Damn, iice. You've got a lot of catching up to do.

hiya. do any of you guys collect or read movie scripts? Warner just put up the script for TDK just in case.

Did anybody here see The Secret Life of Bees? Or The Wrestler? I need the heads-up.

Stay you.

Dunno nothing about those movies. I've been catching up with movies I'm supposed to have seen so I don't even know about new movies much. What's up, Spikyn?

Well all the ones I got I got for free and the TDK one is being offered online as a free for download .pdf.

yep, it Aronofsky. I was asking about The Wrestler because it's being rumoured as an Oscar contender. I'll try to track it down sha. The Secret Life of Bees was billed as a contender as well but I guess it didn't resonate as well as it could've.

'sup vesc? I dey o, any successes with the oldies? say, d'you actually own a Wii? no pun intended.

Saw the pre-air for a show called 'Leverage', pretty nice in a 'Hustle' sort of way. And I'm just getting into 'The Mentalist' and 'Eleventh Hour'. The first few episodes are cool.

you are as welcome as always.

11th Hour has Fringe like scenarios but it's more broad and eclectic as in it's not limited only to diseases etc

And I'm adding this link just in case you're interested in Oscar 'For Your Consideration' campaigns.

oi vesc. Seems our little war is going to have to go into cryostasis. I've mightily pissed off some self-servicer in the computer section and now he wants my blood. Can't fight a two-front war, can I?

Twilight, who's seen it?


Ps: can't somebody rein in Jason statham? Transporter 3!? Seriously, I ask you!

Hey I prefer Steven Spielberg.http://www.BizInfo1.com/?ix=4455

@Spikyn, dude, thanks a lot. I'm loving the script. It's accurate too. If you've got any more, please PM me with em.

@Ex, aww man, tis too darn bad. With the power issues in this country, our lil WAR will thaw and become all gooey and bleeped up. We'll have to invent another cause to bicker.

And, Spikyn, I do not really own a Wii. I just said so to lead Ex on. He's a sucker for a chance to yab me.

U forget u r as incognito as Spikyn is

Don't y'all worry, I'll be ur medium. Who wants to play dead?

do enjoy, I have and do 

iice:

we know how trailers can be deceiving

point proved with Minority Report and Existenz.

@Ex: How was the Minority Report trailer deceptive?

@iice: glad to've helped your relief

I saw Burton's POtA and felt it was ok and modernistic (if such a word existed), Tim Roth creeps me out as himself. . . LOL

My favourite Terminator was/is T2 and I'd really like to see TS knock it off but the director gives me little hope.

@ vesc

cause to bicker? isn't your supposed intelligence reason enough?

@ spikyn


Minority Report trailers gave the impression of being all action and chase chase chase. it turned out to be turkey on the action and disjointed on the chase.

The re-release na for Oscar glory o! But I guess it'll also help it hit the $1b box office takings too.

Hancock 2? I'd really have liked to see the original cut of the one we got in the cinemas but I guess you can always run with the concept abi?

Superman is badly in need of a reboot, I guess it's going to depend on the director that gets picked but if it's still Singer then the guy should look back to his indie days for inspiration.

@ Ex, I finally see your point, very valid in misrepresentation kinda like Hancock but I do think most people don't get the movie as the ending was ambiguous like mad,

@iice


the last supe flick was darn spectacular enough. it just wasnt endearing, trying too hard to be like spidey, as in gooey love story, human frailty yada yada.

Note to brian singer: the most powerful being on the planet, so powerful the only qualifying adjective is "super" (not red-blue man, or hero guy, or cap'n capes etc), customarily tears things apart and evil limb from limb.

you on the other hand used him to make a sleeping pill.

next iteration, please give your script writer some Red Bull.

for truth, where vesc go?

Oscars are in January?! Hmmm, guess we're hoping for a post-Oscar boost. On that note, the Academy don reverse their decision to ban the OST of TDK so their probably expecting it'll win or they've heard all the raking going on on the 'net.

Superman was a 7/10 and that was being generous. It required you to have seen Richard Donner's first 2 movies and read the movie prequel comics to even begin with and then like Ex pointed out Superman's struggle should be how to be human in spite of his powers (the guy can take over the world all by himself!) and while his pining for a human chick is fine, having an offspring is not. The storyline would've worked perfectly as a comic-book arc but not as a mainstream Superman story.

@ Did you ever see the Marvel vs DC skits online? They're brilliant! Do check them out.

Very interesting read y'all! I've still not seen Superman. I want to keep it that way. My fingers are crossed for TDK. To me, it's a no-brainer but the Academy has surprised me on more than a fair number of occasions.

I hate that the list is this long. I just saw a movie that blew me away. Plus I absolutely didn't hear anything about it until I saw it. It's called Surf's up. Surf's up is now like my #4 favorite animation.

If I were the peeps at the academy, I'd cut that list to, Cloverfield. Every other thing is so so to me. Even Spielberg's (I say this with utmost reluctance)
