Not true. It's like Rave and his quest to take over the world. Will he ever get his huge broadcast? Will he ever even be noticed if he does. When people see him, will the laugh? There is some logic in this. Although he appears to not be a threat now, wait till he gets more aliens on his side.
Anyway I saw collateral. Very good movie, especially the beggining, and how they explain the main character's.

I kind of meant logical conclusions made by the characters in a moive.
To change the subject, I want to go see Paparazzi. That looks cool ;D

Isn't that the one where a celebrity decides to blame a photographer for almost causing a personal tradgedy?

The premise of Paparazzi is very real, about how you can use pictures to ruin people's lives because its true. But the idea of some guy just doing it for fun sounds ridiculous.
Perhaps if the actor had some dark background, I would understand but the bad guy seems to be the director of the movie and he's the bad guy. I'll watch it on DVD.

And I totally agree with you on AVP Damascus.
First off, an hour and a half was too short.
Second, they spent way too much time trying to build up to the fight scenes. They didn't much of a plot in the first place, and they ruined it by trying to enforce it.
Third, not enough fighting period.
Idea that a human would tag along with a Predator is ridiculous. Perhaps there a nice and bad Predators, because the one in the movie Predator with Arnold, just came in and started killing randomly.

I saw Napoleon Dynamite. Ok I agree the moon boots, red fro are funny. And so is his plan to impress girls with Pedro. And Tina the Llama was really really funny.
It was hillarious, but certainly not as funny as Dodgeball the first time I saw it.

For anyone into intellectual movies, because despite the fact that I went to theaters to see AVP I do enjoy politically charged/intellectual movies such as John Grisham titles and such.
Has anyone seen the Manchurian Candidate?
It was directed by the same guy who directed Silence of the Lambs so it seems amazing and I have not seen it yet...

Yes I have. Manchurian Candidate is a excelent movie actually.
It's about this captin' and he and his team were like supposed to be going somewhere during desert storm, but lost contact for 3 days. Then like 10 or so years later when the captain gives a speech at a cub scout meeting, one of his crew members from dessert storm comes and tells Denzel washington about these dreams he has been having. Then all this dream stuff happens and basically they were taken to a place and hypnotized to think that they were on a recon mission, were taken down by some other people, and then one of the crew members took them all and saved them, and got them out of there single handedly, and also it made it so that this one guy who saves everyone gets the purple heart. It was all just the basis of this huge scam that the mother of the guy who supposadly saved them all pulled. She just wanted him to be president. And she still has control over all of the crew members that are alive. So she just wants to take over, using her son. But it goes completely wrong when Denzel Washington, sorry I forgot all there names I watched it a while ago, has the dreams and gets through to the guy who is running for presidant. It's really creepy, because the mother and anyone who knows how, gets them to do anything for them. It is a adress, like if they say "First name last name, position in the army (Like PFC or something) First Name Last Name, Then full title Sir position in army First name Last name" If they say the mother or anyone who know the adress says that to them, they will do anything for them.

Sounds cool. I had the chance to see it.... but I chose to see the Bourne Supremacy instead. Bad decision..... See, I made the mistake of reading the book by Robert Ludlum before I saw the movie. The book and the movie are not similar in anyway, except they both feature Jason Bourne as the main character and have Marie in them. The movie was just awful compared to the book. They didn't just take liberties with the original plot.... they threw out the original plot and made up some entirely different piece of garbage. I know that movies can't be exactly the same as books, but they could be closer than that was. I thought Identity was an excellent movie and it was pretty different than the book. That was just crap, overall. Plus it looked like they had a 4 year old on heroine behind the camera during fight scenes.

I feel the same way about I, Robot.
The Manchurian Candidate looks really neat. How is it compared to the original movie?

The original movie was a little different in storyline wise. But the same concept.
But if you compare the new one is much better.

I like the idea of a good Predator ;D
But I think the whole premise of that relationship was that she'd killed an alien, that made her fellow warrior. The whole reason the Predators were even there was because of a Trail of Manhood-esque ritual. The mark it gave her, blah blah blah. I have the book, but I haven't read it because... well, I'm reading the Wheel of Time books right now... so thick *groan* T-T
