Ok, but just go ahead and turn your man-card in now.

I thought the first one was fantastic.  How would you rate the sequel (I haven't seen it yet)?

I saw the sequel in the theater. I thought it was pretty darn good. It may not have been better than the original but was close to it. I would have to give it 4 out of 5 stars.

That sounds promising.

No one asked my opinion,  but I thought Dragons 2 was better than the first. I found myself rooting for them in the theater.  I bought it for my son for Christmas, so I'll "have" to watch it again.

Thanks, that sounds even more promising.

Yes, Dragons 2 was on par with the original.

I also thought Hobbit was good but I'm also a big fan. A fitting end to the trilogy though I still think it should have only been 2 parts. I'd say Part 2 would be the best just because a bit more happened overall. Battle of 5 Armies really deals with just the Battle over the mountain so the scope is pretty limited.

I recently re-watched Zoolander for the first time in YEARS.  That movie is pretty funny.

Forrest Gump - one of my favs

Godzilla (2014)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014)

Earth to Echo

I've got a stack (eight, I think) of new movies to watch.  I saw most of them at the theater.

I had my annual watching of It's a Wonderful Life and both Charlie Brown Christmas specials.

A Christmas Story and The Nativity.

The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies.  It was good, but I am glad the story is over....seemed to drag a little too long with three really long films.

That's why I didn't see any of these.  I thought that three films for one book was WAY too much.  I just lost interest.

The Book Thief
& Expendables 3

Since I finally got my 47" 3DTV I have finally started watching some of my 3D Blu-ray's.

Creature from the Black Lagoon
Prometheus
John Carter
Predator

others I have of 3D that I will be watching soon enough...

Godzilla (2014)
Jurassic Park
Pacific Rim
Tron : Legacy
Top Gun
Cirque Du Soliel : World's Away
The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey Extended Edition
The Hobbit : The Desolation of Smaug
Captain America : The First Avenger
Captain America : The Winter Soldier

300: Rise Of An Empire
Don't Blink
Perfect Sisters

I don't recommend any of them.
