I've seen all of these in the past few months:
"My Dinner with Andre" was a very interesting movie to me. Not for everyone, though... low budget..
"Welcome to the Dollhouse" a little dark but very neat...
"Happiness" just awesome.
"The Life Aquatic" I've seen this too many times now.. but you need to see it twice to appreciate.. same is true for most Wes Anderson movies.
"The Squid and the Whale" Very different and interesting.
"Mulholland Drive" I'm not sure what to say here.. It was basically like living in someone else's dream.
"Religulous" Bill Maher.. being fairly unbiased in my opinion... awesome flick.
"Idiocracy" hilarious and accurately prophetic.
"To Live and Die in LA" cheezy but good
"The Good the Bad and The Ugly" Really good everything... acting, cinematography, etc.
Most of these are 'not for everyone'... I like Terminator, True Lies, Die Hard, Bond flicks, and other 'normal' movies too.
But I've got a friend with a big video catalog that's been helping me open my eyes to really good movie making.
Also, I've been watching "Dexter" the Showtime TV series with my wife on DVD.. that's been fun to watch.. I got a little tired of it at times but the season finale of last season was really good.
So the HT room has been getting some use..
