the book is a huge plus in my opinion. There is no way that I could possibly be disappointed with ROTK since I have no...
