Metropolis is somewhere on my Netflix queue. I'm not sure where. I did some reorganizing this weekend when I was sick and didn't feel like doing anyting. Instead I added a profile to Netflix so I can have one profile for television stuff and one for movies because of all the tv series I hit the 500 disc limit on the queue.
Of course I'm not watching movies at a very fast rate, but I like to add anything I think looks interesting when I see it rather than trying to remmeber what it was.
Yesterday I watced
To Have and Have Not
on TMC, that's a great movie. Also this weekend I watched parts of
Stalag 17
one of my favorite movies.I managed to catch my favorite parts -- Xmas celebration (with the dancing and "Betty" , the unveiling of the spy, the execution of the plan).
Now that you mention it, I think I taped The Big Heat off TCM one night and never watched it.
One of Lee Marvin's early roles, and what nasty piece of work he is in the movie. Also, Gloria Grahame was awsome and heartbreaking.
I think X3 may have been worse than Highlander 2.
Wow.
Metropolis was one of those movies I had to watch in college, and yet I loved it.
I think X3 may have been worse than Highlander 2.
mmmmm. Really tough call. Completely fair assessment, imo. Hard to say though, which one falls more heavily or excruciatingly on the crap side of that razor thin line. If I had a gun to my head? H2 all the way, but very tough call.
I think several people (Patrick Stewart, Kelsey Grammer, Anna Paquin, Ian McKellen in his flashback scene with Stewart) had good performances in X3 amidst all the crap. If there was a single moment worth watching in Highlander 2 aside from Connery's resurrection scene, it's been wiped from my memory by the trauma.
I don't think I've seen many of her movies, but all the trailers (save Scooby Doo & Deux) make me just think "Slay already!"
Is she good?
Is she good?
Sources point to "No."
I never thought she was really great even in Buffy, most of the time, though her acting never hampered my enjoyment of the show (unlike, say, Julie Benz or Luke, back in Season One).
I think she's had her moments though. "Prophesy Girl", for instance.
