Watched Monster House (rented) three times. It was awesome. The motion capture techniques are off the scale in terms of realism. It easily stands on it's own from a dialog standpoint. I think the writers nailed the adolescent voice (even when it's cracking). The CG was outstanding, and the humor carried it. Enjoyed by everyone in the family.

Also watched Born Free. excellent, recommended.

Bush's Brain. A film that highlights the close, even intimate relationship between Karl Rove and George W Bush. There was considerable discussion about Rove's "dirty tricks" and his "hardball" political technique. None of which surprised me.

Deserted Station. A sparse, intriguing film from Iran, about a remote villiage and the people who live there and the "teacher" in the village. worth the rental.

North by Northwest. Hitchcock. Cary Grant. Eva Marie Saint. James Mason. It rocks.

The Sentinel. Michael Douglas, Keifer Sutherland, Kim Basinger, Eva Longoria. MrsV said will probably be a purchase. it was very entertaining.
