Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961)

Audrey Hepburn's character was annoying at times, but I sort of identified with the wild-spirt-afraid-to-commit attitude. As predictable as the ending was, I still enjoyed it. Poor Mr. Cat!

I identified more with the writer guy.  I've been a couple of borderline platonic/romantic relationships in my lifetime with girls like Holly Golightly.  They suck and NEVER end up the way they do in this movie (although, the speech he gives at the end of the movie is awesome).  Note to all you young guys out there...Dump girls like this.  They will never come around like they do in this movie.  You're wasting your time.  If you follow my advise, my time on this earth will not be misspent.

I still like the movie, though.

I agree! You don't want to get into a relationship with someone who's overly capricious and unsure of what they want. Huzzah for clichéd entertainment, so we can enjoy these things even if they probably won't happen.

Dr. Doolittle- The Eddie Murphy one.  I was kinda unimpressed with Nutty Professor, but Dr. Doolittle was a cute flick.

Underdog

Man, did this look stupid. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how funny it was. I guess being a dog lover, all that doggie humor hit home for me. The movie was still silly and goofy, but I ended up liking it.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Transformers.

It probably helped that I was more a HeMan, Ninja Turtle, GI Joe Fan and didn't care about the 'legacy'. They were cool toys, but didn't hold up to punishment so I never asked for any.

Yes, they needed a lot more robot fights and a lot less human banter, but it was very fun big screen experience.

Next up is cloverfield, just because I have an innate curiosity for places people tell me to stay away from.  :hot:

The Longest Yard (remake 2006)

Since it was on Showtime a lot, I couldn't avoid it. But I did watch it, and it's really pretty good. I have to see the original version, now. It's been a while.
