Have you seen Outlaw Josey Wales yet? That has to be my favorite western of all time. Something Eastwood does a few times in that movie is absolutely hilarious, imitating, and downright unforgettable.
Watched Wanted last night - bloody, mindless entertainment. I've seen worse.
I still love Unforgiven tons. Yes, a bit modern, but I think very highly of it, and Eastwood is amazing in it.
But Outlaw Josey Wales is terrific too. Definitely one of the greats. I also think the fact Josey never really loses the outlaw status, despite winning in the end. I also think it has one of the great endings in all film, where it just kind of ends, with him riding into the sunset, bleeding, near death, and he's still on the run. Just a great movie.
I have to say, it's been a sad sad long time since i've seen the Man With No Name trilogy. I saw the set in Wal-Mart the other day on DVD... i'm gonna grab it next time i'm in there.

I've been avoiding buying DVDs because I figure I'm overdue for buying a Blu-Ray player, but DVDs are so cheap to buy now it would be hard to pass up that set if I saw it at a good price. Love those spaghetti westerns...
Slashfro: I've seen Secret Things - crazy movie. Brisseau is a perv director, but his movies are often controversial beyond the erotica. I like his style. And one of the women in that movie - Blandine Bury - has to be one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen in my life.
Sexy Beast was bizarre too, and you were right about Kingsley. I need to watch it again.
Anybody seen Salt? I was thinking about checking it out.

Saw this last week. Enjoyable popcorn film. One of those go inside and shut off the brain movies. I wish it were a little longer (run time is 100 minutes).
Watched Small Time Crooks last night. Film is ten years old and Woody Allen is just completely out of gas at that point. I'm afraid to watch anything more recent.
I've always wanted to watch Small Time Crooks. Regarding the "recent output":
2001 The Curse of the Jade Scorpion--fun little comedy, kinda underated. Enjoyed it a lot more on second viewing. It doesn't hurt that Charlize Theron is smoking hot in that film. Just don't expect Annie Hall or Bananas. It's a period comedy.
2002 Hollywood Ending, 2003 Anything Else, 2004 Melinda and Melinda, 2009 Whatever Works--haven't seen any of these, so can't comment.
2005-Match Point--I enjoyed this a lot, even if it is an updated version of 1989 Crimes and Misdeameanors.
2006 Scoop--Throwaway comedy with Woody Allen and Scarlett Johansson. Ok film. Probably best to be skipped.
2007-Cassandra's Dream--similiar to Match Point. I'd probably recommend this one to you because it doesn't have Scarlett Johansson.
2008--Vicky Cristina Barcelona--enjoyed this one a lot. Rebecca Hall and Penelope Cruz give good performances. There is a voiceover narration that could be a little annoying. Probably the closest to his classic relationship films.

Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
Hurt Locker. Great movie. Maybe not Oscar worthy, but what was last year?! As good as Blacck Hawk Down or Platoon in my book. I guess I wish it had more characters though, it only focused on 3. Made it different though in those regards.
Saw Hot Tub TIme Machine. It had it's moments. I thought it could have been better but not bad. Worth putting on a Netflix queue.
On a side note I joined Netflix. Love it, only got 2 movies so far but its def worthy.
