It was hard to get into as it was a bit silly and did not flow very well. But, I oved it.

I thought all of the scenes with Jude Law were hysterical. His character was such a delightful dick. "Kafka?! He's planting garbage for us." And the scene with Talia Shire was a riot, too.

If you liked it, you should really get the two-disc DVD. The deleted scenes are great, especially the one where Hoffman admits to Tomlin that his guide is Caterine. They cut out an entire part of their backstory, the three of them had originally been in a threesome relationship. :laugh:

The Deleted and behind the scenes scenes, I enjoyed as much as the movie. But I'm just kinda like that. And you know what? I sensed some weird threesome thing in the script. When I was watching that movie, I had a LARGE sense that some important things had been deleted... :nod: That's why I think of it more as a lark - I didn't think it was exceptionally deep (more like, medium deep) but it could've been a bit deeper....I, of course, took more deep things away from it...but I don't think it was as explicit as it could've been, in that way - I tend to think of it more as a light comedy... :shrug:

I take it as a light comedy. It's nothing too deep or hard to comprehend, it's essentially a farce dressed up as something only intellectuals would like when it's truly anything but. I'm convinced that David O. Russell toyed with it to drive a lot of the viewers nuts. But I? Adore it. I wasn't sure when I saw it in the theater, but it's firmly planted in my top ten list now. ;) It opened my eyes as to how fabulous Jude Law is and reinvigorated my love for Lily Tomlin.

I love The Killers. STM is okay...not my favorite on the album though. I love All These Things That I've Done and Change Your Mind. The whole album's pretty awesome though.

You're not the only one. :D And I love the album, probably because it reminds me of something The Cure would do, but it's still good.

I like the song, It is a bit overplayed but it is a cool song and their debut album is really good..for a first album lol. I would check it out, because Somebody told me is only mediocre on that album

Well, Maybe the cure's Seventeen Seconds era mixed with head on the Door...its not all mopey Disintergration nor Wish, but I ehard in an interview that brandon Flowers wants to expand his musical views and make albums like the cure and joy division, I beleive The Killers will be here for a while

The only song I've heard from The Killers is Mr. Brightside. I think Brandon is adorable, but other then that you guys can keep 'em.

On a side note, my friend won tickets to see them here in Vegas, and she's dragging me with her. It's supposed to be a big deal, because they're from Vegas and it will be their little 'homecoming', but I could care less. :nod:

true, that. Although i have been nearly dry this month. We can't forget the balming effects of liquor making people smile a lot more, and making them much more friendly, either - that makes you appear more attractive! Unless you're one of those surly, argumentative drunks... :mad:
