Sunday Feb 6, 2011: The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring [PG-13] (2001)
Dominic Monaghan a.k.a. "Charlie Pace" in the movie that brought him fame in the States. Obviously not something you should be watching for the first time with no intention of watching the entire trilogy. Or maybe you should? :)

"Jack Shephard" portrayer Matthew Fox plays Racer X here in the Wachowskis' live-action take on the anime classic.
















Tuesday Feb 8, 2011:
The Edge [R] (1997)
Sir Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin and Harold "Michael Dawson" Perrineau vs Bart The Bear. How could you pass that up?















Wednesday Feb 9, 2011:
Planet Terror [R] (2007)
Naveen Andrews, who played "Sayid Jarrah", has a small part in Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse entry. It's small, but it's fun.
















Thursday Feb 10, 2011:
The Hurt Locker [R] (2008)
Evangeline Lilly took the summer off from playing "Kate Austen" to take a small role as Jeremy Renner's wife in effective this war drama. Her part doesn't really add anything to the proceedings, but it's a great movie! So watch it!














Friday Feb 11, 2011:
The Cutting Edge [PG] (1992)
Before he was "John Locke", Terry O'Quinn appeared in this "Romspordramady" (Romantic Sports Drama Comedy). Watch this movie even if you've already seen it. "Toepick"!















Saturday Feb 12, 2011:
Frequency [PG-13] (2000)
Elizabeth Mitchell stars in this sci-fi family drama. She would of course go on to play "Juliet Burke" in Lost.
