Guardians of the 69 Plymouth Galaxy or something like that.

Best movie of the summer. Total blast.

I'm assuming that was an advanced screening. I was going to wait to see it on DVD, but a buddy of mine loves the comics it is based on and got a group of us together to see it tomorrow night. Looks like fun.

Also, the after credits scene leaked online. Should be a good WTF moment when people see who is in it.

Sharknado2, because, Sharknado.

Just catching "Stripes" for like the millionth time on one of the Encore channels.

Very sad that even though the movie is not that old (1981), three of its main actors -- Warren Oates (Sgt. Hulka), Harold Ramis (Russell Ziske) and John Candy (Dewey Oxberger) -- were all taken too soon.

Addendum: Watching the credits, I noticed Stillman's girlfriend (the bimbo-like character he was trying to score with when he discovered his "fucking truck" was taken for a joyride by Murray and Ramis) was played by an actress named Lois Aurino. For the heck of it, I googled her and it took me to IMDB.

Turns out, we can add Miss Aurino, who also went by Lois Hamilton, to the gone-too-soon list from this movie.

In May 1999, she suffered a broken jaw, vertebrae and hip in a head-on car collision. She was under the influence of cocaine and diet pills, among other things.

Then, on Dec. 23 of the same year, she locked herself in her hotel room at the Sheraton Hotel in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She took several pills and placed a plastic bag over her head and died shortly thereafter.

The really sad part? She was far from a bimbo. She attended Temple University and the University of Florence in Florence, Italy, where she received degrees in Psychology and Fine Arts.

RIP, all.

I watched Stripes last night, too (or early this morning, if that's what you prefer). I, too, watched the credits and was surprised to see Bill Paxton as "Soldier."

I googled and found this video on Yahoo!

Great find, OT! Are we strange for watching credits and googling people? BTW, I really like Paxton. I believe it's in "Aliens" when he goes into his "game over, man! Game over!" rant that kicks ass.

Watched "Heaven is for Real" tonight... enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

I felt the same way. It was a pretty good film. I expected a preachy God movie, but it's far from that.

"Planes: Fire and Rescue."

Kid loved it, which is what matters.

"The Conjuring."

I had high hopes, and it disappointed about as much as a film can disappoint. Haunted house movie by numbers, with a frustrating number of loose ends left on the cutting-room floor.

Is it appropriate for kids under 10? I think it sounds like a good family film, but I don't want to scare the shit out of my kids.

Very appropriate for kids. Good family movie.

13 Assassins
Not bad... First Japanese movie I have watched in ... ever?
It was pretty good. The action is a far cry from American movies, but the last battle was about 30 minutes long. Again, nothing great or grand, but OK.

That scene is the funniest scene in a thriller ever!! "I don't know if you're keeping track of current events, but we just got our asses kicked out there...." Man I love that scene.
