cousinlucky Linux User Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: New York City Posts: 409	I wanted to get away from paying so much attention to disturbing news so I rented two movies to watch this weekend. " Righteous Kill " staring DeNiro and Pacino was disappointing. Vin Diesel in Babylon A.D. was also disappointing. Now I am even more depressed. __________________ Linux registered user # 414321 You Should Not Give In To Evils, But Proceed Ever More Boldly Against Them!! -from book six of Virgil's Aeneid http://www.paynal.com

"I am Legend" is not a movie to see when you are depressed but this is just a guess. I saw it tonight, really interesting story but still sad. __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help. Please keep it on the forums only.

I liked Will Smith in Hancock though. __________________ Linux registered user # 414321 You Should Not Give In To Evils, But Proceed Ever More Boldly Against Them!! -from book six of Virgil's Aeneid http://www.paynal.com

Speaking of Vin Diesel, this sums up exactly how my movie-going relationship with him is

It's just a good story that's told really well. I was glad to see it won some awards at the Golden Globes the other night. I wasn't expecting that considering it wasn't widely advertised/released.

From the opening credits my attention was captured. Kevin Bacon does a good job in this film which is full of great special effects. The only disappointment I had was in the next to last scene which went a little over the top. __________________ Linux registered user # 414321 You Should Not Give In To Evils, But Proceed Ever More Boldly Against Them!! -from book six of Virgil's Aeneid http://www.paynal.com

Yes I saw that and was impressed. As you said good story and well told.

This is pretty cool zombie type movie, I got a big kick out of it. 28 Days Later... (2002) __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help. Please keep it on the forums only.
