Oh, bubble (or anyone else)... I was going to add... feel free to PM me with more movie titles (if you'd like). I have a good list to start with, but I can always add to it!

finished mildred pierce. I had to play around with the dvd to get it to work better but I really liked it. I was ready to mommy dearest that daugther, veda. That must have been shocking in 45.

I watched the Lord of the Rings cartoon from 1978 tonight. I don't get it. It's kind of neat that it has Mr. Ollivander as Aragorn and C-3PO as Legolas, but the choices that they made don't make any sense. Sam and Frodo and Merry and Pippen just disappear from the story with, like, forty minutes to go. There's no Shelob, no Uruk Hai, no Ents...except for Treebeard, who's only in it for a minute and looks like a chubby walking carrot.

I think it was made just to confuse kids.

I watched The Nanny Diaries and Mr. Brooks this weekend.

The Nanny Diaries- The book is much better, but the movie was OK. It wasn't good, but it didn't bore me either (and lately I just judge movies on whether or not they keep my attention). Oddly enough, the thing that bothered me the most in the adaption was that Mr. X hit on the Nanny in the movie. He would never have done that in the book. Also, I didn't like how it had a happy ending. Makes sense for a movie, but that didn't happen in the book.

Mr. Brooks- Don't know why I rented this, but I liked it. It was better than I expected, but it wasn't great, and I doubt I'll be seeing it again soon, but it kept my attention. It was better than other serial killer movies I've seen lately. Not really sure if I got the point though. Maybe it's because I love Kevin Costner (OK- Kevin Costner as Robin Hood, which I still think of him as! LOL)

Well, we got rid of the tree and our living room is much more spacious and I can see the telly better! So we rented some old movies and tonight we watched It Happened One Night (1934) and absolutely LOVED it ! It was great!

I think my mom and I will go to see 27 Dresses when it comes out. She likes Katherine Heigl (so do I) and she's a lot more interested in going to the movies and renting them and stuff than she ever used to be. I got her to watch Music & Lyrics this weekend (she likes Drew Barrymore movies; as much as she can't stand Adam Sandler she enjoyed both 50 First Dates and The Wedding Singer).

^^ The Wedding Singer is my favorite movie!!

Those could have been guests, those could have been people at her wedding!

They were CONES!!

I love that movie so much--we saw it when it was on Broadway, too!

My roommate and I once found it on tv (on a Wednesday night) and stayed up until 2 am to finish it even though I had class at 8am. I keep meaning to get it when I see it on dvd but then I remember it's going to be on tv again and I tell myself I'll tape it (and then forget but end up watching it anyway).

Her name is going to be Julia Gulia?

I saw 'Sweeney Todd' this weekend. I personally didn't like it. I knew it was going to be gorey when I went to see it, and I can handle it to some extent, but this movie just kept it going. And the whole plot is just....ew. Although Johnny Depp is very good in it, it's a little too twisted for my taste.

Bailey I'm glad you liked Mr. Brooks. I loved it. Costner was really really great. I had been telling people to rent this movie cause it's much better than you think.

nanny diaries was a awful mess to me

Catch and release. It was so bad so very very head shaking bad. Jennifer garner isn't a bad actress but I don't think she'll ever be great. The story was lets face it....LAME. Kevin smith was the only bright spot in the movie and it only kept getting more and more soap opera like.

Didn't Sharpie tell you?!

Great news!!!!

I'm a huge Bond fan as well. My favorite of course being Sean Connery. My leave favorite surprises some people - Roger Moore.

The production company on Bond films makes special t-shirts for the crew. Somehow (Ebay???) my friends have managed to get a few of these and I've gotten them as gifts.

I will listen to sharpie from now on, I've learned my lesson

I just read Broken Lizard started a new movie today!! Super troopers is one of my fav movies I can watch over and over. This one is a boxing movie, slammin salmon with michael clark duncan.

Thanks to you I've seen most of the movies on your list (at least all the ones form the 30s and early 40s)!

I like Broken Lizard, but I'm still not completely sold on them. They disappoint me too often. Puddle Cruiser and Club Dread were kind of letdowns. Super Troopers was really funny in some spots. Beer Fest was probably the strongest of their movies so far, which is good because it's their most recent, so it shows that they're improving. That sequence when their buddy dies is about the funniest thing I've ever seen in my entire life. At least it was the first time when I watched it and had downed a couple of beers first.

