Saw King Kong last night. Very good for the most part, funny in bits, but strains the credulity at times too, even with the brain in the off position.
It took a tad long to take off though, it was at least an hour before we got to Kong.

anyone seen madagascar?

i just watched shrek 2 yesterday,for like..,the sixth time:D
I've seen it. Not as good as I expected it to be. The animation is great though. The story leaves you wanting more and gives you a feeling of incompletion.

Shrek 2 is kick arse though! Can't help but love Donkey and Puss!

Elephant.
Is that the one inspired by the Columbine incident of shooting in school? If so, what did you think?

Personally, I liked it. Van Sant is good at what he does, if not the best. He is good.

Good movie.

The character in your avatar, is that the one from 'Clockwork Orange'? Looks like it. I'm not sure though.

The last movie I saw is Casablanca. And I only regret I ignored it for so long. Bogart was certainly a great actor. Bergman wasn't much compared to what Bogart was in that movie.

Next on my list is Seven Samurai.

Elephant was great. Its the second time that i watch it and i understand it a lot.
Sant goes I occupy a brilliant way of filming the characters. He films them of behind, then of some form your you follow them to his destiny. You transform in an invisible spy following the characters to his destinty of death, really fantastic.

And yes, is from Clockwork Orange.

Watched yesterday evening the movie called Terminal(hanks and zeta jones).

And now i just wanted to say my opinion about it and those who have seen it, feel free to argue with me...

First, the starting looks nice and interesting....man comes to airport and because of those political problems he cant visit america....it really looks interesting....you like start to think, what the hell he can do now.....

But something is weard.....in the end we see that he only visit New York because he had made a promise to his father that he will collect some singers autographs......
But cant he then atleast call to his advocate....(if he has money to visit NY, he has to have a advocate.....instead of that he tried to call to his family members....(although i didnt undestand whom, because he didnt had wife...so parents i guess)

And why the personal of the airport doesnt want to help him......the headman of the airport, whos played by Stanley Tucci doesnt want to help him at all....why? Hanks is a client and airport has to help his clients....

Hm, i just wonder, if i would go to NY and in the airport it happens that i have political problem in my country...cant i go to nowhere??? Shouldnt there be atleast some kind of solution....

----
The acting is ok....tom hanks usually plays well....but i have to say, even C Zeta-Jones plays well in this movie....

Ok, lets move on....so the man has nowhere to go and starts to live in the airport....some funny things happen there...but then i dont understand why zeta-jones caracter start to talk with him....and then it already looks like they are having a very nice time together....they even had lunch in that same airport and hug and etc(LOL; hanks built her a fountain)....so i already started to think that in the end of the movie they are gona leave both the airport and i dont know, maybe even ...get married or go together somewhere.....because in a way why the heck ZJ caracther should be interested on someone from east europe who acts a little bit funny and isnt very goodlooking and well not his type if i say it correct.....(its weard that she sayd his almoust 40 in the movie, although she was 35 that time and actually looked even younger)....
But when the movie starts to end, we see hanks taken a taxy when he finaly got out of the airport to met that singer, and then we see ZJ coming to airport with a taxy....they say something (like, you finaly got out or something like that) and move on...hanks gets his autograph and the movie ends?????

I dont understand why the writers had to make that little love story in this movie and when the movie ends...we still dont see what happens between those two, because there was times when hanks was waiting her already in the door to come from plane....but the end....i dont know...why you had to make this little love story if you doesnt show how it ends....they dont even say something like, i live in europe, you in america...we cant be together or something like that.....

I know, you might say, the movie wasnt about that...it was about a man who couldnt visit america because of his homecountry political problems and he had to live in the airport then....but why you even show that hanks-jones thing then.....this movie could have been funny without that also....like everybody is against him or something like that..........that thing really turned this movie down....

And in the end, still....who the hell goes to new york because to get a autograph...i am sure he could get the autograph also by just sending a letter or telegraph to that singer......

I think spielberg made a mistake in this movie....he has made mistakes also before.....

I dont know....catch me if you can with hanks was a very good movie imo, also funny and good story....this also looked like a interesting story in the begining, and had some nice jokes, but that stewardess and traveler little story...i dont know...they should have showd then how their story would end....but they didnt....
