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.
British actors have no concept of this. Think in Michael Caine in Blame it on Rio.
I believe it was about Jaws 3-D, when asked, he replied that he hadn't seen the film. But he had seen the beach house he bought with the paycheck and it was lovely.
Peter O'Toole did Club Paradise!
I LIKE CLUB PARADISE!
"You firemen are all alike. You like to drive fast, throw water on things, and leave a mess."
Oh, I love it, too! I just try to juxtapose Lawrence of Arabia with it and my brain gets bendy.
Though the vanquishing the enemy with your suit jacket is a scene I'm thrilled is included in each movie. So, very cool.
I haven't seen it but I can't help thinking it won't compare to the scene in the recent 2005 Jackie Chan movie,
The Myth.
Clever, hilarious, and made of the awesome.
I like the workmanlike approach a lot of British actors take. Christopher Lee has it, I heard him say, roughly, "They want me for a part, they'll pay me what I want, I'm an actor, it's what I do." Plus, mortgage payments.

It was Jaws the Revenge (aka Jaws 4). And it was the movie he was stuck making when he won his Oscar for Hannah and Her Sisters and couldn't be there to receive it. I think that was a turning point where his crap to gold ratio in roles started changing.
Tonight's DVD is Underworld 3.
Ah-ha! I was in the mood for a Big Dumb Movie tonight; I shall watch the first Underworld. (Also known as, hey StuntHusband, didn't we get stuck in that same plot during our LARPing days? Or rather, didn't we stand on the sidelines and make bitchy comments while other people toiled in that plotline during our LARPing days?)
I correctly guessed who no. 1 would be.
Heh. Me too.
Still, I'm pleased at the inclusion of the Illinois Nazis. ("Illinois Nazis. I hate Illinois Nazis.")

Me too!
Plus you gotta love the Illinois Nazi Pinto of Death.
