I watched that a few weeks back but I liked all the blood and gore that it had

Cool effects with the ninjas pearing from the shadows. Also at the start with the gang getting slattered. aka Ninja style.

"Brothers", finally a movie with a good story line and some GREAT acting!
"The Men Who Stare At Goats", pretty good comedy. Clooney had my side hurting from laughing so hard.

I have a NEW favorite for best 2010 DVD release ...... "The Blind Side"

Excellent movie, Sandra Bullock's crowning achievement, by far the best acting she as ever done.

What makes this such awe inspiring movie is that it's based on a true story. A definite MUST SEE movie.

Which is a better flick: Ninja or Ninja Assassin?

btw, what's all these multiple posts about New Moon? Read the review over imdb and many people gave a thumbs down.

Wondered the same myself, but to coin a phrase..."to each his own"...I guess.
Then again, maybe it should be "to each his/her own daughter"...

Couple that I have seen lately & liked:-

Boondock Saints: All Saints Day & Green Zone. Thought Hurt Locker was overated.

LOL I think you are not in the 16-24 year old female demographic. In my family at least, that is where the interest in this title was. I gave my youngest daughter the copy I bought for testing.

I agree, worst movie ever after Twilight

Somebody must have been padding pockets of the Academy Award judges..... Hurt Locker, best picture .... NOT !!

Hurt Locker and Twilight were just average flicks, Up in the Air, above average

Surprised at how Star Trek got so overlooked, at least Avatar took a few !!!

Yeah, I haven't seen the flicks you mentioned with the exception of Star Trek, but Shame on Them for overlooking it.
I thought it was a solid flick...great special effects, great cast (somebody in casting should receive kudos for sure), great script.
Just an all-around, solid flick.

To be honest, I haven't watched the Oscars in awhile and haven't enjoyed it since Billy Crystal hosted.
Remember when he spliced himself into the best flick nominees.
The Full Monty...
"What?... too Jewish for you?...LMAO

[AlienX69]

You saw Avatar, right ... kinda thought I remember you seeing it in 3D, maybe I was thinking of someone else .....

But "Avatar" beats "Hurt Locker" by a mile for best picture, next for me would be "The Blind Side" regarding nominees they selected for Best Picture

PS: I don't watch the Oscars either, I think it's fixed, Star Trek should have been one of the nominees !!

[maineman]

Yup, that was me. I saw Avatar in 3D (but not IMAX)... I was very impressed.
On some of the scenes, I almost experienced mild vertigo.

Wonder if IMAX provided barf bags for their patrons...lol

Glad to see some agreement with my sentiments about Hurt Locker, I thought it was just me. Dull despite all the action. Terrible. Boondock Saints II was better than I expected. Just got Blind Side and Brothers today. I think Star Trek did get an Oscar for something--maybe makeup. A great flick, and as noted the casting was amazing. All the characters were recognizeable as their younger selves. I gave it 3.8 out of a possible 5.2 stars (unusual rating system due to late discovery of movies better than the previous 5.0).

I liked Ninja Assassin better than Ninja as Ninja Assassin had more blood and gore
