'Touched'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I love how she glides backwards and the door shuts by itself.
Don't all nuns do that?
I went to Catholic school for 12 years, and let me tell you -- I'd be walking down a hall with no doors and no windows, and a nun would just *appear*. Poof. Nun. It was unnerving.
Some nuns study at Hogwarts.
As long as they sport mullets, I think Mann will be ok.
Well, the Spartans did make a point of having their hair done before major battles...
Dunno, I kind of like the idea of Thermopylae with a synth-pop 80s soundtrack. This is why I was asking about Baz Luhrmann's "Alexander" I think - I'm picturing some sort of Ziegfield Follies version. (Because I'm sick like that).

Great, another reason for the religious right to ban the books. Satanistic AND Papist!

Sounds like it would have improved TROY and ALEXANDER. Maybe throw in "Don't You Want Me" and "Just Can't Get Enough" (the latter definitely for Alexander), maybe?
In other words, you want A Knight's Tale only set at Thermopylae?
('Gates of Heaven' is a wrong translation -- it is in fact much closer to Hot Gates, seriously.)
I didn't watch Daredevil because, eww, Ben Affleck as a superhero, but Premiere magazine tells me the sequel, Elektra, will NOT have The Affleck but instead have Goran Visnjic, a.k.a. Hot Doc Luka, on board as Garner's love interest. Man, I might have to watch that one.
BTW, has anyone seen The Time of the Wolf? Premiere listed it as one of the best flicks of the year and I haven't even *heard* of the movie, let alone seen it. I don't think it came to play where I live. I mean, Isabelle Huppert. An apocalypse. The creepy. What's not to love?
Goran Visnjic is criminally attractive. Damn, this means I have to see Electra now.
The person who printed that user review is pretty off-base thinking that a French audience would be more likely to take offense art a horse's death than an American one, though. Last time I checked, there weren't places here where you can have horse as the entree.
Daredevil had one thing going for it. Colin Farrell. And I'm not even a fan of the man.
