@Tilden that's from the seemingly most memorable scene in "Damien Omen II".

The Omen was most notable for its grisly, inventive death scenes. If you don't remember the scenes mentioned above, you definitely should see it again. I've never seen any of the Final Destination movies, but from what I know of them the comparison to The Omen above sounds apt. With no computers! Plus the awesome…

Yeah - the first time I saw the original we screeeeamed at that scene - definitely better.

With original v remake, are you talking about The Omen? I have to say, I liked them both about equally - probably not surprising since they were both films of the same screenplay.

Pirhana II - IIT stinks. Boring "bad" is, yes, just bad - "Valley of the Dolls" and "Exorcist II: The Heretic" also fall into this category for me - self-important, long and booooring. And badly acted - really nothing to recommend them.

My favorite Bond female is definitely Carole Buquet/Melina from "For Your Eyes Only". Beautiful, exotic, passionate, talented, and deadly!

Well I don't know about "hot and repulsive", but the WORST Bond girls by far were the American ones. Tiffany Case, that idiot CIA agent running around the jungle in "Live and Let Die", Tanya Roberts…and um…oh, I get it. "Hot". Those three did have totally amazing bodies, though I found them less "repulsive" than…

She sure looks a lot younger than I thought she'd look by now. She was Lorelle in the original Dreamgirls, in the early 80s. Whatever though, she can be ubiquitous as far as I'm concerned, I like her.

Aaaah, good, now I can sleep tonight.

Zombie question
Why are their lips always rotting off, but their eyeballs seem to be intact? Why?

Hm…thinking…I'm not sure I have any paperbacks at home, though it's a great idea.
Oh yeah…I have John Updike's "Problems" and Ray Bradbury's "The October Country". Nah…

Mifune's first English-language film was, I think, "Winter Kills". The director/writer had to severely pare his role because his command of the language and accent were so unuseable. This might have affected the other movies above also (seeming out of place and not sure what's going on).

@unholy, if by "combine forces" you mean "kiss", then I'm all for it. What could be manlier!

And oh jeez, I read that Enquirer story linked. It seems that she put on 75 lbs!!!!!! So now she weighs maybe 180 lbs? She used to be built like a flute! And unless I misread the article, the writer says in there that s/he got a lucid interview with Ms Duvall.

@idiot: Assuming the aliens are weighty. They might be little tiny outer space spores, like in Philip Kauffman's "Invasion of the Body Snatchers".

@Bucky - I completely agree. A lot of people didn't like how different the characters were in the movie from the book, and that's understandable, but it's a great example of the same story being told by two very different storytellers. Kubrick's Jack Torrance is a dry drunk who hates his family from the get-go -…

I'm not disagreeing, idiotking - definitely not. "Mary Tyler Moore" was pretty perfect from the get-go, and just got better. "Cheers" was also a winner from out of the gate.

Yeah it's interesting to watch the earliest episodes of some classic shows. "The Dick Van Dyke Show", for instance, definitely had some growing to do, though it was very good from the beginning. Laura especially was a standard sitcom housewife at first - pretty, smart, but primarily a foil for Rob to bounce off of. …

A friend just admitted that sometimes he sings to his cat Lucy, to the tune of "Springtime for Hitler":

Well then, who wouldn't be "pleased" to announce their wedding to you.
