    Would be cool to see Mr. Harvard on screen. The one issue is that I don't think it's quite long enough to make into your standard Stephen King television mini series.


    All credit for this awesome set goes to Lillian Thorne!

    But then again, I think it's too long to make into one film (without leaving out the good stuff), and if they made it a 2-parter, then it would be... shit.

    Haha, I'm with mdk.

    What I found highly confusing is The Woman In Black. It's a basic Hammer Horror film, but it was... good? I mean it scared the shit out of me, but nothing that would permanently scar me (as Hammer should do it), and it had the basic ghost story, basic idea's for the scares, basic cinematogrophy, and basic soundtrack*. So how the fuck did it get me so bad?

    Coriolanus is also highly confusing. They speak Shakespearian :O

    * all these 'basic's' are of my own opinions.

    I just watched Snow White and Thor the Huntsman on Saturday. Decent film. It didn't have any major negatives, really, so I guess you could call it a "GOOD" movie -- it's just not quite what I'd been expecting from the previews. It's a lot more 'fairy tale' than 'action movie,' albeit a much darker reimagining of the fairy tale.... My biggest reservation is that the most iconic parts of the film seemed borrowed from elsewhere (which isn't the case, I'm sure -- it just SEEMED that way). The movie really relied on the visuals a *lot*, and the visuals they picked were very reminiscent of other movies that did more with the effect. Your time might be better spent watching Princess Mononoke again, and throw in Pan's Labyrinth for good measure, and that'll give you all the best parts of Snow White.

    When I heard the interview with the director or Producer for that film, he said, "it had the action for the guys and the romance/love story for the girls," or something like that. It seemed to me that this was just like the Alice In Wonderland film. It seemed to me that this would be a kind of mixed film. So was it?

    'K guys, I remember this snippet from a film, but no idea what the film is. It's these people (or person) going into a weapon shop and buying a whole trolley-load of guns and stuff. For some reason, Simon Pegg is there (may be a figment of my imagination).

    Would it be Commando though?

    I'm rather curious with Disney's "Brave" and "John Carter." Should I bother watching them?

    Also, a friend of mine asked this, "MIB 3? Is that related to Woman in Black?" XD

    Brave I wouldn't mind seeing because I'm Scottish xD And John Carter was considered one of the biggest flops of all time. Nearly $200m dollars lost, I believe.

    Rofl. I've watched Woman in Black twice now, and I keep shitting it at the same places. Not. Funny. And tonight I'm going to see MIB 3, so I'm hoping it's good...
