Gaia Cinemas: new movies!

We just got a fresh batch of movies in Gaia Cinemas, featuring some big-name actors, some truly enjoyable movies and one of the honest-to-goodness Greatest Movies of All Time. We submit for your consideration:

Flatliners - Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, Julia Roberts and one of the Baldwins star as medical students who toy with the very nature of life and death, which never seems to turn out well in movies.

Air Force One - President Harrison Ford invites a villainous Russian Gary Oldman to get off his plane! A profoundly ridiculous but extremely likeable movie.

Gattaca - An early Gaia Cinemas hit returns for a second run: this thought-provoking sci-fi classic tells the tale of a dystopian future where everybody is bred to be really smart and attractive, and that's bad for some reason.

Lawrance Of Arabia (Restored Version) - The word "epic" gets thrown around a little to often on the internet. If you want to know what it really means, check this incredible cast-of-thousands 70mm EPIC.

Rudy - The heartwarming tale of a determined underdog who dreams of playing college football for Notre Dame. Starring Sean Astin, best known as Frodo's loyal, pitiful toadie in the Lord of the Rings films.

Kung Fu Panda is almost here! On Sunday, you'll be able to choose from a single-disc DVD or Blu-Ray version, or the feature-packed Pandamonium Double DVD Pack, which includes the world premiere of Po’s all-new adventure Secrets of the Furious Five.

Mirai: Heeeeeeeey there! Hope you guys all had a great Halloween. How was yours, Barrett?


Barrett: I took care of some sick fish all week. It was really stress--

Mirai: Oh, Barrett, now is not the time to depress everyone. Hey! What's going on with these new Aquarium features?



Barrett: Glad you asked! A hugely requested feature has just been added: the ability to name your fish. Just click on one of your fish to bring up a handy new player card. Be careful, though, because once you name a fish you can't change it.

Mirai: I'm going to name one of my cuttlefish after you!


Barrett: Aw shucks! The new player card thingy also shows the age of your fish and their health. If you mouse over the hearts it will even tell you their health in numbers.

Mirai: There you have it! Check out your aquarium and see for yourself. Bye bye!


Barrett: Bye guys! Keep your eyes peeled out for more new features and fish.