You can't go wrong with MCD, so I have high hopes for this one.

I didn't like Beer Fest at all, but the funniest part was that they played Every Rose Has Its Thorn in its entirety. That had me hysterical the entire scene!

Started watching Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. It's good so far.

The funeral scene was the best funeral ever. I cried and cried from laughter. Club dread didn't work cause it wasn't about them. puddle cruiser was a freshman effort. I love these guys though. I have a small crush on steve lemme. I do like asking for a liter of cola at fast food. When they say we don't sell it I just tell em oh he11 give me a ice tea.
Why do they always make kevin Hefferman a crazy nutjob in their movies?

I agree wedd, using the whole song was the funniest bit. No one uses a whole song.

Awesome . Sean Connery is without a doubt the best Bond ever. Nobody can compete with the original 007! And plus, he oozed a lot of charm which doesn't hurt .

I agree with you about Roger Moore. He didn't do much for me. I felt like I was watching some typical action hero instead of Bond. Timothy Dalton wasn't too memorable ever. I remember watching the beginning of License To Kill & thinking that I was watching some cheesy 80's action film. Obviously I didn't finish watching it. Anyhoo, my top 3 favourite Bond films are...

1. Goldfinger
2. From Russia With Love
3. Dr.No/Casino Royale

& the 3 worst

1. License To Kill
2. Die Another Die (it felt like a cheesy comedy)
3. A View To Kill (such a boring plot)/Tomorrow Never Dies

Here's hoping Bond 22 doesn't dissapoint. And according to wikipedia, Bond 23 will come out 2010 or begin filming. Time to get excited again .

I just watched Predator 2.

I'm in need of a really good laugh, so I'll probably end up renting the 1985 film Commando. It's supposed to be one of those hardcore, macho action films but I swear, it's probably one of the funniest films ever . Arnold's lines & acting kills me . Sooo many funny scenes that nearly had me p!ssing my pants. I don't know anyone who took this film seriously.

The Phone Booth Scene

Too priceless

^^ is that the one with rae dawn chong too??

^^ Yep, she's in the film as Cindy. Her character was pretty much freaking out throughout the film . It's one of those rare action films that's regarded as a comedy. Here are some pretty classic lines:

[Matrix has thrown a pipe through Bennett]
Matrix: Let off some steam, Bennett.

Sully: Here's twenty dollars to get some beers in Val Verde. It'll give us all a little more time with your daughter.
Henriques: Heh.
Matrix: You're a funny man, Sully, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last

Matrix: Remember, Sully, when I promised to kill you last?
Sully: That's right, Matrix. You did.
Matrix: I lied.

Cooke: You scared**? Well you should be because this green beret is going to kick your big as$.
Matrix: I eat green berets for breakfast. And right now I'm very hungry.
Cindy: I can't believe this macho bu******.

Matrix: [after killing a man in the plane] Don't disturb my friend, he's dead tired.

(after dropping Sully)

Cindy: What happened to Sully?
Matrix: I let him go.

Bennett: John, I'm not going to shoot you between the eyes. I'm going to shoot you between the balls.

[Plane will not start]
Matrix: Come on, you piece of sh!t. Fly or die.
[Plane starts up]
Matrix: Works every time.

Gen. Kirby: Leave anything for us?
Matrix: Just bodies.

Cindy: You don't even have a car.
[Matrix pushes Sully's overturned car back upright]
Matrix: Now I do.

Cindy: You steal my car, you rip the seat out, you kidnap me, you ask me to help you find your daughter which I very kindly do, and then you get me involved in a shoot out where people are dying and there's blood spurting all over the place, and then I watch you rip a phone booth out of a wall, swing from the ceiling like Tarzan, and then there's a cop that's going to shoot you and I save you and they start chasing me. Are you going to tell me what's going on or what?
Matrix: No.

Matrix: What's wrong?
Cindy: This isn't a plane... i t's a canoe with wings.
Matrix: Well, then, get in and start paddling.

Matrix: Bennett! I thought you were...
Bennett: Dead? You thought wrong. Ever since you had me thrown out of your unit, I've waited to pay you back.
Bennett: Do you know what today is Matrix?... Pay day!

Matrix: Your loyalty is very touching. But it is not the most important thing in your life right now. What is important is GRAVITY.

