Ten Movies I Would Like to See

May 20th, 2008 . by Joyce

Well, here I am talking about movies, when I just said yesterday that I would rather read a good book than watch a good movie (or rather it was reread a good book vs. watch a movie again). Well, I want to play along with Ten on Tuesday, and I might watch some of these once. :)

1. Iron Man – My girls loved this one, so I would like to see it as well.
2. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – My kids have watched all the prior Indiana Jones films (more than once), so this one is one we definitely plan to see.
3. Kung Fu Panda – Animation and Kung Fu sounds like a good combo to me.
4. Get Smart – I really enjoyed The Man Who Knew Too Little with Bill Murray. Maxwell Smart is THAT kind of spy.
5. Nim’s Island – My children have already seen this movie as well, and say that I would LOVE it. Hmmm . . . It’s probably too tame for the man of the family, but maybe on date night?
6. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian – Reports from friends have been enthusiastic on this one as well.
7. The Incredible Hulk – If I end up being the driver, I’ll see this one, since my kiddos really enjoy the superhero movies. What’s not to love about the Hulk, anyhow?
8. Wall*E – Of course I want to see an animated Walt Disney film!
9. Journey to the Center of the Earth – I do enjoy the fantasy genre, plus read the book as a kid.
10. National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets – We all enjoyed the first film so much, so I’d like to see this on DVD (Which brings me to a dilemma: our DVD player is just about worn out. My 12-year old son tells me that Blue Ray is the way things are going to be from now on. What type of player do you recommend?)

    We share two in common. Your numbers 5 and 6. But my oldest asked this morning to see Kung Fu Panda, so I might need to rethink my list.

    Just checking out your list… Looks like we have a couple in common… But you reminded me of Wall-E, thanks. I’ll have to add another 10 to the bottom of my list by the time I get done checking out some of the other ToT-ers. ;)

    I’ve heard of Blue Ray, but, ACK, will DVDs be the new VHS of the future? I have such a nice collection of DVDs! If Blue Ray is the new wave of the future, what about computers? Will they be equipped to play DVDs? As you can see, I’m just not ready for this change AGAIN!!

    Can you play DVDs on a Blue Ray player?

    I’d forgotten about Nim’s Island….I really want to see that one!

    We’ve got some overlap in our lists. I saw Iron Man last weekend, and it’s awesome! Thanks for stopping by my blog today.

    Good list! I want to see Kung Fu Panda too–Darren really doesn’t like Jack Black though, so I’ll have to see it by myself. ;)
