Evey did mention that one of her former co-workers did not recognize her in the grocery store with the new haircut, and that may have reinforced her decision to keep the aerodynamic haircut. Perhaps V is partially responsible for the deaths of the girl and other innocents by flooding the...
Sam, Thanks for the link to the nj.com article. The information in your spoiler section sounded pretty right-onto me. Bill H. said
It looked more like a lighthouse in the distance. If it was glow from a fire, it would fit in with the theory that he is in purgatory. As usual, the...
This was a good episode that provided an opportunity for Tony's family to explain where their priorities are and what they want out of their relationship with him. Carmela is concerned about money and where/when this ride ends, but she really does love her husband. It seems that the family unit...
I think the Vomitoria were necessary because of the extravagant feasts where you would have a decadent meal and then empty yourself to fill up again. Because it would be rude to waste good food on the table!! I hope the show does get picked up again, because the real scandalous behavior...
I usually just TiVo SNL so I can flash through the crap music guests and the bad skits. This means that I can usually watch the latest SNL in about half an hour. In the previous years, I realized that somebody must have been enjoying the Mango and Superstar skits, and I could tolerate them...
Why would somebody watch this? Well, I'm embarassed to admit that I was visiting some friends this week and we turned on the television to flip around for something to watch. Inevitably, we found Showgirls and discovered someone in the room had not seen it. Since there wasn't anything else to...
Ifilm has a clip of the sex scene. It's not as impressive as had been rumored earlier, but perhaps there is more that isn't in this clip either. The Guardian UK has an interesting article about TA and Parker: South Park co-creator Matt Stone has vowed not to make another picture with...
Actually, I suspect Stone and his backers wanted to make an epic film based on the historical accounts of Alexander. I doubt that the Passion had anything to do with it, especially since the involved parties have been vocal about making this film since the release of Ridley Scott's Gladiator...
I don't know about other tours at the time, but I paid $35-$40 for balcony seats at Texas Stadium in 1994. I'm pretty sure that floor seats were at least $10 or higher. (I also thought there were some other type of luxury box packages that were waay expensive.) The Wall is very influenced by...
I can't wait to pick this up, either. I've read that the movie still doesn't have a distributor, but that shouldn't be a problem. Ian Holm + Amy Sedaris == Bags of Money The first four episodes of season three are in the season two set, btw.
Heh... I'm pretty sure that are some pot smokers on the bike/jog trails in Austin. My SFU group thinks that Nate is the perfect "granola guy", and took his toke "in stride" with his character. I have enjoyed the first episodes of this season. I didn't really care too much for Lisa (reminds...
I honestly can't pick a favorite. Polyester was the first Waters film I saw, so it holds a special place... The perversity of Desparate Living certainly appeals to me, though I wouldn't rank it was one of his best. I have probably viewed Cecil Demented and Pecker more than any of his other...
Great episode. I immediately thought to myself that the kids in the Special Olympics might be mentally handicapped, but they are usually not as fat as Cartman. He has definitely had some humiliations this season. The next episode should be interesting. I wonder if Jesus will come to watch...

Thanks, Chuck. I was quite nervous about posting my thoughts on this film. If I was going to spend $30 million on a film about Jesus, I guess I would've taken a different approach. And I can't believe that I missed a rare sighting of the Purpled One. I've heard that he's...
Good point. But I can not emulate that type of mercy and compassion in my personal life. None of us can. We can, however, assist the hungry, the destitute, the meek, the elderly, etc. This was the passion of Christ's life and teachings. He loved us. All of us. I believe that Jesus wanted us...
So.... The Greatest Story Ever Told has become The Greatest Quasi-Snuff Film Ever Made. Not that there's anything wrong with that. But it is quite rare to see a film that appeals to both Christians and S&M enthusiasts. This movie is well-made, but I guess I'm missing the point of it...
Lew, Thanks for the feedback. I really should apologize for using the word "rape" in my initial post. It's quite insensitive, and I hope that I didn't offend anybody. (I don't think that I did, but it doesn't excuse using that phrase). I understand that the industry wants to maximize...

Exactly. Again, look at the high tech industry. Over 25% of the business software used in America is pirated. The proliferation of black market software hasn't driven local businessmen out of business. Yeah, it means that some of us have a harder time to find work, and it...
Fantastic show, but I'm slightly disappointed by the extras. If I'm not mistaken, this interview is from the last season of the Bob Costas show. It's not a bad interview at all, but it seems like HBO subscribers have seen everything here already. Since the show is improvised, they should...
Maybe it was just a little too early for Bill. Did it start at 5 PST or 6? That's cutting into happy hour, right? Or maybe it's too soon after Bill's 4:20 nap? (I won't get to see it until later this week.)
Oh man. I rolled for about a minute after reading that. I naturally assumed that the darkness was a joke. If that's a serious attempt at rock, then I'm not impressed, either. That's just embarassing.
The villagers demand Arliss Box Sets!! Errr. Wait. No, they don't. I guess I'd like to see Tales from the Darkside, Tales from the Crypt, and Touched by an Angel. (Can't wait for HBO's Hitchhiker series in March!!!)
Well, the chronology gets a little shaky in the movie(s). In the books, the main events of Fellowship occur during a five months span, TTT take place over a period of around ten days, and then around twenty days in RotK (until the ring is destroyed). After having the opportunity to get...
Does DVD commentary count? "Here's the scene. Your dead uncle, dressed in the skin of your murdered father, is trying to rape you and kill you. But not necessarily in that order."
When they first announced the film, Freeman made an appearance at one of the consumer electronics shows. Intel was discussing the "new" Pentium IV chip, and Freeman came out and spoke for a second. They had a brief little pre-viz movie where they show the entire hull of the ship and then zoom...
