Slightly freakish River Tam (Serenity) clip HERE. Go have a look! I want Serenity now!! *Sulk*

So many good movies on the way, the wait is just to long.

 

I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind yesterday. Except for the fangirl complaint that Elijah Wood wasn't in ot nearly enough, I really liked it. Wasn't expecting to, to be honest. I liked it a whole lot better than Adaptation and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind as I found those two to be pretty heavy movies. This is the most "light hearted" Charlie Kaufman creation I've ever seen.

There's not really that much I can say about this movie, I recommend people to see it, that's it.

 

Might go shopping with [livejournal.com profile] beluga  today... and mom tomorrow. Don't really feel the need for anything, but will have to see if I find anything... another pair of shoes might not hurt.

[livejournal.com profile] isil80  and [livejournal.com profile] beluga  coming over on Sunday... watching more 21 Jump Street. I'm not the biggest fan in the world, but it's kind of fun to get back in to the 80's frame of mind.

The only movie I've seen of his was a rom-com, i didn't see it all, it was on tv, called Leopold and Kate I think.

That's one of the better rom-coms. I'm not big on Meg Ryan though.

I think she's ok at that kind of role...I heard she's not nice in real life though!

[identity profile] roguem.livejournal.com 2005-08-18 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
No, that's kind of the reason why I can't enjoy her on screen.

yeah, I used to think Jude Law was cool, but in his real life he seems a bit, yuck, so I'm kind of going off watching his movies because of that. Weird!

I've never been a big Jude fan, haven't seen to many of his movies.. but yes, he does seem kind of flaky.

He's a really good actor, but now it's hard to just watch his films without thinking about him cheating on his girlfriend and stuff. I guess that's he bad thing about the media, it makes it harder to just watch actors and not think about the real people...

I really liked him in 'Gattaca' come to think of it. But it's true, it's hard to separate the actor from the guy sometimes, especially when they act like assholes off camera. Half the reason I find it hard to watch Hugh Grant and Russel Crowe.

Yeah I really liked Gattaca too actually, that's one of my favourite films! I love sci fi :) I think it's really weird that Hugh Grant got caught with a prostitute and then he became really famous for being this loveable fop! *rolls eyes* People are strange! ;)

I'm not very big on sci-fi, kind of depends on how it's done to be honest, but I really liked Gattace and the idea behind it... Puts a new spin on the prejudice issue. Think movies like that help people think a little more about the world around them and how they react to things.

Yeah, I'm still can't understand that people filnd Grant all loveable after that whole hooker thing. People are strange indeed.

Yeah I only like the sort of sci fi like Gattaca, about cloning or genetic engineering and things like that, I don't like the shooting-in-space things so much, I liked Star Wars when I was younger but I'm a bit sick of it now...

I liked Star Wars, but I was first properly introduced to them in 2000 or 2001.. But I really liked them.. the old ones that is. And I love Firefly. It kind of depends on the cloning-movies, but then again I don't think I've seen to many of them.
