I am probably way behind the curve on this, but I recently read an article in an old Entertainment Weekly I brought to Costa Rica the last time I visited my folks' house. In it there was an article called "The 50 Best Movies You've Never Seen." Its criteria were that the movies had to be made since 1991 and somehow under-viewed or under-appreciated. You can see the article here, but this list on IMDB is much more user-friendly. Read more [...] Entertainment, Weakly

Bill Hicks was a comedian from Texas who rose to at prominence in the 80s. He was "controversial," in that he talked a lot about politics, society, and drugs. He unleashed his wrath on the first two, and as for drugs, he was a major opponent of the hypocrisy surrounding drugs. Although his comedy could be angry, bitter, and often vulgar, he still strangely seemed to come at the whole thing from a place of love and compassion (hence the book's title). His comedy seemed to reflect an exasperation at the decline of society, but he seemed to genuinely want to change things for the better. 
If you've not seen JCS, I can heartily recommend it. It's excellent for many reasons: the songs, the acting, the singing, the setting, the nostalgic value, and the ability to make the viewer think. It's my favorite musical, and it's also on my list of top 20 movies in general. I've talked about it with ministers, Germans, devout church-goers, lapsed Catholics, non-believers, and even a drunk student in Madrid (who burst Jesus' part from "What's the Buzz"). The point is, if you're thinking, "But I'm not religious, so I'm not really interested," then you should still give it a chance. 
So I’m usually gushing about the movies I review. I like most movies; there are only a few I hate with an undying passion, and some that were completely forgettable. I thought, for a change, I’d cast aspersions on a few I saw recently. Two of them are OK (I guess, nothing special) but the last one is a real disappointment considering the stellar cast. I don’t know if I’m doing myself any favors telling you not to see a movie except to go out and see that movie to prove me wrong. But whatever 
My family and I moved from Eau Claire, Wisconsin to Fort Collins, Colorado in 1984. I can remember my mom taking me to rent movies at this place that also rented out furniture and electronics (if you know where Cafe Mexicali is, it was in that business strip). I would look at the giant (27 inches!) Zenith television sets with wood paneling and dream of having one in my bedroom. In the meantime, however, I would only seem to rent one or two of the following (and watch them about 5 times before returning 
Netflix charges $8 per month for streaming movies/tv-shows. I subscribe. It's now the 23rd of March and I've only watched one movie, Warlock (1959). It was awesome! Good thing that $8 goes toward unlimited Dora the Explorer and Diego episodes or I'd cancel...
Warlock is the name of the town. It's troubled by a gang of bad guys (redundant?). Warlock employs Henry Fonda as their marshal for protection. He's got a partner, Anthony Quinn. Anthony Quinn's got some secrets, enough
