I forgot the name of it, but the new one Tom Cruise is in. The one about the plot to assassinate Hitler.

Valkyrie, right? Hmmm . . .I just loathe Tom Cruise, though. (I am looking for suggestions for an upcoming outing with friends.)

I want to see The Changeling, Seven Pounds, and the Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

ETA: My dad and I went to see Australia on Black Friday (it's kindof our tradition that we start Christmas planning, then go to see a movie). It was pretty good BUT my butt was asleep because it was almost 3 hours long.

I thought this thread dealt with Holiday-themed movies.. Well anyway, Four Christmases was a funny flick, even if the end was predictable.

This Holiday Season, I plan on watching...
Milk, Australia, Doubt, Wendy and Lucy, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Cadillac Records, Tale of Despereaux, Seven Pounds, Spirit, Valkyrie, Revolutionary Road, Frost/Nixon, Synecdoche, NY, Rachel Getting Married

That should give me a jump on the Award Season...

Daemon, The Half Blood Prince does not come out until July

Being the history teacher I am, I want to see Valkyrie!!!! Even though I also loathe Tom Cruise....

I also want to see Australia, but have not had a chance.....The rest of the movies do nothing for me except...

The Day the Earth Stood Still!!!

Right, Valkyrie. And I absolutely loathe Tom Cruise, too - in my book, he has no right to play Claus Von Stauffenberg.

[hijack]
I read a very interesting book "Berlin Diaries 1940-45" several years ago, and was working on a screenplay for it when I discovered that someone already had in 2001. The actress playing the lead (Marie Vassiltchikov) was none other than Nicole Kidman! Think Tom Cruise got the idea from there? I wish the studio would release Berlin Diaries 1940-45, even though I do feel scooped. The book is considered the only real written eyewitness account to Berlin during WWII.
[/hijack]

I'd also like to see: Cadillac Records, Tale of Despereaux, Revolutionary Road, Frost/Nixon, and Four Christmases.

Yeah, did you mean holiday like Christmas movies? We always watch It's a Wonderful Life, Christmas Vacation, and Christmas Story.

At the last place I worked, we had a white board in the bathroom where people would write The Question of the Day. And one time around the holiday season someone asked, "What's your favorite untraditional or non-holiday holiday movie?" My response: Die Hard!