With that kinda dialogue, all I can do is kill myself from laughter . And I remember one scene where Matrix drops out of a plane hundreads of feet in the air & lands on the ground, unhurt without a single scratch. Too priceless...

OK, so I am trying to figure out why it seems like 2007's likely Oscar nominees are almost entirely from movies that either didn't come out in 2007 itself or were mostly movies that next to no one saw.

Actually before I plunge into what's wrong with the 2007 Oscar-buzzers, maybe I should confirm which movies I'm talking about. I haven't seen any of these movies, but I plan to see some of them. Help would be greatly appreciated here. Did I leave any legitimate Oscar contenders out? And why are these films so highly praised. I would love to hear from anyone who has watched them (and liked them).
I mean, I can see a few of these reaching the masses (emboldened), but most of them are so d*mn obscure. I guess this year it's simply not possible to be both a commercial and a critical success with the same movie.

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN

THERE WILL BE BLOOD

ATONEMENT

INTO THE WILD

AWAY FROM HER

I'M NOT THERE

JUNO

EASTERN PROMISES

THE VALLEY OF ELAH

MARGOT AT THE WEDDING

THE GREAT DEBATERS

GONE BABY GONE

ZODIAC

RATATOUILLE

WAITRESS

The Oscars always have movies that are obscure. I think it's a very common thing for people to first hear of movies when once they get their award buzz.

There Will Be Blood, Atonement, Waitress, and Gone Baby Gone aren't obscure, are they? Atonement just came out. The rest I've never heard of, except for Margot at the Wedding, but I know nothing about it.

There Will Be Blood, Atonement, Waitress, and Gone Baby Gone aren't obscure, are they?

Not to people who follow movies and news etc but I bet if you ask people on the street have you even heard of one of these films you will be hard pressed to find many people that know about these movies.

Asking a person on the street about anything but the blockbusters is going to be a hard. I'd bet the average person could only talk about Ratatouille from that list. Maybe.

Like I said before, award seasons are when people first hear about movies. And I don't think people on the street have anything to do with it. The average person doesn't care. When a movie is obscure to people who follow movies- then you can say it's obscure.

So, The Dark Night Trailer is out. And I have to say, I am incredibly disapponted. Trailers for movies usually get me excited-thats what their intentions are. This one, did nothing for me. I forgot about it as soon as I clicked off the screen. It doesn't look like it has much of a plot-the story is bland. And, The Joker is one of the creepiest/horrifying thing I have seen in my life. I was expecting it to at least resemble Heath Ledger, but I didn't see that at all. At least Jack Nicholson's character was clown-ish and had colors on his face, and even funny. The Movie Poster on IMDB scared the crap out of me. It definitely looks like a horror movie. I am disappointed because Batman Begins was so incredible and well-crafted. Share your thoughts.

I've got to vie for Atonement, it is one of the best films I've ever seen. I don't think it's obscure at all, it's a great story, thrilling, riveting and touching without any sappiness. It's also wonderful because it was brilliantly done technically and artistically as well. There is a long one shot (no cuts) with 1 thousand extras, and it is absolutely fabulous! In todays world of fast cuts and editing, we rarely see one shots, and to have one of this scale! It was just stupendous! (Nine Lives is a great film, it's a series of intertwining stories all done in one shots!) Also, it was historically accurate (the hair, clothing, etc. perfect for each ere!) and it was one of the best interpretations of a book--from my mom and sister who read it and I now want to read it more than ever because it! The colour, cinematography, music, editing, etc. all fabulous! All the pieces of the puzzle were there. There are so many films that have maybe a good story but a not so great execution or a good execution and no real story (I found this with Girl With The Perl Earring, beautiful composition but boring as sin, no offense).

I honestly didn't love Juno, and the more I think about it the more I kinda dislike it, actually. I think that this might be due to the fact I don't particularly like 'teen' movies or movies about teenagers--I am one, and I don't want to relive the world I try to avoid at school and such. It had some strikingly similar aspects to Mean Girls. I didn't like the 'modern' dialect, it bothered me--and I like southern and carny slang and stuff, so it ain't that. I just couldn't connect with any of the characters or anything. Also, I was bothered by how they dealt with the moral issue at hand--which I realize is a touchy subject and like I said I don't want to debate abortion here--they made pregnancy and the whole thing look a little too easy IMO (and I know I ain't been pregnant, but still) and they portrayed the pro choice part of it biasly IMHO (this is an example SPOILERS bewarea punk-y teen looking girl would not work in a clinic, any clinic, and I doubt they would hand out flavored condoms). It was cute and the acting was good, but this is just my opinion, both my mom and sister liked it more. Please don't throw garbage at me, I'm not trying to insult it, just some constructive criticism.



