Proportionally, a toothpick with raisins has some pretty damn big boobs.Quote:

you must be referring to the 2006 bosworth (with her weight issues). She looked pretty good in 21.Quote:

On another note, I saw the straight-to-video WarGames 2. It's ok in the "bad movie" sort of way. If you go in thinking it will hold a candle to the original WarGames, be prepared to be VERY disappointed. The technology simply does not work the way it's presented in the movie, despite the director's commentary saying otherwise.
I also saw the straight-to-video low-budget Zombies: Anonymous, which was actually fairly decent. The premise is that zombies have their mental faculties when they die, so you have the living and the "mortally challenged". There's gore, some humor, some sympathetic moments for the zombies. And the lead actress is a cutie... think Buffy with a hotter body.
You Kill Me is about an assassin (Ben Kingsley) who's having a hard time of it. He goes into Alcoholics Anonymous and falls in love with a woman who's just a little off (Tea Leoni). It's not quite a romantic comedy and not quite a hitman kinda film and the pace meanders a bit and maybe Kingsley wasn't the right role for the lead (if Kingsley and Bill Pullman had swapped roles, that would've been ideal), but it's pleasant to watch.
Too much sympathy. Either way I dont care about that. she's not a Lois Lane. They should have got an attractive actress who yet in still embodied the not so attractive margot kidder's performance.Quote:

Not to interrupt the Bosworth discussion...
Saw Tropic Thunder this weekend. It definitely made me laugh periodically, but they tried to make it so stupid that it almost didn't work. Cruise, Downey and even *gasp* McConaughey were good in it.
I would say that if you haven't seen it, you can wait until it comes to HBO.
I'm not defending Bosworth, but attacking the script. Lois Lane in that script is a cipher to the end. Lois Lane as portrayed in the comics and other media since the '30s is not a cipher. And it results from the script's idiotic premise -- Superman flies away for years for something that's pretty stupid, which is as un-Superman a thing to do as Lois being cryptic. The acting was better than the script, which says a lot about how bad the script was.Quote:
