Slavery should have been gone by the time of the movie though, due to international pressure at least.

When people talk about movies today being made for adolescents instead of adults as being a problem, I think they're missing the mark. Teenagers make up less than 20% of theatergoers (http://www.laweekly.com/los… (and only half of that <20% are boys). Adults still make up the vast majority of theatergoers, and until

I'll defend "The Sixth Sense" here, not that I'm sure it really needs defending. To me, the twist is one of the least important parts of it. OK, maybe least important is stretching it, but to me the relationship between Cole and his mother is the absolute heart of the movie, and for me one of the best and most

Her phone scene in "Brokeback" is a knockout. You can pinpoint the split second when she realizes who she's talking to, and you can hear in your head the exact tone with which she mentally says, "Oh, I know who you are."

Shane's was a Blackberry, I believe. Greg had a coconut phone.

Great movie. Just two questions though.

In all fairness to Lynne Ramsay the most recent reports have implied that she left several days before filming, as was her right, after talks with production fell through. It was one of the producers who didn't tell anyone (including Natalie Portman) she had left until the first day of shooting, and then played the

Mia's soul counted as the fifth (or third chronologically). She did "technically" die. I don't think her coming back to life would necessarily change anything.

My mom refused to watch her show exactly because of the way she wore her hair.

Denise Richards' Colon, It's Complicated

This is probably going to sound corny or obvious, but there's a part in the film when Borchardt describes Northwestern as a portrait of a typical lower-class guy in that part of the country, and I remember thinking, "Well hey, in the end, he kind of did end up making a movie about that." It was just called American

Totally super late on this I know, but I wanted to point out that I just watched some of the extra scenes from the web site, and Ke$ha does actually brush her teeth with a bottle of Jack at one point. I know it was mentioned up thread that they didn't show her doing it on the show.

If it's any consolation to those bemoaning the movie's box office numbers, based on the foreign numbers it doesn't seem likely to make much more than a small profit overall. So while these numbers might look great, they're really just kind of "Ok."

I honestly don't remember what the cat was, so I can't respond to that point, and I'll freely admit that that might prove me wrong, but in my opinion if a movie takes place in "the real world," and there is no flat-out statement or incredibly strong implication* otherwise the movie is making a promise to the audience

The problem with real estate in New York is that there is not enough supply to meet the demand. I've only lived in New York since college, and I still don't know a lot about local issues, but here is what I think the problem is.

I disagree with the sentiment that you can't just expect a swap. In every season since swaps were introduced they have only ever been snubbed due to twists*, with two exceptions: Palau and Samoa. There's no reason at this point not to expect one. Sure anything can happen, but you can't account for every possible

Am I the only one who would consider S7 and S8 to be the real revival for 24? Yeah S5 was fun, but it didn't have as much depth as the first three seasons, and the writers got lucky that Gregory Itzin was able to flawlessly pull off  their ludicrous plot twist. It was still part of the whole "Jack Bauer Power Hour"

When I first saw "Signs" in the theater, I thought that there weren't actually any aliens and that it was all mass delusion. There's a part in the film where Gibson and Phoenix talk about faith, and not being religious myself I took the exact opposite approach as was intended and came to my completely offbase

Channing Tatum doesn't have to die for the main plan to work out. As long as the story gets out, the drug's stock would collapse and she could still get the money.
