My hubby and I like to watch movies together at least once a week. The lastest movie we watched was "Cover", directed by Bill Duke. It was very good. Has anyone else seen this movie? Do you ladies have any other suggestions for great DVDs?

Girl, I blow-up the Red Box. Did you see Tyler Perry's "Meet the Browns?" That was good. I haven't rented in a couple of weeks, but there's plenty of good movies.

yes sweetpea street kings is the truth
If you and your hubby are into older movies, how about "All That Heaven Allows" with Jane Wyman and Rock Hudson. Or maybe "An Affair to Remember" with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr and of course another favorite of FH and mine's "A Walk In The Clouds" with Keanu Reeves and Aitana Sanchez-Gijon and Anthony Quinn. You will absolutely adore those. So romantic!!!
Oh and you'd definitely need a nice bottle of wine with them (wink, wink)

The Notebook was one I saw recently and loved.
Love lights even the darkest of paths.
What Fire doesn't destroy, only makes stronger.
Even when you don't know; God knows. I will be still and let Him do His thing.
Alone in the world; but always in the company of the Lord.

Yes Knocked Up was funny, I forgot that one.
I think Meet The Browns just came out within the month of August.
Thanks for all of the suggestions, old school and new. Now I have a nice long list to choose from.
I just bought "Meet The Browns". I intend to watch it this weekend. You ladies are the best!

Thanks for that info Shy.
Yep I had to watch "Knocked Up" a couple of times it was soooo hilarious. Tried to share it with hubby but he wanted to watch football!
Sorry I missed the follow-up, sensationablyhappy, I was off the site for a while. New DVDs usually come-out on Tuesdays. You can always check walmart.com or maybe blockbuster.com to see what's coming out next.
They show-up at the Red Box on the same Tuesday, but by the time I get there, whatever's new and popular is G-O-N-E. Especially if it's a black movie. The supermarket where it's at is in a primarily black neighborhood.

I'm going to pay my respects to the late great Julius "Sho'Nuff" Carry III
by watching The Last Dragon again.
What!!!! Julius passed away? I didn't know that!!!
You really have to dig for this news, Ginoue. It happened last weekend.
TV, film career lasted almost three decades
Chicago native's credits include 'Last Dragon,' TV shows like 'White Shadow,' 'Murphy Brown'
By Trevor Jensen | Chicago Tribune reporter
August 21, 2008
Julius J. Carry III, whose love of acting was sparked by roles in "Hamlet" and "West Side Story" at Hales Franciscan High School, had a long career in TV and movies that included a scene-stealing turn as Sho'nuff in 1985's "The Last Dragon."
Mr. Carry, 56, died of complications from pancreatic cancer Tuesday, Aug. 19, in his Studio City, Calif., home, said his mother, Rev. Helen Carry, executive minister of Christ Universal Temple in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood.
Mr. Carry left the Midwest to pursue an acting career on the West Coast after one year at Quincy College in Quincy, Ill. He studied communications at Loyola Marymount University, where he received a master's degree, his mother said, and made his big-screen debut in 1979's "Disco Godfather."
That same year he had a part in "The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh," and for the next 25 years he landed a steady stream of acting jobs, primarily on TV shows including "The White Shadow," "The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.," "Tales from the Crypt," "Murder She Wrote" and "Murphy Brown."
While a versatile actor who moved easily between comedy and drama, he was somewhat limited by his height of 6 feet 5 inches, his mother said. But his size made him perfectly suited to play Sho'nuff, the bad guy who yearns to be the "Shogun of Harlem" in the cult action-comedy "The Last Dragon."
Sporting an outlandish frizzed-out hairdo and a tripped-out version of samurai garb, Sho'nuff demands to know from his followers, "Who da mastah?" to which they respond, "Sho'nuff!"
"It came to life with what he did," said Taimak, who played the movie's hero, Leroy Green. "He just stood out because the character was so over the top."
Mr. Carry inhabited his role so thoroughly that, during a climactic scene where he's pitted in a martial arts duel with Taimak's character, his mother recalled standing up in a Chicago theater and yelling, "Kill him!" in support of her son's opponent.
"He should have known better, I raised him better than that," she said, laughing.
Mr. Carry grew up in the Lake Meadows neighborhood and attended St. Elizabeth Catholic School before Hales Franciscan. After getting a taste of the stage in high school, he knew he wanted to be an actor, said Chicago attorney Roland M. Stewart, a friend since childhood.
He worked hard for his role in "The Last Dragon," badly injuring a biceps while working out in preparation for his martial arts scenes, Stewart said. Taimak recalled Mr. Carry taunting him off-screen to make sure the actors had a real edge between them during the shoot.
"He had a dream, and he knew how to make his dreams come true," Stewart said.
Mr. Carry, who was once divorced, also is survived by his second wife, Naomi; and a brother, Ronald.
