The Lovely Bones

Night_Sprite

I read the book and understand the purpose, but every time I see a preview for that movie, it just looks depressing.  I don't think I'll see it.  What do you think about what you know of it so far?

I read the book and really want to see it. But after seeing My Sisters Keeper and having them completely uproot the ending I'm really not sure they could do a good job on the movie.

I loved What Dreams May Come. Also agree with PP that Atonement was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

OMG Sarah, that's what I said when I saw the previews for Avatar. I told Manda, "That looks like Fern Gully with military clones added in for fun!"

WHAT?  How can you guys say that about Atonement?  That was one of the best movies I've ever seen.  The music, the scenery and cinematography, the story, it was awesome!  I was haunted by that movie for days after I saw it.

Honestly, i watch a LOT of movies, and so does Steve. Each of us has different taste, but we  both agree that Atonement was the worst movie we have ever seen! That includes ridiculous films like Fools Gold or The One.

danieliza1127

Wow, we watch a TON of movies too.  I guess you and I just have different tastes in movies because I thought that one was one of the best. 

SarahSmile23

yeah. i've already learned this week (via fishy) that i have horrible taste in movies because I liked Up lol!

my BIL loved it, too, which is how we ended up watching it. and i will say that that one long scene on the beach was stunning. that was ALL in ONE shot!!!!
