Rogue_Leader 2 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 You think the Passion will be the truth?No what I mean is it stays closer to the actual original telling of the story of Jesus. LToC was more of a director's own "side story" of Christ. It dealt with Jesus dealing with the temptation his human body brought with it. People didn;t like the filmaker straying from the traditional story. This is simply a retelling of the traditional Biblical tale. So its more in line with the "Christian truth" lets say.

hitman20 0 Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 not good for the boxoffice results.Well if your referring to that not being good for the Passion movie, then I'd have to disagree. With the amount of unnecessary controversy surrounding this movie, and the amount of free publicity it's recieved, then it's guaranteed to hit 100 million within a few weeks.

I do not include pre Gump movies, coz I've never seen them, apart from Big I don't think he'll ever beat Forrest Gump, he was absolutely amazing in it. One of the best performances in movie history. The Coen brothers are always good. I recently saw The Big Lebowski and O Brother, Where Art Thou? for the first time, and both were great. TBL is one of the most quotable films ever. Yup- I've seen all of there movie except for Barton Fink, which supposedly one of there best. I think they're the only established filmmakers who's never made a bad film. TBL is one of the funniest movies ever, and is the movie I've quoted more than any other. Fargo is brilliant, and Miller's Crossing is just.... just.... well, it just scrumtrilescant! And as I said, all their films get at least 3 stars. And I even like Hudsucker Proxy, I like it alot. 3 1/2 stars in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeejaHalycon 0 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Does anybody know anything about Mask 2? It looks pretty bad from the pre-ROTK teaser.Also, I must say Sky Captain does not seem promising either.

QMM 4 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Mask 2 does not have Jim Carrey in it in his place is Jamie KennedyThe movie, directed by Larry Guterman, carries on with the premise of a character-altering mask that was established in the 1994 hit starring Jim Carrey. This time around, it follows an aspiring cartoonist (Jamie Kennedy) who is not ready for fatherhood but finds himself raising a baby endowed with the powers of the mask of Loki, the god of mischief. Loki is played by Alan Cumming.A pic of Cumming as Loki: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 When NASA first started sending up astronauts, it was quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface, and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300 degrees C. The Russians used a pencil. Actually they developed it as an independant commercial product for profit too not just for space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
