    Water for Elephants was a great book! Got the movie for Chistmas and, though good, they have to change some of the things to fit into a time space. If you are interested read the book first,.

    Loved book and movie of Water for Elephants. Liked the first Sherlock but not the second one. Romantic movie favorite "The Way We Were". Another favorite is "Legends of the Fall". Someone mentioned "The Shawshank Redemption" - liked that, too. There are so many good movies ... and so many bad ones, Oh, and "Doctor Zhivago" - wow! Just fun was "Butch Cassidy and the Sun Dance Kid". My sister and I were talking about that last week and I want to rent it to watch again. I could go on and on.

    The Help movie was okay, the book so much better. I'm anxious to see the Stephanie Plum movie too.

    I enjoyed the Stephanie Plum books, but haven't seen the movie yet. I saw and read "The Help." and would see and read it again. I loaned the book out. I read and saw "The House of Sand and Fog, and enjoyed it, even though it was sad. Not everyone would like it. My husband wasn't interested. We went to see the new Sherlock Holmes movie, and I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. Enjoyed Robert Downey, Jr. though!

    I can't wait to see "Hugo". I'm a puppeteer and stuff like that inspires me. My favorite movie so far has been "Laborinth staring David Bowe ( the puppetry was very inventive). I've watched it 10 or more times over the last 15 years. I'm glad I now have it on DVD after awhile vcr tapes ware out
