I love Milla. I think she's my Angelina Jolie-lite.
Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I once saw Milla as the opening act at a Crash Test Dummies show.
She has an amazing voice. And? If that was not a 'stage persona', she's got a few screws, loose, bent, melted and sauted.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I'm pretty eh on Milla as an actress, but I've found a song by her that I really like off the Rules of Attraction soundtrack.

She may also be Juliette Lewis-lite.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Resident Evil is so not comparable to Event Horizon. Event Horizon wanted to pretend it had a point until it turned into a gore fest. Resident Evil was a gore fest from the beginning and was perfectly fine. It embraced its goriness.
And the commentary's a hoot.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Event Horizon wanted to pretend it had a point until it turned into a gore fest.
Was is the hooks in Jason Isascs' back that fooled you?? Seriously, I never guessed that EH had any pretense at all. I mean, okay, "arty excessively baroque engineering design", yes. But the minute the not-survivors were recorded doing their thing in Latin, I just started laughing and didn't stop.

Event Horizon was on the spooky space mystery movie track until Kathleen Quinlan took a header onto a metal deck twenty feet below. Then it took an abrupt left turn onto the incomprehensible gore fest track. And then Sam Neill put his eyes out.

Oh, man, I shouldn't have looked at Paul W.S. Anderson's IMDB page. I didn't actually realize he did both movies we'd been talking about. But Mortal Kombat and Soldier didn't suck. I wonder what happened to Event Horizon.

Dana, Mortal Kombat did suck. There was a memo.
