Accelerated, Natalie Portman in not THAT attractive - not in that picture anyway! She's soooo girly. LOL And I don't like her all-innocent smile. But I DO like what she's wearing in that picture.

Accelerated Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Jugg have you ever seen Natalie Portman without makeups ? Waassshhh... No I havnt LOL, she was cute as kid, but she has become pretty average, probabaly thats why she hasnt starred in a any movies after Star Wars: Episode 2. Natalie Portman in not THAT attractive - not in that picture anyway! She's soooo girly.

Guest Fadi Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Well I am kind of into girls..... We know all that, but shish she looks like a child with that look, not a woman.

THOTH Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Dan, Gamovour - you should notice that both Blade Runner and Brazil are on my list! I have the full Criterion 4(?) disc set of Brazil that Gilliam released with the three different versions of the film - released (cut) version, the version the studio wanted (with the happy ending...truly surreal) and Gilliams original (long) cut (the one to truly watch)...I also have the book about the controversy with him and the stusio. He is (one of) my heros(s)! And of course Blade Runner is taken from the Phillip K Dick story - "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" - Dick being one of my fav authors as well (RIP) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 (edited) Dan, Gamovour - you should notice that both Blade Runner and Brazil are on my list! Oh! My bad! LOL. Was just skimming through the replies, and since yours was in a paragraph, I noticed some of the movie titles while didn't catch the Blade Runner one. I haven't read "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" But I will do so soon. I'm not a big fan of written sci-fi. I just love watching sci-fi movies, and Blade Runner is my favourite sci-fi movie, up till now. VERY meaningful, unlike some of the "great" movies we're being shown... I am yet to find a soundtrack of the Blade Runner movie by Vangelis. And oh, I know some people absolutely HATE Titanic and laugh at me when I tell them I love it, but I really think it's a good movie. It's not that I like the theme, I like the cinematography and the way the story is told. VERY creative. I also like Pearl Harbor (some cute guys in it LOL ) The Shawshank Redemption is also a good one - I love the ending. Hmmmm, I'm trying to decide whether Blade Runner should come first on my list of best movies or The Thin Red Line. But I think I'm gonna go with The Thin Red Line. It's a MUST see!!!

Dan Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 (edited) Well I am kind of into girls..... Well, ummmmm, OK, but she's still not attractive. She doesn't look mature. Like, I'd say Juliette Binoche is beautiful, despite her age, but Natalie Portman?!! Domino hasnt spanked me yet - LOL Oh, Domino, where art thou?

vava Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Domino, since you speak french, I think you'll get a kick out 'le Diner des Cons' It is absolutely hilarious. I nearly wet my shorts.hehe, i think i saw this one too.isn't it about a group of friends who want to make an idiot out of someone? Yeah Harut, - that's the one... The idea is, a group of friends have a dinner party, and each one is to invite a 'con' (an idiot). They all get together and laugh at the expense of the idiots - and of course the person who brings the biggest idiot, wins! Edit: Sorry Domino, I didn't realise you had already posted the synopsis!

vava Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 For you Sci-Fi fans... What about Gattaca, with Uma Thurman and what's-his-name... Very stark and beautifully filmed. Jude Law also plays a great role. One of my favourite recent movies... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 What about Gattaca, with Uma Thurman and what's-his-name. You mean Ethan Hawke? He's a good actor. Cruel Intentions is a good one too - starring Ryan Phillippe. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamavor Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Thoth, I haven't seen the short version, but the whole point (actually there are so many points:)) of this movie is exactly as it was initially conceived by the director. As far as I remember the viewer had the right to choose the ending. Brazil is not just a movie. It is a piece of art, science, sociology, ecology, history, philosophy, and anything else that is part of human and unhuman life and even beyond that. I remember reading some critiques about the movie and all the "professional" movie goers and experts were just speechless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THOTH Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Gamavor - understood...! Vava - yes Gattaca is indeed a good one. The concept of genetic selection (and discrimination etc) is not so far off....in fact...(I have it as well on DVD..no surprise realy - I have nearly ever decent Sci-Fi movie...and many more...but Sc-Fi is just my thing...)

Sip Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Three movies which have really made me think: 1) The Truman Show2) Matrix3) Quiz Show People often get distracted by all the cool visual effects of Matrix but I thought the plot really kicked arse. Matrix 2 is coming out very soon and from what I saw from the trailer, it's going to be extremely spectacular in terms of effects but the plot didn't strike me as having anything too new ... just a bunch of ultra-cool fight scenes.

nairi Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 So many movies, and so little time to watch them... You guys listed some movies I should seriously get down to watching only because I've never heard of them. One of my cousins lent me Gattaca and The Matrix almost two years ago. I started watching them but never got passed 20 minutes. I guess I should try again... I watched The Beach on TV last night. Hmmm. Not sure whether I liked the book or movie better... I guess both had good scenes and bad ones. Overall I didn't like either very much... I also watched this Austrian movie called Nogo, which was captivating, IMO, until the very end, except the very very end, which I found a little disappointing. Just now, I finished watching Analyze This for the second time. Cute, but, aye... no, definitely not a fav. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azat Posted April 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 I agree with Nairi on both Gattaca and The Matrix. I have only seen few minutes of each and could not stand the pain of watching more. Thoth, did you ever see "A Fish Called Wanda". I found it to be a great movie as well. Somewhat Pythonesc.

Thoth, did you ever see "A Fish Called Wanda". I found it to be a great movie as well. Somewhat Pythonesc.The Matrix doesn't really start to make sense until the very ends. But you have to have enough patience to put up with Keanu's bull-shit acting and the really fancy razzle dazzle special effects ... I personally thought the plot was very thought provoking ... of course there are details that are just there for the drama/excitement factor. Nairi, I would recommend you start with South Park. That movie is simply brilliant and I don't think it got the acclaim it really deserved. People just look at it as a dumb cartoon but it's obvious there is some brains behind it! Impressive stuff ... of course they did give into some stupid cliche's like the tired old Bill Gates bashing. ... but the first time I saw it, I literally cried at the "shut your f***ing face uncle f***er" musical number. I didn't even see the second half ... basically the part after the canadian traffic cop starts farting to the music. Anyway, it may sound like it's just childish immature stuff but there is a lot more going on than just the superficial fart jokes and foul language.

THOTH Posted April 13, 2003 Report Share Posted April 13, 2003 Azat - of course - A Fish called Wanda is an excellent movie and it includes Micheal Palin and John Cleese from Python...(I was just laughing about this very movie with some friends the other day...the scenes where palin is killing the ladies dogs and he is such an animal lover...and the character (Jamie Curtis's Brother)..forgot his name (great actor)..."I'm not stupid" etc...reading Nietche etc... And I was hooked on the Matrix from second one and think it was a great movie (can't wait for the sequels)...and if one cannot get inot Gattica then one just lacks an appreciation for some of the very real potential dangers of/in our future...though I guess I could understand someone finding the movie a bit slow...but I thought it was well acted and presented and that the subject matter was/is very relevant...