I don't think Atonement is that obscure, but I saw it twice (and will see it again for sure when it comes out!), so maybe I'm bias !



You might be right there!

IMO, these award shows are quite bias. I'm still p*ssed that a singer with no acting background--whom shall remain nameless--won over actresses that are acclaimed and did wonderful jobs in much better movies (ok, sorry, I don't mean that to be offensive anyone !). And there are other examples of movies winning everything while there are much better deserving candidates, just because of either status, popularity and/or has a story that appeals to most or cannot be contradicted (I will refrain from naming any examples here, at the risk that I've said too much already !).

Some of this is because it's common for movies that are going for the awards to release close to the deadline and in "limited release." I hate limited release because it's never anywhere near me. I've been dying to see Atonement (I read the book before it was scheduled to release and loved it) but it hasn't been anywhere near enough for me to see it until now (but now I have no one to go with). Waitress I saw and I thought it was great. But there's also the issue of cost. Going to the movies costs so much that people have to limit the number of movies they see or look for specific things to come out and are less likely to see something on a whim.

I don't know. For me, when I'm away at school I have plenty of people to go to the movies with at a decently priced theatre but the selection is poor whereas at home, no one to go with, super expensive to see the great selection of movies that I'm dying to see. I can't win (until they come out on DVD).

Bailey put it in the nicest way possible. A ruder person might have said something about pearls and swine. It's not really an elitist thing, but the masses generally don't like to be tested by a movie. They just want to tune out and enjoy it...and there's nothing wrong with that. But that's why Transformers brings in the bucks, while No Country for Old Men wasn't seen by many people, but seemed to take the first or second spot on most ten best lists.

Also, you (TH) are right in that some of these movies weren't really released in 2007. When a studio thinks their film will benefit from awards buzz, they might set up a limited release in December, then wait for the ballots to come out and re-release it widely in spring of the next year.

Exactly. They wait until after it has the award buzz because then it'll bring in the $.

And has anyone else noticed how short the runs of movies are in recent years? Things are barely in the theaters more than a month or two. It used to be you had plenty of time to see something but now it's like blink and you miss it. There are so many I had wanted to see but because of things like school and work couldn't and now I'm stuck waiting for them to come out on DVD.

In most cases, it doesn't make sense to see a movie in the theater. The Simpsons Movie hit theaters on July 20. It was released on DVD December 18th. 5 months from theater to DVD. Some movies have even greater turnaround--you can check them out on Moviefone. Look at the release date and the DVD date here. In NYC, two people seeing that movie with no food purchsed is $23.00. Or buy it on DVD for $15.00 a few months later and own it forever.

I know that there are movies that should be seen on the big screen, but in most cases, you can wait.

Well, I was brave and watched Smiley Face from start to finish in support of John Krasinski. I was surprised to find he had a rather sizable part in the film. In contrast to A New Wave, the acting and production quality was much better, (I think I earned some major brownie points sitting through ANW!). John's character is a big nerd. Seeing as I loved nerds, I naturally loved his role. His performance was impressive as I didn't pick up on anything that reminded me of John K. He was Brevin to the core. Everything from posture, voice, and behavior tics were perfectly done. John made me believe he was someone different. As for the rest of the cast, they are drowned out by Ana Faris. Which is fine, considering she plays the lead role and is the focal point of the movie. She's basically high as a kite for the whole movie which creates some comical moments, but I got annoyed frequently with her antics. At first glance, the movie is basically about her constantly screwing up every single set of tasks she tries to undertake during the course of one day. Once I thought about it for a while, I realized the story itself may simply be one big metaphor with deeper meaning beyond showing a day in the life of a pothead. At one point in the movie Jane F (Ana Faris) comes into possession of an original copy of Marx's The Communist Manifesto and also engages in a debate concerning economic theory with her drug dealer. Adding to the metaphor is Jane's fascination with her super comfortable bed, her overly selfish tendencies, and constant attempts to make plans. The main idea of communism is that each person finds true fulfillment and society become equalized when capitalism is taken out of the equation. Jane carries the book around with these ideals as she demonstrates every reason why a perfect society cannot be attained. People can be corrupt, greedy, selfish, and totally oblvious. Imperfection often derails the most perfectly laid out plans, even if people have good intentions. Maybe I'm grabbing at straws here but the final few scenes were very artistically done and highly symbolic of the contrast between Marx's utopian ideals and the imperfection of humanity.

