Lay your orbs on this.

I've been waiting on this one for a long time. To be honest I haven't felt such anticipation for a film since Silence of The Lambs. If Brian Depalma stays faithful to the book by James Ellroy it's going to be an incredible movie. Here's a link to the trailer (hope it works, links and such are not my forte').

Hey!

Does anyone now the serie "Scrubs"?

I love it! I really love it

I have every relay/scale (dont know which is right) of it at home, and i would guess seen it about 8 times....great!

But in germany they havent send the end of the 3rd relay/scale!!! Only in austria, but thats nearly no difference for me

I heard in USA they have sent the 5th scale/relay, so I have something I can wait for

cya

edit: oh, i looked up in a dictionnarie...the word i searched was "season/series", for scale/relay

Has anyone else seen this yet? I went on opening day and loved it. The story isn't the strongest, but this is the kind of movie where you expect it. The humor in the movie is great. The donkey scene in the movie was a little predicable, but still very funny.

What a neato idea! Who couldn't use an extra thou? I saw the contest listed for the first time today.

I wish I'd known before now how great Netflix is. My wife is finally on board. I'm loaded up with about 14 movies and I have it set pretty much so we both get a movie in the mail (I mean one for my tastes and one for hers).

I enjoyed M. Night Shyamalan's "Lady in the Water." It was slow going at first, and I'm not going to say anything about the plot. Suffice it to say, I went without reading any reviews or summaries or seeing anything more than its trailers.

"Lady in the Water" was not what I expected. It was .... sweet. Some folks in the theater applauded. The adults and children with whom I saw it liked it. It's different, that's all I'll say. I think his movies are always worth watching.

I have the feeling that "Lady" will be seriously panned by many on this board, but I enjoyed it overall.

I enjoyed "My Super Ex-Girlfriend." Luke Wilson was terrific. Uma Thurman made a gorgeous superheroine, hot, wild and crazy, emphasis on crazy. And wonderful suprise for me, the fabulous Eddie Izzard stars as well. He was somewhat restrained, but I'd rather have a restrained Eddie than no Eddie at all. New York City looks great, too.

This movie is light, funny, likeable summer fluff. Given the way it ended, I smell sequel.

25 Cinematic Cliches I Never Wanna See Again by Robin Bougie

25. That in period pieces, vintage cars are always freshly polished, painted, and clean. They never have scratches, dents or any signs of use.

24. Every time we’re introduced to a police precinct house, one or more colourfully dressed prostitutes are being brought in while bickering with their arresting officer.

23. Chinese food takeout in a movie always comes in those little white boxes, which I have never, in my life, seen chinese food arrive at my door in. I desperately want it to, but it never does.

22. If a bar or clubhouse has a pinball machine, it’s gonna get fucking trashed during a fight scene. (I’ve ALWAYS wanted my own pinball machine, so this one makes me wince)

21. That it’s only after the detective has been suspended (and obligatorily forced to place his badge and gun on the lieutenant’s desk) that he can properly crack the case.

20. That in war, only the enemy (usually the Viet Cong) were ever low-down enough to stoop to using booby traps.

19. People being chased by a car who run top speed down the middle of the street instead of simply ducking somewhere where a car can’t follow, which happens to be pretty much anywhere except the middle of the street.

18. Young gorgeous women constantly falling in love with men much, much older than they are. In other words: Fuck you Jack Nicholson and Clint Eastwood.

17. Chess players are always always brilliant, charming, upper class people, while card players are always sneaky, foul mouthed, and prone to cheating.

16. When an innocent cough is always a symptom of terminal illness.

15. Women that never have enough sense to keep running while being chased by an enemy unless a guy is pulling her along by her hand or wrist — despite the fact that this takes them far below the speed either one could go on their own.

14. That somehow singing in a moving vehicle always makes something terrible happen.

13. If someone dies with their eyes open, someone will close them by effortlessly moving their hand over the deceased face — and they will remain tightly shut.

12. If our protagonist goes to a sporting event, no matter who he is, his face will always end up on the fucking jumbotron.

11. Women that don’t sweat during sex.

10. That every helicopter shutting down emits the chirp-chirp-chirp sound, in spite of the fact that only the Bell 47G (the chopper on MASH) actually makes this noise.

9. If a hero is divorced (and most are), that he’ll have some contact with his ex-wife who will still have strong feelings for him even if she’s remarried.

8. All computer keyboards or control panels have thousands of volts just underneath their surface, and their malfunctions are indicated by a puff of smoke and a cartoonish shower of sparks.

7. That Native Americans invariably have mystical knowledge that can obtusely predict the future, or have a fundamental understanding of all things in nature .

6. That when a phone line is broken unexpectedly, someone will always frantically press the phone cradle button and yell “Hello? HELLO!?” with an emphasis on the second hello.

5. A splash of cold water in face will render the most inebriated person stone cold sober in a faction of a second. I’ve tried it. It doesn’t work.

4. When someone yells “You never backed away from everything in your life, now fight!!” while giving someone CPR or working to resuscitate a stopped heart.

3. Girls are always instantly attractive to every male if they take off their glasses and/or let down their hair, never mind that they were totally gorgeous actresses failing to physically portray a nerd in the first place.

2. Children or retards that are wise beyond their years/capabilities and that humble the adults around them.

aaaand: (Drumroll)

1. Dogs who always know who is evil, and bark at them.

Amy is a nurse sent from London to help transfer young patients out of Mercy Falls Children's Hospital, which is closing after a century of service. Immediately, Amy and the kids sense something dangerous in the air and, to protect them, she must face her fears and a nasty truth: The threat is far more sinister and dangerous than suspected; a terrifying evil has returned from the past. The only one key to the mystery is a little girl patient Maggie who knows about "Mechanical girl". Maggie says "Mechanical girl is in up stair".....

If you liked "Darkness" and "The Nameless", you won't be disappointed by "Fragile". You dislike them? Well, don't worry, "Fragile" is scary than them. :eek: "Fragile" is not a horror movie with bloody and gore, but it's really scary. Because it's painful. Yes, you'll feel pain. The movie's start is very slow but after 30 minutes or so, it comes fast and I assure you'll jump out of your seat a couple of times. It's feels like Japanese horror movies. So if you like "Ju-On" and "Ringu", you'll like also "Fragile". Actress, Calista Flockhart was awesome. I know, I know she was Ally McBeal, but believe it or not, her act is best in this movie ever. Alejandro Amenabar and Jaume Balaguero, they are best modern Spanish film makers. I'm looking forward to their next movies.
