My advice is to watch FP and determine if the scene you remember was lifted from this movie and condensed into a film short. My local theater use to do this with long form cartoons like Tom & Jerry and Heckle and Jekyll where they took small snippets from a story and used them as time fillers.
I don't know why Hollywood keeps Ted Bundy's legacy alive so much. Why not make a series about Richard Ramirez while they're at it?
Either way, Efron looks too young and doesn't really resemble Bundy. They can make Tim Daly look younger and cast him imho
I like the heavy use of Bulgarian actors. I've never seen a Viking saga with so many Southern European looking subjects. Maybe they can do more movies about the Viking Sagas in the Mediterranean, they have the cast set.
She's semi-retired because she's in her 80s. Humans tend to slow down after they exceed 75 years of life. My parents are a testament to that change. It's odd because when my grandparents were alive I never looked at them as old or "slowed-down" but that's because they were already up there in age when I was a toddler/kid. With your parents it's different because you've known them since you were a child and they were young adults. That's kind of how I view Barbara's progression from active TV personality to someone who probably takes several naps throughout the day, so she's off the grid for the most part for sure!
The brain is still being explored by scientists. Nobody has concluded that our memories can never be transfered or preserved by other means.
Humans didn't think we could transplant organs to other people not too long ago either.
I'm amazed it's still on the air. The first 3 seasons were intriguing but since ABC is owned by Disney it has become a tiresome extension of Disney's commercial agenda instead of a charismatic creation inspired by it.
It fails in its delivery as a cautionary tale, instead it comes across as any run-of-the-mill After-School Special.
It could have achieved what the 1975 film "Network" did, but they chose the easy route instead.
I would prefer to see QT adapt more novels. His adaption of "Rum Punch" ("Jackie Brown"). His revenge flicks are getting old and stale imho
Tarantino's movies wouldn't be as good as some of the really are if it weren't for Sally Menke's editing. I saw a rough cut version of Kill Bill 1 & 2 and watching that compared to the edited final version is almost like night and day.
what does fully white look like?
I never read the books, but I never get the sense from the TV show that there is any ONE ruler over the 7 Kingdoms. The title seems at most symbolic with not economic or military extension of King's Landing lording over the other kingdoms.
Everything in each Kingdom seems to already be set in its ways, but there is very little detail on how each Kingdom keeps its people in check. When you compare it to Medieval Europe there's only so much you can parallel because there is no organized religion to compare to the Catholic Church which was instrumental the development of the aristocracy across Europe. In GOT they only reference age old legends and mythology to explain their origins.
Dinner for Schmucks
Yeah, the whole system of them importing "zips" to do the dirty work. Even that seemed far fetched because of the sloppy way in which it was handled, especially with Chris using that heroin addict as the intermediary and then the zips kill the wrong people. WTF?
I'm perplexed by her presence in so many movies, which must mean that casting directors are either forced by the studio or are payed directly by Cara's handlers in the form of money or Cara's sexual services. Either way, she has no box office champion under her belt but continues to get leading roles as well as high profile supporting roles.
On the flipside, an equally poor actor Taylor Lautner seems to have been blackballed by Hollywood due to one movie where he was cast as the main character but the movie flopped. I actually caught this film on a plane flight and found the movie overall poorly directed, edited, and poorly written so no matter who you cast this film was destined to fail, but it wasn't just because of Taylor.
Gandolfini did a great job, but I think there could have been a great contender for the role by actor Tom Sizemore. If you watch Tom and James acting side by side it's like you're watching twin brothers. Tom may have been a bit scarier though with his big glaring eyes, whereas James had small beady eyes.
She was about a 6 to me when she got hype back in the 90s, but I never found her appealing as Lara Croft. Then when she converted herself into this self-righteous Mother Theresa persona she dropped down to a 2.
I wish I knew where to find these scenes too, but I haven't had any luck. I'm sure Allen has a large volt somewhere that stores all of his unused dailies and deleted clips.
I remember some youtube channel had spy footage from last fall in Ireland and it featured the Gendry character next to a boat
She played a very small part as an aspiring actress who has a fling with Woody Allen's character. It was cut out after initial previews by Allen and the producers who felt that the subplot added nothing to the entirety of the story. A good part of the final film is composed of reshoots that Allen had rewritten and one of them was the ending where Sean was suppose to be at the wedding with Cliff (Allen) engaged in some hi-jinx. Instead, we get the closing scene between Landau and Allen.
When I first heard "Let it Go" I was immediately reminded of PBS' Nature theme from the mid 90s.
