    Movie Shout Out Break....Or is it?

    We're taking a break from the official Movie Shout Out this week to prepare for our first Movie Watch-Along (THE HURT LOCKER - tonight, Saturday, 7PM PST) and we hope that you all can particpate either on Google Wave or Twitter.

    But considering what is going on this weekend, we thought we'd throw out a question just for fun (and for those who cannot join us for the Watch-Along). 

    Who is going to win in your favorite category at the Oscars this year?

    Feel free to drop us a line by commenting here, sending us an @ reply on Twitter or checking out our Facebook fan page.

    We're suckers for Oscar stuff...

    Movie Shout Outs - What Movie DID you miss? - Responses

    Happy Sunday! It's Movie Shout Out Response Time!

    Yesterday's question was:

    Which of the 42 films that we have covered HAD you missed?

    We were really happy to see that many of you were familar with some of these amazing flicks.  Check out your responses below:

    I guess you mean which movies we've seen because of the show? If so ... Run Lola Run, Word Wars, REC, and The Omen is in my netflix queue right now.

    I missed Run Lola Run, and STILL HAVEN'T SEEN IT!!! What kind of person am I?!?
    @JimmyDelicious via Twitter

    Well that would be a lot, but there are a few I haven't even heard of; my dinner with melvin, the station agent and the informants, among others.BTW a lot of your movies have been on my "list".
    Mudassir C via Facebook

    i must say I haven't seen Pontypool, sounded to Welsh for me ;-).  I get enough people calling me Welsh because of my name.
    @Nebuchanezer via Twitter

    Of the 42, I had seen only 4 before you guys covered them. Of the ones I hadn't seen before you guys covered them, my favorites were probably The Fall, The five obstructions and Primer.
    Miek M via Facebook

    3,8,10,13,14-19,20,23,24,27,32-35,39,42 - So quite a a few
    @ealcantara via Twitter

    Considering how many great episodes you have done, let me list the ones I have seen before you mentioned them:
    'Night of the Living Dead',
    'Primer',
    'The Imposters',
    'The Omen', ... See More
    'The Man Who Would Be King',
    'Dutch',
    'Better off dead',
    Noises Off,
    Run Lola
    Moon
    Much shorter list than would be if I were to list those I haven't seen before you guys. :)
    Jeff E via Facebook

    i actually missed 38 out of the 42 ^.^
    @Wrinkliez via Twitter

    "Primer" is one of my favorite Indie movies of all time. Surprising how many people haven't seen. Made on an exrtemely small budget, with no CGI, the illusion of time travel is made believable and plausible. Thanks, guys, for recognizing this little film. All these other ones being mentioned, I have seen. Ta. -BB
    Belinda B via Facebook

    Since there are probably more movies I hadn't seen than I have, I'll just list the ones I had seen before I found this website.
    The Fall, Brick, Primer, Fido, Princess Mononoke, Let the Right One in, In Bruges, King of Kong, Lola Rennt, Equilibrium and Moon. So I had seen 11 out of the 42 previously.
    John I.G. via MYMHM Comment

    I think the number of movies that I had seen before covered by MYMHM is about ten. Let's see: Five Obstructions, Run Lola, Noises Off, Man for All Season, Igby, Station Agent, In Bruges, Man Bites Dog, Better Luck Tomorrow, Brick. Ten. Exactly ten.
    But, oh my! I can't thank the show enough for bringing me 'A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints' and 'The Fall.' Those were the two best movies I saw last year by a mile.
    Andrew T via Facebook

    We love bringing you films you haven't seen, but we are thrilled to hear about the ones you've caught.  These films all deserve the attention.  Now- if you need an idea for a good Sunday flick, we have a few suggestions. ;)

    Movie Shout Outs - Best Anagram from a Movie Title?

    It's Outhouse Vomits Response Time!...Woops, I mean Movie Shout Outs Response Time.

     

    What is the best anagram you can come up with from a Movie title?

    Your responses were hilarious!  Check them out below:

    Zombieland -> Z-Mob Denial?
    This is really difficult.

    John I.G. via MYMHM comment
    Star Wars - Rat Warts. 82 Days Later! ;-)82 Weeks Later...i am brilliant at this!ok, 21 angry men ;-)
    @Nebuchanezer via Twitter

    Difficult one. I found http://wordsmith.org/anagram/ quite helpful.
    The best one I could find was:
    Inglorious basterds -- A Builder's Groin Toss...which reminded me of the under appreciated sitcom Duckman.
    Miek M via Facebook

    Wow... Start off with title: Let the Right One In
    Then came up with a silly one, but then started from that. ended up with: Thirteenth Legion
    Jeff//Dangershoes via MYMHM comment

    The sequel to ALIENS = SALINE. Run with it Mr. Zombie. Oops, I'd better not give him any ideas.
    @pjowens75

    Anytime I think of anagrams i think of the Simpsons episode where Lisa is intimidated by the new smarter girl. "Alec Guinness, Genuine Class."
    Michael F via Facebook

    2001: A Space Odyssey / 2001: Easy Spacy Dose.
    @andrewski via Twitter

    I tried a few but my favorite is Leaving Las Vegas -- Vaginal Saves Legs. I think there's a good lesson learned with this one.
    Tahleen "Dutch" from MYMHM

    I have to admit that I also used Wordsmith.org.  I'm not great at Anagrams.  My favorite was for Pulp Fiction: Licit Fun Pop.  I pronounce it "Lick it Fun Pop." :) Made me giggle.
    Marie from MYMHM

     So let's face it. I'm just not that clever when it comes to word play. When Marie and Dutch came up with this week's question, I kinda facepalmed a lil bit because I've always SUCKED at word jumbles. So instead of subjecting you to my lame attempts at movie title anagrams, I'm just going to share some of my fave finds.

