Cheese Man ,'Chosen'
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.
Huh. I still haven't seen Jaws, although I did read the Reader's Digest Condensed Book version of the novel (my mom got those).
I'm pretty sure that part wasn't in the book, but I'm not sure. I think that was the first flowering of Spielberg's WWII obsession showing.

!!! It's like I don't even know you, tommyrot!
I am on record (well, the BRQG, which is "record," right?) as hating Quint's long, harrowing story of the Indianapolis;

A worse idea than seeing Aliens 3 or Alien Resurrection before the first two.
Hell, Jaws 2 sucked ass as well. Yet another movie that never, EVER needed a sequel.

I have it on good authority that Aliens 3 is one of the best horror movies of the last 20 years.

I think I saw Alien 3 before the first two. I really liked it.
Which is the aliens movie that was the AIDS allegory?
I could not finish that one.

I hope it's the second one, because that would be one seriously screwed up perspective on AIDS.
On the one hand, the idea of Paul Bettany playing an angel with automatic weapons is very hot. On the other hand the jerky stop-motionesque animation in the red band Legion trailer is exactly the sort of movement I find the creepiest in horror flicks. Other than the swarming sea of rats.
BT - definitely not the 2nd one. I love that movie and saw it multiple times.
It is the Alien movie where an alien gets in a cat or dog and the alien comes out looking extra weird as a result. Washed out colors. Not the aliens with Wynona Ryder.
