Nopers, I haven't seen AeonFlux. I'll try to keep it in mind though.

Check it out if you get the chance. It's a good one, IMO. Not really much of a science fiction fan - I usually go for horror over sci-fi - but AeonFlux had the element of surprize in it that I found lacking in UnderWorld.
Later Mia. Gotta run. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Yeah, I'm not much on Sci-fi myself. It has to be a really good story to pique my interest. Horror is my first love.
So, have a great rest of your evening too. Later.

Hey All...I have the original anime comic like series of the aeonflux...Does the movie compare at all? I am often let down by the attempt to recreate a comic or anime into a movie...But remakes seems to be all the rage these days...Guess there are no original screenplays out there these days.
So how has everyone been...Hopping over the bar and grabbing a cool glass of sweet tea...I'm a bit parched

Yes, indeedy, good to see you, GP!
Just my opinion: "Aeon Flux" was a visually striking movie. And as my niece put it, "it was good once the fighting started". But it takes a long while to get there. Slow beginning.
I preferred both the "Underworld" movies to "Aeon Flux", though the explicit violence and sex in the 2nd "Underworld" bothered me. I'm a wimp!
While we're reviewing movies, I saw "Tristan & Isolde" last night, and enjoyed it. What a gorgeous movie! The photography is brilliant, and the entire production - costumes, sets, lighting, etc. - are beautiful. Sylvia Miles is very good as Isolde, and Rufus Sewell is very effective as good Lord Marke. But, James Franco's one-note performance as Tristan undermines the focal point of the film - the passionate love story. He's the weakest actor of the lot. Not a desirable trait in your leading man.

A stop in for a cup of coffee to go, and a quick hello to everyone. Is there anyone left?

Not so lovely? And why's that? Aw...not (another) loss by the Cats, is it?

Post by katina2nd on Jun 26, 2006 21:50:22 GMT -6
Now you had to go mention the Cats and make things even worst. Naw, just not a very nice day, cold, bleak, blustery wind, showers.
Actually the Cats had a break this week, after winning their last two matches, so keeping my fingers crossed for next weekend.

Post by Phalon on Jun 26, 2006 21:55:07 GMT -6
No, no, no - don't tell me I went and made things worse. Sniff. Now I feel bad.
Glad for you the Cats have a break; hoping for you for a break in the weather.
Chilly here too for this time of year.
How about a nice cup of sludge? I'll fix it.

I'll take a chance and say yes, just don't go overboard on the "sludge" bit though if ya don't mind, don't think my innards are up to it.

Hi Gabbin, I'm fine thanks, just wondering if I've done the right thing accepting Lady P's offer of a cup of sludge. And how are you?

Just lap the top as the nasty stuff sinks.
I read today that Willy Willies is the name of hurricanes or some storm. Can you confirm this rumor? Or should I say rumour?

Post by Phalon on Jun 26, 2006 22:29:42 GMT -6
Say it with the "u"; it sounds better, (rolls eyes).
Hiya Desire, Gabs.
Oh sheesh, even the sludge isn't working keeping me awake.
Fading fast; I shall soon be just a shadow upon the screen.

Post by katina2nd on Jun 26, 2006 22:33:11 GMT -6
I'll try that, just sip the froth off the top. And you're kinda right, a "Willy Willy" is not really a hurricane, but more a small dust storm.
Hey I'm just down the highway Desire, should I start looking into renting a tux?

Post by Gabbin on Jun 26, 2006 22:36:05 GMT -6
Ah, a dust devil. Yep, that was it. I won't even ask the origin of that name.
I won't be long for these boards tonight, either.
