Just saw Disney Pixar's UP and i believe they have beaten the stunning Wall-E with this one. Funny, moving, charming and beautiful, this is one of the most wall rounded animated features i have ever seen. Not ashamed to say i cried.

-edit- I decided to pick up Hors de Prix (Priceless) and I agree with you Ruro its was fairly predictable but the dialog and the two main characters made it a enjoyable watch. I recommend it to anybody who hasn't seen it, its a fun little movie. Also I have always seen Audrey as a bit more adorable than anything, but man in this movie she is over the top sexy. Audrey really shines in this, I thought she did a fantastic job and the other guy as well, there is one part in this movie that she really shows how great of a actress she is, you will know it when you come to it. I also picked up A Very Long Engagement, but I only watched half of it last night before going to bed. I am having a bit of trouble following it as well. I am getting confused on some of the names just like you said. We don't see some of the characters very much so its hard to keep up who was who. I might go back to the beginning again to get a better idea before moving on. I have been hearing that quite a bit, no surprise though all of Pixar's movies have been hit's. I am a big fan so I will have to go see it sometime next week I think.

Did I mention it has Will Ferrell it in? Well, I don't really know anything about the land of the lost; so, it might be funny to me. But, yeah, I had the suspicion that it might be a bit too dumb rather than funny. It's a delicate balance I think. If it's geared toward kids it tends to come off a bit to visceral/mindless to be very funny for me. I don't find Sponge Bob entertaining either.

That pretty much describes everything that happened last night. Honesty, you should have seen this 'stash. It was epic.

Ruroshen you sent me on a Audrey Tautou craze lol (thanks for that by the way its been most enjoyable), after finishing Hors de Prix (Priceless) and Un long dimanche de fiançailles (A Very Long Engagement); I went and got A la folie, pas du tout (He loves me, He loves me not) and Dirty Pretty Things. Here are some some thoughts of mine on the films I haven't talked about yet, not really a review just some thoughts.
A Very Long Engagement: A film about the search for a young lady's lover who went missing during the war. Like Ruroshen said the film has a lot of characters and its a bit hard to follow sometimes, but a little after the middle of A Very Long Engagement I seemed to get who was who a bit better. Things started to make more sense and overall it was very enjoyable and Audrey is incredible in it. the style of the film is kinda unique too going from past to present worked well to build suspense and emotional attachment to the characters. Nearing the end of the film it really had me, what a great film. Probably only the second movie that almost made me cry, key word almost, the other if you are interested was I Am Sam, also a almost, nothing as of yet has made me cry, any suggestions lol? He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not: I agree a lot with what you said Ruroshen. The first part was enjoyable if pretty predictable, but I still there felt like something was off, and then the second half of the film just totally flipped the script and caught me way off guard. Now while you said you got the hint of Amélie in her character, me not so much as I went in there looking for it, it's very weird, while like you said the similarities are there but the expression is so different, all of it, it really speaks to Audrey's skill as an actress I think. I recommend checking it out if you guys and gals haven't seen it, definitely a interesting film. Dirty Pretty Things: Oh boy, this was a tough one. It's a story about a man who illegally lives in London and tries to make money the best he can and help out himself and a friend he lives with. You quickly find out how hard that can be for not only himself but other illegal residents, its a deeply moving film. Audrey Tautou and Chiwetel Ejiofor (main male role) and all the other actors in this film do a phenomenal job. Its not a easy film though, its a very rough look at life and a realistic one (don't hold me to that, not sure if these event's really happen but the film makes it really believable). I would recommend seeing it because it is such a touching film and done really well but watch it before bed or something. When the last half of the film was coming I just had my hands on my head, shaking it, and repeating, "no, no, no, why, no." Not because its overly grotesque or anything just because I felt so helpless, I cant reach in and help and it sucks. It's rough, I'm telling you, when the film was over I just sat in silence and I didn't want to do anything, but luckily it was late so I just went to bed. Check it out really, it's good, just know this isn't a happy film, no Amélie to be found here.

Heh, that's funny Chommpers...still on my own Audrey Tautou kick, I literally just bought Dirty, Pretty Things on Friday, along with another film of hers, Ensemble, C'est Tout (English title: Hunting and Gathering). Haven't watched either yet, though. Thanks for the warning about DPT.
Also borrowed my brother's copy of The DaVinci Code, but haven't gotten around to rewatching it yet. This week, though, probably.
