One of my all-time favorites is The Usual Suspects with Kevin Spacey. If you like who-done-it type, this one keeps you guessing. I am a HUGE fan of M. Night Shyamalan....The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Village.

I also enjoyed these to name a few:

Spy Game

Enemy of the State

Pay It Forward

Mystic River

Fools Rush In

Meet the Parents

Son-In-Law

I loved the usual suspect. Great film, he was great in it. M.night is a good director. I liked unbreakable, sixth sense and the village. I am slightly interested in his new movie.

What about Forrest Gump? I think that movie was probably the best in every way. It deals with so many issues and so many trials, all wrapped up in a package of simpleness and sincerity!!! Now, where's that DVD?

Man, I am a movie lover - I have seen sooo many and repeat the ones I like over and over...it drives my hubby MAD!!!

BTW, I have a bunch of movies to add to my ever-growning Netflix Queue...thanks bunches!

I think my favorite Kevin Spacy movie ever is American Beauty. sigh. Something about that movie....I tried to watch it the other night when this thread started, and my old VHS copy was all messed up! Grrr!

I just watched a new movie called LolliLove the other night, it was made by the girl who plays Pam on the Office...Jenna something, anyway...it was quite funny. Well, if you like wierd mockumentries.

American beauty was a great film. I saw it in the theater. He truely pulled off that dirty daddy character. The ending was so intense. When you see a movie that starts out as one thing and everything comes together at the end just to throw u a kick like that ending can shake you. Great Film. How about Say Anything? I really loved that film when I was a kid and still do. The scene with the boom box. Wow! It always makes me love John Cusak more than I already do. Does anyone like Irish and British actors? Intermission is a great film. Colin Farrell and Cillian Murphy are both in this film. I have to say, I love Independent films, and am a sucker for a great director.

Everything Kathy473 listed! I could go to the movies with you! I totally LOVE vampire movies. They are my all time fav. Blade is my hero. I really enjoyed Crash. I love Anthony Hopkins, he is one of my favorite actors, I loved him in The Edge. Johnny Depp is just total eye candy so I have to see whatever he does. Sling Blade is another I really like. I actaully really like Billybob Thorton, I think he is a great actor. Bad Santa is one of THE funniest off color movies I think I have ever watched....still cracks me up.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
