Chasseurs de dragons also known as Dragon Hunters is definitely worth owning. Great moments and laughs. 2 weeks ago

Dragon Hunters is a fantastic tale telling the adventures of two dragon hunters: the world has become a vast conglomerate of islands of varying size and shape. This babbling universe is mainly peopled with ruthless rogues, surly peasants and illiterate, petty lords Their main concerns revolve around two fundamental rules : Eat and don’t get eaten. For this new world has become infested with a terrible plague: omnipresent, monstrously famished, mutant creatures, are wreaking havoc. They are known as : THE DRAGONS GWIZDO and LIAN-CHU are two dragon hunters, but are a long way from being among the best. Their only real talents: the size of the hulking brute with the heart of gold, Lian-Chu, and Gwizdo’s talent for scams of all and any shape or form. Their sole ambition: to buy a little farm where they can chill out and raise mussels, a creature that is a lot less unpleasant and difficult to hunt down than dragons. A few islands away rises the fortress of Lord Arnold. Arnold has a problem: he’s living in terror at the thought of the return of World Eater, that horrible dragon that returns every thirty seasons to spread terror and destruction. Nobody has been able to conquer him. In fact nobody’s ever returned alive to spread the news of how the fight went. Zoe, the grand-niece of the lord, has decided to take matters in hand, and has met Gwizdo and Lian-Chu. Persuaded that she has found the heroes of her dreams, she is going to drag them into the maddest of adventures…



Two favorites of mine are with James Garner- 3 weeks ago

Support Your Local Sheriff (1969) In the old west, a man becomes a sheriff just for the pay, figuring he can decamp if things get tough. In the end, he uses ingenuity instead.

Support Your Local Gunfighter (1971) The story of a man who took the law into his own finger! A con artist arrives in a mining town controlled by two competing companies. Both companies think he’s a famous gunfighter and try to hire him to drive the other out of town.

Marvelous dialogue, plot and just great laughs all around! These are definitely two must own movies!



It's A Boy Girl Thing 4 weeks ago

Refreshing and a bit different from the other “Freaky Friday” and likewise films. Soundtrack was great as well as lead characters. Worth seeing and owning!

Woody and Nell have been next door neighbors since childhood, but couldn’t be any different. He’s a jock, she’s a nerd, she’s graduating to Yale, he’s going to second rate college on football scholarship. Despite being next door neighbors, they couldn’t be any different and neither have any love for each other; in fact the despise one another intensely. But all that is about to change, courtesy of a trip to a local museum, and a run in with a Mayan god of sorcery, which leaves them in a situation where the term “Walk a mile another person’s shoes” soon occurs next morning.



The original tv series Firefly and the movie continuing it-Serenity! 3 months ago

I absolutely love the Browncoats and Malcolm Reynolds with his whole crew. Definitely worth seeing and owning!



WALL-E 3 months ago

I loved the heartsick little robot and all the friends he made along the way-the cockroach and Moe. Eve was fantastic and whoever thought up all these little quirks in the movie was a genius. Must see movie and well worth the money to see again too!

Definitely plan to own this one!



3:10 to Yuma was excellent with 7 months ago

Russell Crowe & Christian Bale. Plot was solid, with a few surprises thrown in. Thoroughly enjoyed the actors and felt their performances were top notch. Eye candy was nice too. The ending was a great too, even if it’s not the way you may have pictured it.

Definitely one to own for me!



Quite a few films from Guy Ritchie...seems like a funny bloke. 10 months ago

So far I’ve seen Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. I now want to own both of those films. My niece loaned me Crank, and I noticed Revolver is coming out soon along with RocknRolla, both directed by Guy Ritchie. I even liked bits from Swept Away, so definitely a director I seem to like and I find the dialogue and story lines/plots quite good. It’s remarkable to see how a situation mushrooms into something completely different and how a rotten deal can turn into a sweet one.



Thinking about this list... 10 months ago

I have some ideas… but not alot of time left…

One of my first recommends is Enchanted with James Marsden and Susan Sarandon. I loved Pip, the little chipmunk in this and some of the conversations were just awesome in this. Worth seeing in my humble opinion and owning!
