I just think whaddaya mean? She stumps about like a longshoreman with gout.

She does have an odd loping walk, but this brings up one of my filmmaking pet peeves:

Everyone looks unnatural when shown in full body walking toward the camera. I do not know why this is, but it is true.

When directors are shooting actors like Julia Roberts who are known for their legs, they shoot them walking in full body, and it always looks unnatural. Shot from the side or 3/4, they look as though they are moving normally.

I can also recommend the Italian Job. ... Ed Norton is actually the weak link in it, but I'm not sure why ....

Anyone seen the Eye? I'm dying to see that.

The previews of the Hulk seemed way too animated. This is not the case?

I also liked the Italian Job, but then I have a thing for both Marky Mark and Jason Statham, so i was pretty happy throughout. My understanding is that Edward Norton made it very clear that he was only doing the movie because of contractual obligations. I don't understand why. It looked like it was a fun movie to be in.

I've had no patience for Julia since her Oscar acceptance gushing, as followed up the next year with her trying to steal the limelight from Denzel. I think she used to be kind of cute in all her formula movies (in particular, Notting Hill was a good movie), but my love for her is gone...

Charlize is gorgeous. I don't see any puffy-cheek thing with her. And I will again say that I seriously doubt that every actress with puffy cheeks has some sort of eating disorder.

If I could be any fictional character, it would be Nora Charles.

Second that.

The Thin Man is now out on dvd.

I have broad taste, I just prefer my misogynist movies more Neil LaBute than David Mamet. I am not saying Spanish Prisoner sucked because I got bored and turned it off. So it might have been great, it was just too Mamet. Same thing with the Heist. Yuck.

Whatever you said about Singles I say about Neil LaBute. And I am not superfamiliar with Mamet but SPanish Prisoner was great. Hey, it had Stever Martin in it. The man's appearance in any film makes it worth watching.

Did you just call me Coltrane?

Ahhh I remember those wonderful days when it was guaranteed that if Charlize was in a movie, she would at some time take her clothes off.

Sitting through Bagger Vance with that expectation and realizing that the trend had ended made me hate Will Smith even more. If ANY movie needed nudity, it was Bagger Vance...

I will request one from our picture guru, M_R.

OK, this inspired me to try to figure out exactly in which movies I have not been annoyed by JR. They include:

Pretty Woman (though Gere was REALLY annoying)
The Mexican
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (but it was a near thing)

That's it.
