	Ehh, I liked it. Really heightens the horror aspect for me-what's worse than knowing you're about to have a monster rip itself out of you? Knowing that your friend across the way is turning into something that'll kill you. -----signature----- Only a Prime can defeat Vader and his Emperor.

	She's a great actress. Cameron also used her in Titanic, playing a Scottish woman! I like that line in Aliens, "anyone ever mistaken you for man?" and her response to the guy, "anyone ever mistaken YOU for a man?" -----signature----- Namaste.

	That's not quite right. It's "Hey Vasquez, you ever been mistaken for a man?" "No, have you?" -----signature----- Only a Prime can defeat Vader and his Emperor.

	Not seen it? I did some casting work awhile back and we asked some of the actors to do some impressions of famous movie lines. Half did Ben Stein saying, "Bueller. Bueller. Bueller." -----signature----- Namaste.

	80's comedy classic. "You killed the car." Jeffrey Jones is great in this too- just him on the bus at the end kills me . On a more amusing note, given that my last name is Buehler, you can imagine what line has been quoted to me most often . And my next door neighbor's last name is Ferris. I'm not joking. -----signature----- "When your future self tells you to do something, YOU DO IT." K'Kruhk, 140 ABY:"Why haven't I come forth earlier to share my Jedi knowledge with Skywalker?

	This is actually Merchant-Ivory being great (want to see them being awful? Quartet; I'll say no more). Denholm Elliot in particular is just brilliant. I didn't much care for the novel this is based on, but the film really has something magic about it. -----signature----- Don't be a fool, don't be blind Heart of mine If you can't do the time, don't do the crime Heart of mine

	Great, great, GREAT film. One of the few to add something to the genre since the all time classic "All Quiet on the Western Front". This is a film that really does convey the pointlessness of war by miring you entirely at the bottom level. It suffers somewhat because you can sense a hand in politics somewhere, but it's really very slight. IT completely deserved its Oscar nomination and is one of those few celebrated choices when the awards ceremony got something right. I liked how you never got a real sense of the battlefield in the film and you shouldn't. And how you never really got the sense of what the mission really was, and you shouldn't. -----signature----- What shall we do to fill the empty spaces Where waves of hunger gnaw? Shall we set out upon this sea of faces In search of more and more and more?
