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.
we did see one for a new action flick that supposedly stars Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and... Arnold Schwarzenegger? WTF?
And Charisma Carpenter.
Which, really, is what boggles the mind.
Still, Statham and Jet Li figured large in the trailer, so I'm there. Despite hating the people you cited.
i'll have to see it. no matter how bad it is. i'm sure i won't see it in theatres though.
I'll be in the theatre for it, because I'm like that.
And I hate Mickey Rourke.
But Randy Couture!
Steven Seagal reputedly had a falling out with the producer. Jean Claude turned it down because it wasn't character-oriented enough.
Okay.
Jean Claude turned it down because it wasn't character-oriented enough.
bwah! ummm...okay.
Jean Claude turned it down because it wasn't character-oriented enough.
That's on the list of the funniest sentences I've ever read.
Have you ever had a dream with a dwarf in it? Do you know anyone who's had a dream with a dwarf in it? No! I don't even have dreams with dwarves in them. The only place I've seen dwarves in dreams is in stupid movies like this! "Oh make it weird, put a dwarf in it!". Everyone will go "Woah, this must be a fuckin' dream, there's a fuckin' dwarf in it!". Well I'm sick of it! You can take this dream sequence and stick it up your ass!
For what it is worth, I often have dreams with feral babies infesting a house, crawling on the ceiling and rustling inside the walls. They never attack people and strip all the flesh from their bones, leaving nothing but a skeleton behind, but it is always taken for granted that this a real danger. That strikes me as weirder than dwarfs. But I'll admit that, unlike ita, I've never dreamed about dwarfs.
Arnold Schwarzenegger? WTF? Shouldn't he be busy fixing California's budget or something?
Have you seen his attempts at fixing the budget? I'd rather he stick to acting.
Burrell FTW.
crawling on the ceiling and rustling inside the walls
"They're in the room!"
Jessica - so what you're saying is that even though Fischer's story is the B story, emotionally, it's so cliche that it undermines the whole movie? It didn't bother me, but I can see that.
As for the Fischer story finishing in the hotel, I thought that the will and the pinwheel gave the emotional catharsis they talked about that was needed to really plant the seed. I mean, the snow scene was theoretically Browning's subconscious, so Fischer thought he was seeing Browning's knowledge. Am I remembering all that right?
P-C, I made the connection with that Eames and that Fischer, just didn't see a clear resonance with the movie characters.
Of course, I kept thinking about Eames from L&O:CI.
