General talk about movies, TV, radio, and other entertainment discussion.
Discussing favorite movies is a great topic but keep in mind some folks haven't seen the movie yet we may be discussing so don't give the endings away!
Hey cool - the Movie "The Babe" about Babe Ruth the baseball player just started on TV.
I was an extra in this movie back in 1991/1992, but because the movie is so boring, I never have sat through the whole movie. (I think I'll try right now!)
No I didn't watch the bonus disk. I agree that it was a well made movie. I had heard it was "Really Good". I felt like I was left hanging at the end. I also had a hard time believing in some of the characters. It was a good movie. Just not as good as I was expecting.
Oh nice one Cole, I've just bought Bitter Moon off ebay, I have seen it but would like to watch it again. I shall look out for the Missing, I like Tommy too ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yes indeedy I do. hehehhee
I just saw this on DVD...WOW....didn't catch on to what the ending would be til darn near the ending!
Which is exactly how I like my thrillers!
Hallie Berry is wonderfulin her role.
And the plot is superb. Rated 'R'
Lots of violence, blood, gore, sexual content.
But as an adult, nothing I couldn't handle.
The 'hard part' for me to handle was the betrayal.
But that was a big part of the story line.
Don't you have 'rateings' in England?
If any parent or guardian has a child around this age, especially one who shows signs of trouble.
I highy recomend this film.
It was concieved, and co-writen, by a very young, Niki Reed. Who also stars as the troubled Evie Zamora.
The film centers around 'Tracey', played by Evan Rachel Wood (other film includes 'The Missing' as the kidnaped daughter), and how she falls, willingly, under the wrong influence of Evie.
Holly Hunter is superb as the Mom.
And Jeremy Sisto is very good as the 'half-way house junkie boyfriend' of the mom.
Passion will be in France - French courts refuse to ban the movie even though many people wanted it banned. (I believe it is playing.... now, or in the next few days/weeks)
The Rock is ruggedly handsome....and the man can ACT!! I predict he will go far in the acting field.
And any movie with Christopher Walken is just a treat.
My creepy apt. building owner won't put cable in..
soooooo...at least with Netflix, I am slowly going to be able to watch cable shows...Just finished the first 2 shows of 'Taken'....so cool.
a very strange and very cool movie The Triplets of Belleville...
The whole family will love this DVD...and I can't get the song 'Belleville Rendez-vous' out of my head...If you get the DVD, watching the music video, in the special features section, is a must!
lilac from what I have read about Kilmer is he might be drop dead gorgeous but I guess he is really hard to work with and directors nor actors wanna work with him. TOo bad, he's got mega talent!
I suppose most of them got a touch of the prima donna about them. I don't like Bruce Willis very much though. I don't fancy them very often just once in a while one tickles my fancy
Voyager Second Season is out. I got the first season. I found it to be short. Could have done with two more episodes. There were no outtakes. Some outtakes would have been cool. And of course no Seven of Mine. I guess she does not arrive till the 3rd season.
Two Star Trek questions.
Which series is the best and which movie was the best?
That said, let's talk current box office.
Saw Shrek 2. It was good. Solid performance by Pinochio and Donkey.
Troy. Solid performance by our boy, Brad Pitt. Man, Archilles had style. Didn't quite like how he ended though. Our boy Orlando put some serious arrows in him.
Van Helsing. Wolverine did well but the whole story was weak almost like Hellboy. The action is there but the movie was empty.
Yeah it is coming out today! We have reserved a copy at the vid store today to buy. Today only they are selling it with the trilogy box for all 3 movies for only 20 bucks! You know what we are watching tonite!
Let me just say I agree with you Lord of the Rings People. The Trilogy is a Masterpiece in so many ways.
That said, Most fans of star trek like the original series and star trek iv: the voyage home.
I did not see much of the original series to get attached to it. I like the Voyager Series best of all. The technology is sophisticated, the dialogue is intriguing, there is a lot of depth in the scenarios and who does not love Seven of Nine.
Star Trek IV: The Voyage home was great, but I much prefer VI: the undiscovered country. There is playful yet serious exchange of dialogue. Beyond that the artistic intention is unique and creative.
I thought Generations was great. Sometimes heroes die. It would be so "artificial" if important people could not die. Spock died in Startrek 2. Data died in Nemesis. Picard's clone died too.
What are your thoughts on Nemesis. I found Picard's clone to be Extremely wasteful of time. He knew his condiction was time dependent. He had 2 missions. Do the blood transfusion and destroy Earth. He Jacked around the whole time till it was way too late.
Yeah, it is about hockey. 1000 movies? What is it, the BBW video store? I have over 200 hundred DVD's and countless videos, but not 1000 worth. Are you like me...STILL nothing to watch? LOL.
Well I never had cable/satilite TV until recently - so I would buy a lot of pre-views movies from Blockbuster (or other stores), so I have slowly built up a collection of over 1,000 VHS tapes, and now about 250 DVD. BUT recently we got satilite TV, so now I rarely watch any of my movies - and will probable start trying to sell many of the VHS movies soon since I don't watch them.
Do you have people borrow your movies? I do. I have so many that I developed a Palm program to track what movies I have and who has which movie. I even post my DVD list on my web site (www.summertop.com). Sorry, good people of BK, I don't ship and I don't loan them out to people I don't know.
