Can I

Mack? I\'d have to say the lesbian tryst in \"Mulholland Drive\" with Naomi Sims has to be one of my favorites

of all time...Then I saw her on \"The Actors Studio\" &amp; she said that doing a love scene with a woman makes it

Vin Diesel is great. I will try to steal the movie. I mean I will go

out and see it.

Very intense. Makes "Resident Evil" look like... well... a

video game. But the original "Night of the Living Dead" is still the creepiest zombie movie ever made IMO.

How about dawn of the dead 2004 ?? these zombies will actually

run after you, instead of walking slowly.

So these are far more deadly, then in any other movie.

The scariest part to me was when the lead

character goes in the church and yells out "HELLO?" and the zombies began looking up at him. The rest of the movie

didn't scare me at all.

Sorry...but don't be too mad Elana. There may be other parts of the

movie you may find scary...it's just that I didn't. If you want to a see a FUN scary movie I'd recommend Van

Helsing.

[Sexyredhead]

Van Helsing was neither fun

nor scary.

[Numanoid]

It was scary when vampires or

werewolves jumped out of nowhere. Made me jump.

[TopDawg2050]

What about the part when the

two guys dive in through a window. The movie wasn't very well-made, the "zombie" humans had no motivation to kill

the non-infected ones, also if they had "rage" why were the infected humans attacking the non-infected ones and not

the other infected people. That virus didn't make much sense at all.

Also, has anyone seen The Day After

Tomorrow, that movie was great...

[Numanoid]

Also,

has anyone seen The Day After Tomorrow, that movie was great...

I saw it. I thought it was ok, but

it seemed more like a tv movie to me. Cliche characters and I just knew what was going to happen. I won't give

[jose]

On DVD is "The Butterfly Effect" which

I rented, but it stars that guy from That 70's Show. If you can get past him the movie is pretty good. It has

the Director's Cut (a totally different ending) on one side of the disk and the theatrical version on the other.

[Holmes]

"Mistyc River".

was a good movie , I had trouble with the ending though, kinda bummed me out.

The ending is

wide-open. We don't know what happens after the parade. At the very, very least, Jimmy has to live with

it.

You're right, though. It does appear that Jimmy has actually been rewarded for his behavior (with

extra doses of sympathy, understanding and even affection, courtesy of his wife) and that is a little hard to choke

down.

On the other hand, is the whole thing really his--or anybody's--fault?

[DCW]

The ending is

wide-open. We don't know what happens after the parade. At the very, very least, Jimmy has to live with

it.

What I found disconcerting was that Annabeth Markum (Jimmy's wife) not only accepts her husband's

blockheaded behavior, but showers him with extra affection and understanding over the whole thing. Irony makes fer

great drama, don't it?


True indeed like Lady Macbeth she might be his downfall in the end.
I

can't remember the last time I came out of a theater feeling sad and disturbed by the outcome of the

story.

Yes, but it was pretty funny when he woke up as a frat

boy.
I liked the story, but I didn't think either ending was quite right. I wish the guards would've broken in

before he had a chance to "do his thing". This would have ended the movie with an apropriate measure of

uncertainty.

“Dirty Pretty Things” is out on

video. A realistic drama, with surreal undertones, about immigrants trying to survive London’s wicked underside.

Great story. Great acting and perfect casting. Audry Tatou (star of “Amilee”) plays and innocent Turkish girl that

everybody tries to exploit. Sergi Lopez (costar of “My Friend Harry”) plays an excellent bad guy. Some British actor

I’ve never seen before plays a Nigerian doctor running away from his past.
Shocking ending and one of the

greatest lines I’ve ever heard in a movie:
“Why haven’t I seen you people before?”
“You never see us.

We’re the people that drive your cabs, clean your rooms, and suck your c@#$.”

The documentary Control

Room was an excellent, honest film about truth, honesty, and balance in war journalism; as well as the battle

for these goods, in context of the Iraq war.

A lot of people are comparing it to Fahrenheit 9/11; and

for a good reason, due to the similarity in subject matter. The pacing and filmmaking was perhaps a little better in

Control Room; although 9/11 was perhaps slightly more ambitious and difficult.

Although staunch

conservatives are sure to dislike the film, since conservatism is partly a mental trait and cognitive habit;

independent-minded lovers of free information should find much reason to admire it.

"he dies at the end"
( okay, okay I'm kidding!:p ) I haven't watch that movie yet!...:D

Harold and Kumar is a very funny

movie. Its a must-see movie.

and The Village.
Good. I've heard great things about "The Village", but my gf hates creepy stuff, so I

guess our next movie will be "Collateral".

