[Sleuth]

[Banky]

the TCM:next generation was great fucking cinema


can anyone find any early reviews?

[Ghostboy]

Head over to AICN, they've had several (mostly positive) reviews in the past few months.

I remember those Gear photos well. She later apologized for them, but I'll bet she was just sayin' that because her publicist made her.

TCM: The Next Generation really disappointed me a lot. I thought it was pretty awful.

i just found them and i was kinda shocked to see topless.  How did she apologize for them?

TCM: The Next Generation really disappointed me a lot. I thought it was pretty awful.

yeah it was god awful.  I saw it the other morning at like 8 on one of the multiple HBO's.  Its funny that Zellwegger and M.M. got really popular right after that film.  Zellwegger did Jerry Maguire the next year.  What the fuck were they thinking having a drag leather face.

[Cecil]

well leatherface is kinda in drag in the original as well. i think hes wearing a girly apron at the diner scene, right? it went farther (putting on makeup) but they cut that scene out

I never found the original very scary at all, and this was back when I was still sensitive to 'slasher' violence. First saw it many years back and had always been told that it was very scary, right up there with "Exorcist". Well, I finally worked up the courage to watch it, and wasn't scared at all. In fact, it takes a while for the kids to get to the house and get the gore going. I found it more creepy than anything. I'm not knocking it, I do like it and I will agree that it is a horror classic (the low budget gave a great sense of documentary to it since it's based on a true story) and don't really see a point for a remake (other than money), but I didn't think it was one of the 'scariest' movies ever made.

i didn't see this film until ...like last year  it really freaked me out i guess i can see ihow it's not scary but like cecil noted that its INSANe  its one f those films that get sundr your skin i thought i had to immediately watch something lite-hearted to get the sick feeeling out of my stomach..its films lke this an the exorcist that freak me out hte mostr b/c they seem real and "could happen to anyone"..kind of thing and not like jeepers creepers or child play. of ghoulies .....and i agreee w/ tremolosloth the final image is unerving............................

Marcus Nispel, whose feature directing debut The Texas Chainsaw Massacre opens tomorrow, is in talks to take on The Expendables for Warner Bros. Pictures. He will develop the action project with an eye to direct.

The film's plot is inspired by a real-life program at California's Chino prison in which convicts are taught diving skills that can provide them with lucrative salvage and ship-repair careers following their parole.

"Expendables" was originated by writer Scott Smith (The Score) and rewritten by Scott Rosenberg (Gone in Sixty Seconds).
