My Grandfather was a bit of a movie buff, and I remember being at his house when I was a kid, and we watched the original "Planet of the Apes." After the last scene, I was absolutely mortified. I couldn't sleep that night, and my parents had to stay with me to keep me from crying. Of course...
Anybody know if/when this may be coming to Austin, TX? Man oh man, I love this movie. I think I'd quit my job to see this if I had to. Maybe it will come to the Alamo Draft House? My wife loves going there, even if it is to see one of my "dorky movies."
I can't see where anyone has mentioned this yet, so I'm gonna. Did anyone catch what Madolyn says to Castigan at their final meeting? She says she has something to tell him, to which he says "You can tell me in 2 weeks, if you still want to."(Paraphrased) The next scene is where she tells...
That may be because Elfman's own career started in a similar manner (pop star turned film composer), though I've never heard of any of his scores getting rejected or "pared down".
Actually, I always assumed that Dave asked HAL to rotate the pod just to test HAL, i.e. to check his response to the order when Dave knew HAL could hear him, and then follow that with the test when he turned off the sound transmission. Besides, I would think that if Kubrick needed HAL to see...
I'm so glad Lucas didn't screw this up. Let me qualify that statement by saying that I enjoyed "The Phantom Menace," and moreso "Attack of the Clones," but neither measured up to the Original Trilogy. I think this one does. I need to see it again to decide for myself if I like it better than...
New live user. playing the heck out of halo 2. And I'm terrible. But if there is any spots, hook a brother up. gamertag: cogeneral I really dig the team games.
WWWOOOO HHOOOOOO!!! Just signed up. Eating, sleeping, breathing HALO 2. Played so long the other night I couldn't sleep. I'd close my eyes and I'd see Halo 2. GAMERTAG: cogeneral Playing: Halo 2, possibly more later.
I'd like to see 2061: Oddessy Three made into a movie. Sure 2010 didn't hold a candle to the original, but I found it entertaining. Plus, I think A. C. Clarke has really great ideas in his novels that would translate to screen effectively.
I never really worry about casting if the director and casting director are worthy of the material. Which leads me to this question: Who the heck is Garth Jennings? How did he get this job? I'm not trying to be difficult, I really would like to know. I've been waiting a long time for...
That is un-f***ing-believable. And this is a bad question and I don't quite know why I'm asking, but did he pee within the confines of his clothing, or did he, shall I say, "let it loose"?
Sorry to take so long to reply to your reply... Actually, at first, I was not interested in transfering any Data, per se, but rather an analog stereo audio signal. However... Now that you mention it, I have been getting interested in such a Network. I have my mac, which I use for pretty...
Chris Lynch's Mighty Untouchable 2004 Film List! Last updated Mar. 31, 2004. Criteria: Same as pretty much everyone else-NY/LA or simultaneous Wide Release in 2004. 2004: None yet. I've just had one of the busiest months of my life, coupled with the fact I've been extremely broke...
I have a strange request. I have a fairly basic home theater system in my living room. I also have a Mac in my "studio" (i.e. spare bedroom) that I would like to hook up to the System in my living room. The problem is that the wire would have to go through a hallway, a kitchen, and a dining room...
I have to second Mission to Mars. I think the reason I hated it so much was the huge "actual result/anticipated result" ratio. That, and it's only plot developments were "Gee, I wonder what can go wrong next? WHOOP!! Didn't think of that!!!" Actually, it's kinda like Armegeddon in that regard...
Yeah, okay, I wanna play... I figure it will be an excuse to catch up on some classics I've never seen, like The Thing and some Hitchcock. I usually squeeze in Alien every year, so that will probably end up on the list. Be back to update soon. Oh, and as for Scarface being counted as a...
As a general rule, I agree with those who say a great movie is a great movie, regardless of running time. There is only one factor relating to running time that I notice, which is: 90 minutes of A+ material is really good, 180 minutes is even better 90 minutes of F- material is really bad...
Very good point Michael. Digital technology does provide us with consistency, but they have a little ways to go to match the beauty of the natural methods. People still love their LPs, and for good reason.
Hey folks, I'm currently living in fine San Marcos myself, I love it here. Jim, you still in this area? It may interest you to know that Waiting for Guffman was filmed in lil' old Lockhart, which is a tiny town in the vicinity of San Marcos. The football field scenes of The Faculty were...
If I had to guess, and supposing Mr. Chong is NOT insane, I would say that: It isn't the money, but the publicity demands that cut him out of this dealIt looks like he put the comma in the wrong place on his bonus figures, instead of dropping the last zero by accident. The fact that he makes...
