I am going to the movies tonight with my sister-in-law. Any suggestions? Is Fahrenheit 911 worth the 14 bucks? I saw Anchorman last weekend and it was soooo not worth the cash.

I'm going to (try to) see a good movie tomorrow - Bourne Supremacy. Heard lots of good stuff about it; I loved Bourne Identity and Matt Damon is a god to me.

Yeah, those both look interesting. The Village isn't out yet though, is it?

I'm probably going to see the Bourne Supremecy tomorrow. There were a couple movies coming out of Japan and China that looked pretty good, but they probably won't come to the Rave. I will probably go see I Robot again, then give Catwoman and Bourne Supremecy a chance Saturday. Not interested in F9/11. I will wait and get it from Netflix.

Of the movies out in Santa Barbara, those that I have seen are:

The Terminal - excellent movie! Go see it!

F 911 - thought-provoking - M. Moore is a masterful spin artist - doesn't mean the points aren't valid...
$14?? I paid $5.50...

Shrek 2 - entertaining...

... that's all I've seen.

If you liked The Bourne Identity, read the books! Continuous action, good reading - VERY enjoyable...

The Bourne Supremacy looks awesome, I loved Identity.

I personally loved Dodgeball, I laughed so hard in that movie, I guess it depends on your sense of humor.

The Village isn't out yet, but I think it will be great as well. Shymalan is a great storyteller, and I really like Joaquin Phoenix for some reason. Not sure why. Maybe I pity him because of the hair-lip. :P

Summer movies typically aren't worthy of a semblence of anything even remotely close to what good film making should be. Hate to give the shameless plug again but go see Maria Full of Grace. My GF has a 4th billing role in it and it is a very powerful film. I don't think it is scheduled for wide release until July 30th though.

Other films I have seen for entertainment purposes only:
Spiderman 2-great story woven into a very good movie.
Shrek 2-hilarious
Harry Potter 3-I think this is getting old
Dodgeball-stupid funny if you are into that kind of comedy
Anchorman-underappreciated I think, but you have to like the comedic style to stay interested

Yeah, I'm sure he pities you when doing a line of coke off Chloe Sevigny's ***.

Don't worry about that guy...he's doing fine.

You know, I heard that broad from Entertainment Tonight talking about Maria Full of Grace and it sounded pretty good. I might check it out.

Yeah it looks he's out of ideas. Frankly he had ONE and has milked a carreer out of it. I imagine he'll be ripping off Soilent Green for the next one. "It's got a great twist! I realize the last one was the blair witch meets children of the corn, but this one's a sure winner!"

Yes that is why I am not trying to get myself too hyped up over it. Everytime I do it's always a downfall. His movie Signs had an excellent suspensefull buildup and it was ruined at the end.

I don't know about you, but I pity anyone who is doing lines of coke at all, much less doing it off of someone's a$$, regardless of the how hot that person is.

Oh, lighten the fuc[b][/b]k up. Contrary to what you may have seen on an AfterSchool Special not everyone who does a line of coke ends up blowing old men in alleys to get a fix.

It's not that. It's just anyone on drugs at all, especially coke, I feel sorry for. It just isn't a good lifestyle.

Afterschool specials were great! I still remember one about 1980's teens that were all killed in a drunk driving accident. I was traumatized by them all flying through the windshield.

Nice shows for kids to watch. Smiley: lol

It's not a lifestyle any more than having a beer is.

Ask the President, he'll tell you.

Im not a fan of cocaine, im strait edge never tried anything not even a puff on a joint, but most of my friends throughout highschool were the pot head type, or dealers on the side. Well now most of them are cokeheads and while they are not blowing men on the street for the next fix they are definitely not the same people and i wont hang around them anymore.

Some of my friends in the city have started doing it to, just on the side from time to time and believe me it changes a person and you definitely dont want to be around someone that is doing it.

Its an ugly *** drug and the effect it has on a person is f'ucking sick, if you want to do pot, mushrooms, hash, etc i could give a rats ***, but i detest coke. Anyways its so facking 80's :P

Smash is right again, but the point I was making is that he lives a fulfilling decadent lifestyle full of adventure and wonder.

I think feeling sorry for his hair lip might be a bit misguided.

The hair lip thing was a joke. Come on now.

As for the coke, the last time I checked, cocaine was highly addictive. I would say that anything of that nature tends to become a very influential part of one's lifestyle.

Good movies I have seen this summer would include:

Spiderman 2 - He's still a very depressed person. Especially, after someone tried to drop a bus on him. Ouch, bad pun.

Harry Potter - Seemed kind of forced. I still recommend reading the books. Movie wasn't great. Maybe the next one will be better.

Shrek 2 - Shrek says it all. GO SEE IT NOW!

I Robot - Not a great movie, but a fun movie. Critics need to lighten up.

King Arthur - Wasn't bad, wasn't great either. I don't recommend seeing it until it comes out on DVD. Save the $3 dollars and rent it.

When Twilight Samurai comes out I would definetly recommend that one. Village looks to be interesting. Gozu looks strange as well. I'm still waiting on Warriors of Heaven and Earth. Hopefully that will come to the theatre. I hate limited movies, none of the ones I want to see make it to Denton.
