Not-so-popular movies you've seen recently that you surprisingly liked...

I have a habit of scrolling through Encore (free movie channel on TWC) about once a week and DVRing movies that look interesting or that I haven't seen in the past...

Every now and then I'll find a good one that I liked more than I expected I would.

Blindness, a story about life after some sort of disease/event causes a lot of people to go blind, is a pretty good flick...

Miracle at St. Anna is a WW2 movie by Spike Lee about a "supernatural" event that happens to a few black soldiers... This has some pretty good humor in it, even though it tries to convey a spiritual meaning ultimately...

I finally watched Rob Roy in its entirety, and overall, it was a good movie too...

Anyone else seen any surprisingly good movies lately?

There's this little-known french indie flick that I saw up in north charlotte this weekend. Solid acting, good character development, conflicting love interests. It's about a man who puts up a tough exterior and acts like a jerk, but really has a heart of gold and is a hero. It's called Homme de Fer, Le Deuxième, or roughly translated into english, Iron Man 2.

Miracle at St. Anna is absolute garbage. One of the most boring and pointless films ever made.

haha I can see why you'd say that... as a lot of it was boring and pointless... kind of a long movie to tell such a simple story...

I just liked the "Chocolate giant" jokes and the nice rack on that one chick...

...a nice rack often makes up for other bad parts in a movie...

IFC has a lot of obscure movies. 13 Tzameti was on there, it's pretty good. A Russian movie about 13 guys that are forced to/get paid to play a game of Russian Roulette-they each get one bullet, spin the chamber, and stand in a circle pointing at the back of the head in front of them.

Recently watched and enjoyed

Invention of Lying

Paperheart

Up in the Air

The Invention of Lying had soooo much promise, but he just made it into a run of the mill romantic comedy.

Up in the Air made me have a mancrush on George Clooney.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
