Ok - here's the choice I have:
Fifteen Minutes (no idea what this one's about)
Joe Dirt (hmmmm... I don't think so)
Moulin Rouge
The Gift
The Mexican
The Mummy Returns
Thirteen Days (another one I know nothing about)
Whipped (ditto)
3000 Miles to Graceland (ditto)
All the Pretty Horses (ditto - sounding like a cracked record!)
Croc Dundee in LA (No thanks...)
Chocolat (already seen it)
So - what's your verdict?

Hi Chyna, Good to see you.
We're a bit behind the times here.
The latest movies this week are ( I think )
The Perils of Pauline,
Abbot and Costello,
Oklahoma and Blue Hawaii.
Next week is Breakfast at Tiffanys and Bridge on the River Kwai !!!
Or is it that I haven't been to the cinema for a while!

Psst pharlap - "Pearl Harbor" opens down here next week. I'm going to head to the drive-in on Friday night - got to see it on the big, big screen!
Michelle
*edited to add: I thought it was advertised as June 6 but new movies are usually released on Thursdays so I'm not sure now. I'll go check the paper...

A real honest-to-goodness guy.
Gosh, you guys... (Pharlap & Bits)
Those movies must be really old, I've never heard of some of them. I would say "Chocolat" but you've already seen that.
I guess I stay up the latest, huh? I haven't been to bed yet and its 4:37am.

chyna, Don't worry about us lot. We're not too serious.
We don't lag too far behind the States with movies, maybe a month or two at best.
Seems like a lot of our Aussie films and film makers are the flavour of the month on your side of the world just now.
What's the big ones showing for you right now?

Bob, Downunder but never down.

Next Thursday June 7
BabyG never sleeps - well, hardly ever. One month old babies are supposed to sleep lots. This kid averages 10-12hours/day tops - in one or 2 hours intervals and hardly any of those after dark And when he is awake, he screams - gut wrenching, turn purple in the face because you dared to put me down type screams.
It must be a boy thing - my daughter was not this much work! (My sister tells me it's my penance for having the perfect child the first time).
Ahhh - the joys of parenthood.....

Hi nettak, You are looking at a champion!
I've been undefeated in the last five tournaments and that wekend at Robina Woods is getting closer. If I can win through the next four matches it'll be good enough to book me my place in the field.
Keep your fingers crossed.

Hi Mouse & Nettak!!!
Mouse - I was leaning towards the Mummy Returns actually Have you seen it and is it good? I never saw the first one but somehow I don't think storyline is really what you would go see a movie like that for

Go see Pearl Harbor when ya'll have the chance. I liked Gladiator, but that one is getting kinda old now....to tell the truth, I usually watch movies on PPV or by rental. I don't care for theaters.
I guess I'd better head to bed now, it's nearly 5:00am and I've finished working. I don't want to risk turning into a pumpkin.
Ya'll (I'm suthern) have a great day and it was nice to meet you... Seeya!

Oh I've been bebopping around other threads and playing games and browsing eBay.
Goodnight Chyna, drop in again!
I haven't seen it yet Pharlap, but I have a free ticket. Can I bum along? Speaking of what you see movies like that for...I saw Bedazzled with Brendan in it tonight.
Hi Michelle! I was just thinking about you today and wondered how you were!
Hiya Netta, get my email?
Bob! Our main man and now champion! Woohoo!!
