Wow. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who doesn't get motion sick. Right now I'm lying in bed trying to shake the queasiness, and replaying the movie in my head.

An exciting, fresh look at the issues of immigration, segregation, and racism, I really enjoyed it.

Can't wait to see it! I've heard only good about it so far...

I really want to see this movie, but I am going to wait for it on DVD. I haven't been to see a movie in a theatre in quite a long while. No fun going by yourself.

When ever I see your avatar it is the face of a cat for the first two or three seconds.

I believe Cliffy had mentioned the same thing. I admit when he first said that, I didn't see it, but once I really looked at it closely, I could see it. Strange how the mind works with regards to imagery, eh darkbeaver?:smile:

One of my replications has seen the movie, and he was entertained. I will add it to the twenty-two page list of flicks to see. My filim book is full untill sometime in 2012. I can't watch unless it has english subtitles anyway.

There never seems to be enough time to see every movie that I want to see. I haven't even watched Dark Knight or Iron Man yet!

If you liked the movie I'd suggest getting the graphic novel it was base on. It's much better. 1 warning though, it's not for the weak of heart.

I let him know about it in a PM earlier.:smile: It is shame there is almost nothing similar between the two, but I don't think they would be allowed to show it if it followed the comics to the letter. The mini-series kicked ass, and had one of the most "holy ****" endings I've read in quite a long time.:cool:

There is definitly more movie than time. Those are titles that I had forgotten, probably on the list where ever it is. I got hard on movies a while ago, three strikes and I shut it off, usually it's the dialogue that's why I like the sub-titled movies, I have found that if the movie is good I don't even know I'm reading it.

I find with some movies(the same goes with television shows) that if there is a lot of noise(particularly in gunfights and whatnot) it can be difficult to hear what people are saying, especially if they talk in a lower voice. I usually turn on subtitles on the DVDs. I don't need to, but I do not find it a distraction at all.
