Upcoming Movies, talk them up, talk them down Options

[TetraGrammaton C...]

Here is a place to discuss your opinions on upcoming movies. When the movie actually comes out and people have a chance to say what they think about the flick post-viewing, then i think it will be ok to make a separate thread for the movie.

And if you are going to whine about movies, and let me be the first to call myself a harsh critic, then i suggest you back up your claims with some sort of support.






initally i would like to mention that ultraviolet looks neat. made by kurt wimmer (equilibrium). my roommate pointed out that he was sort of tired of seeing female action leads, but he is not a big fan of action movies in general. i, however, think i like movies more if they have female leads, especially action movies. (underworld, kill bill, pee-wee's big adventure, etc.)

I had the opportunity to see a screening of a documentary that will be released to some theaters in about a month. It's called Unknown White Male, and it's a true account of this British guy in New York who just woke up one day with complete amnesia, in a subway rolling toward Coney Island. He had no idea who he was or anything. It was an interesting film to see, at points very fascinating. Based on what happened to this guy, it poses the troubling question of whether or not a person's identity/personality is constant and independent of his environment and social climate. The director was there and held a Q&A session which was pretty cool. The writer/director of the movie is one of the real life friends of the guy who got amnesia. Check to see if it comes to Lubbock.

there was some homeless dude in chicago recently that found out he used to be a very successful lawyer in new york before he lost his memory from PTSD after 9/11 (he left the first tower 15 min before it was hit)
