    Umm, I suppose they are hackers, so that isn't meant to be good, but then only they can save the world from some evil computer thing and then they win and the world loves them. Tell me if I'm somewhat close? I'm just guessing here...

    badlands is cool... but i was headachey whilst watching it... so it didn't make sense, cuz i couldn't understand the accents. the same thing happened in spirited away. the lesson? never watch films whilst headachey

    The Big Lebowski.

    It's one of the most quotable movies ever.
    "Are those Nazis?"
    "No Donny, those are nihilists. They're nothing to be afraid of."

    i saw american history x last week, and that was great. it, along with spirited away, is the only film that made me cry, cuz ER doesn't count as a film.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 292 ✭✭Spenguin


    ER makes you cry?? Okee dokee then. The only film that I can remember making me cry is 'jack' starring robin williams. The scene when they won't take the basketball from him because they think he's a freak, and he hides in the pipe, and the girls poke him with a stick and then he's all alone and he looks really sad made me cry... Then later on they made him and all his pervert friends make the movie less sad so I didn't like it anymore. But still, that one scene got to me. Oo, 'The emperors new groove' is my favourite disney movie. You wouldn't think it would be so incredibly funny if it was rated U but i loved that film so much.
    YAY, I'M A LLAMA AGAIN!!
    Brilliant. Lilo and stich wasn't bad either.

    I cried at the end of Saving Private Ryan. I also cried at the end of The Land Before Time, but I was 5 at the time.

    I just saw finding nemo yesterday. It was brilliant. Dory was hilarious. I WANNA SEE IT AGAYN. so funny, if you haven't seen it, i'd advise you too. then my friend tried to hug me twice. First time she knocked me down and we were lying on the ormonde floor for a while, and the second time she punched me in the face. heh heh. Whales.

    ER doesn't make you cry? You heartless pirate, you! ER has made me cry a lot. And I cryed at Moulin Rouge, The Green Mile, A beautiful Mind, Schindlers List and loads of others that i cant think of right now. I'm a big old crybaby really.

    And i'm adding Dead Poets Society to my list cos yeah, that's great.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 292 ✭✭Spenguin


    Now lets not go throwing harsh terms about the place kate. I suppose it could make you cry... cry with impatience for the next show to come on! ER is stoopid.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 John1188


    everyone should add it to their list whether they've seen it or not!
    it is the epitimy of it's genre and a few other genres aswell!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 748 ✭✭✭Zounds


    ok, this isn't exactly on topic but could someone please explain the end of Donie Darko to me?
    Is he just insane?
    Was it a dream?
    Was it all true?
    Did he go back in time and let himself be killed?
    I'M CONFUSED!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,196 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    Go to the film board. search for Donnie Darko. there are about 70 explanations in total.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 69 ✭✭malecO


    Ah Donnie Darko. Loved that movie. One of every teenager's favourite films.

    And I cryed at Moulin Rouge, The Green Mile, A beautiful Mind, Schindlers List
    cried at all those.
    three times during private ryan.
    forrest gump, cried at that.
    castaway, cried at that.
    tom hanks is a big ole' bitch for weepy films.
    cried at all those b/w's where the chick has a terminal illness and dies at the end.
    cry at any film with even a bit of sadness in it.
    hell i even cried at stepmom. WHICH JUST PULLS AT MY FRAIL HEARTSTRINGS.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 458 ✭✭ll=llannah


    you have to be heartless not to cry at saving private ryan. cruel and heartless and indecent. and i'm not just rationalising.

    "you have to be heartless not to cry at saving private ryan. cruel and heartless and indecent. and i'm not just rationalising."

    why? how is it cruel to not cry for a fictional story? how is it common decency to cry at the sheer ineptitude of mankind? and as for heartless, peoples hearts rest in different places, movies aren't always one of them.
