As long as they don't start posting here, that's fine. :beaten:

finished watching Pirates 3. much better than Spidey 3. every questions about the last two movies (Curse of Black Pearl, Dead Man's Chest) will be answered here. how did Davey Jones become like that? that disgusting squid (yuck) :bleh:. What is Will Turner's real identity is about. and the final climatic battle is awesome!!! :applaud:

the only thing that annoys me is the english of Chow Yun Fat. :sweat: :bonk:
can somebody teach this guy how to pronounce english words?! :beaten:

I finally got to see Letters from Iwo Jima.

Damned good movie.

And I thought Ninomiya Kazunari as Saigo stole the show.

Here's a review of the DVD from DVD Beaver:

[image] Picked up the boxed set Flags of our Fathers/Letters from Iwo Jima today. 5 discs altogether. I was just going to get Letters, , by itself, but then I thought, "I wanna see EVERYTHING!!" ( I think I've been hanging around Sensei too much :beaten: )[/list:u]

Awwwww, I'm envious! I never got to see this in the theatre's either. :puppydog:

Just finished watching Flags of our Fathers I didn't watch it in a theater because I read the book, and as a rule, I don't watch a movie if I've read the book because I've already imagined it in my head, and the movie almost ALWAYS gets it wrong. Of the 2 movies, Letters from Iwo Jima is the better of the two.

See, I don't get that...I would watch the filmed version of a novel. I think of it like, this is another person's appreciation of a piece of art.

That depends on the novel. Some books could never be adequately turned into a movie. Geez, film-makers have regularly stuffed up even comics, what chance to they have with a full novel? :hehe:

Im hearing a lot of good praises here at Letters from Iwo Jima. makes me want to watch it already. :sweat:

*Search for the movie....*

Hmmm, I suppose that's one way of looking at it. The thing is, the book was well over 200 pages, and to condense that down into 2 hours, they end up leaving things out, taking short cuts, etc. That's what drives me nuts, is when I see the film and say, "Geez, how come they left that part out?!!?"
