Not necesarrily, i always found Kim Eternity attractive, and she is about as "black" looking as they come:
http://www.starlitepublishing.com/Final/Dir/E/KimE.jpg I just always thought the others were kind of nasty. I know about live and let die, that is one of my favorites, I just always thought rosy was a bit on the ugly side. Nice figure though. PLus, any other woman is going to look bad next to a young Jane Seymour... http://www.omelete.com.br/imagens/ci...ne_seymour.jpg she actually looks a LOT like my wife, the younger Jane anyway. |
"Switchblade Romance"(Heute Tention)
A dissapointing slasher with a quasi twist ending....I saw the frensh version not the bad dubbed english version.. Guess i was expecting a good slasher......:rolleyes: |
It wasn't good? FUCK...it looked cool. That'S dissapointing.
I just saw "The Grudge" (U.S), it was not too bad, a little weird how it handled the timeframe/different perspective thing, it had SOME tense scenes - I personally don't think that much "Raimi" came through...but I guess it wasn't really exclusively his was it? Some freakyness...but I was like "what the fuck" when it ended, pretty sudden. I didn't like it greatly. Not bad, not that great. If "The Ring" is anything to go by, I might go check out Ju On, I'm guessing it would've been a little scarier, probably explained things a little better too? Anyone? |
| saw The Others last night on TV, better than I thought it would be as it was actually a 12 but it was still pretty crap. I've also seen Flatliners recently.
|
i thought the grudge SUCKED hardcore. i found no redeaming value.

I thought The Others was origional, brilliant, and well played, well paced .. cant say enough good about it. |
I´ve just seen "White noise". Most of the movie just seemd to me like another version of "The sixth sense", but then came the 5 minutes ending where i was thinking "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON????". And then.... THE END :confused:
Does anyone have an idea what happened in the last 10 minutes of this movie, coz i dont have a clue???????? :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: The good thing to say is, that it looks like Hollywood is finally fed up with all the slasher and bad-joked-monster movies and has begun to make some serious atmospheric horror, obviously inspired by the japanese. YIPPIIII!!!! They are not quite there yet, but at least they try. HURRAY!!!! :D |
The Others, unlike The Sixth Sense, did not almost beg you to guess the twist before the end.
Very chilling stuff - how about the ghastly old hag beneath the veil, with the child's voice? "I am your daughter!".... shudder. |
Watched "The Village" last night. I can see why so many people were upset at the ending. It didn't piss me off since I expected something lame, but it was an "OK" movie. Didn't hate it, but didn't love it either.

The whole film was run of the mill and obviously only existing to deliver a twist...an obvious twist at that. At least the "Sixth Sense" did something marginally interesting while it was building up to the twist. |

I usually see the 'twist endings coming a mile away' Every single time. The one thing that impressed me about The Others and 6th Sense both is not only were they fresh and origional.. well acted and tense ... they both delivered a twist ending i never saw coming ... and in a way that didnt feel like it was there as a gimmick. I have a lot of respect for both of these films. Your description of the film accurately describes The Village .. but not The Others - in my opinion. |
i watched white chicks last night for the first time since i saw it at the theater and it was just as funny there's no way you can not laugh at a 6'4 280 pound black dude passionately singing a Michelle Branch song.

I just saw Paycheck.
I had no idea what to expect, there were so many mixed reviews...I thought I'd go see it 'cos it was a John Woo action film. I wasn't dissapointed. I wouldn't mind watching it again to catch a few more things, but overall...I think I got pretty much all of it. The movie wasn't like much of Woo's other stuff, although you could tell he was involved (of course, there had to be ONE gun to gun standoff). Great action sequences and stunts, the storyline...although initially confusing, ends up explaining itself very well, and is pretty interesting. I saw elements of SO many other films in this one - Terminator, bourne Identity, 12 monkeys, memento, total recall, minority report and final destination...but at no point does it feel like it's immitating, or ripping off these films. Some fun predictability, good twists and revelations, and a few jokes....again, nice action sequences overall make for a pretty entertaining movie.... - B. |
i watched "The Living Daylights" last night for the 80th time.
|
The most recent movie I watched was A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 5: The Dream Child I watched all the Elm Streets in order, excluding Freddy's Dead and New Nightmare, since I hate Freddy's Dead and New Nightmare was my favorite and I didn't want to ruin it.
|
Before I begin, I just wanted to mention that I despised Paycheck. Great premise, but thats about it. Bad acting, decent action sequences,,,,,I was very disapointed
Anyway, I just watched Street Fighter. Wow, thats what an action movie should be. I have [usually] nothing against smart action movies, but I love to relax with a good, mindless movie like that was. I loved it. |
Now Im off to watch Chiller. I have VERY low expectations, but it still sounds decent-ish, maybe...
|
Oh my sweet lord
Chiller is the most retarted movie Ive ever seen. The only thing this shit is good for is starting a fire with the disc. I cant believe some of the shit Wes Craven has his name on, and he's still considered on of the masters of horror.... |

I just came back from watching Elektra... Apart from the 101 things that get added/taken away and the standard messing up of the history that most comic to film movies always entail, I didn't mind it at all. (I have read most mainstream comics, so I cannot help but to notice these things) Sure, I'd like to see Marvel go up to R18+ films someday, as titles like this would deserve, but for what it was, it's ok. Simple plot, easy to follow...not dumb, yet not overly complex. Great action scenes, some nice visuals too. Elektra was portrayed far more efficiently in this movie than she was in daredevil, and even though played by Terence Stamp, (which I thought to be a pretty unusual choice) "Stick" was done very well...one of the better characterisations I've seen in this kind of movie. I won't be rushing out to buy it on dvd, but it was overall pretty entertaining. People who liked her character in daredevil movie will most likely like her better in this one... |

"May"...i think it was dumb and a "wanna be"........poor acting by the main character (and everybody else) and a stupid plot....
It reminded me a bit of "Death Becomes Her"...it had the same not serious feel to it.....some gore but much of it off camera |

ex: he made the first Nightmare on Elm Street and New Nightmare he basicly had nothing to do with the others and the ones that he did turned out to be the best. |
A Beautiful Mind and Lion King 2.
|
JasonX
don't worry i'm recovering slowly but i'll be ok. |
The Visitors ..
the one abouth the french knight and his lackey that end up in modern day Chicago.... (Jean Reno is the knight) Really funny in most parts ...The restaurant scene was the best .. |
Quote:
|
So you saw the french version (?Les Visiteurs?) of the film then urgeok?
Good. It's WAY better. They remade it in the US a few years agio under the name of "just visiting", it was watchable, but nowhere near as funny IMO |
The Day After Tomorrow
|
i watched the new dawn of the dead. it was ok. after that i saw sid and nancy on the indy film channel. third time i saw it.
|
Eternal Sunshine of the Spottless mind. I had to buy it, saw it in the theater when it came out. Great movie.
|
The Lion King - The SE version.
Including an royal all star voice cast, and also cinema actual Jeremy Irons. |
Quote:
|
Oh yeah, get it for SURE.
Has the same 2 guys in the same roles too...but yeah, the twists and jokes and action...SO much funnier. Although the US version WAS one of the better remakes I've ever seen. |
Quote:
oops .. i have the US remake ... I'd get the origional but I've never seen it anywhere up here. I cant believe how many movies are remakes .. not just the origional ones (I knew this one was a remake) but Penn's The Pledge .. was a british film origionally .. and Insomnia was a foreign film as well. But Just Visiting ... the scenes in the bathroom at the house .. in the kitchen, in the restaurant had me howling .. the look of bewilderment on their faces was priceless. |
