Thumbs up
Friday night we went and saw Man of Steel. It was a good one to see. Hopefully they will make more with the casts.

We haven't been to the movies for a very long time...now that we are middle-aged, it seems like all of the movies are for the young crowd. I don't enjoy the noise of the super hero movies. We like smart comedies and great dramas, which are sorely lacking nowadays

Right now, I am thoroughly enjoying Batman: The Dark Knight Rises.

Plans for the summer movies: The Lone Ranger, Despicable Me 2, Wolverine and Monsters University.

Two movies, that I want to see, when they are released on Netflix are The Internship and The Purge...ooohhh and of course 300:The Rise of an Empire

I watched a movie I had never heard of before, pay for view, put out by disney called "John Carter." Really good si-fi with a twist or two. I loved star trek, star wars, and other movies like that. Felt this one is worth a re-watch. I also loved Avatar, and would watch that again and again. ginnie

Hi Debbie,

Most movies made today are for the younger crowd.
See: Hollywood Demographics -- Who Goes to the Movies?

That said, the kinds of movies you like are still being made, but often (with notable exceptions) bypass theaters for direct-to-video distribution.
See: direct to video movies

Hi Ginnie,

I waited (literally) 50 years for the release of A Princess of Mars (1912), the book on which John Carter was (loosely) based (I think they waved the book over the film can ), and the first in a beloved 10/11 book series by the author/creator of Tarzan. Unfortunately, the reception by critics, moviegoers, and disappointed fans () was mixed enough that a planned sequel is in doubt. At one point, Jon Favreau (director of Iron Man 1 & 2, and others) was tapped to direct, and his intention was to film a trilogy true to the first 3 books of the series.

If you liked the movie, I can highly recommend the books, which I've read multiple times.

Doc

I can't go to the movies or watch TV now. I loved going to the movies and watching them at home my husband installed a projector in the ceiling, surround sound speakers and a 92" screen for me.

Sadly I can't enjoy it!

But, I loved comedies...arsenic and old lace, 50 first dates (thank goodness my head injury was not as bad as hers), and movies I am unable to predict the outcome!

Love black and white movies!

Jace
