THANK YOU!!! 1999 had to be one of the most visionary and brillaint movie years EVER!!!

The Matrix
Being John Malkovich
Fight Club
The Insider
Star Wars Episode One
The Stright Story
Tarzan(Disney animated)
Eyes Wide Shut
American Beauty
The Three Kings
American Movie
Run Lola Run
American Pie
Perfect Blue(anime theatrical film)
Muppets From Space
...etc etc etc

2001 was a horrible year for mainstream films(Tomb Raider, Jurassic Park 3, Planet of the Apes) yet was a gold mine for the indie/foreign films like Waking Life, Amelie, Memento, Caveman's Valentine, With a Friend Like Harry, My First Mister, and Ghost World.

Im hoping this year will be a great mix of big budget and indie films.

Pirates of the Carabien (sp?) Between this and the Kangaroo thing, Jerry Brockheimer must REALLY be doing something at those Hollywood pot parties. Plus, after Country Bears, do you think that Disney should make another theme park ride based movie?

The movie I am really looking forward to (though it may not be in theaters till 2004... sigh..) the Great Vegatable Plot... the first full lenght Wallace and Grommet movie. It's kind of ironic. Animated films are usually 90 minutes... that's basically their entire 3 films.
First, I don't think that Pirates of the Caribean will be like Country Bears bc they're two completely different concepts! It won't be a weird kids movie, it'll be an action-adventure pirates movie which could be really good.
Second, They're making a full length Wallace and Grommit???? Yay!! I can't WAIT to see that!!!

According to that issue of Time I read, yes. Of course.... I can't remember the issue... I had to go in for an eye apointment and they put these drops in my eyes, so I had trouble seeing.

I hear their making a CGI Mighty Mouse Movie... don't have all the details!

They are most definitely in production with a full-length Wallace & Gromit movie. There was supposed to be another one before that, "The Tortoise and The Hare" but it's had production problems and at the moment I'm not sure which will come first.

There's also a bunch of Wallace & Gromit web exclusive shorts at the following site:

Unfortunately, other than a preview, you have to pay to see the rest. But these shorts are being used as concept tests and training for the upcoming movie.

HA! THat's the best one yet! GEE, I WONDER How you could FIND OUT!




"hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm."

OH YEAH! It's only the best book of the 20th century! DUH!

and by the way, it's not Lord of the Rings 3. It's the third division of the same story. Lord of the Rings is (when properly published) one book only. Early on publishers thought it wouldn't sell well so they forced Tolkien to break it up into three books.



sorry about being so imposing with my opinion, but I think as all of you will hopefully realize, it's for your own good. :wink:

So that's why the very 'end' of LOTR FOTR SUCKED so bad(was like a spit in the face with that cheap non abrupt ending)

Luckily the first 5 minutes of LOTR TTT acted as the epic ending to LOTR 1.
