Re: OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately
Ah, of course. Should have figured that out! Thanks Kamog! 
I'm with you AT. There's way too much political correctness in movie (and in the larger picture, the world). It's almost as if people aren't willing to say what they mean anymore, for fear of someone accussing them of being racist, bigotted, chauvinistic, homophobic, intolerant, etc. etc.

Re: OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately
I just saw Brick with two friends; one hated it, one was "meh" and I really enjoyed it. I can best describe it as the mix of a 70's noir movie with Napoleon Dynamite.

Re: OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately
We're in the middle of "The Producers" which if you haven't seen the Oscar-winning original (1969, with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel), you need to.
The "new" version is the movie based on the Broadway musical based on the original movie by Mel Brooks.
We're enjoying it, but know the soundtrack by heart as we saw it at a "preview show" before it opened with Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick and won every Tony it was nominated for (fourteen?).
Worth a look if you like Mel Brooks or musicals. Or you like Mel Brooks and musicals. Or you like musicals with Mel Brooks. Or if... Well, you get the idea.

Over The Hedge
Took the nephews to see this one today. Not bad, loved the squirel, hated the turtle and rackoon. Good movie for the adults, kinda lame for the kids.
