If you like cheesy low-budget (but relatively well-done) light zombie movies, this is your flick. Highly recommended, even if the comely strippers only show their tits. The pimp who ultimately uses the bitch-slap fighting style against the zombie strippers (or were they hookers?) is just all kinds of awesome!
I mean come on, that almost reads like an Onion article. You'd think they'd throw the family like $50 grand or something to get them a decent place.
NEW DELHI (AFP) – The father of one of the child stars of the Oscar-winning film "Slumdog Millionaire" slapped him for refusing to give media interviews, a report said.
Ten-year-old Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail, plucked from a Mumbai slum to play in the movie, has been barraged by media attention since returning to his shanty home earlier in the week from the Oscars awards ceremony in Los Angeles.
Jet-lagged after the long flight, Azharuddin wanted to sleep and refused to talk to reporters when his father got angry and slapped him, the Press Trust of India reported Saturday.
"I was being naughty. I did not want to give the interview because I was tired so he slapped me but he loves me," said Azharuddin, who came back Thursday to his tarpaulin-covered lean-to home.
Azharuddin -- Azhar to his friends -- plays the young Salim, elder brother of the film's central character Jamal.
Azharuddin's father Mohammed Ismial, who suffers from tuberculosis and sells cardboard to eke out a living, told the news agency, "My child was very tired and bored but I had committed to one journalist (to give him an interview).
"I felt badly when he refused him (the journalist). He is my child and I just slapped him but I feel sorry now," Ismial said.
Azharuddin and the other child "Slumdog" actor who went to Hollywood, Rubina Ali, have shot to fame with the huge success of the film, winner of eight Oscars.
But they both still live in slums that are home to half of Mumbai's population.
Rubina's return has not been smooth either.
The child, who plays the younger version of Jamal's love interest Latika, came back to a warring family with both her biological mother Khushi and her step-mother Munni claiming custody of her, media reports say.
Rubina lives with her father Rafiq Qureshi and step-mother.
Azhar and Rubina attend an English-medium school for underprivileged children and a trust fund has been set up for them until they are 18. They also get a monthly stipend.
I'm reppin' Jesus Christ and Conservative views....
Quick piece by VINNY which was a logo style of his. VINNY also did two letter throw up's by the name of FI 2.
GO WHITE!
Saw Watchmen today. My personal hype meter was off the charts for this one and I thought it lived up to every bit of it.
Yea unlike V for Vendetta(solid movie, not so solid adaptation), it stuck to the book as much as i've seen any comic to film setup. Everybody was the same contradicting bastards they were in the book. Amazing adaptation, even the couple changes were solid and still in line with books themes. Kudos to Zack Snyder, he may never get props from alan moore, but his adaptation of Moore's work is as good as you can get.

Good call. The only thing that kept me watching was waiting for that thing on Pacino's head (I guess it passes for hair) to wake up and claw his eyes out. I thought there was a plot twist coming, and I was hoping that Pacino's toupee was actually a Tasmanian Devil that would rise up whenever he went into a drunken stupor (which, as I understand, only happens nowadays when Pacino is in front of a camera) and do all the killing. To find out that I was right, that Pacino was the killer, made me mad because that took 13 seconds and the next two hours (or whatever) was a total waste.
I think I'm going to rewrite the script with Pacino's toupee as a Tasmanian Devil/serial killer and I guarnFUCKINGtee he'll win an Oscar for that.

Winning breeds confidence. Losing breeds reality.
that's exactly the movie. Hmmm let's set up Pacino in the first fucking minute as the really smart, chess-playing, slightly wacko of the two and hope no one gets it.
I would definitely have enjoyed your version more.

I saw a no-budget movie called Interception, where everything about it had a touch of the dumbass.
The best line? "Software must be finalized, or encrypted, before it can be run on a computer." and a general theme that programmers are encrypters, and if they do the encryption wrong things go boom.
Not worth seeing, though...
lol@anyone who brought their kids to see the watchmen. Learn the meaning of rated R

Redbelt is uneven, but has many entertaining moments. If you're looking for a big-ass mixed martial arts fight movie, you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for a fine character piece about a lone warrior trying to walk the path of truth, and a great performance by Ejiofor, this is your film. Some plot elements work, while others don't, and it would've been better with less plot elements. Overall though, this is a thumbs-up and a worthy rental.
