Frozen was great! Not my favorite movie, but tied with Bolt for my favorite animated film. In my view, Disney broke the mold of most children's movies in so many new and interesting ways that it created the hype the media talks about. It was refreshing, and I admire that. Plus, the message is very good. :)

(just found this thread) My problem was that none of my friends had read the book yet. :P
The book has been a favorite of mine for years, but I don't hate the movie. On the contrary, it's one of my new favorites! I think they did a great job translating it into a movie - and the enlarged role of the Chief Elder made for an interesting twist (that wasn't in the book).

I like Facing the Giants, Courageous, Fireproof, Faith Like Potatoes, God's Not Dead, and Frozen (well, not really). I haven't watched Mom's night out yet (I don't have it, and can't get it either :() I'm going to watch Flywheel next time we watch a movie…

I love Bolt!!!

Anybody ever watched _The Boy in the Striped Pajamas_?
Yes! It was the first movie I've ever seen that actually had a sad ending.

Frozen was the most epic in theaters. Watching at home is great but just not nearly as awesome. lol After the first time I saw Frozen I literally probably watched the 'Let it Go' sequence on YouTube 50 times. xD yeeeaaah… needless to say I'm a little sick of it kinda like most everyone else is now. xD

Wow! Just saw Equilibrium ….. GREAT movie!
And started counting how Remember copied every detail of Equilibrium … and I ran out of computer space… :(
Anyway! Definitely recommend Equilibrium ! (and I do not recommend remember!)

You like sad endings?

Oh Noah… xP Why do you still watch beginning, independent, low budget films? :P Is Equilibrium a Christian based movie?

You like sad endings?
No, not at all. I was just saying that it was the first and only movie I've ever seen that had one. That movie was really sad!

Ohh, okay! The only movie I can think of at the moment that I've seen that had a really sad ending is Joel's Journey. And it's a true story. cries

Because I'm a beginning, independent, low budget filmmaker.
No its Orwellian, and its conservative, and a great parable for the end times and the antichrist, but its not overtly christian.

there are some really good movies that are sad/epic…The Punisher, Saving Private Ryan, Braveheart, Escape from Sobibor, (more but I can't think of them..) but these are also extremely epic.

I've heard of Saving Private Ryan. Dad said the message they try to get across in that movie is terrible.

Remember is a complete cop off of Equilibrium, a shameless plagiarism that is absolutely disgusting. Watch them both in a row, and you'll see! Not only is equilibrium a great movie, but you'll enjoy spotting the similarities between the movies,

If it's the same Remember that I'm thinking of…well, then you have. Remember at the film festival?

Much better. Except that quoting is really messing things up. WHICH IS WHY I DON'T LIKE QUOTING!!

Divergent sucked. :P
i don't think so.
Is that the only one you've seen?
Don't judge the rest of the list by that. I probably would put that at the bottom of the list. Definitely watch the Takens…and Indys…and Sherlocks…EVERYTHING!

So fix the other ones!
Hiruko Kagetane
1) The movie was too rushed.
2) Eric didn't have enough piercings.
3) You didn't grow to care about any of the characters.
4) The deviations from the book were unnecessary.
5) We had deaths rapid-fire in the final act of the movie, and due to #3 up there, we didn't care about any of them.
6) Tris looks like Natalie Portman.
7) Don't get me started on how fake the guns looked. I mean, seriously!
8) Tris mood-swings from meek girl to sassy Divergent in the first act of the movie.
9) Soo…everyone was cutting themselves and dripping blood into the bowls, but when Tris steps up, there's no sign of blood anywhere?
His Servant

Did as you asked, Abi. xD

I haven't read the books… :(
7) so agree…

Just got back from three days of great movies at the first annual CWVFF! Loved it! Don't miss _The War Within_ coming out later this year - it is amazing!!
The War Within is out!! www.thewarwithinmovie.com

GREAT movie! I wish they would put it in theaters… :(

Watched Beyond the Mask last night. :D
And found out that War Room is due in theaters August 28th. Looking forward to that! I might have to miss a couple hours of BB study for that. xP

I saw Beyond the Mask a few weeks ago! EVERYONE SHOULD SEE IT! ^just have the parents preview it first cause there are a few scary things younger kids (like me) wouldn't want to see^
Rachel the Alaskan
Beyond The Mask is definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen. I'm serious. We got it last Sunday; it is SO good! Our whole family really, really, really liked it.

I saw it twice a few months ago. It is one of the best Christian movies I have ever seen. I highly recommend it.
Dance4Him
Anyone have any movies to recommend?
Rachel the Alaskan
Beyond the Mask. XD Welllll…. you've probably seen Courageous and those ones…Amazing Grace is really good. It's about William Wilberfource (is that how you spell it??) and his fight in England against the slave trading industry.
The War Within is a really good one, too. It's about a couple who were having a hard time in their relationship. In the movie it goes inside him and shows the confilcting parts of his mind (Heart, Memory, Will, Emotion, Conscience, and someone else) interacting and making the decisions that made him act. It's really well done in every way.
Polycarp is one I got from our local BB this year. It's about the early Christians and their persecution. I think it was released fairly recently.
(Has anyone else seen Sybil Ludington? Because I'd like to hear your opinions on it.)
That's what I can think of off of the top of my head. :)
Emily H
Mind!! xP
Oh, and I think it's just Wilberforce, but I could be wrong.