"The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi" was very entertaining. It's Beat

Takeshi's remake of an old series. If you've seen some of the originals you'll really appreciate the satire. The

ending is a gas.

[DrSmellThis]

The Corporation was a

good movie.

[metroman]

"Harold & Kumar go to White

Castle", "The Corporation" & "The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi" are all in my "Awaiting Releases" netflix

I live in a medium size conservative

city, we have one theater that plays foreign & indy stuff...cant always find what I want to see there...

Holmes is a tool for

having a full PM box (just kidding, buddy), so I'll tell this to everyone:

Hero

Have you seen it? I

watched it yesterday, and it was a very well-made movie. I am amazed at the special effects (never seen anything

like it...not the Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon-like stuff but the arrows and the colors and stuff). Great movie.

You should see it. I thought the subtitles would bother me, but they did a great job of translating it into

English. Pretty cool overall.



PS: Help control the mail population. Have your mailbox cleaned or

:lol:

No, but some friends

of mine saw it last night. I haven't heard what they thought, but I do want to check it out.

I'm waiting

for The Life Aquatic (Bill Murray back to his old self) and The Aviator.

Oh, and XXX2.

:rofl:

Gotta go clean house...

[SweetBrenda]

Instead of

going out with my friends tonight. My little girl and I were bonding spending some quality time tonight insted! so

we had pop corn and rootbeer (her fave drink) we were watching *13 going on 30* one of the cuttest movies

ever. Definitely a Chick's movie as some guys might say (haha) we really liked it. She's (my little girl) growing

so fast makes me sad in a way because to me that is exactly what she will always be ( my little girl no matter what

age she is) and it was cute having her laugh with me of some of the scenes in the movie. Her laugh makes me feel

happy is such a great feeling she's one happy little girl and that makes me feel good.



She acts so much like me some times it's funny but she has her own personality and she's very

unique but I find it so amazing to see some of me in her. She likes me to tuck her in and read her a bed time-story

every night until she falls asleep and even though there's times I'm not in the mood I always do.. Tonight while

we were watching this movie it made me realized those moments are actually the best moments of her life as well as

mine because once the time is gone we can't get it back! and having those sweet short memories of us spending time

together, reading her a story, tucking her in at night, kissing her forehead and saying I love you & hearing her

sweet voice saying I love you to Mommy are some of the best moments in my life and those sweet memories are captured

in my heart as well in my mind until the day I die... What a wonderfull feeling she gives me, what a wonderful thing

is to be a Mommy of such a loving little girl.

Yeah I guess this movie did a little

more to me because I used to be in such rush to grow up but once I got there I wish I was young all over again and

to see my kid rushing to grow up too sort of makes me sad because I wish she wouldn't.. I wish she could stay the

age she is now and be with me forever... (okay Im crying now..) Sorry I'm a bit emotional tonight and I think it's

showing.. But those who are parents can relate to what I'm rumbling about..
BTW she is

sleeping with me tonight and I enjoy this more than her to tell you the truth! although she basically takes the

whole bed and I end up at the edge I enjoy her little arms hugging me during the night. But this only happens every

once in a while because if we make this a habit than is hard to get her back in her bedroom again and I need my

privacy too. Anyway, I will stop here now I just had an emotional moment. My next movie is Saving Private Ryan. Not

sure if I really want to start watching this tonight.. I'm a cry Baby and not ashame to admit it and as much as I

suffer watching movies like those I really enjoy them a lot! I watched Man Of Honor for the 1st time sometime last

week and OMG awesome Movie!! And NOOO I didn't drop a tear in this movie!,,,, (okay I'm lying) I couln't stop my

tears from falling...
Hugs to you all
Brenda

[jose]

WoW Sky Captain and the World of

Tomorrow will become a classic. The whole retro look of the film is amazing, it felt like I was watching a actual

movie from the 30s combined with giant robots, Ray Guns, and a Flash Gordon type hero. To those that don't know

this movie it is entirely computer-generated only the actors are real. The dialogue and acting could have been

better but I can see they were trying to go for a comic-book serial. This is one of those movies you have to see on

the big screen so don't wait till DVD, I highly recommend it.

[Numanoid]

The last good movie I saw at the

theatre was Collateral. The chemistry between Tom Cruise' character and Jamie Foxx's character was great.

Actually I saw it twice, cus I thought it was that good. :thumbsup:

I'm about to go watch

"W.i.l.l.o.w" so many people have told me that is one great movie so I'm about to make my own opinion on this

one....
G'Night

[a.k.a.]

