I have made a sampling of the more popular movies put up on the big screen in 2008. This list consists of the movies I enjoyed watching this year. I'm sure that you can find a picture or two that are good viewing. WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS: It was a wild night in Las Vegas. Joy and Jack, who had just met, wake up to discover that they are married.

With $3 million on the line, they each try to get the other to give up, as both desire to get the money for themselves. HAMLET 2: Unsucessful actor Dana Marshz now finds himself teaching high school theatre to apathetic students.
