what?

I only remember Kirk Cameron....

Yeah, he played Luke - Kirk taught him in some inner city school (I think he played an orphan, maybe), and Kirk et al. just "adopted" him, so to speak.

Don't worry, you have time. Not just for the old Russians, but for everyone.

I barely passed literature in high school. I wasn't a good student at all.

 Awesome movie.

I love that one.  I've seen it probably a dozen times, never managed to get sick of it.  A brilliant performance by a very young Natalie Portman, and a downright chilling over-the-top villain brought to you by Gary Oldman.

Also a great flick.  I'm actually going to have to give that one another watch.  I want to read the book first though.

That's probably one of my favourite movies of all time.
I had never even heard of it before yesterday, but I'm so glad I watched it. I then immediately purchased it on eBay, of course.

I don't know how many women out there besides me enjoy naked Geoffrey Rush, but I certainly enjoy it enough for at least twelve thousand women.

I liked the nude Kate Winslet better.  But still a great movie.

Along similar lines as "Quills", you should also check out "The Libertine".

Oh, I have. I actually watched Quills because someone told me if I liked The Libertine, I would enjoy it.

I'm suprised Xolik didn't like Inception because that movie was pretty gay. I guess the lesson here is that not all gays like each other.

I actually liked inception because it was an out of the box concept. It reminded me of the first time I saw the matrix. It's good to see a bit more creativity in hollywood. Yes, some aspects of the film are fails. But some credit has to be given for originality (altough there's a lot of holes in the story).

I can't say anything about Inception since I haven't seen it yet. But, while the Matrix is kinda original (by combining ideas from various sources of influence), I wouldn't call it ~completely "out of the box"~, either .

Unless of course you're referring to the cinematography, in which case, I rescind the above comment, since it has nothing to do with that.

SPOILER:[/color] he spent the whole time trying to find his "real" kids when in the end he got dream kids and was just as happy.

I don't know if the writers intended this to be the message, or if the majority of the audience took this away from the movie but I was really happy when the top didn't stop spinning.

It's not that the top didn't stop spinning. The whole point is that the scene was cut short so you can only guess if it was going to stop or not. (which is why a lot of people hate the ending)

Yes but if the top never stops spinning the scene will always be cut short.

The top is how he is able to determine if he is dreaming or not. The top always has this power. To say that all of the sudden we can't trust the top is negating the entire story.

No one said we can't trust it. I said the movie ends without us knowing if the top falls or not, and this is by design. Fruitycandy says it is established that the top continues spinning, thus they had to cut the scene short otherwise the movie would never end. We would be staring at the top forever. Personally, I think a sudden earthquake at the end would have been a good way to end it. That way the top falls, but you don't know if the quake is real or if he just fell asleep in a bumper car ride. OMFGLOL!111

It has been some time when it comes to movies, I have not been watching any movies few months ago. The last time I went for a movie was months ago, and from what I remembered, the last movie I watched was Inception. Inception is indeed a really great movie as it has a very interesting story line that no other movie has tried attempting on. although it might be confusing at times, but still I like it.

Last night I saw Piranha 3D. Admittedly, I haven't seen the original Piranha, but I have a hard time believing this one was anything but loosely based on it...because Piranha 3D is a huge throwback to Jaws. The original Piranha film came out only three years after Jaws; if it had been this parallel in plot I imagine there would have been more to-do about it.

That said, I loved it. It's definitely a "leave your brain at the door" film.

Well, the last movie I watched was “Inception” and I must say that everything went over my head though I’ve read that it one of the greatest hits in terms of the special effects and stuff I do agree that it had great special effects; it’s just that I am not much of a techie person I prefer to watch more simple movies (my son is the techie) with the same old simple story – no complicated themes for me

I've seen "Inception" twice and it actually made a lot more sense the second time around, that's for sure.