“Shawn of the Dead”: There’s some

social satire, but mostly it’s a verry well done play on the tension/frustration you feel while watching stupid

people try to get away from mindless, slow moving zombies.
Warning! This is not a straight up comedy. There’s a

few shocks, lots of gore and way more suspense than “Resident Evil”.

[MOBLEYC57]

Anyone with a

taste for HORROR, seen THE GRUDGE? :rant::smite: :rant: If so, is it worth me monies ... is it scary ... I like

My co-worker, who's pretty

big (well, anyone who has me by a few inches and ~40 pounds is pretty sizable, in my opinion) and not very outwardly

expressive of his emotions, said he locked his door and had the light on all night after he saw it.

[SwingerMD]

Mobley,

I'm getting a lot

of negative reviews from friends that have seen it. I'm interested in seeing "Ray" today. I got to see Ray

Charles in his last major performance up here in Seattle a year or two ago (awesome).

I'm planning on catching

"The Incredibles" next week. I'm a big Star Wars fan and I've heard that the teaser trailer for "Star Wars: The

Revenge of the Sith" is coming out before that movie.

Anyone else see

it?

[DrSmellThis]

I watched What The Bleep Do We Know? last night. Great message (dead on, if watered-down to

Aquafina). Cheesy packaging.

Anyone else see it?Saw it three times: Cheezy elements, and stuff I'd

heard before; but at the time I felt good leaving the theater. I liked it a lot. The idea that you create your own

reality (here ideas dovetailed with Matrix a bit) is empowering.

It was filmed right here, so I reconized many

of the places in the film. It also premiered here, so I saw it a long while ago.

It did so well, it stayed

showing at the same old theater (the one pictured in the film) for months, at two shows a day.

The film has

generated a lot of critical flack in the local press; from charges of "hippie bullshit," (Ramtha, etc.) to

controversy about some neocon religious cult that the filmmakers are involved with. For example:

http://www.wweek.com/story.php?story=5860

Ironically, the

neocon idea is that, since you create your own reality, where you are is your own damn fault: You're on your

own, and don't need the government's help! The "haves" deserve to have, and the "nots" don't.

This

underscores that the insight behind the film is a dangerous idea -- that, even if true, the "general

population of idiot monkeys" might not be ready for it. Personal responsibility is highly threatening to us, and in

fact is somewhat dangerous.

This is probably the one characteristic that keeps religion and its mindset from

evolving, to keep pace with reason and civilization. After all, if God is within each of us, rather than in the

Bible, what is to prevent everyone from making their own rules? Could everything become "permissable"? Wouldn't

that mean the crumbling of all sacred and secure things? This is to say nothing of the individual's power to

create.

It is impossible to overestimate the amount of fear that middle America feels at the half-witted

contemplation of these ideas.

The problem is, that for our fundamental ideas and beliefs about the universe to

not evolve is way more dangerous and threatening! The old set of ideas is killing us and our planet.

I

personally wanted them to emphasize the science more, and the "new-aginess" less. I thought they hurt their own

"case" unnecessarily with it. But the controversy that came out later suggested that the filmmakers may have had

another agenda.

But it was a huge popular success. I'm glad you got to see it. I had recommended the film to

others.

[belgareth]

Unfortunately,

the ability to make one's own rules comes with a level of personal responsibility that many people are just plum

not ready for.


You have a tremendous ability for understatement, don't you?

the way), I saw the movie. It was fun! :)

I

watched What The Bleep Do We Know? last night. Great message (dead on, if watered-down to Aquafina). Cheesy

packaging.

Anyone else see it?

Interesting and a bit of synchronicity for me to read this post

this morning. At a presentation in Phoenix last November, my meditation teacher recommended this film. I had never

heard of it before and thought there was little chance that it would play in my town. I just checked my email and

from one of the Yahoo groups I belong to, I got notice tonight that the film will be playing in a small California

community just across the Colorado River from my town on April 15th. Admission is only $5, cheaper than the theatres

in this town.

Knowing that the town doesn't have a theatre of it's own, I suspect that it will be shown in

a church. Signs point to go though, and if I get there early, "good eats" will be available for only $5

more.

As a person who believes we do create our reality but often forgets to put it in practice (especially

the past few weeks), I need all the reminders I can get. I am writing down the date on my calendar as soon as I post

this.

Thanks for mentioning the film today Holmes. And thanks DrSmellThis, for your take on the picture.