    'The Truman Show' = The Worst Human
    'Solaris' = Air Loss
    'Scream' = Scar Me
    and most appropriately:
    'Striptease' = A Tits Spree

    And as a proud of me moment (with a little help from Wordsmith.org):
    'Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure' = Debacle Devil & Tunneller's Text
    (Even using the apostrophe and ampersand!)

    Movie Shout Outs - What movie featuring the Moon do YOU want to be in?

    Happy Valentine's Day from all of us at MYMHM! 

    It's also Sunday, so that means it's Movie Shout Out Response time!

    Yesterday's question was:

     

    In what movie that features the Moon would YOU most want to be a character?

    Admittedly, this was an odd question, but - hey, we were curious and as usual you guys gave us some really fun responses.  Check them out below:

    2001 A Space Odyssey
    Bob B via Facebook

    whatever character has the sexiest space suit :)
    @thescreamstress via Twitter

    Hmmm, haven't really watched many movies featuring the moon. I guess, Futurama (2007)? Did one of their movies feature the moon or was that in the tv series?
    John I. G. via MYMHM comment

    My first thought was Stephen King's The Stand (1994) but then I thought "nahhhhh".
    Lyle L via Facebook

    Moonraker (2007) i reckon. some kinda sidekick to jaws. am halfway thru the Moon epi. loving it.
    @here_comes_B via Twitter

    Well, One would say American Werewolf in Paris (1997) ( I <3 Julie Delpy), but as cheesy as this sounds Superman 2 (1980) (Zod, Ursa & Non rocked)
    @DangerShoes via Twitter

    The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) and work with the great Terry Gilliam.
    @ChristopherE1 via twitter

    i'd want to be in A Grand Day Out (1989), just think of all that cheese mmmmmm!

    @Nebuchanezer via Twitter

    I will have to go with the first Superman (1978).  Gotta love the superheros!
    Marie from MYMHM

    Apollo 13 (1995)...but I'd probably want to stay on earth.

    Movie Shout Outs - Favorite Dialogue Featured in a Film? - Responses

    It's Sunday (Is there a game or something on today??)

    It's also - Movie Shout Out Response Time!  Yesterday's question was:

     

    What is your favorite dialogue featured in a film?

    We loved your responses.  Most of them made us want to go back and re-watch the films.  Check them out below:

    Brick (2005) would be at the top for most original and interesting dialogue, but Tarantino has good dialogue in almost all of his movies as well.
    John I. G. via MYMHM comment

    Sex, Lies, and Videotape (1989) and Reservoir Dogs (1992). Both are good examples are great dialogue, for me.
    Belinda B via Facebook

    Not that it's probably as prominent, but I'd say The Big Lebowski's (1998) dialogue is pretty fantastic.
    @Andrewski via Twitter

    Brick (2005) has a whole handful of my favorite dialogs, one being between Brendan & Principal, and the dialog between Brendan & Laura, specifically at the end scene where we don't know what she whispered to him.
    hidama via MYMHM comment

    Many! Top ones:
    "Things you own, end up owning you" - Fight Club (1999)
    "I'll be back.." - T2 (1991) [I say this all the time :P]
    "Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies." - The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
    Rest are all from Hindi Movies :)
    Shivam S via Facebook

    Haven't seen Melvin yet, cant quite discern what kind of dialogue it is but Brick (2005) & Juno (2007) come to mind with their stylized jargon.
    @shimoroka via Twitter

    I’m going with Pulp Fiction (1994).  “Check out the big brain on Brad.”
    Tony B via email

    I think I have to go with the classic here, "the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill o' beans in this crazy world..." Casablanca (1942).  And not JUST to poke more fun at you for not having seen it, there are some fantastic moments in Phantom of the Paradise (1974):
    "I know drug-real from real-real! Can't you feel the karma in your own house? Bad, sport. Real bad."
    Heather H via Facebook

     "Honey, I never drive faster than I can see and besides... it's all in the reflexes."
    @ashman01 via Twitter

    Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)
    Kristin B via Facebook

    If we're talking Tarantino here how can one not mention True romance (1993)? And almost every Kevin Smith film, even the bad ones have exceptional dialogue driven scenes. The Death Star conversation in Clerks (1994) still entertains me every time and Chasing Amy (1997) is pretty much one great dialogue scene after another.
    Definitely Toothpicks via Facebook

    One of my faves from last year was 500 Days of Summer (2009). Very "dialoguey" and different. Also, Watchmen (2009) was great for that too (boyfriend said, less talking, more action) but I enjoyed the banter though most of it would have had to do with the source material I assume. Another one of my fave movies is Shaun of the Dead (2004), for the clever dialogue though it isn't as wordsy as some. :) Chasing Amy (1997) and pretty much all of the above I'd have to agree with too.
    Jenni K via Facebook

    I've gotta vote for an oldie...What's Up Doc? (1972) While the acting may not be Oscar-worthy, the dialogue is rapid-fire and HI-larious.
    Brigitte B via Facebook

    All the dialogue in Chasing Amy (1997) is rad but I especially enjoy the part towards the end when Afflack (yeah, I said Afflack) is giving his threesome plea to Alyssa and Banky. good stuff.
    Dutch from MYMHM

    Snatch (2000) is one of my faves.  Some of the dialogue is just hilarious and brilliant.  Dennis Farina has some great one-liners.  
    Marie from MYMHM

    It's kind of a cop out, but Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (1990) has the best game of verbal tennis ever. Tom Stoppard is a bad ass!
