Like most of you I, of course, LOVE cinema! Movies all around! :P I guess the reason I love films so much is because they represant our desires... even the ones we shouldn't have! Cinema is a world beside the one we're in... it is a world of fantasy, of the amazing, a world of dreams and the truth is no one can live without it once they find it!
I'm an Archaeology student in Portugal...and I want to know more people that love movies like me! ;) and make quizzes!! About Johnny Depp... well he is(as is obvious) my favorite actor! About him I can't say much... I have no words to describe him! About Tim Burton... he is the greatest director of all times! His vision of all the stories he works with is extraordinary and wonderful! Oh...and lately I've been quite obcessed with the Twilight Saga! ;P "And so the lion fell in love with the lamb..." "What a stupid lamb." "What a sick, masochistic lion."    And more quotes(;P): "From the first moment I met you, your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last man in the world I could ever be prevailed upon to marry." 
"What's in the attic?"    
"I want a wife to share my bed every night. All day if we wish. If I can't have that, I'd rather die. We're not the platonic sort, Jane."    
"She saves me from an inferno and she's glad she happened to be awake." 
"For God's sake, Walter, will you stop punishing me? Do you absolutely despise me?" "No. I despise myself." "Why?" "For allowing myself to love you once." 
"From the moment we enter this live we are in the flow of it. We measure it and We mock it, but we cannot defy it. We cannot even speed it up or slow it down. Or can we? Have we not each experienced the sensation that a beautiful moment seemed to pass to quickly, and wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day, and wished that we could speed things up a bit?" 
"I was meant to return... I just... I kept thinking I'll find around the next corner..." "What?" "A real mystery. I saw remarkable things but the only mystery I never solved was... why my heart couldn't let go of you." 
"A philosopher once asked, "Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human?" Pointless, really...”Do the stars gaze back?" Now *that's* a question." 
"I think you're in my bath." "Close your eyes!" "Honestly I'm not looking. Here, I'll turn away." "Ok, you can open them now." "Did you really mean what you said in the caravan?" "What I...? But... You were a mouse! You were a mouse... you wanted cheese! You didn't... I asked you to give me a sign!" "And risk you being too embarrassed to keep saying to me lovely things? You want to know what the Captain really whispered to me that day? He told me that my true love...was right in front of my eyes. And he was right." 
"All these years, all these memories, there was you. You pull me through time." "Through that last dark cloud is a dying star. And soon enough, Xibalbia will die. And when it explodes, it will be reborn. You will bloom... and I will live." 
"Maggie never told me you were... such a manipulator. She told me you were no good in bed, but she never told me you were such a manipulator." "She told you I was no good in bed?" "Oh, yes." "She was joking. I'm wonderful in bed." "I must tell her." 
"You got to me? You did this to me? You cut my hair? You tortured me? You tortured me! Why?" "You said you wanted to live without fear. I wish there'd been an easier way, but there wasn't." 
"Change moves in spirals, not circles. For example, the sun goes up and then it goes down. But everytime that happens, what do you get? You get a new day. You get a new one. When you breathe, you inhale and you exhale, but every single time that you do that you're a little bit different then the one before. We're always changing. And its important to know that there are some changes you can't control and that there are others you can." 
"You went half way around the world... you spent a fortune... you did terrible things... really terrible things Robert, and all for nothing." "For nothing?" "Yeah." "You never understood, why we did this. The audience knows the truth: the world is simple. It's miserable, solid all the way through. But if you could fool them, even for a second, then you can make them wonder, and then you... then you got to see something really special... you really don't know?... it was... it was the look on their faces..." 
"Nurse, as I love you and you love me, you will bind my breast and buy me a boy's wig." 
"Magnificent. The boy is gone. In the last 30 seconds... you became a grown-up." "It's about our summer together, isn't it?" "It is." "About all of us." "That's right. You like it?" "It's magical. Thank you." "No, thank you. Thank you, Peter." 
"And on a dark cold night, under full moonlight, he flies into the fog like a vulture in the sky! And they call him, Sandy... Clawssss...!" 
"The characters are all... Thanks."

