I can help you with that. What movie would you like to see?

I am not sure I was debating between Shuttered and Beyond the Storm. I like horror and action films. Have you seen either one?

That is good to know, I suppose I should choose the fan favorite. A good action film would be fun to see. I haven't seen a good horror film in awhile so I probably shouldn't take a chance if it didn't get high ratings.

That is a good choice, I have heard that Beyond the Storm was pretty good, it was directed by James Cameron and he directed Avatar if you remember that movie.