[InternationalPlayboy]

Hmmm, a web search

shows the film will be shown at an RV park. Just type type of people I bitch about all winter. Must be some kind of

karma involved there. :blink:

After some ambivalence due

to the venue it was showing at (a 1950s era trailer park), I saw it tonight. It did have the feeling of "Afterschool

Special" meets "Donald Duck in Mathamagic Land" in places, but I liked it. I think it's worth watching several

times, I think I'll try to find a used copy on Amazon.

Hoping that there might be women of interest there, I

put on three dabs of Pheros/NPA 3:1 and two sprays of Chikara. I was not surprised to find though, that the crowd

was closer to my parents' age than mine. Though I had my usual pre-event jitters, I'm happy to report I was not

self-conscious at all after my initial entry.

I think the movie was something I needed to see, especially due

to the coincidence of seeing Holmes' post about the same day it was announced it was to be shown in my area. I have

been studying "Science of Mind" for several years but have problem puting it into practice. The old wriring is hard

to change. I have seen evidence of the movie's message in real life but still revert to my old negative

ways.

Interestingly, the main actress in the movie kept seeing weird things. On the drive back home, I was on

my town's main drag, a 4 lane street with a turning lane. I saw some guy run into the street from the opposite side

and then realized that I had just passed a guy holding a beer sitting in a shopping cart in the turning lane of the

road. In the rearview mirror, I saw the guy on foot push the other guy back into a motel parking lot. I wonder what

that means... (Other than it must be a good party they're having.) :)

That's something that concerned me when I

realized who the particular woiman was. Too much negative press in the 1980s/90s has influenced my opinion about

him/her. But I'm keeping an open mind as my meditation teacher has some far out claims and I also enjoy listening

to another channeler's tapes, Abraham-Hicks.

The movie was first recommended to me by my meditation

teacher. The people who attended last night were strangers to me (though I did recognize one guy from work), but I

think they were mainly Science of Mind people, which is basically a kind of positive thinking.

Kind of funny

that it is Ramtha propaganda as I was joking before I saw it that I was going to be indoctrinated into another cult

at the movie.

The discussion at IMDB about the movie is really heated. I'm glad I waited until after I saw

the movie to look it up there. I think the main point of the movie isn't some of the pseudo science that they

feature, but to get you thinking about how the way you look at the world shapes your experiences.

no good or bad but thinking makes it so." - Shakespeare

After posting here

last night, I ended up buying a DVD copy of the movie off of Amazon Marketplace at a discounted price.

Hey, I liked Donald Duck in Mathemagic Land...I watched it a half-dozen times when I was a

I liked that too, saw it in school. That was the closest comparason I could come up with

Do you like Pixar movies?

I'm amazed at the role CGI has taken in movies. My favorites are: Toy Story, Shrek and Finding Nemo.

Pixar films are fantastic! Although after watching some of their out takes added at the end of the

[InternationalPlayboy]

Saw

Shopgirl in San Diego last weekend. I think it's the best movie I've seen this year. I read the novella a few

years ago and liked it, thinking they could never make a movie that did it justice. Well, they did!

Check out

the production notes (http://shopgirl.movies.go.com/html/production_notes.html) to read more about it.

This is going to reveal me as

This is going to reveal me as a dork, but I loved Wallace and Gromit! Nothing like a little

I like that kind of animation (CGI for feature films doesn't move me) and the short

Wallace and Gromit pieces I've seen. But I was disappointed in Chicken Run so have been hesitant to see this one.

It's on my list though, but I may wait to borrow the parents' DVD, which I'm sure they'll buy when it's

released.

[DrSmellThis]

Chiken Run had lots of crappy

reviews, but the characters and spirit in this are wonderful.

Part of that is having seen the movie with my new,

wonderful girlfriend. So maybe I'm not being objective. :)

[InternationalPlayboy]

Just saw "The

Producers." I think it's better than the original, but no "Kung Fu Hustle." :) As for musicals, I think Chicago was

better, though Producers has its moments.

Uma Thurman has some long legs! I never noticed before. That must

be why she was barefoot dancing with Travolta in "Pulp Fiction." I bet she's taller than he is. I never realized

before how tall she actually is.

The movie was fun and the songs catchy though. I think the scene at the gay

director's house was the funniest. And I had a problem at first with Matthew Broderick freaking out in the first

scene. It seemed like he was trying too hard to channel Gene Wilder's performance in the original film there.



A bit of trivia: In the original movie, when they sang "Springtime for Hitler," there's a line, "don't be

stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party." That's was Mel Brook's voice, though he never appeared on

screen. They use his voice again for that line in the musical version too.

Funny, when I worked at a movie

theatre, I always resented having to work on Christmas day. This is the second Christmas that I've gone to see a

matinee. Last year it was that Steve Zizou movie. I've mainly gone, besides wanting to see the shows, to get out of

the house full of too many relatives.

[InternationalPlayboy]

I forgot to mention,

the movie was produced by Sony, so anyone doing a full boycott of their products due to their copyguard issue be

warned. I myself will buy the (Sony label) soundtrack, as long as it doesn't have that pain in the butt technology

imbedded in it.

[Holmes]

Thank You For Smoking.

Right smack in that distinguished space between hilarious and nauseating. Really well done - worth the

wait.

A nice, pitch-black family comedy. Highly recommended.

[InternationalPlayboy]

This one's several

years old, but I saw for the first time a couple of months ago at the dentist's office. He has these glasses with

little LCD screens in them so you can watch DVDs to distract you from what he's doing in your mouth.

Anyway,

the movie's "A Knight's Tale." From the moment I saw the audience at the joust singing, "We Will Rock You," I was

hooked. I didn't get to see the whole thing, so I went out and bought the director's cut that afternoon.

Disappointed that it didn't have the funny commentary soundtrack by the director and one of the actors, I then

ordered a used copy of the original version off of Amazon.com.

The movie got some bad reviews from people

thinking it was going to be a period piece. But I feel the use of modern rock "classics" and behavior in the movie

worked to it's advantage. I think besides the jousting action, my favorite scene is the banquet, where they start

to dance a Minuet type of dance and it merges into everyone getting down to David Bowie singing "Golden Years."

[Numanoid]

Munich was a good movie.

It's based on a true story of what happened after the massacre of 11 Israelie atheletes back in the 1972 Olympics.

5 men were hired as a hit squad to go after the Palestinian terrorists who were responsible for the massacre.


Another good movie is Lord Of War, featuring Nicolas Cage, as an international arms dealer and Ethan Hawke

plays an Interpol agent who chases Cage's character.

“The Notorious Bettie

Page”.
The political sub-plot was pretty lame and seemed like more of a marketing ploy than anything else.

But the personality profile was very touching: a tragi-comic tale of unflinching innocence. Some very cute naughty

bits, and lots of extraordinary acting.

[Holmes]

The one with Gretchen Mol? Is that

playing anywhere in the city right now?

[a.k.a.]

The one with Gretchen

Mol?
That’s the one. (She’s a QT.) If it’s playing in Denver it must be playing at a theater near

you. We didn’t get “Thank You For Smoking” until a week after your post. (Good recommendation by the way. It’s

always funny when coppertops try to sort through ethical dilemmas.)

[Holmes]

Oops, I'd forgotten you were out

West. (Why was I thinking NYC?)

Yeah, I've heard positive things about Mol's handling of the role, how she

really brought to life the person behind the persona, how she captured Page's innocence and vulnerability, how she

really was Bettie, etc. I'm kinda relieved that they didn't choose a higher-profile actress for this -

Angelina Jolie or whomever. (Now, if only Joss Whedon would cast Emily Deschanel as Wonder Woman...) Looking forward

to this one, for sure.

Glad you enjoyed TYFS. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a lot of that

movie - for most of it, I wanted to do both at the same time. The overarching message is pretty goddamned

depressing.

BR was awesome, though. "We don't sell Tic Tacs, we sell cigarettes. And they're cool,

available, and addictive...the job is almost done for us." :lol:

Been looking forward to this one. Opened in San

Diego yesterday, so I'll be able to catch it there in a couple of weeks. Hopefully, the "Not Smoking" movie will

still be there too. These kind of movies play in the "art houses," the nearest of which to my motel is in a gay

neighborhood. Within walking distance from the motel though, if I want to hike about a mile up a steep canyon road.

I saw "Shopgirl" at that neighborhood's theatre last year. Before the show, they showed a preview for some kind of

movie about two shirtless cowboys who fall in love on a fishing trip. I wanted to laugh out loud as I thought it

looked like a very bad movie and didn't even know they made films like that. Little did I know at the time that

"Brokeback Mountain" was a mainstream movie that would get a lot of publicity. :confused: :run:

Back to

Bettie Page, when she first started to regain popularity in the 1980s, I found there was some kind of primal

attraction to her, as if I had seen her somewhere before. I think they were still printing her pictures long after

she retired from the scene, in those cheap mature joke mags that I bought as a pre-teen in the early 1970s.

