Has anyone seen Run Lola Run? It is fabulous. Even if you don't enjoy foreign films, you will like it. Or else.
yup! Really good, and different. What's the actress' name though. She was also in the Borne Identity and Borne Conspiracy. Oh yeah, Franka Potente, (okay, so I just looked it up

) Got to see it.

She was brilliant immediately. I highly recommend Heavenly Creatures. I believe it's the film that got Peter Jackson the support he needed to move on to LOTR.
Plus, she's not afraid to get naked, if the role demands it. That's artistically awesome.

Steve Wynn was reported to have reacted by swearing out loud, and later saying he was glad he, and not someone else, was responsible for the damage. Among the guests present when this happened were Barbara Walters, Nora Ephron, ad Louise Grunwald, widow of Henry Grunwald.

Sin City is based on a series of graphic novels. There are several more stories to adapt. In case you didn't notice, they're working in nonlinear time, so Marv's story will take place before he died.
Good sequels: Spiderman 2, Evil Dead 2 & 3, Superman 2, The Devil's Rejects, Aliens, Terminator 2.
Bad Sequels: Halloween III, Batman Returns, Batman & Robin, A Nightmare on Elm Street 2, Ocean's 12, Dumb and Dumberer, Superman III, IV, the list goes on and on.

Some of my favorites:
Beauty and the Beast
The notebook
phantom of the opera- although seeing it live on stage is better
the polar express

the sound of music
gone with the wind
These next few are thanks to my older brothers who like them.
young frankenstein

Johnny Cash: You've got me all revved up. Now I've asked you forty different ways and it's time you come up with a fresh answer.
June Carter: Please sing.
Johnny Cash: I'm asking you to marry me. I love you, June. Now I know I said and done a lotta things, that I hurt you, but I promise, I'll never do that again. I only want to take care of you. I will not leave you like that dutch boy with your finger in the dam.

Just in time for Halloween! I heard on the radio this morning an article about the top 10 scariest movie scenes. Here's what they said.
10 Most Haunting Movie Moments for Halloween
Selected by movie lovers in a BLOCKBUSTER survey.
1. "The Ring" Samara crawls out of the television
2. "Hannibal" Hannibal Lecter dines on Ray Liotta's
brain
3. "The Exorcist" Regan's upside down spider walk down the
stairs
4. "Blair Witch Project" The final chase through the abandoned
house
5. "Alien" The birth of the alien baby out of John
Hurt's chest
6. "The Exorcist" Regan's head spinning around backwards
7. "A Nightmare on Elm Street" An invisible Freddy Krueger drags his
victim across the ceiling.
8. "Poltergeist" Carol Anne announces "They're here!" in
front of a static TV
9. "The Shining" Danny encounters the murdered twins
10. "Seven" The "Sloth" corpse rises up
What do you guys think about this? I agree with the Exorcist/Shinning/Alien/Blair Witch but DEFINITLY not with the Ring being the #1 scare. Do you guys have any of your own scariest movie scenes?