Well, I think that's enough Deep Thoughts for one day . . .


Here's the short review - Overall, not a bad 85 minutes. It was fun to see John K in such a different role and I even laughed a little bit.

DVD did that. The second run theaters are dying, and the rental pay-per-view markets have been completely changed because people actually buy DVDs *cough*O-h*cough* . It's sort of weird because VHS was around forever, but people didn't feel the need to collect them and display them on a shelf like DVDs. Then DVD's came out, and everybody has a collection now.

Tangent: What's really sad to me is that the exact opposite is happening to CDs. People seem to prefer to download songs instead of buying albums now. I used to think the coolest thing ever was a huge record collection, but I guess a fully-loaded ipod will do now.

Also, and I could be wrong, but if I'm to believe those guys walking around in circles carrying signs, studios prefer to sell DVDs because they don't have to share much of the revenue from those. I think, and again, I could be wrong, that most of the people who actually labor on a movie (do something other than just finance it), make most of their money from the original theatrical run.

First, the thing about the obscure movies. I guess my gripe is that I feel a truly great movie should do two things: 1. tell a resonating story (acting/directing/writing) and 2. connect with an audience (distribution/marketing/profitability). Movies that do both are "events": take some of the previous years' Best Picture Winners, like GLADIATOR, A BEAUTIFUL MIND, LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING (yeah, I know, that BP Oscar was basically a reward for the entire trilogy), MILLION DOLLAR BABY, THE DEPARTED. Everyone was exposed to these movies and could decide whether or not to check them out. They were movies first, awards-collectors second.

I guess I simply prefer both column A (critical) and column B (commercial) to be first-rate if the movie is going after Best Picture. And by "commercial", it doesn't have to be a blockbuster, merely profitable and widely seen. NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN seems to fall into this double-positive category, for example. Which is why I'm planning on watching it first chance I get.

Basically, my question is this: what effect does a story have if there is no audience to experience it? A story never told is not a story ... what then is a story barely told?



OK, I will share my thoughts ... unfortunately, all of them disagree with everything you just said. No disrespect to your opinion, but I absolutely love everything about how THE DARK KNIGHT is shaping out to be. It's number #1 on my 2008 Must-See list. I was amped when I saw the DK trailer. Not sure how you can say the story is bland if you liked BATMAN BEGINS: the theme of TDK is "escalation": Batman's success has triggered a "law-vs-crime arms race" in Gotham. Organized crime cannot handle the tactics of the Batman, so they bring in someone whom they think can do the job, the Joker. The Joker takes things to a new level, causing mass panic and turning Gotham against Batman (witness the police smashing the Bat-Signal) as they blame him for the Joker's appearance in their city. That's more than compelling enough for a story, in my mind.

It helps if you saw the teaser trailer (the bat symbol being broken apart by beams of light w/ the voice-overs) first. In it, Alfred explained it to Bruce: "You hammered them (the mob). In their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand (the Joker)."

Speaking of the Joker, I absolutely love Heath Ledger's interpretation of the character. The Joker should be an R-rated murderous psychopath, not a PG -rated gimmicky trickster. That's how he was in the comics when he was created in the 1940s. The Joker kills innocent people. What part of that sounds funny or cool? He's supposed to be horrifying. And Ledger's might be the very first Joker to fully get that. I look at a Ledger's Joker and I don't see the actor at all ... that is a compliment of the highest order to Heath's ability. Nicholson as the Joker was memorable, but I still saw Jack being Jack. He dominated 1989's BATMAN wayyy too much. I'm hoping they've learned since 1989, and still have the Joker be a scene-stealer (as is the character's nature) but keep the focus on the severely under-rated Christian Bale's Batman.

This should not look like your parents' Batman, because it isn't. And that movie poster was bad-@ss. The Joker scares me too. As well he should. But I don't see TDK as a horror movie at all, cuz in horror movies, the bad guy is always dominant. You don't really think the Joker is beating Batman, do you? C'mon now.

