Nollaig Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 What is this Moon you speak of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Here's the synopsis for you, Roxi, from IMDB: Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is nearing the end of his contract with Lunar. He has been a faithful employee for three long years. His home has been Selene, a moon base where he has spent his days alone, mining Helium-3. The precious gas holds the key to reversing the Earth's energy crisis. Isolated, determined, and steadfast, Sam has followed the rulebook obediently, and his time on the moon has been enlightening, but uneventful. The solitude has given him time to reflect on the mistakes of his past and to work on his raging temper. He does his job mechanically and spends most of his available time dreaming of his imminent return to Earth, to his wife, young daughter and an early retirement. But two weeks shy of his departure from Selene, Sam starts seeing things, hearing things, and feeling strange. And, when a routine extraction goes horribly wrong, he discovers that Lunar have their own plans for replacing him and that the new recruit is eerily familiar. Before he can return to Earth, Sam has to confront himself and the discovery that the life he has created may not be his own. It's more than his contract that is set to expire. FYI, this film is being released this month in the US and on 17 July in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetiiPie85 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Alice in Wonderland film adaptation of course! I'll be down to the cinema for that one for definite. I can't wait for Alice in Wonderland either and I also want to see The Proposal, My Sister's Keeper, Public Enemies, The Imaginarum of Doctor Parnassus (Heath Ledger's last film) - (The list is endless) . There is a film coming out in September which I would really like to see called Dorian Gray which is based on the book The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. The film sounds really good so I think I will read the book before the film is released. Has anyone read this book? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several of us on here love Oscar Wilde and that book, and we've all concluded that what we've seen of the movie seems to completely miss the point of the story and rip it to pieces. There's an additional character and everything. The original book is a satirical arguably gothic masterpiece about asthethics and morals and sarcastic wit. The movie looks like it's trying to be a gothic horror movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwish Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 My Sister's Keeper, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince and...Bruno...odd choice there. Seeing as I haven't liked anything before that Sacha Baron Cohen has done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanna Addison Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I haven't read the book no, but I have seen an old b/w film starring Angela Lansbury (as a young woman - she was quite pretty!) It also had George Sanders (voice of Shere Khan in the Walt Disney film!) I thought he was gorgeous. I am waiting for the Sherlock Holmes movie, Ice Age 3 and I have recently found out that there is going to be a Toy Story 3 and the rumoured fourth Pirates film sounds pretty exciting. Dorian Grey only appeals to me because it has the gorgeous Ben Barnes in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephanie2008 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I didn't realise Toy Story was out next year. I thought it would be a couple of years until they finished it. That's another of my favourite children's films Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollaig Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Yeah, I'll get him to say 'to infinity and beyond' and we'll have cookies and milk. All the while, Regan will be sitting at the end of your bed, not saying anything, just grinning at you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the while, Regan will be sitting at the end of your bed, not saying anything, just grinning at you. She's got you there rawr! Reading 'The Exorcist' by any chance? Careful your bed doesn't start floating to the ceiling in the middle of the night! On the topic of Toy Story, when my son was five he entered into a charity fun run dressed as Buzz Lightyear! My OH made him the body armour and arm bands out of papier mache and everything, he looked fantastic! He won first prize too for his age group! He hates looking at the pics now mind you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawr Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Right since i saw that i've been looking behind me as i'm at the top of the bed. Stop. Freaking. Me. Out. I have to walk around a more or less empty old house which creaks and groans all over the place, the last thing i want to have in my mind is that lunatic McNeil girl. How about Buzz takes his visor off and it's Regan demon face there? Eh?? Anyway. That sounds amazing Charm i love Buzz's spacesuit, it's cool! I love Rex the most!

Mr Potato Head is actually amazing and Slinky! Ah memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
