    Gads, we haven't been to the movies in ages.  I don't even know what's coming out.  I would like to rent What's Wrong with Kevin.  The book was excellent.

    I've been reading a lot lately, but nothing stands out for recommendation.  Defending Jacob was pretty good tho.  I also read Jonathan Kellerman's latest Alex Delaware but I must not have been terribly impressed with it.

    ETA:  No, no; it's We Need to Talk About Kevin.  Sorry

    I want to see Cloud Atlas, Argo, and Taken 2. And I can hardly wait for The Hobbit to come out.

    Favorite Disney Movie is a tie between Bedknobs and Broomsticks and Robin Hood (the cartoon)

    I'm currently reading Once Second After again and it's really interesting.

    Has any one watched any new movies lately? 
    I saw Taken 2 last week. It was ok, pretty much the same as the first. 

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?
    I'm going to a screening of Paranormal Activity 4 next week and I'm excited about that. I also am dying to see Argo and Looper. 

    Favorite Disney movie?
    The Little Mermaid and Finding Nemo

    Recommend the book you've been reading?
    I started reading The Boy in the Suitcase a while ago but haven't picked it up lately. It's a little confusing but I'm sure my stopping and starting a few times doesn't help with that.

    We watched Lawless last week. It was very good, but pretty brutal.

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?
    Nothing super soon. Waiting on the Hobbit and Les Miserables.

    Favorite Disney movie? Beauty and the Beast, then Tangled

    Recommend the book you've been reading? Just finished Perks of Being a Wallflower. I loved it, but it's much darker than the trailer for the movie let on. I'm just starting The Casual Vacancy, which is good so far.

    rotfl - our theatre is open on weekends only, and shows one movie. I haven't seen a movie since last Christmas (other than the movie networks, and we can't stream because of slow internet, so no Netflix)

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?
    Nope. I used to go to the movies all the time. I do miss it sometimes.

    Favorite Disney movie?
    Toy Story 1 and 2

    Recommend the book you've been reading?
    Nah. i just finished The Happiness Project and it was meh. Am reading The Maze Runner now - another book club pick. It's a decent YA book, but nothing I would read on my own.

    Reality based kinda post apocalyptic look at a small town and family's response after an EMP attack. Interesting because I think it's the most likely real life scenario

    Has any one watched any new movies lately? I haven't seen anything new but I REALLY want to see Frankenweenie! If the movies weren't so freaking expensive we would go all the time.  However, since we try to save money we usually just watch old stuff from FI's extensive DVD collection :)  We just watched Misery last night...loooove scary movies!!!

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?     Probably Frankenweenie and Argo maybe.

    Favorite Disney movie?     Cinderella! I love everything about that movie, and I love just about every remake of it.

    Recommend the book you've been reading?     The last book that I read was The Great Gatsby and it was fantastic.  I can't believe that I hadn't read it until now!!!

    Has any one watched any new movies lately? Nope, still trying to catch up on tv. Too many premieres!

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?My H wants to see Looper, but I'm fine waiting till things come to Directv. It's cheaper and I can hit pause when I have to pee. Oh and my H's popcorn is better :)
     
    Favorite Disney movie? None.

    Recommend the book you've been reading? Still in my reading slump, but I've been trying to get through Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.

     That's one of my top 2 absolute favorites, all time, ever. Some days it is my favorite. I even have a t-shirt, hehe. Baz Luhrman (sp?) is working on a movie, and the trailer looks ballin'.

    Has any one watched any new movies lately? Taken 2. I don't even know why I watched it, since the whole concept is infuriating to me. Because clearly, after having been kidnapped and sold as a sex slave, you'd be totally fine with hanging out by yourself with headphones on in the hotel pool of a foreign country... but H loves action movies so we saw it.

    Any movies coming out you're looking forward to?     Just The Hobbit, of course.

    Favorite Disney movie?     I love the classic animated Disney movies. My top favorites are The Little Mermaid, Robin Hood, and The Sword in the Stone.

    Recommend the book you've been reading?     Since we had our honeymoon in Newport, we saw The American Heiress in every tourist shop and finally H bought it for me. So far, it's interesting, juicy, and fun.
