What's the last movie you saw?


Recommended Posts

The Misfits with Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe.

Christ, she was so amazingly(well, she always had been) beautiful in that film despite the many troubles behind the scenes. Her beauty, what was underneath that beauty, and her role left me feeling somewhat melancholic. Added to that were seeing bits of myself in the characters played by Gable, Montgomery Clift, and Eli Wallach.

Theatre, Ponyo. It was cute and engaging, but not overly sappy like some older Miyazaki can be.

That's because, though completed with the help of his studio, it was Miyazaki's son, I believe, who was responsible for the film. I loved it.

I'm trying to remember the last film I saw at home. All I can recall at this moment is watching "Princess 9."

I have one request. It's a grammar request. This topic has been bothering me since it went up. Will someone please be so kind to change the topic from 'what is the last movie you seen' to 'what is the last movie you saw?' It's "you have seen" or "you saw," but not any jumble thereof. Thank you.

Yeah, ^ pretty much. Only I described it as "Dances with Wolves" meets "Final Fantasy," but it is a rehash of a very familiar plot line. Still, the effects are amazing and, in themselves, make it worth watching. And yet, for all the repetition of the plot, how is it that we haven't learned those lessons yet?

More grammar griping: In the original paragraph on "Pocahontas," there was a very poor sentence in that the listed items were not consistent in their grammatical content (parts of speech): "Furthermore she teaches him how to hunt, grow crops, and of her culture." It's okay because it's intelligible, but it would be better if, 1) a comma appeared after "furthermore," 2) the list either consisted entirely of verbs, verb-object combinations, or objects, and not a jumble thereof. As it is, it has one verb, one verb-object, and one object. It's not a nice sentence. It sounds even more awkward in the rewrite. But what I really mean to say is the grammar mistake in this topic title is really getting my panties all in a bunch. Will someone PLEASE fix it? Please? Please? Change "seen" to "saw." Thanks.

Paranormal Activity:

Biggest waste of an hour and a half of my life..... very disappointing and yet i somehow new it was gonna have that whole Blair Witch thing going.... :bomb_ie:

Holy shit. It's karma that this thread was in the index and you started it to criticize Paranormal Activity.

Bean and I just saw it on the theater and we want our $1.50 back. (Actually I want my $1.50 back, bean wants the 90 minutes of her life back)

THAT WAS SOOO AWFUL!!!! I barely made it through the movie because the jumpy camera work made me so nauseous, I felt like I was going to wretch. And it wasn't scary. UP was a scarier movie.

Hell, The Care Bears Movie was scarier than this.

I mean with that movie, you've got some real conflict.

Kim and Jason gave up caring! That is terrifying! I mean, giving up caring???!!!

And to make thinks even scarier, Nicholas, a friendless magician's assistant is seduced by an evil spirit!

The world may be robbed of love! And if that happens, it's the end of Carealot as we know it:ohmy: :no

SEDUCTION!

TRICKERY!

THE DESTRUCTION OF CAREALOT!

Oh my Oh no is right!

Compared to that, in PA, we have two annoying suburbanites, a douchebag and a whiner who just realized how to hit record on their camcorder.

It was a good movie night! Never mind that in both films, DeLongis' bit was over within the first ten minutes, "Wild Bill" and "Fearless" were worth the watch!

Ummm, you know I love you and Spook, but I fell asleep during Wild Bill.

Fearless was great though! I love when you have low expectations for a movie, and a movie turns out to be good, thereby blowing said expectations away, as anything rating a 2 on a 1-10 scale,

where 10 is Casablanca and -2 is Paranormal Activity, is a score!

what I really mean to say is the grammar mistake in this topic title is really getting my panties all in a bunch. Will someone PLEASE fix it? Please? Please? Change "seen" to "saw." Thanks.

You have out grammar-Nazi'd me by 1000

I personally prefer "What's the last movie you've seen?" myself

Don't forget that this movie is the first appearance of the

Carebear Cousins. They couldn't have done it without Lionheart and Brightheart.

    • ~~~~~ We received a letter about that a bit ago.  I know Corewell Health was included in the cyber attach as they were transitioning over from Beaumont Heath.
    • Excellent idea, since between your experience and Trene and Tron's ordeal they clearly aren't doing great things.   Also didn't Ascension just have a huge breach of their medical records because their cybersecurity department sucked?
    • ~~~~~ Yeah, a few years ago, Trene @Trene4000 had a seizure during an eye exam and the staff had to call an ambulance due to protocol even though she was just about to come out of it.  The ambulance crew arrived and caused her to relapse into another seizure and I ended up kicking everyone out of the room except for the one guy who seemed to have the most sense.  They stabilized her and then rushed to Ascension Macomb - Oakland Hospital, Warren Campus.   I followed shortly and no one would confirm if she was there or not.  I pointed out the ambulance she had just arrived in and they said I couldn't be in the ambulance entrance area.  So I went over to the other entrance and walked back over to the ambulance receiving area and this time they were able to speak to me because I was now on the correct side of the receptionist desk.     They told me to take a seat and they would let me in after they confirmed if an ambulance arrived with her in it.  Fortunately for me, the janitor watched everything that happened and when the lady left the desk 15 minutes later, he opened the door and let me in, told me where to go and said they always do that because they don't want to be bothered.   I did find her, already hooked up in an observation room and I stayed with her for over an hour.  Then I stated I was going to go to the cafeteria to grab some food and get her something for when they release her in 45 minutes (as we were told).  She was awake and aware and said ok.  However, by the time I got back 25 minutes later, she was zoned and moving in slow motion.  Her eyes kept rolling up into her head.   I flagged down a doctor and asked what happened to her because she was just fine.  Turns out they gave her some medication that they shouldn't have (because they didn't check her medical history) and she ended up having an allergic reaction, but whoever administered it didn't stay around long enough to "observe" her in the observation room.  I told them that she had severe reactions to certain things and they ended up giving her a counter medication and we then had to wait another 90 minutes for it to safely get out of her system.  Then she was discharged 25 minutes later.   I wanted to sue everyone who was involved in her "care".  I had told them that I was her legal guardian and that I MUST be informed of any medical treatment she received and no one spoke to me about anything, so they waited until I left the room and took matters into their own hands.  The fact that they were informed and didn't care is what still bothers me to this day so I panic whenever one of her doctors suggest an Ascension hospital for any of her procedures. 😬
