I'm bored...so I thought I would have some fun...

[Abbey Normal]

From a movie with one of the funniest men ever!!

Roxanne / Steve Martin

Yes! One of my fav movies.

What do you think about Steve playing Inspector Clouseau in the new Pink Panther movie? My first reaction was, this won't work; you can't duplicate Peter Sellers, but then I thought, since it's Steve Martin, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

1.-Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the movie not the sucky TV show)
2.I don't know...do you Dan??
3.-Shawshank Redemption (good movie, can't stand Robbins tho)

Shawshank is one of my favorite movies despite Tim Robbins being the main character...

(forgot to add, 1 and 3 are right...)

He is more of a prop artist than a clumsy fool type. I don't think this will work. Peter Sellers did such a bang-up job attempting to replace him with a known quantity would be difficult. They should have used a new actor.

I don't like the idea of remakes at all, but I'll give Steve Martin the benefit of the doubt. Then again, he hasn't made a good comedy since, what, Bowfinger?

I'm more disturbed by the fact that the previews give more attention to Beyonce than Steve Martin.

And, oh....

Person 1: He ain't all there is he?
Person 2: He's there enough to be dancing with a pretty girl while we're sitting around pulling our tallywhackers.

I am a Pink Panther fanatic so naturally, I'm not real crazy about remaking any of them. Clouseau is Sellers, Sellers is Clouseau. I hate they had to put Beyonce in it....as a draw for the younger crowd.

I'm going to see it. But I'm going to watch it as a movie with Steve Martin as a bumbling, French police detective.

Not as Steve Martin playing Clouseau.

I am though looking forward to seeing Kevin Kline and Jean Reno play their characters. I like both of them.

Have you seen Reno in The Big Blue (aka Le Grande Bleu)?

Awesome film, awesome part. He is a deep water free-diver, and it is set mainly in Italy.

Oh yeah.....I try to catch anything that he is in.

And the Italian setting is just icing on the cake.

 

[GotZoom]

Some of the Italian scenes were filmed in Taormina, Siciliy. I went there about a half a dozen times when I lived there.

Simply beautiful.

i would have posted a few more, but my access to the internet is limited now that i have a different job (YAY!). i only have short access during breaks/lunch or home, and i have had limited time on the computer lately.

ok, first one is Dazed & Confused, classic movie
the other 2, i have no idea...i think the 2nd is Ghost World, but I only saw that movie 2x, but the phrase sounds familiar.

my 3 for you:

1. "Thirty seven?!" (makes slurping noises)
2."That's what the internet is for. Slandering others anonymously. Stopping the flick isn't gonna stop that."
3. "Listen, not a year goes by, not a year, that I don't hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent - I don't care which one - but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator."

 

[Dan]

Yep, you're right about the first two. The third one, I didn't think anybody would get, it's Cannibal the Musical, Trey Parker and Matt Stone's first movie.

As for yours....

1. Clerks
2. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
3. Mallrats

I'm a huge Kevin Smith fan, so those were sorta easy for me.

i figured you would get those-i love most of his movies too. I thought the first one was a bit more obscure, being only 2 words...

ok...here are 3 more:

1. "...A cat? Is that what they told you? It looks more like a pig with hair if you ask me."
2. "Fix your boobs! You look like a bleedin' Picasso!"
3. "Why should I agree to swap one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away?"
