Robert Cooper41 said:He’s one of those "visionary" directors who shoots without a real script... basically just winging it based on vibes (which is code for whatever he can scrape together from a budget that already blew past 😁 ). During the filming of 2046, even the cast had no clue what to tell reporters about the plot 😂. To top it off, a few actors did cameos that WKW ended up cutting just because he changed his mind!? But hey, as long as the French government keeps handing him blank checks... why should he care 😁
doesn't look like everyone made the cut for the poster, though... :-)

My little cousin was always a disaster in school... just straight up failing... maybe he had talent for something else, but I won't go there, but school? A total catastrophe. My god, he didn't learn his letters until third grade... addition in eighth... subtraction in high school... and he finally figured out multiplication in his mid-twenties.... Still, I remember when he once pulled a C... we threw this massive party, and his parents were acting so incredibly proud... The truth is, it was a damn C and the party was kind of a bore, but for him (and honestly, for us too), it felt like a big deal.... .... ..oh yeah, forgot to mention the photos turned out great... :-)

His heart just gave out. 😢 It actually hit me pretty hard, even though I mostly just knew him as the guy who played Superman and later dealt with being paralyzed. I guess seeing the guy who played Superman end up like that just sticks with you. Not sure why it's getting to me this much. 🙂 Rest in peace.
Dana Anderson4 said:He can't just hand back the money for Metallica because he'd have to file for bankruptcy. He basically has to wait until his next big project hits so he can settle those debts... so yeah, just go ahead and buy more tickets.
Exactly. Just be patient, everyone. It’s all for your own good, really...🙄
After doing a little digging... (good job me 😁 )...it looks like Kevin Smith's bout with sentimental madness has been extended indefinitely, because he's actually decided to make a movie... supposedly starting in January 2005... the plot is basically "whatever happened to those guys," according to Smith... Oh, and he says it'll be the opposite of 'Jersey Girl'... what's that even mean? Good? 😁

Yeah, word is they even tried to get Smith to crack a tear and film a sequel in a fit of pure sentimentality.😁
Then she gives me this little smile and says, "Well, obviously she stayed because he has such a killer apartment." Screw the apartment... seriously, I hope everyone living in those luxury condos just drops dead. And who’s to blame? Nobody. It's everything and nothing all at once. Who even bothers waiting to get out of prison these days? You fall in love, you kill yourself... forget love, just like that fake uncle guy used to say... What do you guys think—is it actually worth killing someone over a woman? (Don't answer that).... … And Akine, do us all a favor and stay away from movies like this... As far as I'm concerned, my movie year is officially over.
Man, I love these lists... though here I go again, having to point out that the criteria are totally off. What does "overlooked" even mean? Neglected? Or just movies that didn't get the credit they deserved? The reality is that some of these films are masterpieces and critics love them, but they just weren't built to be massive box office hits (think *Jaws*, *The First Blood*, or Jackson's creature features). Whether it’s the subject matter or the style, the audience for those kinds of flicks is always going to be niche. To me, an "overlooked" movie is one that actually had the legs to become a mainstream phenomenon if things had gone differently. Honestly, they might as well start listing indie darlings like Mike Leigh or Moodysson at this rate. ... Personally, I think *Strange Days* and *Dark City* definitely had that "something more" potential. And I still don't get why *Jackie Brown* felt like such a lukewarm reception, especially since Tarantino had enough hype behind him to carry just about anything. .. But hey, like the old saying goes: "If a list starts an argument, it did its job."😁

Haha, unbelievable... I think you nailed it. It’s not a bad movie, but you walk away feeling like they completely wasted all that potential... ...plus those lines about being an American citizen and how we should all just stick together felt really forced and unnecessary...
