In the last week I've seen "The Last Samurai" and "Red Eye". Both were very different albeit very rowdy and violent movies for the most part. TLS was a 150 min saga that actually restored "some" of my faith in Tom Cruises ability to act (or at least pick a decent script). RE was somewhat predictable, but had an excellent element of suspense, and I loved the fact that a sweet and pretty young woman played by Rachel McAdams could also take the fight to the bad guys rather than just rollover and play dead. IMO a decent role model for today's women--------be sweet, respectfull, and feminine but ready to kick some butt if comfronted by evil.

The last one I saw was "Lord of War." It was interesting, although it seemed to subliminally say that guns are evil which I obviously don't agree with.

I didn't say she was classy, just pretty. The Hollywood idiots are, by in large, open-minded and artsie. I'm not surprised to see the photo, just disappointed (in her). 222

Maybe they're open minded about some things, but throw a firearm into the conversation or hunting and see how open minded they are! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> m

You forgot that other two fisted, action packed, blood and guts and gratuitous nudity laden classic, the one that always makes the all time top ten list of every red blooded, pickup driving, gun toting, beer swilling American: "Pride and Prejudice" I bought two DVD's just in case one goes bad. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Great point! It's my 2nd favorite---------right behind Godfather II. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Please tell me you've also seen Steel Magnolias, Fried Green Tomatos, Thelma & Loise, and The Devine Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood! All favs of mine. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> 222 Almost forgot--------Chicago! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> And Beaches! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
