I don't cry much during movies, but "Remains of the Day" with Anothony Hopkins and Emma Thompson gets me every time, the 1939 version of "Wuthering Heights" with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon is a killer too, but the scene in "Monster" where Aileen is nearly killed is by far the most painful.

I do!

Perhaps the dialogue problems stem from translation? I dunno, but I completely disagree, especially when compared to the writing on such hit t.v. shows as Lost and Heroes.

This entire thread made me so happy, I felt like I just got a hug from the internet.

I heard Mormon chicks are easy, if that adds to the conversation at all.

'Please Kill me!
Can't that be the whole groups catch phrase? It would make this shows existence more palatable.

If my local used book stores start going out of business I'll consider getting one, but until that day it's .25-2.50 per book, can't beat that price.

Yea totally the idea is cool, but it just doesn't make a lot of sense for me. And I'm still of the 'prefer the the aesthetics of a book' mind. Frankly too much reduction makes something that was already simple overly-complicated.

Well Ridley Scott did make that 'Zelda' movie in the 80's, but yea the idea of 'Monoply' being a movie is an incredibly frustrating concept to grasp.

@OTP Whether or not that was an intended reference to Turin Turamber from the Silmarillian, I enjoyed it thoroughly.

I just had some horrific "Talladega Nights" flashbacks thanks to that article.

"I was wary upon hearing about this musical, but if they can score Nathan Lane to play Peter Parker, Bjork as Mary Jane, and Larry David as J. Jonah Jameson, I know everything will be fine. Oh, and Vangelis composing the all synth score."

Ubik is fantastic.

Good work on both the Cruises and the scotteb, made me chuckle quite heartily.

Meh there's worse out there. It's a film I would see with someone who wasn't that into film in the first place. A nice in-between that's what Apatow's films are.

Catcher in the Rye was one of the most important books I read while in high school. I had never had the feeling that a book was written for me until I read that. And I think, as far as literature is concerned, that's quite an achievement even if it isn't his "best" book.

@Evil
It's a cheesy horror film from Ireland, I'd highly recommend it for some B-movie larfs.

I thought Theodore Rex was the sequel to Rawhead Rex.

@Zeroes

There's a cute name for dispensing that circular logic it's called an "Object lesson" which is mostly a bunch of implied metaphors and half truths.
Fuck I'm bitter.
