    Writing A Paper On Stratification

    My teacher gave us a choice of 3 films to write on: Precious Gran Torino Fly With Me I don't want to write about any of these films. She said she would be open to suggestions. Movies that deal with issues of cultures clashing etc. Doesn't HAVE to be about race. Any good suggestions? All films...

    The Fly (1986) Appreciation

    I don't see nearly enough respect and admiration for the Fly remake around here (or anywhere online for that matter). I find it to be one of the most well crafted pieces in the history of cinema. It lacks absolutely nothing. Amazing direction, one of the greatest scores ever composed, a tight...

    Time to Throw Down! 2009 Top Ten Lists

    I'm not posting a list yet but I'm just saying that in the old days everyone's posts were filled with movie posters etc. and it was really pleasing to the eye. What happened to THOSE days? Sheesh. By the way, this is my first post back in years. I used to be a regular back in the early part of...

    Official 2007 Awards Discussion Thread (not Oscars)

    I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that Viggo deserves best actor this year. I haven't seen There Will Be Blood, but man I hope he doesn't get snubbed.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)

    This 3D fad is grating on my last nerve.

    **Official HTF HD Formats Ind./Retailer/Studio Support Thread-*SEE POST 3176, p. 106*

    It's gotta be a tough few days for Blu-ray. Software sales are creeping up on Blu-ray even BEFORE the sale and now the hardware prices have plummeted in the span of only a few days. Warner going exclusive (something I think will happen) will be the killing blow. I was hoping dual players would...

    *** Official HALLOWEEN (2007) Discussion Thread

    Rob Zombie has never made any "death metal". His music is about as pop as it gets. I also thought Jamie Lee did an admirable job in the first of seeming responsible and tough. At the very least she was a character the children could confide in and trust to keep them safe. I don't know why this...

    *** Official RESCUE DAWN Discussion Thread

    The only part I disliked was the very end. Everything up to the rescue was fantastic, but the ending felt tacked on and kinda cheap. Still a 3.5/4 for me.

    ValueElectronics HTF exclusive sale

    Robert, I know this sale was supposed to be HTF exclusive, but I've seen this sale at 4 different forums already. Prepare to be bombarded.

    ValueElectronics HTF exclusive sale

    I just think that if you could get the players down to 150, they'd fly.

    just got back from ASIA ...

    Not when your opinion brings nothing to the thread of people discussing the band. If the thread had been titled "What is your opinion of ASIA?" then maybe your post would be relevant.

    Spurs got lucky. The NBA beat the Suns, not the Spurs.

    Just Saw Gandhi For the First Time...

    Is there anyone that actually likes this film? I found it to be one of the most boring pieces of cinema I've ever seen. This won best picture? Paper thin characters with zero depth. Plot that kept repeating itself. I thought I had watched the same movie 5 times in the span of watching it once...
