What MOVIE(s) have you been....seeing? watching?
Anyway, Grand Budapest is not as good as Moonrise (which I agree with Barney is very close to Rushmore), but it is a good Wes Anderson movie, and Ralph Fiennes is just great in it.

Anyway so here I am in a theatre by myself waiting to see a nice relaxing movie to chill a bit. It's called LIFE. I assume it's a rom com or something... I'll write about it tomorrow

I feel like there is a wasted opportunity with the ending...
Look, i don't know if all of you saw that ending coming a mile away. If you didn't, I'm very jealous cuz I thought the more they showed the two Soyuze capsules tumbling and getting all mixed up, the more obvious it was.
Anyway, here's what I think is a kick butt ending. Keep all the cloak-and-dagger stuff the same, make it obvious that capsules get mixed up so people start to assume it'll probably be Jake G in the capsule that lands. But then the capsule opens from the inside and out pops the girl! They tricked us! She looks up at the sky and lets the warm sun hit her face and she starts crying happy tears of laughter that she survived this whole ordeal. Then she opens her eyes and sees something coming towards her from the heavens. She squints as the camera cuts to a long shot and it's a tactical missile heading right towards her. It slams into the capsule and a nuclear explosion goes off. Far away shot of the mushroom cloud.

So had she just kicked herself into deep space, that would have been the end of it. But that also would have made for no movie. If you want to explain it away with her perhaps not thinking very logically at the time, sure.

i'm glad you like my ended idea I thought it would have been perfect. With the ending the way it was, I stay past the credits to see if there was more, and there wasn't.

Which version of The Crazies? The 2010 version is a good movie, but, it loses Romero's social commentary about how the zombie outbreak happens which is told in the 1973 version. In the 1973 version, Romero presents a cautionary tale of what could happen if Governments continue to experiment with Biological Warfare. In the 1973 version,
