So I thought it might be a good idea to start a topic in which movies that are or will be currently in theater will be discussed. I go to the movies a lot, and sometimes I wish I didn't spend my money on a particular film, or fall completely in love with a movie on dvd later and wish I had seen it on the big screen! I think it could be nice to read people's opinion on whether something was a good movie or not, and it can also help people not missing any good ones! I'm going again today, and I'm down to two choices: - Ted - The Dark Knight Rises (again, but I don't care ) I have no idea whether people will use this or not, but before/if anyone starts posting: Give a…

As time goes on they Hollywood seems to run out of ideas of what to do for movies and has resorted to just turning tons of books into movies or just remaking ones from the past.... over and over. Today I went to the movies and saw a preview for a remake of Footloose! At first, I thought, "Oh no, not another one." but as it went on I saw it was closer to the musical version than the movie and I thought, "It could be okay, if they do it right." It just got me interested in what all of you guys thought. With all the ones they've done. And are getting ready to do... (I even heard about a possible Dirty Dancing remake ) Should they just leave the classics alone? That's why th…
