Hi. I have a thing for the old type movies (not B&W though) because they had so much style. When I watch the new movies, I can only watch them
once and forget about it but the old movies from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's, I just can watch it ovver and over again. What about you? Do you
feel the same way as me? What's your take on all of this?

I recently saw T2 on tv the other night. I remember I used to like that
movie. Now it just seemed lame. Mostly it was Arnold's performance that I found lacking. But who ever said he had any acting ability?

only movie i can watch over and over again is fight club.

Tron for me (first one), seen it a few hundred times since the first time my mom took me to see it in the theater.

Star Trek: The Wrath of Kahn is still a winner for me. Aliens too.
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is still awesome.

I think he fits that role fairly well, so overall I like T2. In fact, it's probably one of my favorite action movies of all time.

I liked the Sarah Connor Chronicles. In addition to its plot points, I think it was a more believable continuation of the Terminator story than Terminator 3 & Terminator 4.

Yeah, I'm disappointed that it was canceled. I thought the ending was a
little odd too, and it seemed like a big cliffhanger that was never finished.

I don't watch as much TV as I used to.. I don't think I've heard of most of those. :P I watched a few episodes of Firefly and didn't really get into it.. I've heard a lot of people really liked it though. I'm not sure its cancellation was due to Summer Glau - She seemed to have only a minor part in that show.
