...saw ONE HOUR PHOTO...starring Robin Williams last week and put me in mind of the Jack character from BLACKTOP...

yes i saw that as well my hubby thinks robin w is brilliant, but
i was totally confused by this film, so hubby let me get blacktop 8)
kezzina

yes..my husband and i are quite fond of robin williams ourselves..we're not really so much into his manic standup tho..as much as we are into his films..imo..he's a very versatile actor...

by the way ...big thumbs up on getting BLACKTOP... :-) ...

tink..

I haven't seen that one yet tink ... is it good?
Robin Williams is a fantastic actor :)
Vicki

..it wasn't bad...the family portrayal..had to agree with the critics ..a bit shallow...that you really didn't care much about them..but robin williams was good...it was a bit ... okay...aLOT creepy...tho...williams character with similar head problems as Jack in BLACKTOP...worse really... i don't know...i think you'll have to see this one yourself to judge....

tink...XO

Very interesting .. sounds like it's worth checking out.
Thanks :)
Vicki

Id agree with you tink, it really has to be seen, for explanations
totally fail on this one, especially the last 30 minutes or so...
yes hubbys, are nice hubbys sometimes eh tink... :wink:
kezzina

agree with you on both counts bigmomma....it goes a bit over the top the last 30 minutes...and yasss...husbands are very very nice sometimes...in my case..fortunately....the majority of the time... :-) ....

very good film, meatloaf is a top actor.

Rosie

Rosie

Vicki

Finally watched this last night thiught it was brilliant even the old git stayed awake to watch it, I must say I was mesmerised by Kristin 's nose I'm sure she has had a nose job since she finished this film it looks so different on Sex and the City. Sad muppet I am I notice these things i worked in plastic surgery theatres for years I can spot implants/extensions? a mile away


Rosie

I'm glad you enjoyed it !
When I watched it, I couldn't take my eyes off Meat (Jack) :))
Guess I'll just have to force myself to watch it again to see what you mean about her nose :)

Vicki

Yes let know what you think about her nose????

It really hard to find Meat´s film in Finland. Of course they show a few of his films but Meat is not so popular here so people don´t know him very well. But you can make a wish to the television companies that you want to see some film and they might show it sometimes. [/quote]

There's an episode of THe Simpsons (can't remember which), but Marge is watching tv with her sisters, and there's a parody of Sex and the city on the tele. They had Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Catrall, Kristin Davis, and the other one (can't remember her name!), but only as lookalikes. And even on The Simpsons they didn't fail to do Kristin's nose :D Just thought I'd point it out :) Oh, the one with Tony Blair's gonna be on soon! Saw a clip on GMTV this morning!!!! He pinches Homer's dollar!!! :lol:
