  1. Chasing Amy and Swingers make for good back to back viewing.
  2. The people around SCEA don't think the PS3 will be seen in the US until the Fall.
  3. Re-read it. 12th word. This is in episode 17. I didn't expect to see it there. A clear departure from the original show.
  4. IMO Dr.Strangelove is one of the funniest movies ever made. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. Graham 357293[/snapback] There are some people who need dick & fart jokes to make them laugh. Then there are those of us who appreciate and love dry humor, witt, sarcasm, satire, and just plain old dark humor. If you love American Pie type movies, you won't like Dr Strangelove. Personally, I think Peter Sellers is one of the very best comedic actors who ever lived. If you can appreciate a movie like Being There, you are ok in my book.
  5. I agree, The Matrix is total shite in my book.
  6. YOU like Jimmy Stewart!??? Next you are going to tell me you like the Mets. 357103[/snapback] Cary Grant is actually my favorite actor of all time. I love Katharine Hepburn, as well. I love old film, what can I say?
  7. 357091[/snapback] This is still below projections, and won't make up for the losses of the past year. Kong is a hit, but not a huge hit, and certainly not what they expected it to do.
  8. The description of Episode 17 completely changes my view on the second half of the season. I don't quite now how I feel about this revelation yet.
  9. Easy Rider is a flat out horrid movie. Citizen Kane is what it is because it changed the way movies looked forever. What Orson Welles did with shots and angles has influenced every director that has come since. No single other movie in the history of film has had the influence that Citizen Kane has. Personally, I adore Breakfast at Tiffany's, and Jimmy Stewart is one of my favorite actors.
  10. What, no Buster Machine No.3?
  11. Its been 26 years since his last great work, Apocalypse Now. Sure, he had success with Godfather Part III and Dracula, but he hasn't been able to dupilcate the real success and power that he had in from the early 70's to early 80's.
  12. I LOVE Akira, but then again, I've been through all 2,000 some pages of the manga. Definitely changes your viewing of the movie. My 2 cents: avoid Macross II. Its like the Star Wars Christmas Special of the Macross universe. Officially, it doesn't exist. Just for giggles, the order is as follows: Macross Zero Super Dimension Fortress Macross Macross Flashback 2012 Macross Plus Macross 7 Macross The Movie: Do You Remember Love? is a dramatic retelling of the original series.
  13. Maybe because it was hokey, poorly directed, and violent to the point of being flat out absurd. And please, lets not get into the whole "faithful to the Gospels" thing. The only thing it was faithful to was the movie Gibson wanted to make out of it. Nothing more, nothing less. This is all outside the point of this thread. I don't hold Gibson down to one film he directed, and I thought the picture posted above was a good example that Gibson is the same old jokester he has always been. That, and it gave me a godo laugh. If this is going to become some discussion on The Passion, I'd prefer this thread be locked. There picture is up for all to see, no need for further comment if its to be off topic (or lead to a discussion that may turn very uncomfortable).
  14. Only morons and pedophiles argue about politics on anime message boards.
  15. Kong falls into second place entering its second week since release.
  16. I think after all of the uproar over The Passion (which, after seeing the movie [which wasn't very good], I found to be totally unfounded), I think its his way of moving past all of the craziness around that movie; poking a little fun at himself while having fun doing it. From everything I've heard he's a known praticaly joker, this seems to be his way of saying, "Hey, its just the same old me".
  17. I think that was the look he was going for.
  18. Not only is it "MAH-CROSS", its "Super Dimension", not "Dimensional". Ya know, this is usually the kind of thing you have producers and editors for.
  19. Yeah, it didn't seem very spoilerish to me.
  20. "Max 4: Fury Road" was to be filmed sometime in the past few years in North Africa, but it was called off due to worries over terrorism.
  21. No, that would be Minmay's voice when she's all grown up, had a divorce and birthed a couple of kids. That's not Minmay's voice when she was 15. It may be Mari's character, but her voice says other wise. 354128[/snapback] I dunno, sounded like her to me.
  22. LOL, I'm sure you'll be just fine.
  23. You forgot the 7 days of Fire. Oh, and you forgot to make it a poll.
  24. WoW now boasts over 5 million members.
  25. How can anyone say Reba West is better than Mari? I mean, its her frigging character! Minmay sounds like she is supposed to sound, but in english.
