Ok, so being the movie buff i am, i am really sad to say, i havent been to the theater to see a film, since "I Am Legend". :(

Last couple of years i have been movng back and forth and really havent had the time to go see any new filcks, so ive been buying them on DVD when they release, which can always lead to disaster.

Anyway, im strongly considering hittin the theater this weekend to see a movie. Lots of good ones are out, but im not sure what i want to see. I have a wide range of genres so feel free to suggest anything.

What's "I Am Legend?" (he asks just so cowboy can know there's folks who haven't been in a theater even longer than him :P ) It's ok to not be all "Mr Current Events" bro ;)

I am legend is a awesome film starring Will Smith about a virus that turns people into rabid zombie like monsters. Though I don't know whats playing if I may be so bold, allow me to offer up Grandma's Boy as a possible rental. If you haven't seen it before you should. :)

lol thanks for that Evan. I dont feel half as bad now.

I havent heard that much about Jonah Hex. I did google it just now and it seems like something i could get into.

Toy Stury 3 Has been on my list of must see's since i saw the previews.

(Not like ive waited 11 years for it to come out or anything. :rolleyes: )

But watching Grandma's boy dont sound bad either. Thats a movie ive seen 20 hundred times and still laugh when i watch it.

*sigh* decisions, decisions, Someone make my mind up. LOL.

I'm in the same position, haven't been to the cinema since term started. :(

As for some decent films you might have missed but are worth getting on DVD (like I did) if you want to take a chance on my film taste :P ... Sherlock Holmes (lots of hilarity), Avatar (lots of blue people), The Surrogates (lots of robot-avatars), Star Trek (lots of space), Fast and Furious (lots of cars), Angels & Demons (lots of antimatter)& G.I.Joe (lots of technology).

Are you guys trying to tell me that a movie has been released after "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen"?

I guess I need to go to a movie again - do they have sound now?

Love ya,

Sally

I forgot that you'd get films coming out at different times to here. *headdesk* Knight and Day has the potential to be good, and is apparently in a similar vein to Mr & Mrs Smith (worth a watch if you haven't seen it 'cause you can probably pick it up cheap by now). I'm hoping that the Karate Kid reboot is up to scratch but I'm think it's a 50/50 chance.

Hehe... I don't remember the last time I've been in a cinema, but I love movies. :D The mainstream film industry just doesn't offer good stuff nowadays.

I would have probably suggested Toy Story 3 in 3D, or maybe Karate Kid, but, obviously, I found this thread too late.

What movie did you watch, by the way?

lol I have a long list of movies I wanna see. I am a pirate like Belle :P so I am waiting until I am somewhere with a faster internet connection (aka college) so that downloading movies doesn't suck up all my bandwidth.

Yeah I'm now at home for the summer and realising I can't be as heavy on the usage every time I think to watch something. *grumbles* I miss uni! (Just not the work, a few weeks off from that is fine. :P)

I went and saw Toy Story 3 in 3D.

Was a really good movie and a great way to end a story.

I do have to say, i get that "there will be more to come in another 11 years" feeling.

I'm in the same position, haven't been to the cinema since term started. :(

Fast and Furious (lots of cars)

Yes! Get this! Awesome film. :P

Also on DVD:

The Hangover.

In the cinemas (it may have already been and gone where you are. So it might be being released on DVD there i dunno) Salt! Salt is a great action movie. Lots of action, okay so some bits are a bit far fetched like James bond like when she jumps onto vans and things (you'll see what i mean if you see it) but that was still awesome to me. Angelina Jolie is great, not to mention sexy. ;) The way she handles herself Oooffft! *calms self down* Honestly it's an awesome film! so yea that is another one. Salt.

Another on DVD

Blood diamond. Again it's another action movie, much more slower paced than Salt though but still good. Also a film that can make grown men at the least well up and at the most shed one or two tears. Blood diamond

The last king of Scotland. It's based around the same kinda theme/place as Blood diamond. It's quite...slow moving (at least for me. I guess I like fast paced things even though I'm actually very slow myself. ;) ) it's slow moving but again also an awesome movie. Forest Whitaker is excellent in his role, and can play an evil, insane man very very well.The last king of scotland Also this film is based on a true story

Twisted: Twisted is another good film. It's a thriller about a high case serial killer. There are lots of twists and turns throughout the film. Twisted

Shutter Island: Awesome film. Some scenes in some parts though are so clearly fake it's unbelievable. (meaning the scenery behind them looks fake) which is a bit of a disappointment, but it still doesn't stop the fact that it's awesome, and great acting. Another one with twists and turns. The ending is unexpected. Or at least it was to me, and that is part of what made it so great and memorable. It's out on DVD here in the UK not sure how long it will have been out there. You may be wanna wait a while till it's cheaper. That is what I tend to do. I watched this at the cinema though. Shutter Island

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford: another great film, also it's a western themed film. ;)The assassination of Jesse James

Broken Trail: another western themed film. Well actually it's 2 episodes. But still each lasts about an hour so it's about 2 hours if you watch it all together. Broken Trail

Link to comment

Oh and 1 or 2 more...

