A bunch of my friends have seen The Notebook, and said it was amazing.
I wouldn't suggest it to most guys though, it is apparantly quite sappy.

I wouldn't recommend it period. :lol:

I see a lot of movies.
Anchorman - funniest movie I have seen in a while.
King Arthor - If you are into that sort of thing, then it'll be alright. I would say its a renter. Not that great, but not entirely bad.
Farenheit 9/11 - Its the sort of thing you have to see.
The Terminal - Intriguing. Reminds me of Cast Away, but not cause Tom Hanks is in it.
Spider Man 2 - Had really good parts and really long angsty annoying parts. Many plot holes too, now that I think about it.
Dodgeball - Also really funny. Better then what I was expecting.


...thats all the movie tickets that were in my wallet right now.

I also figured out that myself and my best friend have spent at least $220 on seeing Lord of the Rings in theaters alone. We never bothered to add in when they were released on DVD. :P

I started watching Cold Mountain...I liked it the first time but I'm not sure I'd recommend it now.

The Notebook was awesome if you are missing some romance in your life...:lol

I think I've seen pretty much all of them now except King Arthur.

Haha, I have yet to see Napoleon Dynamite, but that guy is a mormon. He goes to the uni I'm going to. He's also from the same TINY town in Idaho that my Grandpa grew up in. Small world.
