Favorite movie?

[Eskarina]

The story takes place in eighth century Ireland and it follows a young boy named Brendan. The animation style is really wonderful because it tries to mimic the artwork of the carpet pages in the real book It also includes some super cool Celtic mythology. It's become a classic in the Medieval and Renaissance department at my uni.

There is a real book of Kells, and it was ca 8th century. It might be one of the most beautiful things you ever get to see if you are ever in Ireland.

Last semester I got the opportunity to work with a full size, full color facsimile of it.

And I will shut up and about boring, old, dusty books now. Sorry.

Mmm yes, definitely a good movie.

Pride and Prejudice... any version. I just about die laughing every time Lizzie's mother has screen time. I've known people like her...

[Eskarina]

Yes! I love that story.

Mr. Collins is my favorite. I had an ex-boyfriend just like him. When we went to the same uni he would find out where I hung out and introduce me to whoever he was dating at the time and tell me how happy they were together. It was quite amusing.

Never seen secondhand lions.

Taken. One of the most epic movies ever.

[gwenhyver42]

Secondhand Lions has Michael Caine in it... Michael Caine is awesome. It also has another classic actor, whose name escapes me at the moment.

Still haven't watched Taken. I've seen some pretty funny memes made from it, though.

[Eskarina]

Taken is funny.

Has anyone seen zero dark thirty yet? Any good?

[Dadinator]

Second hand Lions is awesome. Had me cracking up.

Has anyone ever seen Undercover Blues, with Dennis Quaid and Kathleen Turner? Old movie, I know, but I love it.
