Frank Booth Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Midnight Cowboy, it was on TV in the early hours of this morning. It was the first X (that's 18 in new money) rated movie to win the Oscar for best picture and has 2 great bits of music on the soundtrack, "Everybody's Talking" by Harry Nilsson and the harmonica playing "Theme from Midnight Cowboy" An excellent movie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Please tell me that you are kidding????The most illogical film I've seen 636033[/snapback] No, I'm not kidding. How is it illogical? And also, I watched the film for enjoyment, not to study it's scientific accuracies or inaccuracies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyTON Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Okay, it's fucking freezing and if we go outside for any length of time we'll die. So, do we... A ) Stay in this nice warm building which has fire. OR B ) Walk to our deaths Only 4/5 out of everyone makes the right decision. Also, the dad should have died hours before he reaches them, but doesn't... despite the fact it was him that said you couldn't go outside! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most movies require you to leave your brain at the door and enjoy the drama/tension/horror 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyTON Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Some common sense wouldn't go a miss though, in a film where natural disaster is the theme. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cityfan Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 No, I'm not kidding. How is it illogical? 637887[/snapback] Celtic are on it playing Man Utd and "Celtic" are wearing a blue strip. Theres one reason 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dad was wearing special equipment that would have allowed him to stay out in the temperatures, such equipment that he uses to walk around in the antartcic etc. Normal people wouldnt survive outside, but with the correct equipment you could Celtic are on it playing Man Utd and "Celtic" are wearing a blue strip.Theres one reason 638351[/snapback] Talk about nitpicking :- a) Most people seeing the movie wouldnt have a clue about that innacuracy and :- B) Those that would have a clue didnt notice it (ie. me) so there would be very few people in the world that noticed that. I thought it was a great film, and something that you never know, may infact happen in real life. Yes it is science fiction so im not saying it will, but there is a possibility. Debbie, you were right 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintSam Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Ocean's 12.Pure pash. Not even the eye candy could save it from it's own smugness. 3/10 636976[/snapback] I was thoroughly disappointed with it. They really failed to deliver this time round. Goes to show some brilliant films should just be left well alone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debbie, you were right 638362[/snapback] it was tounge in cheek nitpicking Its the only inaccuracy i noticed in the film and it was only because my celtic fan mate pointed it out, proberly would'nt of noticed it otherwise. We watched it in my biology class last year as an end of term treat (werent we spoiled!) and my biology teacher kept muttering "rubbish" "wouldnt happen" "unrealistic" all the way through, so i guess for people like biology teachers and geography teachers, they love to criticise this film. just like with braveheart, most scottish people who knew anything about history wouldnt like most bits of braveheart but other people will love it for the entertainment.

Musketeer Gripweed Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Just watched Minority Report again. Well until I got bored with it. I like the film though until the last half hour. One of Tome Cruise's better efforts. Who is that Precog lassie though. I am sure she is British. What else was she in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half A Person Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Hotel Rwanda 8/10 the sentiment was a bit overdone eg the swelling strings and it was no Schindlers List, but still a great film with really good performances from all the actors 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