Same here. Her dominatrix shots actually look quite scary — and are

a big turn-off. But I think a lot of her “jungle queen” shots are still pretty sexy. I’ve got a bunch of them tacked

up in my study/junk room.
Who’d’ve thought the “pin-up queen of the universe” was actually a sweet little holy

roller from Tennessee?

now.

That’s pretty much how I felt about the father-son relationship.
With regards to the movie as a whole, my

uneasiness centered around the question, Is this movie a hard hitting lampoon of business ‘ethics’? (eg. Being good

at what you do is more important than doing good. And Sam Eliot’s great line, “I was good at killing Viet Cong, but

I didn’t try to make a living out of it.”) Or is it a convenient rationalization for our culture’s ethical

breakdown? (eg. Since when did paying the mortgage become a valid moral argument?)
Either way, the true face of

evil is portrayed quite graphically, for anyone that cares to see it.

Anyway... Since I’m going on and on

about movies, here’s some DVD recommendations:
“Serenity” and “Secuestro Express” are a couple of low

budget movies that make their high-budget parallels (“Star Wars” and “Man on Fire”) seem wimpy by comparison.


“Serenity” is a sci-fi/action movie with very compelling characters and lots of clever twists. Plus it portrays the

classic theme of Rebels vs. Empire with a good sense of humor and without a lot of heavy handed moralizing.
“Man

on Fire” was a good movie, but “Secuestro Express” handles the topic of Latin American abductions with the kind of

realism that makes your palms sweaty. (If you thought “Man on Fire” was suspenseful, you’re going to need some Xanax

for “Secuestro Express”.) There’s no heroes to save the day and the villains aren’t caricatures of Evil. They’re

desperate people at the end of their ropes and you never know when they’re going to go off. (Not to mention, Mia

Maestro is ravishing.)

Last, but not least, “Dot the I” has got to be one of my favorite movies of all

time. I didn’t catch it at the theaters because it seemed like just another love triangle.
There is a love

triangle. But, right from the start, you get the sense that something menacing is going on.
You pretty much have

to see it twice to appreciate what the screen-writer is doing. The first time around he basically f**ks with your

mind and toys with your emotions. The second time around you realize how the real story is being told in the margins

of what you first thought the story was about.

Both, I'm afraid.

That "paying

the mortgage" bit was one of the hardest moments to stomach. Surely there are more ethical ways to make them

payments.

Serenity was extraordinary - in every way. Whedon outdid himself, IMO. Here's hoping

"Fruity Oaty Bars..."

[InternationalPlayboy]

Just finished a foriegn language DVD called Lagaan: Once Upon

A Time In India (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0169102/). I think I must have been Indian in at least one of my past lives. I've been attracted to

their music since I heard George Harrison's album, "Wonderwall Music," and their images since a friend in high

school gave me a copy of the Baghavad Ghita that he bought off a Hare Krishna follower in an airport in the 1970s.

My meditation teacher once told a group I was in that were were all monks at one time who had taken vows of poverty.

With my financial situation, I believe it. And with my relationship history, I think there was a vow of celibacy

that I'm still burning off karma for too.

Anyway, I've been interested in seeing some Bollywood movies but

not knowing Hindi, was hesitant to pick one at random. "Bride and Prejudice" was my first one, which was by the

director of "Bend it like Beckham" and is all in English.

Lagaan is set in drought stricken India in 1893.

The arrogant British captain in charge of the area tells the villagers that they have to pay double tax (lagaan)

since he had let them slide with just half the tax the year before. The villagers protest and he decides that if

they beat the British soldiers in cricket that they won't have to pay tax for three years. If they lose, they owe

triple tax.

The main drawback with the movie is it's almost four hours long. :eek: The story really drew me

in though, rooting for the motley bunch of villagers and hating the priviledged frat boy like British team,

especially the captain. The photography is great and so is the soundtrack. Lots of dramatic drumming.

Other

than the legnth, the other thing that might put viewers off is that it's mainly in Hindi, though the Brits speak

English to each other. But to me, subtitles help me pay more attention to the film. I find that when watching movies

at home, I often start to lose attention and just half listen, while I surf the web or do other things. Can't do

that when you have to read to understand the dialogue.

I'm not one for sports movies and the last 1.75 hours

or so of this one is the cricket match. But I had never watched cricket before so that was interesting, and like I

said, the drama (and also the unrequited love of the captain's sister toward the main Indian character) drew me in.

