Uh it's depressing. She goes crazy and then they die in each other's arms. I'm sorry but that's sad sad sad. Not romantic.
it's strange that they die to me, only bc there is a SEQUEL to the book! Erg! All i could think at the end was "oh, guess they arent making The Wedding."
But i do think it is kinda romantic. They lived together and died together. Although i agree, very very sad. |

But she forgot about the whole thing! She didn't know who the funk she was or who the funk he was. What's the point?! To reiterate my point... Sad, sad, SO SAD. |

Ummm, YES?!
I think the romantic part (yet sad of course) is that he decides to stay with her even if she doesn't remember him. |

I didn't hate The Notebook but I thought it was boring. Way too cheesy.
I hate *mostly* everything with Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey.
And anything with Tom Cruise.
Yesterday my mom rented the new Indiana Jones movie and she stopped watching it in the middle of it just to come and tell me, my bro and sis how indignant she was about it. I had to go see for myself. The whole construction of what a Latin American country is supposed to be *sigh*.
Good to know that in Peru they listen to Mexican music, and that Indiana Jones learned Quechua (the language of the Incas, Peru) from Pancho Villa, a mexican leader of the revolution who died in 1923 (which, considering the movie takes place in 1957, makes Indiana at least 60 years old), who probably knew a lot about Quechua, I'm sure.
My god, ignorance is bliss.
And this reminds me: Troy! Terrible movie. The greeks dressed like hippies, and the llamas! And Brad Pit looking like a porno star. Ugh. |

I would find him hot even if he was from some far off land.
He used to be on this bad teen show called Breaker High, and he was really not hot, and then he re-emerged as the current Ryan Gosling we know and love.
I will admit, i didnt really like the movie all that much the first time i saw it, but it grew on me.
and as for the dimensia and forgetting, i dont think it takes away from it being a romantic movie. It just makes the realities of dimensia even more heartbreaking. |

I remember that show. I remember watching it for 5 minutes, and then I switched it off. I think I went and watched paint dry instead... |

Is that turd already on DVD?
I'm sure the Latin American parts were a lot more painful to you. I think Indiana is a bit older in the movie but yeah, the rest you're right on. (or I am taking your word on!)
Oh I deleted it but LOL that Brad Pitt looked like a porn star. |

Transporter 2
Just watched it...Biggest pile of sh!te ever, the stunts were so over the top the suspension of disbelief was impossible. The dialogue was terrible, The plot line had humungous holes in it. Jaysus suffering fuck on a bike it was bad.

*edit* I just sat through that crap cause I thought The Omen was on straight afterwards, it's the fucking wankbag arsehole remake.

27 Dresses.
I have some problems with this movie. Some very big problems.
1. Okay, I don't have 27 (girl) friends that I consider close enough that they'd want me in their wedding. I don't even have 2 friends close enough to me that I'd want to be in their wedding.
2. The first scene when she's zipping back and forth in between two weddings in a cab and she's changing dresses and shoes and hair and what not. Okay, WHAT? Really? You couldn't say no to one of your friends. Really?
3. Benny and the Jets is not a song that really gets me going in the bar. Worse song ever to score a bar scene. Worse. Ever.
4. Oh no... are they going to have a music montage when she tries on all of those dresses... yes they are.
5. Another romantic comedy that's neither romantic or funny where an attractive, successful woman is alone, obsessive, manic, and she's waiting for her perfect guy to come. Give me a fucking break. |
