I'm surprised that no one has listed the first 30 minutes of Saving Private Ryan.

What you said.

(Buffy the Vampire Slayer, episode "The Body")

Absolutely one of the finest, most riveting hours the small screen has ever produced. And yes, I tear up as well when I see it. Anybody who has lost a parent can relate to it.

Have you all seen this story?

Superman" Bulge Causes Headaches
Posted: Tuesday December 13th, 2005 9:46pm
Source: The Sun
Author: Garth Franklin



There's always great cinematic urban legends that swirl around in regards to actor vanities and more especially, male endowments. Last year saw Colin Farrell get in a hub-bub over his cut scene from "A Home at the End of the World", this year came issues of Ioan Gruffudd's package in "Fantastic Four", and now next year's "Superman Returns" has gotten its own trash tale.

UK tabloid The Sun reports that the size of 26-year-old Brandon Routh's bulge in the superhero's skintight costume could be distracting enough that the studio has ordered the makers to cover it up with digital effects. Their source says "It's a major issue for the studio. Brandon is extremely well endowed and they don't want it up on the big screen. We may be forced to erase his package with digital effects".

Speaking with the costume designers earlier this year, they told us that whilst the bulge indeed was the most complicated issue in terms of the costuming, they worked out a practical solution involving a codpiece and special padding which ultimately negates the issue. Thus any stories of costly digital manipulation are as fake as those CG-enhanced Kevin Costner hair in "Waterworld" urban legends.

It's a Wonderful Life - George sees the light

I also love the part at the end where George's brother does the toast, "Here's to George, the richest man in town". What a beautiful movie.

371 replies to this post so far, and not a single one mentions Gardens of Stone".

"Goody" Nelson: You ever take biology in school, soldier?
Jackie Willow: Yes, Sergeant-Major.
"Goody" Nelson: How do worms copulate?
Jackie Willow: They don't, Sergeant-Major; they use asexual reproduction.
"Goody" Nelson: Mmmm-hmmmm! Interesting concept! Tell me, Willow -- any idea who first came up with that notion: reproducing without sex?
Jackie Willow: Your wife, Sergeant-Major?

Plus, the funeral scene for Lt. Jackie Willow, with Sgt Hazard's speech, and his widow's startled reaction to the gunfire during the 21 gun salute.

Gardens of Stone is one of the best movies about the VietNam war.
