1993 Part One

Here's some more films. This time it's 1993. There were so many films out I'll have to break it up into parts. Once 1993 is done, I'll move on to another year.








Woa nelly- Uh Not's so much

This stopped me in my tracks


Thanks Ain't It Cool News

The movie is called Knowing. I hope it is as good as it looks. I can even deal with Nicolas Cage if it is.


UPDATE

WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT!!!
The best parts of the movie where the disasters.They were quite chilling. I was disturbed by them
Nicolas Cage was so convincing as a single dad. Oh did I mention he was an astrophysicist. What astrophysicist doesn't have a laptop and scanner? He makes his discovery on a dry erase board. He gets the dates but doesn't recognize the rest of the numbers being coordinates. A computer would have discovered the code imediately.
He was more childish than his kid. I don't get his apeal.
SPOILER ALERT
The movie ends with the world being destroyed an his kid (who is deaf BTW) being taken by angel like aliens who pick up two of each animal like Noah's Arc along with "those who hear the call". Of course pop can't go (which makes no sense because he figured out the whole code) and makes the kid board the "ship"

He then goes to Boston, which is in total chaos but he seems to drive right through with no problems. Even if there was no traffic on the road during the last day nobody jumps on his truck or tries to pull him out. He makes amends with his dad who is a Pentecostal preacher. and the world gets destroyed. The Christians will love this.

The last scene is the kid and his little girl (who is the grand daughter of the girl who channeled the code 50 years ago) friend running through a extra terrestrial field on another planet. They are running to this giant golden tree. Yeah ,Yeah I get it, Adam and Eve.

Another thing that's nagging me is why pick the kid, he's been deaf since birth. Sure he has a hearing aid and dad said he's not deaf he just gets words jumbled around, but I would still think they would want a kid who is as genetically perfect as possible.

If I walk away from a movie with these kind of questions, the movie must suck.

Such A Groovy Chick?

There is a bigger Canadian pop star from the early 90s that had greater success than Mitsou.
I bring you
Tammy



Cette groovy chick



When I started working in clubs, I remember seeing this artist. She's a French Canadian minx.
She was the Canadian Britney Spears of the 90s. I really don't know much about her. But here's a couple of videos.


She took what Madonna was doing at the time and took to a whole other level. There was actual male frontal nudity in the Dis Moi Dis Moi

It's time to play BOLLYWOOD SQUARES (the guys) pt 2

With the recent wins of Slumdog Millionaire you can be sure there will be an influx of Indian culture into the entertainment media. Look for these faces to start appearing. I have no doubt Bollywood with start influencing Hollywood.(It's already started. Will Smith offered the role Charlize Theron played in Hancock to Aishwarya Rai, but she turned it down)
They've already outsourced a lot of the CGI work overseas.

Back in 2 and 2

Whilst looking for material for Bollywood Squares, I came across this trailer. If anyone is going to touch this material it seems only Bollywood would.

It's about three friends, one just becomes a US citizen then 9/11. Being Indian you can only guess what happens

Here's New York



Not quite sure how it will be. Could be interesting

Don't be too surprised if these ladies start showing up in the next year or two. Not that they need Hollywood because they work in the largest motion picture industry in the world and have an audience in the hundreds of millions.