My favorite character though, was Guran, who reminded me of Rupert from "Survivor."

[InternationalPlayboy]

I wanted to add,

that the scene where the whole willage gasped when the main protaganist touched an "untouchable" reminded me of "The

Beverly Hillibillies." A con man under the guise of a guru had his hooks in Mrs. Drysdale to get her money. She was

going on a trip to India with him and he told her that while there, she would touch an untouchable. Whe Mrs.

Drysdale said she didn't want to touch one, he told ther that would cost extra as "they're very touchy." :)

Richard Linklater (known for Dazed and Confused, Before Sunrise, Before Sunset, and Waking Life)

Great movie, I was a projectionist in a movie

theatre when it first came out and have since seen it several times on cable. Funny to see it mentioned here as I

have been thinking recently of getting it on DVD.

[Holmes]

I got out to a screening of

Everyone Stares: The Police Inside Out a couple of weeks back. Remarkable film...really gives you a sense of

what it must have been like to be in the band. Most highly recommended!

Stewart Copeland was at the

screening, incidentally. It's always gratifying to find out that one of your childhood heroes is a nice

guy.

Has anyone seen Lady In The Water?

[Bruce]

Finally saw Broken Flowers with one

of my fav actors Bill Murray. Very good but if you are used to movies totally resolving at the end, you can get

disappointed.

Just saw Howl's Moving Castle last night (Japanese anime by Miyazaki). My wife is Japanese so we

watch a lot of them. They seem to be getting better and better, the translation and overdub acting are definitely

improving.

[Bruce]

Also saw Robin Williams in RV

recently. It looked like a bomb in the previews, but we have a good laugh; good family/feel-good movie.

[Whitehall]

Bought a copy of "Bad Timing: a

Sexual Obsession" by Nickolas Roeg recently.

One scary good movie!

"The Devil Wears Prada" wasn't bad

and had some decent messages for young women.

"Serenity" was better than the latest Star Wars franchise but

still predictably unpredictable. Like those nonconformists who all look alike. A "pass the popcorn"

movie.

"Pirates" was a waste of money except for the air conditioning.

[Holmes]

So what do you think, Bruce? Was the kid (at the end) or wasn't he?

:D


Whitehall,


"Serenity" was better than the latest Star Wars franchise but still

predictably unpredictable.

Agreed. No Natalie Portman, either (another plus).

Have you seen

either of the first two Pirates movies? How did this one compare?

Bad Timing is on my list. Are

there any extras on the DVD?

[Bruce]

Check out the director featurette on

the making of the movie. That says it all. He says his goal is to make movies with no clear explanation and

everybody writes his/her own plot. Sort of a "Roarshock Movie" (you know, where you look at an ink blot and figure

out what you see there). Me? I figure the whole thing was a hoax perpetrated by the ex gf who was vacating at the

beginning of the movie.

My wife and I watched the first half of Memoirs of a Geisha last night; enjoying it more

than I thought I would.

[Holmes]

Yeah, I was asking half in jest.

It had to have been the ex; Jim Jarmusch's universe ain't exactly Disneyland.

Yep, that's Jarmusch for ya. I'd have

considered the ending to be a total copout if it hadn't worked as well as it did.

Great soundtrack, too,

huh?

I usually like to see everything

spelled out by the end, but I have to make an exception for this one. Good movie; yeah, music was great.

[SwingerMD]

Hi All,

Just saw Perfume:

The Story of a Murderer. Very interesting movie. I'm thinking about reading the book later. Interesting how the

main character was drawn to the scent of two redheads.

-SwingerMD

[Holmes]

Haven't seen that one yet,

Swinger, but it's been on my list.

On a completely different note, I just saw this one called The

Secret. It's based on the teachings/writings of Jerry and Esther Hicks. The concensus seemed to be, "see this

movie; it'll change your life!" So I checked it out.

My concensus: cringeworthy production - similar

in oh-so-many ways to What The Bleep... Very "Anthony Robbins Infomerical" at times (I repeatedly caught

myself wondering what they were selling). But I'm still on the fence about the validity of the message itself. I

have seen the process in action (mostly in other people's lives), but I'm still fighting the impulse to write it

all off as a either hidden opportunism or airy-fairy bullshit (as the universe is feeling pretty random to me these

days).

Doc would be a great one to talk to about this particular movie, but I'd also love to know what

anyone else thinks. Anyone? Anyone? Bruce? :D

[thirtyplus]

Children of Men.

everybody needs to see that film.

[KeepItReal]

V for Vendetta too !

