Ya i would have to say that Beach was a good movie as well as far as Tallledega goes if you think the previews look good go cause there is a ton more laughter that they do not show.
Leo DiCaprio? sounds to me...but catch me if you can was good....what the hell is it about?
I thought so too, the girl i was with at the time was in love with him so caught it at the movies and it is pretty good. Leo goes to Thailand on holiday and is looking for a new experience, catches onto this urban legend of the perfect beach. Rafts across a few miles and hikes through fields of Marijuana plantations run by some sort of cartel to reach this hidden society. Living completely of their won free will on the most perfect beach. It all goes pear shaped and Leo kinda loses the plot for a while. It shows no matter how good people have it, they'll always want more

Bondi I seen it, I liked it, not movie theatre like but worth watching. That is the one where he is in some country in Asia right at first??

Haha on the ball
Seriously though check it out, it's a cult classic.
Also you have gotta try and see this move called Chopper. It's based on an Aussie underworld character and it's all true which makes it both funny and amazing at the same time
went and saw talledaga nights this afternoon , it is funny but it is really stupid , So I guess if ya like a comedy it aint bad but not what i was expecting

Reminds me of:
Fabian: Butch, whose motorcycle is this?
classic Chopper line, "Why would I shoot a bloke... BANG! and then drive him to the hospital? It defeats the purpose of fucking shooting him in the first place"
Lots going on on this thread adn so much to comment on that I'll probably forget half of what I want to say. I'm not going to quote everything I'm referring to cuz it will take too long.
first:
bondi, I've heard the wallace's soul thing before. Years ago roger ebert (local movie critic) was asked teh question about that, and here was the reply. should sum up what people said here. But I still like the soul idea second only to... whatever the viewer thinks would be that marvelous and beautiful. ***DAMN!!! I've spent 45 minutes looking for the damn Q&A article that I was referring to and can't find it. Turns out it wasn't ebert like I thought. oh well. here's a link that explains and also kinda debunks a couple theories, including teh soul theory. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_Fiction
Second and nearly final cuz now it's way too late to be messing around here...
I love tarantino projects. especially PF, kill bill, sin city, destiny turns on the radio, and countless others. and of course, True Romance will always be an all-time favorite of mine. Can you think of the xylephone song at the end of True Romance titled You're so Cool? Well, at my wedding during the recesional, that's what I had played and also when we were announced into the reception. It was awesome. the acoustics in our church just banging around that music was so freaking cool!!!
Okay. there's more shit I wanted to comment on, but I don't remember any of the posts because I've been in this freaking reply window for nearly an hour. I'm just gonna hit this little reply button now.
Also, at the risk of sounding gay and inadvertently giving belicked and evade hardons, I will say that I do think Leonardo Dicaprio is a good actor. that damn heartthrob syndrome that was brought on by titanic really fucked it up for any guy who wanted to say they like his work. But he's grerat in Iron Mask. his acting brilliance is evidenced in that movie by the way that you really believe louis and phillipe are two separate actors. i mean, you can totally see it in his face which character he is playing.
Catch me if you can is also a great movie that he plays very well. If you like that movie, please, please, please read teh book. It is an auto-biography by the abernathy and it is absolutely hilarious and amazing. The book is a million times better than the movie and it will allow you to appreciate the story more. and it's such a quick read.

Unlike the catch me if you can book, bobaloo's posts are never a quick read haha. Gonna take me forever to reply to all this.
I was sure Ebert commented on the Wallace's Soul thing too. He wrote an entire article on why PF "worked" if I'm not mistaken. OK, found it. Here's what Ebert says: "The more you watch the movie, the more you're convinced that there is a hidden spiritual level in the plot. Much has to do with the famous briefcase which belongs to Marcellus Wallace, and which Jules and Vincent capture in the apartment. We never see its contents, which emit a golden glow. There have been countless theories about what's in it ("an Egg MacGuffin," said somebody at Virginia), but of course we will never know. What we can notice is that the combination to its lock is "666" -- the sign of Satan. That has led to speculation that the Band-Aid on the back of Marcellus' neck conceals the number "666." Is Marcellus the devil? That's unknowable, but reflect that Jules, who believes he has been saved by God, lives -- while Vincent, the scoffer, dies."
Actually the entire article is worth reading:http://www.godamongdirectors.com/tarantino/faq/secrets.html

I've always liked that song too. It sounds so much better with Patricia Arquette's monologue with it but it is good on its own too and has been used in plenty of commercials. It's by Hans ZImmer and on the soundtrack anyway it's called You're So Cool, but I don't know the official name of the song, but could hunt it down if you needed it. I never used it in my wedding, but I did the video slide show at my sister's wedding and used that song. It's a good song for a wedding without being overused tripe like Celine Dion or Shania Twain.

I agree boo he is a really good actor, he did a good job in the aviatar as well allthough I didn't care for the movie itself so much.
QUOTE(bondiguy)
Never seen the Aviator... looks too sappy for me
Aviator isn't really sappy. It's the true story of Howard Hughes. The mother of all eccentrics. It was a decent movie. Not great but totally worth watching.
Remember when Burns owns the casino and is bedridden with a beard and long finger and toenails.
Burns: Smithers, I've designed a new plane. I call it the "Spruce Moose", and it will carry two hundred passengers from New York's Idyllwild Airport to the Belgian Congo in seventeen minutes!
Smithers: That's quite a nice model, sir.
Burns: Model?
That's based on Howard Hughes.
What gnappy said Bondi, not sappy at all but long not great but worth watching.
Snakes on the plane I will wait for DVD the name of that movies just killed it for me I mean is this all that is left for movie ideas?? Seems so freaking Cheesy.
I mean it IS snakes on a plane... but that's all it is. For however long the film is...
Picked up the Bootleg Copy from my friendly neighborhood illegal alien chinese person yesterday watched it last night. The movie is Dumb. I would say 98% of the movies coming out today are dumb.I guess I would have to say it was dumb but usually if its bad I wont even finish watching the movie.Snakes I watched till the end and then said this was a dumb movie.I guess Samuel L. Jackson carried the movie.I would not pay more then 5 Dollars to see this movie.

Apparently when a soul is taken from one's body it is taken from the back of the neck hence the band aid at the back of the neck. Great article though
Yeah I DL that song thanks mate, I might use it in some capacity. I am having a very non traditional wedding in a sense I do not want the same songs played at my wedding that every other moron has had at their wedding.
If anyone has any obscure songs or alternative song ideas please pass them on! I have a few songs in mind already but with the Ceremony and Reception to cover I'll need a healthy library of music

I cringe whenever I go to a wedding and the play that same Shania Twain song I've heard at a hundred weddings before. Is it that tough to come up with something a little more original.
We chose Baby I love your way by Peter Frampton.
