The Aviator (2004, directed by Martin Scorsese)
Phenomenal public success contrasts with private behaviors close to madness: Howard Hughes from the late 1920s to the late 1940s, from "Hells Angels" (spending a fortune on details) through the only flight of the Hercules, a huge, money-losing transport plane. Along the way, the public Hughes sees the big picture - in movies and in aviation, building TWA and leading it through a fight with Pan Am and the US Senate. In private, phobias and compulsions threaten him with self-imposed solitary confinement. How long can his imagination, drive, and the sympathies of Katharine Hepburn, Ava Gardner, and the men who work for him stave off these internal disorders? IMDB
Classic !!!.

Control
Even if parts of it might have been fictional, I thought it was well-done overall.

I saw Hellboy II.
The bad guyz were pretty cool. I thought that the golden army would play a larger part in the movie though. Oh wellz. It was good though.

The Dark Knight and unfortunately "Mamma Mia!" ...my best friend begged me to watch it with her. On the other hand, I was in hysterics when I saw Pierce Brosnan singing...lol.

Shutter
kind of stupid. there were a couple of kinda cool parts with the spirit pictures. the ending really creeped me out, but it was pretty cool. the plot was kind of dumb though, and the movie moved pretty slow.

Last movie I watched was "I Am Legend" starring Will Smith. I thought the movie was really good actually. I love when movies are set in a time when there is not much left of civilization and society such as "28 Days Later." I think "I Am Legend" did a great job of portraying this and showing how an infection took over the society and it's people leaving only one man to survive on his own. It was really kind of interesting. Oh yea, and not to mention the infected zombies we're just totally awesome !

Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe?
The Breakfast Club (1985, Directed by John Hughes)
It's the weekend, and five students have weekend detention. There's a jock, a princess, a misfit, a nerd, and a lout. Not much in common, except for having to give up their day, sit in the school library, and write an essay for the principal. Being from such widely different backgrounds and having such completely different personalities, it's inevitable that some frictions and shenanigans develop. Especially when the principal leaves the room... IMDB
Classic, one of my all time favourites, one of the best comedy films ever written !!!.

Star Wars 3. The number of times the characters alluded to the "Dark Side" is superseded only by the number of times "use the force, Luke" was uttered in the first one.

I wonder if that has something to do with it being part of the main theme.

I meant that the line 'use the force, Luke' was spoken only once in episode 4.

I got that loud and clear, several hundred times, by the time it ended.
4 & 5? Are we talking about the three original movies? That's what I meant.