Vicky Cristina Barcelona
by KevinQuite simply one of the best Woody Allen films I have ever set my eyes on! Thats saying alot,the guy is a movie legend. I would rank this up there with Annie Hall,which is often regarded as his best film.
First off I love how the movie opens up. The scene in the resurtant when Javier Bardem's character suggests that Vicky( Rebecca Hall) and Christina( Scarlett Johanson) should fly to Spain with him and perhaps going site seeing and afterwords "make love" I love how he was so causal about the whole situation and how appualed Vicky was by the suggestion. At the same time Christa embrasses the opportunity. That scene says so much about all three characters and sets up the story perfectly. You can defentitly tell that Allen has complete control over this film.
From there on you see the relationship unfold. It has a very seductive feel to it. So incredibly sexy and provocative these scenes are.Spain was the damn near perfect place to set this film,it really does a great job and seduces the viewer,very effective! It plays this very thin line on relationships. Just how long can a relationship last? How do you know if its meant to be? Can love be free or must it be contained. These are some very important and controversial issues that the film adresses.
As for the performances,well one might say that Penelope Cruz steals the movie. And you know what I think she does,however I was surprised that she didnt come into the movie until the fifty minute mark. It was also nice to see Javier Bardem play a more sane character. He has so much range in this film,through his facial expression one could tell that he had seduced these young girls. Scarlett Johansson didnt wow in this film,probualy the weakest link. Rebecca Hall though,she was in her element. With this and Frost Nixon she has had quite the breakout year.
Overall you cant go wrong with this sophisticated love story. For all you guys out there who might not give this film a chance because its a " chick flick",well shame on you.
Juan Antonio: Maria Elena used to say that only unfulfilled love can be romantic.Check out this sophisticated love story,with jaw droping performances.

One Week
by LYNNJust seen this movie.. it was such a good film.. Sad, funny, and touching. Don't know what I would do if I was told I was going to die.. Maybe the same thing he did... It was set in Canada and I have never been there and just by looking at the scenery as he is taking his trip, its quite beautifull.. maybe thats where I would take my roadtrip..

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
by SummerI really enjoyed every minute of this action-packed extravaganza. The action is incredible, the effects are mind boggling and Sam and his parents are often genuinely hilarious. This isn't a film for those looking for a smart plot or realistic story lines - Transformers is a glorified blockbuster that's meant to entertain us and boy does it.
The film isn't perfect, it does drag on a bit too long and there are several things which go unanswered. However, Transformers is a true summer "blow everything up in sight" blockbuster.

Bubble
by KevinSteven Soderbergh is quite the risk taker! He takes non-actors to play in this film. All 3 lead actors have never acted in a film before or since.With none of the actors having any prior experience, one would think that this movie would a disaster! Well I begg to differ,this film was flat out amazing! I mean the actors in the film impofized stories from thier real lifes into this. So yeah this is a character study more than anything. You can tell that the actors seemed nervous at the begging of the film. As the film progresses the dialogue becomes more interesting as well as the facial expressions,etc.
This is a character study and not a fast paced film by any means. If anyone knows my tatse in movies they know I aprriecate that in a film. Here is a movie that takes its time. Although we arent given much time,just over an hour in fact to know these characters. The story takes place in a doll factory in the Midwest. At first I was thinkg: WTF how can this movie work?? Not all of the movie takes place in the doll factory of course. Just the people that work there more or less. Rose,the new employee is joined by Martha and Kyle have to show her the ropes so to speak. I love the scenes between Rose and Martha,you can tell that Rose makes Martha uncombertable.Rose might come off as sweet as first,but it doesnt take long for anyone to notice that she is one demanding young woman. She takes advantage of the character Martha in the worst way.I assure in some scenes it looks like they could have gone into a cat fight.
The more this movie gets going the more intresting it becomes. The twist at the end makes the movie. Great character study from Soderbergh,he does a great job of making it all feel real.Which I of course loved. Loved every moment of this film, for its characters,its bold apporach,its twist and its demise of its characters! See this film!Hey, check out Soderbergh's gutsy film! One of the most surprising films I have witnessed!
