I strongly disliked the movie. And maybe it's because I saw some of myself in crazy robin williams...i'm right there on the edge man, don't push me πŸ˜›

and i would love to work with office space type people, that would be so much fun because they are so dorky ("uh, yeah...did you get that memo? Riiiiiiiight."

lol, et was good when you were eight, I just don't get how they keep dragging it back, they've competely run out of new ideas. Or maybe it's just that all their new ideas suck.

I hate overhyped movies, that leave me wondering, not about the story of the movie but how it got all of the hype that it did. Independence Day and The Blair Witch Project are a couple of examples.

Yeah. I was so turned off by the hype over "Titanic", I refused to watch it until almost a year after it premiered. lol. But (and I know everyone will groan in disgust), I actually really quite like the movie now. I didn't watch it twelve thousand times though, like some people. But it always makes me cry. And I didn't see anything wrong with Leonardo DiCaprio's acting job in it. I just think there's a lot of unfounded hostility toward the guy. And Kate Winslet was perfect for such a period piece. I just thought it was well done.

What I like about Blair Witch is that it was really a student film. I have to give those students some credit for being found. I didn't think Independence Day was that bad a movie. I've never seen Schindlers List... Wasn't it a book first?

Schindler was a real person. He was a womaninzing money grabbing no good bastard who saved the lives of thousands of jews. During wwII he was a contradiction in human kind. But its like one of the survivers of a death camp said we were dealing with the devil give us Oscar Schindler any time. The christians abandon us he saved us.

Schindler's List, as I recall, is a great movie, sort of an epic feeling to it. But, when I saw it, I was pretty young to actually be able to grasp it intellectually. I should rent it again, because I know that it's a great one, I just don't remember anything about the movie, except for this particular scene where there's some sex going on. Is that bad, that I only remember the sex? lol

still haven't seen Schindler's List but I want to. I was told by lots of people that Life is Beautiful is a more lighthearted/funny/romantic (none of the right words) film of the same quality and magnitude. I loved Life is Beautiful so if Schindler's List matches it I will be balling my eyes out and looking for hugs by the end of the movie.

Phoenix to remember sex in that movie is in its self a great epic thing of beauty. How does that mind work. Its like the time Den and I were having sex and I told her that she should paint the room. Did she get pissed you do not tell a woman her bedroom needs painting during sex.

Sweet mother of god, if the guy I was doing the horizontal tango with made any sort of comment about the decor of the room we were doing it in, you can be sure I'd be pissed too!! lol. You see, it's not the critical nature of commenting on the decor, it's the fact that you're supposed to be all about the you know what when you're doing you know what.

And P.S., I always remember the sex scenes in movies if they're any good. The only thing I remember about that movie "Nine and 1/2 Weeks" is all the sex (of course, that's primarily what the movie is about anyway)...just an example... πŸ™‚

WHOOOOOOOOOO great one I am sorry but we were not doing the horizontal tango it was the doggy thing not that it matters . But the walls were a bit off and being a capricorn I would have helped paint. It was just a passing comment.
