what was ok with it? did u get the box set of it? if so, how's the packaging? also, was it pretty @ 1080p? lastly, how'd u like the emperor's new voice over death scene? thx!

I'm gonna get the Blu-Ray 3D set. Space battles in 3D while drunk or stoned == win! That scene in Attack of the Clones where Skywalker is jumping from spacecraft to spacecraft would be awesome!!!!11!1

Drive
Me recent suggestions in this topic were "foreign" films. "Drive" is an exception, it is an "American" film although Nicolas Winding Refn is from Denmark. Actually his award at Cannes was the reason for choosing this film at first place and it was a great choice. Gosling performance as an almost silent but fully tensioned driver for a crime syndicate is almost perfect. As in all good noirs he is just in the wrong place the wrong time. But he is tough and he can become really violent to protect what he thinks is important and to be honest Mulligan is more than beautiful even my wife agreed .

I hate spoilers in an action thriller and believe me this movie is the best of it's genre so that's all for the story. All the actors are great, photography is fantastic and the director is a genius

If I'm not mistaken one of the regulars of this topic likes Michael Mann atmosphere in movies and he is enjoying watching good car chasing in LA. Don't miss it.

9+/10

Last thing i watched at the movie theater was the last Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.I thought: good movie but the others were better. I liked the 3D thing ,btw.

I had actually never seen Twin Peaks before. I really like it.

Considering the last two posts I am either missing something or am lost.

Well--I suppose they aren't movies per se. Is that what you mean?

Considering the thread title per se.

The description you give reminds me of The Driver starring Ryan O'Neal with Bruce Dern. This movie attempted to be Noir through almost artificial means, there was virtually no dialog just alot of pathos most of the time, but the characters were very ambiguous, confusing the situation. An interesting though not great movie, but I will watch out for Drive, I really enjoyed Ryan Gosling in Fracture.
