That is what I am worried about. I discard, bot won't let you use my code, and we both lose. Can you ask around? I am too busy now.

True Romance: 15 Years Later (Cinema Talk Post)

True Lies -- "I've got a little dick! It's pathetic!"

budzos says...

Well, even the weakest James Cameron movie is one of my favourite movies. Here's how I rank his films, in order of personal preference:

1. Aliens
2. The Abyss (I think this is one of the most underrated films of all time)
3. Terminator
4. Terminator 2
5. True Lies
6. Titanic

Aaand that's all his movies. Pretty amazing that a guy can become one of the most well-known directors of all time off six movies, and he hasn't even made one in twelve years. But if you look at that list, True Lies sticks out as the most standard, the least ambitious. This is not to denigrate the film.. I fucking love it! I was there opening night in 1994.

Seven seconds of awesomeness

>> ^Sarzy:
BS!
Arnie was pure gold in the '80s. Commando? The Terminator? The Running Man? Predator?? Come on. Then if we go into the early '90s, we've got Total Recall, Terminator 2, True Lies... Arnie is awesome. That's not my opinion, that's a fact.


QFT!!! (Yes, that's right 3 exclamation points!)

Seriously Commando is awesome. Grab a couple of buddies and beers and enjoy.

BUSH IS OVER!

bizinichi says...

you might want to impeach cheney first though

take action:
The one click form on this page will send your personal message to all your members of Congress, with your vote on the the question "Should Vice President Cheney be impeached?"
http://www.usalone.com/cheney_impeachment.php

Why?

Lying to congress and the American people:
* Lie #1 - Uranium from Niger - Bush said "The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." in his State of the Union Address. The documents supporting that statement were forged.
* Lie #2 - Iraq and 9/11 - Bush led people to believe that Iraq was involved with 9/11 by repeatedly linking them in his speeches. This was so effective that at one point 70% of Americans actually believed Saddam was behind 9/11. Bush has since admitted that this was not true.
* Lie #3 - Congress Knew - Bush has stated that Congress had access to all the same information that the White House had. Thus he should not be blamed for making the mistake of going to war. But Bush was briefed many times about the falsehood of various stories and this information never reached Congress. [ZNet]
* Lie #4 - Aluminum Tubes - Bush, Cheney, Rice and Powell said that some aluminum tubes Iraq attempted to buy were intended for use in a uranium centrifuge to create nuclear weapons. These were the only physical evidence he had against Iraq. But it turns out this evidence had been rejected by the Department of Energy and other intelligence agencies long before Bush used them in his speeches. [NYTimes] [MotherJones] [CNN]
* Lie #5 - Iraq and Al Qaeda - Bush still insists that there was a "relationship" between Iraq and Al Qaeda. But the 9/11 Commission released a report saying, among other things, that there was no "collaborative relationship" between Al Qaeda and Iraq. The nature of the relationship seems to be that Al Qaeda asked for help and Iraq refused. Al Qaeda was opposed to Saddam Hussein because Saddam led a secular government instead of an Islamic government. [ZNet] [CNN] On 9/8/06 a Senate panel reported there was no relationship. [ABC]
* Lie #6 - Weapons of Mass Destruction - Bush insisted that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction but his "evidence" consisted mostly of forged documents, plagiarized student papers, and vague satellite photos. The United Nations was on the ground in Iraq and could find nothing. After extensive searches Bush was finally forced to admit that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction.
* Lie #7 - Mobile Weapons Labs - Bush and his team repeatedly claimed that Iraq possessed mobile weapons labs capable of producing anthrax. Colin Powell showed diagrams of them at his speech before the UN to justify invading Iraq. These claims originated from Curveball, a discredited Iraqi informer who fed Bush many of the stories related to WMD. On May 29, 2003, two small trailers matching the description were found in Iraq. A team of bio-weapons experts examined the trailers and concluded they were simply designed to produce hydrogen for weather balloons. But, for over a year, Bush claimed these were part of Iraq's bio-weapons program. The expert's report was suppressed and only recently made public. [WashPost] [ABC]

Pre-Gun Barrel Sequence in Casino Royale

Deano says...

I don't know, I felt a bit let down by that. I know Bond got way too tired but I liked the opening sequences in the 70s when Moore was flying planes through hangers. This just reminded me of the bathroom scene in True Lies, a film that was in part a parody of Bond and had a bigger budget. Nowadays Bond can only get made with considerable and painfully obvious product placement.

Casino Royale was a solid start but it's still compromised by the need to be a Bond film - you can throw some serious acting talent at it, but people still want that crash, bang, wallop.
