I also saw Monsters vs. Aliens this past weekend. It was definitely very cute.

One thing I've noticed is that it looks like all the CGI animated releases for this year will be in 3D. While I think the technology is nice, I wonder if the studios are overdoing that trend. That $3.50 surcharge is going to annoy moviegoers after awhile.

Oh i watched Lake View Terrace with my husband too! Wow that was a crazy movie. And , yes i know, i may not be 'up with it', and i might be 'behind the times' but i finally watched Twilight this weekend!- i loved it. But then again i either love horrors or those cheesy high school movies. i usually dont give in to those tween drama, go nuts, sit in a line for 13 hours kinds of movies, but i did and i really liked it.

i missed the recent friday the 13th, but i managed to watch it online, not the same, but nonetheless.

i want to see i love you man, my fav band has a cameo in it, it looks really good.

Over the weekend I saw Stepbrothers and Superbad. I though they both were hilarious movies.

I loved those movies too Gizmo! I laughed so hard! Two others I'd recommend are Hot Rod and Pineapple Express. Very, very funny!

Thank you for the recommendations Lovey! I havent seen either of those movies, so I will definitely put those on my list. I have been into comedies lately.

You're welcome, Gizmo! Pineapple Express is definitely on my all time favorite comedies list. It started off a little slow but once it got rolling, it was hilarious from then on. I'll be curious to know how you like it when you get around to watching it.

I saw Sunshine Cleaning this past weekend & really enjoyed it. I hate to compare it to that other Sunshine movie, but I'd say if you liked Little Miss Sunshine, you should give it a try. They're same in that they have quirky families facing serious issues, but both very different in terms of storyline. I thought Alan Arkin's grandfather character was funny & it was nice to see Amy Adams playing somewhat of a different type of character.

I've also been renting a lot of Spanish language movies lately. I'm making up for a 3 yr. period where I didn't see any Spanish language movies at all.

I watched Tropic Thunder today. I really didnt care for it, it just wasnt my type of movie. It was actually quite boring.

I just watched Seven Pounds tonight and let me tell you it was the saddest movie I've seen since the notebook. So be warned if you watch this one to grab a box of tissues.

Speaking of sad movies, I just watched Marley & Me. I read the book, so I new what to expect. Let me tell you though, I was crying like a baby actually seeing it. It was a great movie, just very sad.

Well I was gonna watch Marley & Me, but now I'm reconsidering. I'm a big crybaby.

Me too Lovey, I am a crybaby. It really is a great movie, just sad. I never understood why they kept pushing this as a family movie around the holidays.

i loved Marley and Me hubby got it for me for easter and we watched it and both cried

I watched Iron Man and Night at the Museum last night. I thought they were both excellent movies.

I love Night at the Museum.
It's such a cute movie.

I liked Night at the Museum too! Isn't there another one coming out soon?

Yes Lovey, I just read about the new one in a magazine.
It opens May 22, its called Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. I will definitely see this in the theaters.

Gizmo, I agree w/ you on both Tropic Thunder (blah!) & Night At The Museum.

Normally I'm not a big fan of Disney direct to DVD animated movies, but I ended up watching Cinderella 3: A Twist In Time this weekend. While it can't exactly compare to the original, this movie had some good voice actors. The storyline for this one was also good (albeit slightly dark).
