Location: SE Louisiana | I've watched several good movies in the last month... The Dallas Buyers Club, The new Hobbit movie and American Hustle all rank right up there along with 12 Years a Slave, Out of the Furnace and Lone Survivor. The biggest surprise for me tho was a Sci-Fi movie I didn't see coming called Ender's Game... This one blew me away. Still can't wait to see The Jack Ryan movie out now and NOAH in early march. |

Location: Kansas | Aaaah, you actually go "to" the movies. I watch for them to come on Starz and Cinemax. Saw the Hobbit, An Unexpected Journey, the other night. Fun to watch but a little weird. The Great Goblin's chin for instance........

| wow!! I agree with Dallas Buyer Club and Enders Game ... Enders was A FABULOUS book and yes I am biased but the SO thought it was a great movie too!
I also thought Captain Philips was great! I didn't know the story but my SO had followed it in the media when it happened, so we rented it. Dang I couldn't predict a thing and I do love me some Tom Hanks as a lead actor  |

Location: Louisiana | Interesting facts about Dallas Buyers Club... (and I haven't had a chance to see it yet, so I'm not sure how big a scene it is, although it is in the previews)
The bull riding/rodeo scene was filmed at LSU Ag Center in Baton Rouge. I grew up running 4-H shows there and still attend their annual rodeo the LSU rodeo club produces (they filmed during the actual rodeo).
A couple of my friends were extras behind the chutes and were the actual bull fighter and clown. They just recieved these buckles a couple weeks ago, which I thought was very nice and not expected.

May I ask how you can get these movies on your computer? Would love this.
Yes you may ask.. there is a server called viooz that collects these from all over the world and streams them. They have mirrors in 38 countries. I just watched one called Nebraska that will come out on DVD Feb.25th... I recommend this one to anyone that grew up in rural America. I think everybody here will find parts of this they can relate to. |
