Good grief, what kind of garbage is this movie? Is the public really that mindless to pull in millions at the box office for this? I just want to know who is pushing Jennifer when she already has an Academy Award 🤦
Hey everyone, figured I'd jump into this thread. 🙂
Here is what I am looking at today:
Dynamo Moscow 2 - They are simply higher quality than the home team and have much better depth. I've been following them every week hoping for a win, but they keep dropping points. This squad belongs at the top of the table, not at the bottom.
Standard 3+ - The only Belgian match on the schedule this weekend? Expecting 3 or more goals here.
Atletico Madrid 1 - Vallecano plays a physical game, but I think Madrid takes this one. It’s a solid play with decent odds around 1.45.
Moderators, move this if I'm in the wrong section. My girlfriend takes Diana 35 birth control (or something similar, I can't recall the exact name). We went on vacation and she wanted to delay her period. Her doctor told her to keep taking the pills to prevent it from starting. During our trip, we had sex several times and I finished inside her. Now her period is three days late. I'm wondering if there's a chance she could be pregnant, even though she was taking the pills consistently and they are supposed to be reliable. What could be going on here?

I've only seen Terminator Salvation, but I heard he was throwing his back out in the other movies too. Would he even be able to save the world at that point?😁I don't know. To me, he’s just one of those stuck-up actors who keeps a completely blank expression whether he's laughing or crying. I'm just not a fan.

And look, I don't hate Cage at all, it's just that he didn't feel like the perfect fit for this specific part—I mean, wouldn't someone like Christian Bale have been interesting to see instead? But, you gotta give it to him, Cage actually managed to pull it off and really lean into the character.
I'm really crossing my fingers that the sequel steps things up and beats the first one! Wouldn't it be wild if they shook things up with the casting for a change? Imagine if they brought in someone like Christian Bale or maybe Kate Beckinsale or even Charlize Theron to lead the charge? Anyway, if you're wondering about my take on the original, I'd say it was a 4/10.
Fair enough. I agree a change could happen, but let's not go with Bale😁. The guy is already Batman and John Connor; he's done plenty of roles lately and might be overexposed. I just hope Worthington doesn't get a part because he's a joke👎👎
The first one was really solid. My biggest issue was seeing Cage in that role because I just couldn't picture him there, but in the end, it turned out to be a good movie....
TT Syndrome is a pretty decent horror flick. It has a few scenes that are genuinely stomach-turning, and the plot keeps you hooked, so I’d recommend it. Labyrinth is more of a thriller starring Jack Nicholson and Gene Hackman. To clarify what someone else mentioned earlier: the guy falls for his own daughter without realizing who she is, and then his ex-wife gets her revenge by trapping him in a Labyrinth where he has to find a way out. I found The Butterfly was absolutely terrifying when I first saw it; it's a shame it's a bit too short. Holy Land is another solid horror entry. Dead Zone actually pulled in great reviews, so there are definitely a few American films worth checking out.
David Price5 said:Not so fast. Back then, nobody knew if Avatar would actually take off. He was still nowhere near that Hollywood A-list status where actors pull in $20 million per movie..
Well, we know how successful Avatar was. Given his recent films, he’s definitely going to be one of the most in-demand actors out there. Personally, I find his expressions a bit repetitive—he always has the same look whether he's laughing or terrified. He isn't anything special to me, but hey, luck plays a role too.
cosmiclynx57 said:It’s wild how one actor hit the jackpot three times in a row—first with Clash of the Titans, then Avatar, and now this movie. I'm talking about Sam Worthington, obviously.
Does anyone know his actual earnings from Clash of the Titans and Avatar?
I don't have the exact figure, but he definitely won't need to work again after this.
Jack Nicholson in "A Few Good Men," his role in "Heat," and Al Pacino in "The Godfather"—I can't think of many others right now, but those are all absolute cinematic classics.
Based on the trailer I watched, there’s nothing groundbreaking here. It’s just the usual vampire trope—everyone searching for a cure, blah blah blah. I don't want to judge too early, but I really hope the whole movie isn't just built on that one tired idea.
I downloaded it a few days ago and watched just a few minutes. It didn't grab me immediately, but I've read plenty of great reviews, so I'm going to finish it...
Look, I haven't been watching much lately either, but from what I've seen, movies like this are rare. The one I mentioned is actually great. It's about a kid growing up without a father, constantly getting into trouble, until he moves to a new town and everything changes.
Never Back Down—That's the one. I highly recommend you check it out. You won't regret it.
Yeah, the legendary Fred Duke🙏🙏. I remember being a kid and thinking if I had even a tenth of Duke's strength, I could take on anyone😁. But we were just young and stupid. Honestly, the movie is excellent. I actually rewatched it a few nights ago. Van Damme is a true master of martial arts, and in my opinion, this is his best work. I’ve always liked films centered around tournaments and stuff like that. As far as newer movies go, I think Never Back Down is pretty good.👍

Jack Nicholson Robert De Niro Robert De Niro. He’s got 3 Oscars under his belt, plus another 64 wins and 46 nominations.
Robert De Niro Jack Nicholson Jack Nicholson won 2 Oscars. He also holds 28 other wins and 34 nominations.
I ovo za Hoffmana ti nije nikakav argument, dok daš nekakav argument za njega, onda možemo razgovarati...
I agree with that comparison. It’s honestly silly to try and claim De Niro is better than Nicholson or Al Pacino. To me, De Niro is just an average actor, whereas those two are on a different level.🙏🙏🙏🙏If there are characters more iconic than Johnny from The Shining or Michael Corleone, then that actor deserves the win. All I know is that De Niro hasn't come anywhere close to creating a role like that.
It’s obvious he’s your favorite actor😁 but personally, I think Jack Nicholson is better. Sure, he’s slowed down lately, but De Niro is great too. For some reason, Nicholson's films just resonate more with me. No hard feelings.🙂
