I don't know all that much about the director. 😳 But I’ve been really sucked into reading reviews lately, especially after catching a screening of Vertigo tonight where they were talking all about that movie.
I haven't seen it myself, but my boyfriend watched it and said it was a total waste of time... Of course, he watched the original version—not some dubbed crap! 😬

For me, it’s that scene in the first movie where he walks out of the hospital, finds that old trench coat, and ends up lying right under a gutter. Water just pours all over him—if he had moved just six inches to the left, he would've stayed dry... 😁
redwalker6 said:I’ve only actually sat through the first two. Honestly, the original beats the sequel. The second one isn't terrible, but nothing beats that first movie—especially since it was directed by Sam Raimi, and I definitely preferred Liam Neeson over Arnold Vosloo. Haven't gotten around to the third one yet.
They actually aired all three on an American network a few months back... they ran from midnight straight through to 5 AM.
This movie actually has three sequels in total. In the first one, you’ve got Liam Neeson leading the cast. Then, in both the second and third installments, Arnold Vosloo takes over the lead role.
So, who do you think killed it more? And what’s your overall take on the series?
Gregory Mendoza3 ..... a few years back, my flare-ups weren't even that widespread. I didn't have those tiny little spots; for the most part, it was just patches about the size of my palm. My doctor spent an entire year prescribing mountains of different creams, but honestly? Nothing worked. Then came the turning point... my doctor went on vacation, and since she wasn't available, I got a referral to see a specialist at a major clinic in the city. I met with a doctor there who told me that if I wanted, I could just stay at their facility for treatment since they had an open bed in the ward. Of course, I jumped at the chance! After just one month, the results were absolutely incredible... not a single trace of psoriasis left. Fast forward two years, and I’ve noticed a little bit popping up on my elbows again. If you have any way to get seen at that clinic, I really think you should just commit to the treatment right away.

She basically wrote him off the second she saw him, and she isn't offering any hope for recovery whatsoever (but I won't go into detail because I'll just end up getting a massive lecture from people who'll lose their minds).
And regarding this whole situation—they wouldn't even admit her to the hospital, let alone talk about surgery. They just dismissed her entirely; that’s just how those places operate. You have to get things "moving" first, and then there might actually be some hope for an operation...
northernfox9 said:My dad has basically started boycotting anything involving common sense. Even though his test results are actually phenomenal given his diagnosis (his markers are dropping and are well within the healthy range), he told my mom yesterday morning that he’s done with everything. He said he doesn't want any more home-cooked meals, won't touch any "supplements" anymore (beetroot, herbal teas, aloe vera, etc.), isn't drinking his honey tonic, and just refuses to eat anything at all. He even told her that he’s going to make our lives a living hell until we finally give up on him—and once we do, he’ll leave and we’ll never see him again. He's been sticking to this since yesterday. For days now, he hasn't spoken to his mom or brother (for reasons of his own). He isn't answering anyone's calls, won't call anyone back, and if anyone tries to visit, he "handles" them almost immediately by making excuses about being tired or having somewhere to be, just to get them out the door... The reason? He thinks there's no point in doing any of this because nothing he's done so far seems to have helped (???!). PLEASE PEOPLE, WHAT DO WE DO? HOW DO WE GET HIM TO SNAP OUT OF IT?! Being nice isn't working, and being tough isn't working either. And please, don't just tell me to send him to the doctor—she basically wrote him off the moment she saw him, and she offers absolutely zero hope for recovery (but I don't want to talk about that, or I'll just end up exploding in anger).
Oh man, that sounds awful... maybe just try telling him how much progress he's actually made with those supplements and remind him that with Bog's help, he can get through anything. Tell him you need him around because you love him, and that's why he has to keep fighting. My aunt once told me she didn't care about herself at all; in moments like this, it's actually pretty normal because people feel so helpless (I even felt that way for her myself). I told her that even if she doesn't care about herself, the rest of us do, and that thinking that way is just selfish. You simply have to fight. You all have to stay strong...
Hey everyone, I’ve been dealing with a frustrating issue for a few years now, and even after seeing several specialists, nobody can give me a straight answer. I wanted to post here in case anyone else has gone through something similar. It’s this strange sensation of coldness on the right side of my head. Even just a tiny bit of airflow—like a light breeze or a draft—makes the skin around my right eye and ear feel icy. I’ve gone through the whole gauntlet of tests (MRI, CT scans, EMG, X-rays, etc.), and they did find a herniated disc between my C4 and C5 vertebrae. However, neither my neurologist nor my physical therapist is convinced that the disc is actually what's causing this specific sensation. I’m currently in physical therapy, but honestly, I haven't felt any improvement at all. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this, or does anyone have any ideas on what might be going on?
My aunt just went through surgery to remove two brain metastases. Since they were located in the left temporoparietal region, they were pressing against her speech centers and affecting the coordination in her right arm and leg. It seems like the worst is over, though, because she’s starting to talk again and can even walk to the bathroom on her own. We were terrified she might end up paralyzed or lose her ability to speak, but thank God, the surgery was a success. As for the primary source, the doctors suspect a growth on her face—something she’s had for years that never really bothered her, though it has been growing lately. They think it might be a calcified parotid gland that's undergoing some changes. Now, we’re just waiting for her to recover from the surgery before moving on to a tissue biopsy of the gland and, hopefully, its removal if everything goes well. After that, I’m not entirely sure what the next steps are—maybe chemo or radiation... I just don't know. We’ve been using Biocil-culi, which we've heard great things about, along with Tahitian Noni-koga from Calivita. Her diet is strictly vegetarian, mostly whole grains and veggies, very little fruit, and she follows macrobiotic principles. One thing to note: the instructions for Biocil mention that people dealing with this should strictly avoid foods high in B-complex vitamins, like bananas... just thought I'd share that info with you all.😳 Sending you all so much love and support.🙂
Can anyone suggest a reliable pregnancy test? I’m currently on my second day of a missed period, and things have been super confusing. I started with a Chronolab test first thing in the morning, which showed a very faint positive line. I left the sample sitting out for about 20-30 minutes while I ran to the drugstore to grab a Clearblue, but when I tested with the same sample, it came back negative. Later that afternoon, I tried an Intim Plus, but I messed up and held it horizontally instead of vertically—which I know was wrong—but it still showed a negative result. Today is my fifth day since my period was due, and I tried the Chronolab again in the afternoon, but it showed nothing. Then I did a direct test, adding just 2-3 drops after five minutes, and it was also negative, though that one was probably invalid since I didn't follow the instructions properly. It seems like the Chronolab isn't something I can trust, so I'm looking for recommendations on what to buy before I head to my OB-GYN. That first faint positive really threw me for a loop, especially after the Clearblue came back negative. Does it make a difference if the urine sample sat out for that long?

Here we goooo... I'm on my way! 😍
Robin Nelson22 said:In the summer, you can go cliff jumping at the beach in Santa Barbara, though the drop isn't quite as high as it is at the Golden Gate Bridge. People say that's the best spot around. I’ve been planning to make the jump for a few years now, but summer always slips away before I actually get around to doing it. I am absolutely jumping this year! No excuses!👍
That’s even closer to me. 😍
