Looking for something new to watch...

[poppy62]

We do enjoy a good film, whether it's mystery, adventure or it's drama with a good story or a true story, sci-fi (Clive's favorite) or family/Disney for me
Looking for inspiration now as we have watched most of our favorites a few times and are looking for some new films to watch.
All recommendations welcome.
Old films, new films, anything at all

Barbie..we watch a lot more since als, we like tv series, I haven't seen all of Lost, Clive's been hooked on Stargate lately.
Brian, Clive's a Trekkie fan I do like Patrick Stewart tho' so I don't mind some. He is well into sci-fi/fantasy. Some good ones there that are on our fave list too, esp Ladyhawke and Apollo 13.
Jen, I love Doc Martin, did you ever see William and Mary? Another tv series with Martin Clunes and a funeral firm.
Cgars, we saw the dolphin film this week too, amazing
Kim, I like Mrs Doubtfire and Clive likes E.T.

Thanks for stopping by...there's a few titles there I'm going to look up...
He has watched all the James Bonds this week..

Big Fish has a really good story. I also like Harvey with James Stewart. What Dreams may Come is also fantastic. Good Morning, Vietnam.
Mermaids with Cher. The Mask with Cher. Shawshank Redemtion, Green Mile.

Casper. The first one. I loved that movie. The green mile was good. Almost anything with Tom Hanks. The old Bbc Sherlock Holmes. Its like 4 OR 5 years old I think.

I'm into Netflix, as it's cheap.

Numbers
Charmed
Heroes
ER
Supernatural
Stargate (favorite show other than Charmed)
Hawaii 5-O

Favorite Movie for holidays: It's a Womderful Life. My daughter bought it for me last year as I was so upset when we didn't have Tv at Christmas to watch it. It's my Happy Go-to movie.

I haven't seen anything new in ages, can't help you there...

I'm boycotting networks rigjt now, as the cancelled every single show from last season I liked. Every single new one. The secret circle. Missing. Alcatraz. Awake, A gifted man. I loved all of them.

But, we don't have tv anymore so guess my boycott won't bother them, lol.
