Temptation looks great!! I would like to see that. Good actors. Probably the only one worth paying for at the moment.
The last one I saw was The Great and Powerful Oz. It wasnt nearly as good as the original but entertaining i guess. Snitch with Dwayne Johnson was good..
This Spring, though, there will be several movies coming out that look promising.
 :peace:

My husband and I have seen Oz The Great and Powerful (which we totally loved).  I would recommend watching the original Oz movie first, just to keep up with the little inside jokes.

We have also seen the Croods.  Did NOT care for it. 

Gonna have to check out the Tyler Perry movie.

We do not go to the movie theaters, though.  This is partly due to me having epilepsy.  So we watch the movies at home.  *coughcoughdownloadonlinecoughcough*

I loved Oz the Great and Powerful.  But, this is probably in part due to the fact that L. Frank Baum (the writer of the Oz stories) is my personal hero, and I do not believe in personal heroes.  He was a fantastic man.  He based many of the characters on people he knew in life.  This movie was a prequel, obviously, to the first Oz movie.  I would not compare it to the first simply because they are two vastly different stories.  Wizard of Oz is a classic for many reasons.  I do not think Oz the Great and Powerful will ever be a classic like the original Oz, but it was a worthy effort.

No clue.  I haven't really been to the movies in years.  We only really go if there is a movie that we are really interested in seeing, which doesn't happen all that often.  There are a few out that looked interesting but I can't think of any of the names right now.

We do not have the money to see movies in the theater. So none.

We dont go to the movies very often maybe 1-2 times a year, but last year we didn't go at all.  Nothing ever looks that great to want to go spend the money on it.

I might go out and watch The Croods, Olympus has Falled, or G.I. Joe, but I think I'm more likely to hold out for next week, and go see Evil Dead, I've heard is awesome, which is saying much for a horror movie these days. Oblivion seems pretty interesting, but it's a couple of weeks away, and Iron Man 3 is a month away. So I have some options for the time being.

I am looking forward to see the Call by Halle Berry.....This seems to be a suspence movie. I think Halle Berry is so cool.

I'm tempted to see Evil Dead as well... However on Faceoff (SciFi's makeup artist competition TV show) had Bruce Campbell on and he mentioned that it is much more serious than the original. But what I liked about the original series (esp. in Army of Darkness) was the humor... Not sure if trying to be serious will actually backfire and make it not as entertaining...

I haven't been keeping up with upcoming releases lately.  I probably won't go to the movies until the big summer movies are out.

We wont be going to the theatres until summer is here. Until then, it is watching dvd's at home.

THE HOST!!! Some of you may recall my post (IHOP and pregnancy). Well my sweet generous loving boyfriend is taking me to sate my craving for warm, fluffy, wonderful mounds of goodness and following it up to take me to this movie. So excited.

Before Stephanie Meyer became famous for her award winning novels that later became blockbuster hits, I read all of her books. Including The Host. Not particularly happy that she turned this brilliant writ into another big screen event because the book was so awesome. However, I'm not going to hate, so I am going to see the movie. :))

I need to get with the program and see what is playing. It has been awhile since I have went to the theater. I love the drive in.

I always avoid going to the theater, personally - it's too expensive.  I'd rather wait until the DVD comes out or just see it on Netflix.

Oz maybe.  Saw the 3-D preview at California Adventure a few days ago and it looks great!  Maybe The Host.

I haven't been to a movie theater in probably 10 years. It's something I never think of.

We have a great drive in theatre here and I am going to take my son to see The Croods tonight. We get to bring our food and drinks. I like the theatre popcorn so we are going to purchase that there.  :thumbsup:

I haven't seen any of the Tyler Perry movies.  I don't know why but they just don't look funny to me.  A friend is trying to get me to go see 'The Host' and I might go but I have no idea what it is about.
