Re: rate the last movie you saw
The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan (6/10) How many times are they going to remake this story? Ok, I'll accept than an actual French adaptation of a story written by a Frenchman is valid. But this is a very uneven movie which ultimately doesn't work. First the good. This film is visually sumptuous, wi...

^^ I'd hazard a guess Ridley Scott won't be casting Brian Cox in his films anytime soon.

Re: rate the last movie you saw
The Ten Commandments (9/10) My first viewing in five years. DeMille's picture remains one of great epics -- biblical or otherwise -- and every subsequent epic, Ben-Hur, Spartacus, Lawrence of Arabia, Gladiator , et all -- stands on its shoulders. I reviewed it in detail after my previous screening ...

Re: Andy's Youtube Uploads - Post-Siskel & Ebert SNEAK PREVIEWS Archive Unearthed
This week is a good show -- imagine THE WARRIORS, THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY and HARDCORE all in theaters at the same time. A whole different universe than the crap sent out to audiences today. I liked The Warriors myself, but (as you probably recall Andy) was laughing during much of Hardcore ! I agre...

I know that Kingdom of Heaven was not improved by the restoration of footage. I doubt it will help Napoleon.

Incredible she had to tell Steven and George to shoot the RAIDERS ending with Indy and Marion that was scripted -- yet they felt they didn't need it! :lol: :lol: People tend to assume the writer and director come-up with all the ideas, but in reality the director is working with a bunch of creative...

I suspect it had something to do with Bernstein having been grey-listed in Hollywood for several years (from which he was rescued by DeMille). Of course as valu...

Re: Neil Armstrong Movie Airbrushes History
A movie that nobody saw and was very quickly forgotten by those who saw it pretty much. That is one other thing about the current pop culture -- if nobody finds it straightaway, nobody is going to. There isn't even a $5 dump in at Walmart for these to sit in anymore. Unsuccessful movies are basical...
