What's your favorite movie?

xMike024 — Thu, 07 Jul 2005 16:35:45 GMT

I would have to say by far Fight Club is my favorite movie.

I've seen it many times and I learn more stuff each time. It really made me think about some things in life.

Free Games!

Pursuit Of Happyness

clarenz — Thu, 25 Jan 2007 01:37:38 GMT

The movie is a true story of a man named Christopher Gardner who
overcame insurmountable odds in life and became a very successful broker in Wall Street. It is an inspirational movie without failing to neglect the soft spot of the poor in the man. Gardner shows his goodwill and determination by helping the needed people of South Africa. According to his Biography. I quote:

"Which is why, on this October day, Gardner keeps working those phones.
It's why he's already begun writing his next book. It's why he's in talks with several networks about doing a primetime show, and why, earlier this year, he sold a minority stake in Gardner Rich to a major hedge fund. But most of all, it's why he's about to close a second round of financing -- reportedly to launch a private-equity fund focused solely on investments in South Africa."

College Football Championship Conspiracy

technosaur — Sun, 23 Oct 2005 17:02:47 GMT

Here we go again with the media promoting who it wants in the championship game (based on marketing) instead of the two best teams.

Two years ago based on the agreed upon formula for selecting the two best teams and awarding the game on a rotating basis to the major bowls, Oklahoma and LSU played for the national title in the Sugar Bowl and LSU won and was declared the national champs.
But Media Central based in LA (Los Angeles, not the LA abbreviation for Lousyanna) decided it wanted its own USC to be the champs, ignored the formula and declared USC co-champs with LSU. My opinion, USC did NOT deserve a co-championship because that was not the rules and USC didn't beat anybody. It played a patsy West Coast schedule and then beat a poor "Big Ten" champion in the Rose Bowl.
And if you listen to the hype now, the media is talking about a 3rd consecutive national championship for USC (no mention of the disputed 1st co-championship).

Ok, I admit that USC is looking good this year. They still pay a wimp schedule of offensive games that run up NBA style scores. No defense.. Only team they have played with a genuine defense was Notre Dame, and USC barely got by there.
With 6 undefeated teams still in the running - USC plus Texas, Alabama, Georgia, UCLA and Virgina Tech - the media has already decided it wants a USC/Texas game. Teams from 2 different, big tv markets and both teams ALL offense.

If Alabama and Georgia both remain unbeaten, they will meet in a SouthEast Conference title shootout, so only one survives. UCLA and USC will also meet, eliminating one of them from the UNbeaten (I hope UCLA creams USC).
And what about Virginia Tech, which is scoring points AND playing defense (a side of the game ignored in the NBA and in West Coast college football)? If USC had problems with the Irish defense, the Hokies would show them defense as it is still played in the South.

Won't happen. It will be a USC/Texas track meet with the team making the most slam dunks and 3-point shots being declared the national champion.

Thanks for letting an old middle linebacker get that rant off this chest here in the Off Topic forum.

What's the name of that movie??

Skywatcher — Sat, 15 Oct 2005 20:01:37 GMT

I am looking for the movie that I do believe was either British made or filmed in Ireland. Wow, if only I could find this one....:D

I remember the plot of the movie involved aliens using human blood for their use. The aliens would "farm" humans and change their blood. Individuals would suffer from sweating and fevers, and doctors could not discover the cause of the illness. Actually, the aliens used drinking water to infect individuals and then take the humans away, only to return them again to earth. The small town was also closed off as well. Also, I remember a man, who was infected, jumped into the local drinking water reservoir--- and the alien virus was spread throughout. One of the humans (female doctor or military person) has flashbacks of having tubes placed into her body sucking out her blood for the aliens.

Unless I am just "dreaming" I think this movie does exist. Help!
