Friday Night Movie Night Feb. 25, 2010

Okay, well I’m a little disappointed in the lack of good movies coming out in the theaters lately. It seems like all the good shows get lumped together and then everything that sucks fills in all the gaps. There is some hope in Netflix and Redbox movies, but honestly, avoid the theaters and save your money.

    Going to the Theater:

If you want to get out and actually spend money in our current economy, here are the top two movies that everyone should enjoy if you haven’t seen them already (click title to see trailer).

First Choice: Sherlock Holmes

Close Second: Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Avatar is off the list only because you should have seen it already. Sherlock Holmes is arguably one of the better Robert Downey Jr. Movies. Percy Jackson and the really long title is a great show for kids and adults alike.

    Redbox:

If you’re too lazy and don’t feel like going to the theater, then here are our two suggestions for you to pick up at your local unnamed movie-disposal box that may or may not be the color red.

First Choice: Anchorman

Close Second: Terminator Salvation

Anchorman can get a little crude at parts, but it’s a very funny movie. I find myself quoting several lines from the movie pretty regularly. Terminator is a great show for any kind of an action buff. The movie gives guys what they want in a movie without making it unbearable for women to watch too.

Netflix:

If you can’t even make it to a local rental place or redbox, but have streaming Netflix at home via computer or xbox, then here are a couple of winners for your night.

First Choice: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Close Second: Air Force One

I have one word for Eternal Sunshine and the Spotless Mind: Trippy. Trippy, but good. Air Force One is a classic and anyone and everyone who likes Harrison Ford and any of his movies will love this one.

Have a great weekend and don’t do anything stupid, like watch the Never Ending Story upside down while eating Skittles.

Let us know in the comments section if you plan on or did watch any of these films. Also, any ideas for weekend movie/tv activities are welcome as well.

Friday Night Movie Night, Febuary 4, 2010

Tomorrow is the day you have been looking forward to since Monday morning.  Make sure that you spend your weekend wisely and don’t watch any crappy movies (like Surrogates …).  ThatShowSucks is here to help you understand what is worth your time and your money this upcoming weekend.

    Going to the Theater:

If you want to get out and actually spend money in our current economy here are the top two movies that everyone should see sooner or later (click title to see trailer).

First Choice: Avatar

Close Second: When in Rome

I know that Avatar has been on the list for the past three weeks, but come on, it’s Avatar.  When in Rome took third place in the box office results last week and is a pretty funny show.

Zoolander

    Redbox:

If you are too lazy and don’t feel like going to the theater then here are our two suggestions for you to pick up at your local unnamed movie-disposal box that may or may not be the color red.

First Choice: Zoolander

Close Second: Julie and Julia

Zoolander is one of my personal favorites as far as comedy goes.  I got roped into watching the Julie and Julia film and actually liked it, but I’m warning you, you will finish the movie hungry.

Netflix:

If you can’t even make it to a local rental place or redbox, but have streaming Netflix at home via computer or xbox, then here are a couple of winners for your night.

First Choice: Best in Show

Close Second: The Count of Monte Cristo

Best in show is a witty mockumentary about a dog show.  If you ever had respect for people who take their dogs to these dog shows that will disapear by the end of this film.  The Count of Monte Cristo is hands down one of the best action movies to come out in the past 10 years.

Enjoy the weekend and try to forget the fact that once you get home from work Friday that you only have 40 hours of being awake before you’re back in the office again.

Friday Night Movie Night, January 29

So it’s almost the weekend and you might be wondering how you’re going to wind down and relax this weekend. Thatshowsucks.com is here to help you make some movie watching decisions to help your weekend be as enjoyable as possible. We have three categories of movie watchers (going to the theater group, redbox, and netflix) to make sure that no matter where you are you’ll have some great shows to watch.

    Going to the Theater:

If you want to get out and actually spend money in our current economy here are the top two movies that everyone should see sooner or later (click title to see trailer).

First Choice: Avatar

Close Second: Blind Side

Both of these Movies are incredible and if you’ve already seen them, well, go see them again.

Michael Jackson Movie Poster

    Redbox:

If you are too lazy and don’t feel like going to the theater then here are our two suggestions for you to pick up at your local unnamed movie-disposal box that may or may not be the color red.

First Choice: Michael Jackson’s This Is It

Close Second: Angels & Demons

The Michael Jackson movie should be an interesting one if you haven’t taken the time to see it.  Angels & Demons is a great show, which is easily ten times better than Da Vinci Code.

Traitor movie poster

Netflix:

If you can’t even make it to a local rental place or redbox, but have streaming Netflix at home via computer or xbox, then here are a couple of winners for your night.

First Choice: Traitor

Close Second: Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (original version)

I personally got a little freaked out with Jonny Depp version of Willy Wonka, but the original is a good show.  Traitor was a really interesting movie that makes you think a little bit, but be warned, it can be slow at some times.

Well we hope that you have a great weekend and that we’ve helped you decide what movies will make this weekend slightly less boring than usual.