[Bruce]

Holmes,

Just noticed your post

about the Secret. I watched it a few months back and my 2 cents says all that stuff is aboslutely for real and a

distant cousin to the disciplines that I am working with now, but (very big but in fact) my gut says those guys are

playing with a fire they have very little clue about. It's really a sort or religion based on the accumulation of

wealth. Check it out, most of those guys are bragging about how much money they got from the "secret." One guy is

even bragging about his 4million dollar house and in the same sentence his wife that "you would kill for." Um....

exqueeze me? If you cut that stuff out (which is 80% of the film), it's great. I loved that Texas "miracle man."

He is great. The Doctor tells him "you will be in bed on life support for the rest of your life", and he says

"Yeah? I say I'll be out of here by Christmas." I love that. That's what that is all about. Screw the money

and the $4 million house and supermodel wife. (figuratively speaking of course)
But I can tell you that stuff is

for real. If you believe something strongly enough, you can make it come true. Just depends how strong your mind

is. If you wish for lots of "stuff" and half the rest of the population is starving to death, um... I gotta feeling

there is gonna be a price to pay that those fellas hadn't bargained on.

My 2 1/2 cents.

Pray for Peace; then

go out and make it happen

[Holmes]

Glad to hear your thoughts on

this. I agree with just about every point you've made. The emphasis on money/materialism is kind of what turned me

off, too. Likewise, the saving grace (for me) was definitely the miracle man segment.

One of the questions

that keeps haunting me, though: could anybody have done what he did? Or was there something about his makeup,

something in his wiring, that made it easier for him to recover? (Or was it just luck?)

Thanks for the

reply. Off to check out Sam Mendes' new play with Bill Nighy and Julianne Moore...

[KeepItReal]

Your talking about the Law Of

Attraction right ?

I watched The Secret and have read a few books on the premise ..... and have concluded it

must be a crock !!

People starving to death cannot simply "believe" themselves into getting a better life

!!

People desperately in debt gamble their last few bucks away with more "belief" than any living soul .....

and still lose their money .....

I can't help thinking that there are simply winners and losers in life

..... the winners got their by sheer luck and coincidence ..... nothing more, nothing less .....

[belgareth]

Winning may in part be luck but

a lot of it is making your own luck. You have to believe then go out and make what you believe happen. There is no

luck associated with sitting and hoping something will happen but there is a lot of luck available to those who are

always trying.

One of the

questions that keeps haunting me, though: could anybody have done what he did? Or was there something about

his makeup, something in his wiring, that made it easier for him to recover? (Or was it just luck?)


.

I think anybody could have done that and can do it. I just depends how much you want it and

perhaps if you happen to get the right "guidance" at the right time. You can call it "luck" if you want. That's

probably just semantics. Lucky enough to have the will to be healthy; lucky enough to believe in yourself; lucky

enough to believe in the power of your own thoughts and beliefs... You can call that "luck", but there is still

some very cool stuff buried away in there.

in his heart, so is he."

fate."

[Holmes]

Thanks for that, Bruce. I

agree.

Btw, the materialistic sheen that made the movie so off-putting to you and me was all Rhonda Byrne.

She's a money-grubbing whore with intentions that extend far beyond "sharing 'the Secret' with the world." There

was some pretty ugly stuff going on with regard to the production of that film. Esther Hicks was completely

screwed.

Anyway, the movie presents a really dumbed-down, Oprahfied version of what seems to be a legitimate

concept. It's a shame, really.

I think a lot of

folks on this site will want to see this movie. I got it from NetFlix.



http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0396171/

But, don't read too far into this link as you might

get the plot ending and ruin the viewing experience. It's a very good movie, about 2 hours and a half long. Please

enjoy!!!

Saw "Stardust" with my 11 y/0

daughter and her buddy.

Not a bad movie at all! While definitely appealing to the "tween" girl audience, I

got into it and enjoyed the plot and the humor, both sophisticated and not.

The movie also did not have

anything I thought was morally a bad lession for kids, like so many Hollywood movies have these days.

Look

for the carriage that looks like a Hummer pulled by horses!

If you like a good drama check out

"In my fathers den" , it's an adaptation of a classic new zealand novel. No flashy effects , just a good story that

will surprise you. It's my pick for one of the best kiwi films made in a long

time.:thumbsup:

Wow. Still digesting it.

Anyone see Into The Wild yet?

I

was expecting McCandless to be lionized to the point of nausea, but Penn somehow managed to keep his love affair

with the guy in check. For the most part.

Great score, too.