Sorry for the Long-Winded Response, btw.

This picture has gotten me very excited!

I saw this movie on sale on amazon and thought about buying it. I may buy a copy if it's cheap enough. New wave was really bad as far as production values. It was hard to sit through it even for John K.

A Chris Nolan film without much of a plot? Don't count on it.

TH nailed it pretty well, Nolan is adapting the Jokers more f-ed up stories, as well as removing some of the more hokey aspects of the character (like white skin). I suppose a big part of it was to differentiate from Nicholson's Joker, and also to make the character fit in the more realistic universe he created in Batman Begins. We've seen a harmless prankster in the 60's show, a murderous clown with some pitch-black one-liners in Batman '89, and now we get a character which from what I've read will be absolutely despicable in every way, and wrapped in a sloppy clownish getup. I personally think they nailed it -- Ledger's Joker will be very memorable.

One thing missing from the trailer is Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent, who for those of you who don't know ends up as the villain Two-Face (my personal favorite). The debate of Ledger Joker versus Nicholson Joker will rage on for years, but I don't think anyone will favor Tommy Lee Jones' ultra hammy performance to Eckhart's. But then again, too soon to tell.

That was hilarious! I just might have to watch that now. I love how he throws all of the cops off of him and how the guns look/sound like cap guns. Awesome .



I'm really excited about TDK too. I like what you had to say on it, TH . I'll just agree with you so that I don't have to type as much. I also like the fact that Maggie Gyllenhaal is in this movie instead of Katie Holmes. I don't know if they're supposed to be the same character or not, but it was hard for me to watch KH in Batman Begins. I dunno... she just wasn't very believable to me.

Wow! A stoner comedy with a grand statement about socio-economic policy? Maybe I should give this one a try. (I do have a bit of a crush on Ana Faris)

I may get a few weird looks for this, but I think Pineapple Express looks great.

I've got to agree with you here. Batman Begins had so many different layers to it that I highly doubt this one won't have any. I thought the preview was good. It gave me just enough of a peek for me to want to find out the story and I think Heath Ledger will make an amazing Joker. I for one am not a big fan of the older Batman movies because they seem too cartoonish (I love how they kept the X-Men movies from becoming too cartoonish too; I'd rather see Hugh Jackman in the black leather jumpsuit than yellow spandex).

And I'm excited about Aaron Eckhart. He's amazing and will be a much better Harvey Dent (and I can't wait to see what they'll do with his costume when they get to it).

2 movies from netflix: Twentieth Century (1934) and The Palm Beach Story (1942). I'm looking forward to watching both.

I watched the Big Tease late last night...coudln't sleep again. It's pretty decent. It's not Priscilla Queen of the Desert but it's pretty funny. The Cameos are a nice touch from a few people here and there and bonus...donal louge is in it as well. But I happen to like Craig ferguson's late show and his books.

Ooo, tell me how you like 'em! I think I looked for Twentieth Century but couldn't find it at my local video store.

I think I'm gonna watch The Great Zigfield tonight--finally!--this evening looks good, no other plans! I can't wait, I'm so glad I found it !

I was home sick yesterday and Firefox with Clint East wood was on

I forgot how cool of a movie that was. The Special effects were beyond cheesey but for an early 1980's moveit it was pretty bad ass!

It's good you don't have other plans because that movie is 3 hours long! It's well worth it though. Myrna Loy isn't in it until about the last hour but the rest of the movie is excellent too. The big musical number in that movie is one of the most amazing I've ever seen

^^^Oh my that sure is long (I know, don't say it )! But I can't wait !

I brought this over from the Songs/movies that make you cry thread because I wanted to ask a question about this scene from Love Actually. We know he gave the secretary the necklace, but do you think he really did anything with her? At the very end, he is coming home from somewhere and Emma is there to welcome him. Do you think she threw him out, or was he on a business trip, or what? I could never decide where he was coming from. You could tell that she was standing up for herself--she looked like she had more makeup on and nice earrings and I think they were trying to show that she was a survivor, but I never quite decided why there were at the airport.

Any thoughts?

Not from me! Ever since I saw a preview for it in the extras for Superbad I've been super excited. It took me a while to figure out that it was James Franco & not some other actor. I love Seth Rogen, cause he's a Vancouver native like me .