Or maybe 3..... We'll see... :P haha

Scent of a woman. Great film. Old film but still great.

Mystic River. That is another great film. It's a murder mystery. It's directed by the famous Clint eastwood. ;):P

and also just one more for tonight:

Basic instinct. An old film. But it's fantastic. One of my all times faves. Some intense scenes in it too. It's awesome!

YES!

That was a "Must See" for me! Forrest Whitaker was totally believable as dictator Idi Amen, also known as the 'Butcher of Uganda' .,..

I was in Africa in 1971 when he became dictator and we watched with great interest the killing and genocide he perpetrated...

..

Not only is Whitaker believable, but he studied the tapes of the late dictator and had his walk, voice and swagger down!

Amazing movie!

I'd forgotten about Salt! Probably going into town with a friend of mine tomorrow, will try and get to see it if the timing works out. Thanks for the reminder! :)

      Good morning, everyone!! I'm still battling the Worst Head Cold Ever. Just when I think I've turned the corner, it smacks me back down. If you've got stock in tissues, I'm driving up your profits.   Our early Spring has the grass growing quickly. I need to get out today and cut it before it grows over the house. Today is supposed to be sunny and mid-60s so I'll suck up not feeling great and get the mowers out. At least I'll be in the sunshine for a few hours. The next few days are supposed to be rainy so it's today or wait until the weekend.   Time for a second cup of coffee!!   Stay safe and enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!

      Welcome Mattie.  When i got here i was at a point bin my journey when i was discovering my path.  Writing about it and reading about others helped me greatly as did gender therapy.  Perhaps the hardest thing was finding self acceptance without feeling guilt at simply being me. Enjoy your time here.  You are not alone.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Ugh. The worst head cold. Ever.

      @Breanne_O You seem to be on your way there girl-- full speed ahead it was a real adventure for me 11 years ago.  
    • Breanne_O
      I picked a cancellation spot with Dr Lorimer yesterday and had my consultation a month early.  I had been worried about how it would go, but the process of exchanging information was nothing to worry about and I felt quite at ease throughout.  That’s not to say some parts weren’t challenging to articulate clearly, but Dr Lorimer’s manner helped enormously.   The GI/GD diagnosis was such a welcome conclusion to it all, and such an important milestone in my journey.   Now for the Endo consult waiting…

      This one is NOT over, and this is not a final final ruling on the matter since this was a procedural and not substantive ruling based on scientific evidence.

      I am on a three month review cycle for dosage. Do you have a plan with your doctor? I didn't discuss overall strategy when I got my prescription, it was a very long appointment. I was able to ask via web message to get a better idea; we'll check blood every 3 months and titrate accordingly. I don't know if we'll change labs to 6mo after a year or not, but that's where I'm at now. I, too, was like "is this enough?" at the start. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but I've seen positive results during the months at a lower dose and continue to notice changes. For instance, my skin sensitivity is much higher. I always wondered why my wife was so ticklish, but I'm starting to understand why. I'll bet I am 20-40% more sensitive to touch than I was before; gently tickling my arm (I would wake up doing this sometimes, up and down my arms) now makes my fingers tingle...in a good way. :)

      @mattie22 Welcome to the Forums Mattie.  Our basic view here is that if you have any questions about your gender then you are not Cis Gender and belong here for that reason alone, because if you are not Cis, then you are someplace in the Trans and/or Non Binary part of the world, and on this site, that is simply who is here, Trans and NB folks!  Be comfortable and do not be afraid to ask questions here, or even give answers to others from your own experience.

I. ok  I better ened this post. for now.

      Thanks for the great advice and support @Astrid. I appreciate it!
    • Astrid
      When you are sure you want to continue your HRT journey and the best dosage for you, consider asking your doctor for a three month prescription cycle (90 days rather than 30). This can result for some in considerable savings. It definitely did for me...   I am at the 4 year 5 month mark for my estrogen patches and am so glad I made the decision to go forward.    Best wishes!   Astrid
