Alright - has a film ever made you cry. And I don't mean as in "Lost in Space: The movie" which admittedly made me want to cry at havin wasted 2 hours of my life having to sit through it. I mean, sad cry.

For me, it was "Awakenings" Robert De Niro after waking up from being in a sort of coma for years and years and seeing his mum for the first time got me. Think I was quite depressed at the time anyway!

Good news, I found the BBC America channel last night

so...when is Trailer Park Boys on?

skywalker · 11-16-2005, 10:46 PM

Apparently, BBC is no longer airing Trailer Park Boys due to threats from the FCC.

Thanx Don! It's a gray wolf, a beast of an animal. What's your husky's name?

Syriana looks like a great movie: Trailer

thedon · 11-18-2005, 05:58 PM

my dogs name is nikki.....lol, i was in the gym this morning and all of a sudden the theme of the trailer park boys came on....it was funny cuz alot of people there haven't seen the show and they are were like what is this **** lol

skywalker · 11-20-2005, 02:55 PM

Finally saw Kill Bill Volume 2 yesterday. I really didn't like the first one so I never really got the urge to see the second one. Man did I miss out, this film is totally different and IMO a masterpiece, right up there with Pulp Fiction. Uma Thurman kicks major *ss and should've gotten an Oscar for this role, so much emotion. Pai Mei is da man!

thedon · 11-20-2005, 05:26 PM

lol...then tarintino made hero....what a mistake that was

shorty · 11-20-2005, 07:39 PM

that new tarantino movie looks good, the one where they cut off the guys toes with a chain cutter

Rocky · 11-21-2005, 04:18 PM

^^What one's that?

Also, Tarantino didn't make "Hero" he just "presented" it. It was the only way to get it released outside of Asia if it was attached to a big name. It was done by Zhang Yimou who did 'House of Flygin Daggers' - I thought they were cool!

shorty · 11-21-2005, 07:21 PM

not sure what its called but i saw the preview for it when i watched saw 2

thedon · 11-26-2005, 04:40 PM

Rocky · 11-26-2005, 04:44 PM

^^ Does look damn good! The film I mean...
The second Underworld film looks pretty sweet aswell!

thedon · 11-27-2005, 11:22 PM

has anyone seen cinderallia man?....i heard that was a great boxing movie

thedon · 11-30-2005, 12:11 AM

how the **** can usher get his own movie...."in the mix"

Rocky · 11-30-2005, 07:14 AM

Well after his awesome work in Oscar nominated films such as "She's all That" and "The Faculty" it was about time!

Rocky · 11-30-2005, 07:15 AM

Actually - I did like The Faculty.

I hear Fiddy cent wants to do more films too. Great...

Q80_MuscleHed · 12-21-2005, 02:47 AM

guys ?? has anyone seen "the Exorcism of Emily Rose" .. did u think it's a true story ?

Rocky · 12-21-2005, 05:44 PM

Based on a true story apparently! The reviews of it reckon it's crap - but I like the look of it. I like those sort of films.

Saw King Kong on Monday - ****ing awesome! Bit slow starting but when it kicks in it's cool!

Saw a trailer for Mission Impossible 3 too - that looks really sweet!
Those films get better each time!
