I'm thinking of the scene with the black dragon fish as the main scary
one, pesonally.

Vegetarian sharks? hahahahaha. I really hope that the irony was intentional.

Saturday is this year's silent movie with live orchestra accompaniment
at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor. The movie is "Pandora's Box,"
1929. Louise Brooks is a German flapper whose sexuality destroys
all the men who fall for her: and then she meets Jack the Ripper.
(Don't know if we'll get to go, our schedule is kind of crowded...)

The main comment I have about Finding Nemo is that I'm totally amazed at the
computer graphics. Constantly moving underwater ocean currents... Etc.
See it just for that, even if you're a gr'up. :-)

Interestingly enough, "Finding Nemo" was compared to "Spirited Away"
in some critique somewhere (MSNBC, perhaps). Unfair and unflattering,
but I mentioned it so I could reference this particular film. I
saw "Spirited Away" at a gaming convention-- most of it, anyway, and I
thought it was one of the most fabulous animes I have seen. It's
subtitled, and not dubbed, which I think is a good thing.

The version of "Spirited Away" that I just watched was dubbed. The dubbing
worked, as near as I could tell. Good movie.

Watched Vanilla Sky. What I want to know is why did he splice his life from
that particular point, why not from earlier when he met Sophia, and everything
was great and he hadn't had his accident yet

He was just LION to himself.

Hey, Tim! Puns! Come and get'em! B-)
Caught The Core at the dolar theater Saturday. Kind of a cross 'tween
Armagedden<sp> and Journey to the Center of the Earth. Basically,
another doomed Earth movie. The Earth's core has stopped spinning and
a group is sent waaaaaaaay down under to "jump-start" it. Those into
Earth science will have a field day ripping this one apart.
Nothong outstanding about this file, IMO. Didn't recognize any of the
actors, effects, while good, were std. for today's films, characters
were two-dimensional...All-in-all, a pretty predictable flick.
Certainly not worth $8.50, but good for a buck.

re 242: Those with a brain will have a field day ripping it apart, I should
think.

It was fun though. (But the very first thing the hero says in the movie is
wrong.)

Saw "The Matrix: Reloaded" yesterday.
Great visuals, but the rest was pretty weak. Everything, every element, could
have been cut about 50% and it would have tightened things up a lot.
Well, except for Agent Smith. What a cool character...

Smith is quickly becoming one of my favorite villains. It's only a slight
pity that Hugo Weaving's complete submersion in the character will result in
every viewing I have of any LOTR movie to echo of "You are a disease" quotes.

resp:245 I saw it last Friday and I completely disagree with just
about everything negatory anyone else has said, but then I'm a epic
sci-fi/fantasy nut and I therefore don't put the expectations on it
that others might. Tighter editing? Nope, sorry, I don't see it.
Call me intensely visual; I was soaking up every minute of it? It was
just eye candy? Hmmm, yes, I enjoy philosophical debate, but I see
the Matrix as an epic work and so I expect a typical formula. Of
course I was ready for some more butt-kicking. And actually, the
discussion seemed deep enough to me-- it's all in how you look at it.
It just reminds me of I time I watched "Farewell My Concubine" with a
philosophy major and she said she didn't get it when it was over. It
made perfect sense to me.

i thought the last 20 minutes of the film could've sucked a little less.

The Matrix's formula for pseudo-deep conversations.
Introduce a topic.
Have some character bring the topic up to Neo.
Neo looks confused (he does this well).
Neo asks a question about what he's going to do, or should do.
Character invalidates Neo's question, by saying he's already done it
or should have figured it out before all this.
Rinse. Lather. Repeat.

Sometimes, I just think that Sean Penn should have trademarked, "Dude."

Looking confused is pretty much Keanu Reeves's only talent as an actor.

I have a good idea he's smarter than people think. And lord knows, he's a
fine looking man. I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crackers. Heck,
I'd feed him crackers.
