I wouldn't necessarily be looking for a thin, pretty, blonde girl. Pretty is in the eye of the beholder, for a start.. Or maybe i'm not a good guy :shamefulcry:

nono! I said you were rare, as in you're the exception to what I pointed out.

Oh! That's OK then ;)

But you can understand why I didn't relate though, ne?

Other than it being incredibly long, it wasn't bad. It was cute. Definitely a chick flick.

Drew's role was hilarious.

Just fiinished watching Ronin (1998)... Really good movie by John Frankenheimer... Intricate storyline and some great action sequences, particularly the car chases, which director Frankenheimer excels at. :victory:

Highly recommended.

Am I going crazy, or did you post this before? It doesn't seem to be there now.

Was that before Little Shop of Horors?

This was a few years after.[/list:u] Legend has it that at this point in his career Nicholson was ready to give up acting. He was 30 years old and making crap like this. But then Rip Torn got in a fight (literally) with Dennis Hopper while making Easy Rider and they brought in Nicholson to replace Torn. The rest is history. [/list:u]

Is it just me, or does that remind anyone else of Alien?

Now that I look at it again, you're right. Guess it was the teeth. :omg: [/list:u]

I might've thought differently if there was a bunch of drool that the Alien is well-known for. :)

I just want to see how Christian Bale manages to put his spin on the franchise.
