Holy crap...a bunch of good movies are gonna come out soon.

I was told the other day that Spy Games is definitly a movie to see. Its "intense". It looks pretty cool even if Robert Redford is getting a little old.

Lets see movies I wanna see are Ocean's 11(old rat pack remake), LORD OF THE RINGS, and Ali...those are prolly gonna be the 3 I concentrate on. There is more I want to see but I forgot...ohh I kinda wanna see Vanilla Sky, mainly cause it has Jason Lee in it and he's a funny dude.

What do you want to see?

Unfortunately I can't get them over here - I can get translated, dubbed versions - but it's just not the same...

If you let me know what you may be interested in maybe we could do some swapping. I am a fan of Celine Dion and I know that there are things outside the country that are impossible to get. Would you be interested?

*gasps* Roan, you may be the very first Dark Lord of the Sith to confess a liking for Celine Dion. Wow.

Yes, Lord of the Rings looks kind of cool...even though the Lord of the Rings trilogy was one of the few "classic" fantasies I didn't read in childhood.

And Spy Games...yeah! Robert Redford is on my list of "old guys that look pretty darn good for their age". Harrison Ford of course being #1.

Isn't Celine Dion a Canadian?

Yes she is but there is a lot of stuff all over Europe that you can get that isn't offered in the states. It is good for one who practices the All to show a sensitive side as well. We can't always go around like Metalica and Ozzy although they are both VERY good.

Harrison Ford is and always will be THE best!!

I am but a humble Ewan fan.

why does my heart cry?
Feelings I can't fight?
You're free to leave me
Just don't deceive me
And please believe me when I say I love you...

Well that would work Roan - if I was staying here - but I'm not - I'm just here for a year - though I can say I haven't actually seen any different Celine stuff here than in Canada - all the French stuff is availible there - go to Montréal and it's easy to find - I'm just at the I-hate-France-I-want-MY-country/language stage of my study abroad right now - perfectly timed for Christmas - luckily HP just got here and I'm going to convince one of the guys in my class to go with me this weekend and see it - in French

Thank you though Padme it is the thought that counts...

Brosnan, Ewan,....what pickles!!! Now Roan..

Lord of the Rings and Planet of the Apes get my vote for today.

I know it's not a newbie but I still stick to "Pitch Black."

Haven't seen it but another goodie is Deep Blue Sea with LL Cool J. I also liked the last one Cuba Gooding Jr. and Robert DeNero were in can't remember the name though.

OHHHHH HP was sooo good - even in French - though I now really want to see it in English to see how the actor's really sound... the Voice over was well done though so it was believable for the ignorant that they were really speaking French - I however knew they were not and so was not as easily fooled - ok not when I thought about it - the little lipreading part at the end was obvious English though - that made me laugh - ok snicker - cause the French didn't manage to change that bit ... heehee English Conquers all!!!! at least as far as this is concerned...
