I'm about to see....

This thread is meant to be a little brother of the "I've just seen..." thread
It's for films you're thinking of watching but aren't sure about.
And your fellow BCGers can encourage you or put you off wasting your time.

The ones I've got lined up are

Sideways
Napoleon Dynamite
Bewitched (I've watched a bit & feel I know the answer to this one already)
The Invention of Lying

The Invention of Lying

The best of your list, I enjoyed it a lot.

I found Napoleon Dynamite really boring. And the main character massively unlikeable.

Agreed.

Sideways is well-acted but very over-rated.

Agreed. If you want to see something funny, about wine, watch that Oz & James thingy.

There was that bit when they crashed into a tree. I can't really remember what else happened.

Is there a case for the "I'm about to see" thread avoiding spoilers? ;)

SPOILER ALERT

It also had that excrutiating scene of dialogue where they are describing wine but really, hey, this is clever, they're describing their, like, feelings and stuff.

Sounds f*ckin' riveting.

Imagine it wasn't. Then you're nearly there.

On balance, I think I'll stick to Dirty Harry films !

:)

I'm about to see a notification that this thread is closed.

Only joking.

I'm about to see that event that I foresaw this time last year. I can't really remember what it was, but I have the feeling there was something important I was meant to...

*gets shot in the back by future self*

To Be Continued...

I wanna see that movie!
The Leevil Dead

He's alive really, it's a hell of a futuristic time travelling Zombie thriller

Sideways

Good. Standard Alexander Payne territory.

Napoleon Dynamite

Genius IMO. But I can understand why it simply isn't for some.

See Tim
If you hadn't arrived I may have dismissed them out of hand.
