-- I cannot believe they are making a movie starring Nicholas Cage about 9/11. This is ridiculous. NOTHING will be as moving or have the impact as all the REALITY based documentaries that have aired since the event.
Here's what I am hoping to see, however, in this OLIVER STONE cinematic surreal nightmare: I hope they include a scene, even a brief 30 second spot, of a couple (or more) who are trapped above either of the impacts and know they are gonna croak, so they start FUCKING their brains out in their last moments on earth. This would be great, as well as add realism to the flick. We all KNOW there HAD to be at least one couple doing this ... I'd hope so anyway. Let's hope...
-- I have been watching HBO's ROME and I heard a line in the episode that made me think of Amy Ried, her reputed 2000/scene fee, and her recent departure. When Young Octavian (Augustus CAesar) is taken to a high class Roman Brothel to 'penetrate' for the first time, he chooses a beautiful whore with a steep price. His Handler, when told the girl would be 1000 drachma, the handler replies "For 1000 the girl better FUCK like Helen of Troy with her Ass on Fire..." I wonder if any porn producer uttered those words when trying to book Amy...
-- "Trainspotting" is an awesome film. Brutally funny, it is a must see when you and your new girlfriend reach the 1 month marker...The Soccer/Heroin metaphors are classic...
