Any body passing through solid matter will leave a perforation conforming to its perimeter. Also called the silhouette of passage, this phenomenon is the speciality of victims of directed-pressure explosions and of reckless cowards who are so eager to escape that they exit directly through the wall of a house, leaving a cookie-cutout-perfect hole. The threat of skunks or matrimony often catalyzes this reaction.

Don't worry though, I'm not hard-core Trekkie. I just like the shows and movies, not the books or conventions and crap like that.

I watched "Cross of Iron" the other night. I had forgotten how much of an awesome movie this is and how under-reated it is. Sam Peckinpah was a genius and James Coburn was perfectly cast.
The Wild Bunch too - fantastic.

The worst movie at this time most be Final Fantasie, I havend seen it jet but the trailer is so bad...
In the trailer you hear the women say: This shoudn't be happening!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO......
This sound really bad, it's like when se yells NOOOO ect.
she's thinking about going home after a long day's work, and while she's thinking this she's picking her nose.
And the specail affects aren't so good niether.
This film is in one word: Bleh!
(pretty stong opinion from someone who has't seen it jet, eh? But usually I'm right about these things.)

Aegis: The Abyss isn't that bad with the plot. I liked it anyway
Rob-hin: Hmmmm... To each their own I guess. But I don't really think you can criticise the movie without even watching it. Even if you have seen the preview.

I ran out and saw Final Fantasy opening weekend, and I liked it...I knew it was doomed because of the universally bad reviews, but I think a lot of that is just sour grapes. The movie has its strong points and weak points in terms of plot, voice acting etc, but c'mon...it is a landmark in technology. Although people rejected it, the technology it showcases IS the future, whatever anyone says...
I mentioned "TRON" earlier in this thread. It was the first (as far as I know) movie that used computer graphics on the same frame as live action. (Star Trek II the wrath of khan had a completely computer generated sequence) Everyone laughed at how bad TRON was, but here we are 25 years later and every movie has computer graphics in frame...well the technology in final fantasy is the next step.
i thought The Wild Bunch was great BTW. Does anyone remember the Monty Python skit called "Sam Peckinpah's Salad Days"?

Actually I quite like Starship Troopers, but I wouldn't say it was the best sci-fi movie ever...
@Aegis... Interview With A Vampire?!? *splutter*
Some of my faves, in no particular order... American History X, LA Confidential, Usual Suspects, La Vita E Bella, Stand By Me, The Power of One, The Thomas Crown Affair (1999 remake), Terminator, Night of the Hunter, The Third Man, Dead Poets Society...
Who, me?!?
Georgi forgot to mention that she loves Mel Brook's movies, especially History of The World I think that's her favourite one

Final Fantasy... well, what's the point in spending so much money creating great FX, if you're not going to put money into getting a decent script as well? The FX may be good, but they don't make a good movie. It's not the worst movie around at the moment though... ummm, Jurassic Park 3, anyone?
Tron ROFL... sadly unavailable, our filmsoc tried to get it for our summer film festival this year
@Veh and you called Aegis a trekkie?

Haven't seen Final Fantasy yet, or Jurassic Park... but from what I've seen it just looks like more of the same panning and zooming on on the faceless expressions of Sam Neil before another cast member gets eaten. Seen it, done it, ate the t-shirt to prove it
Hey, I'm no trekkie, I just love saying KHAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
