Nasty, I thought it was so extremely boring...the dialogue...I never felt any kind of connection between the two characters...nothing...everything about it was so boring...I just wanted it to end (kind of like sex w/ Joey).
Now, what did you like about it?
Gypsy, I thought the karaoke scene almost excused the millions of hours wasted on that particular pastime.
And as a woman who recently entered into such a disastrous and tragic marriage as yours and Joey's, I would have thought you'd empathized with a character who realizes just how wrong a decision getting married can be. . .
And Joey, you may never touch any of my monkeys.
Don't monkey with some other monkey's monkey, as the song says . . .

" joey, don't you think Murray should do something about his acne scars? I bet joshy has a great dermatologist in Florida. "
Yes my Princess , those acne scars of his have been bothering me for two and a half decades now . Murray is NOT a leading man , never will be , and has no right to play one on the big screen .
Where is William Holden when you REALLY need him ?
Fleabit , I saw " Open Range " last evening and LOVED it !!!
Now THAT is a real " Man's Man Movie " !!!!!!!!! Not the best Western that I have ever seen , but light years ahead of that crap movie " Lost in Translation "
NINEA ABS SHAE MONKEE !!!!!!!!

Man was that guy a great poster or what? What a use of the english language. Always fresh and crisp, direct, to the point. Insightful, cutting, always a kind word

OK, Joey, I understand the whole hatred of "Lost in Translation" thing was a sad ploy to get back in Gypsy's pants. But liking "Open Range" is just beyond comprehension, and I can't imagine ANY woman liking it - so whose pants are you trying to get into with THIS review?
I don't believe for a second that you liked this awful bit of offal. Neither Kevin Costner or Robert Duval had Chinese Eyes, for one thing. And don't you think they were doing "it" with the cute young Latino cowpoke who grew up eating "Cafe garbage"? Eeeeew! |

Fleabit , you are right : All the Best Cowboys DO Have Chinese Eyes !!!!!!
" Open Range " is not a bad movie ..................A solid B+ Western Flick . You were too harsh on Duvall and Costner ( who is now " dating " a hot twenty-nine year old model by the way ) .
.........as for the Latino Cowpoke , Well ................ , there WERE some gay overtones there ( sort of like listening to Pete Townshend's Rough Boys off his Masterpiece " Empty Glass " )

I saw "The Big Lebowski" on the weekend & it was "eh" & I really wanna see "Lost In Translation" as I'm a huge Murray fan. He's been robbed of Oscar afr too many times now. The middle-brow types in the Midwest find him dull. Go figure! |

I felt the same way about "The Big L", and that bothered me because I love the Coen Bros. I just really don't like Jeff Bridges much. The Coen's MADE me like George Clooney, but couldn't pull the same trick with Bridges. PLUS, how many botched kidnapping movies do they have to make?
I still think Joey's pulling my leg about LIT. Murray's brilliant in it and I will bet Joey a Janet Jackson ninja nipple star that he wins Best Actor Oscar. (Murray, not Joey.) |
|
glencar |
He's not pulling your leg. He wrote last week that he didn't like LIT. I must see it now as I've heard wildly divergent opinions about it. But first on my list if LOTR Part 3 in the theater. |
|
BILL PERKS |
I SAW LOST IN TRANSLATION AND AMERICAN SPLENDOR THIS WEEKEND AND THOUGHT BOTH WERE AVERAGE...NOT JUSTIFYING ALL THE ACCLAIM BOTH MOVIES HAVE GOTTEN..IT'S JUST THE STATE OF FILM TODAY |
|
FPM C10 |
Yeah, there's certainly a bit of THAT in my admiration for the movie - the fact that movies in general SUCK makes me over-react when I see something good. LIT is a smart little movie that Sophia Coppola made pretty much by herself, and I just really loved it. It's not the best film I've ever seen.
The way Murray took his regular schtick (especialy the karaoke scene) and turned it into something a little deeper was excellent.
Haven't seen "American Splendor" yet, but it sounds cool.
By all means, Glencar, see LOTR3 in a theater. It too is not the best film I've ever seen but it's up there, and from a guy POV the battle section is absolutely amazing. |

LOTR #3 was pretty good, although they should have rolled credits after the wedding... the last 20 minutes was too crammed, and the plot points didnt really matter because Jackson doesnt even include the scouring of the Shire, which is really the only reason to give a shit that Sam returns there and stays... but the movie is still solid; I happen to think the second was the best movie of the three...
true story: when I went to see the Big Lebowski in the theater, I went with my then-girlfriend. I thought the movie was absolutely hilarious, as did most in the theater (I still feel that way). when we came out, I was all smiles. I looked at my old lady and she was in tears... "What's the matter with you? you didnt like the movie..? what made you cry..?" She replied - "that guy just reminded me too much of you..." Needless to say, we didnt last much longer. fwiw, my wife says that indeed I do resemble the dude (for better or worse), but she also thinks the flick is classic. I obviously made the right choice...
The Dude is right - the Eagles f*cking suck!!!!

Bet Taken !
I once read where the movie that wins the Oscar for Best Picture reflects the social mood of the country .
Let's hope L.I.T. is nowhere to be found on the 29th .

The Oscars have nothing to do with shit. If Diane Keaton wins does that mean old lady nudity is the hot new thing? {{{{shuddering}}}} |

Yeah , he WAS pretty good at the lead vocals on THIS one :
I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind
And hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this - there is nothing
More than this - tell me one thing
More than this - there is nothing
It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like dream in the night
Who can say where we're going
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this - there is nothing
More than this - tell me one thing
More than this - there is nothing

I rented "Thirteen" today...it was very good. |

I just watched 'Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead'.
Good cast-Walken, Chris Lloyd, Buscemi. |
|
Martha |
I rented "Pirates of the Carribean" and "Seabiscuit"..but haven't gotten around to watching them yet....anyone seen either? Or Monster? Did anyone else see Monster?
I loved the Coen's brothers film..."Fargo". I never laughed so hard in a movie theater as I did when the two idiots (Buscemi and the Marlboro Man) are driving for hours in the car and not talking to one another. Priceless!
Joey, you don't REALLY like Kevin Costner movies do you????? |
|
Sir Stonesalot |
Martha....It's just another sad joey-ploy to get attention.
It's lucky for him that his pals see through that.
Otherwise we'd think he was quite gay. |

I have not - my wife saw it, and said it left her with a fucked-up feeling for days. She likened it to the way she felt after seing "Requiem for a Dream" (walking in expecting Pi 2). That movie was very weel done, but I felt like I had been beaten up when I walked out of the theater...
The Freidmans documentary is a trip, too. |

glencar |
I saw "Pirates of the Caribbean" & "Seabiscuit" in the theater & both were good. I preferred "Pirates" as "Seabiscuit" ended way earlier than the book. |

I've seen 21 Grams tonight. Excellent! What do you think? |

21 Grams was great. One of the best of last year. |

" Joey, you don't REALLY like Kevin Costner movies do you????? "
I like his women but not his movies .
Actually , " Open Range " is not bad ( thanks to Duvall ) and the music is conducted by none other than Michael Kamen ( R.I.P. )
Great Scenery too ( it was filmed in Alberta , Canada ) and the town was constructed right on - site .
I like how they shot the dog too .....................
