<p>Add in the fact Reacher is meant to be 6'5" and it's cause for complete suspension of disbelief.</p>

<p>Only if you read the books and then decide that the movie has to be an exact copy. Do you complain that Morgan Freeman isn't a ginga Irishman in Shawshank Redemption?</p> -

<p>Wait!!! Diane Kruger is nude in Troy - off to the video store I go!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I prefer to think she married the dude from Fringe! At least she didn't marry Dawson, that would be something to moan about!</p>

<p>you'll need the Directors Cut (which of course i have) but yea, it's Diane's titties, all out there. great stuff. </p> -

And in fact, I'm glad you've pointed that out because fuck rangas. And Irishmen. The Reacher books were all copies of each other anyway

<p>no, she fucking didn't. Even in the directors cut of Troy, when everyone else is nude (Diane Kruger i fucking love you, why the fuck did you marry Pacey?) she still managed to keep herself covered. Stop taking yourself seriously (i thought she was fucking hot in Damages, but i bet if you met her, you would notice she is tiny with a massive head). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought First Class was very meh. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I watched Jack Reacher last night. What a pile of shit. Terrible plot, a fucking shit main character (seriously, an invincible ex-military badass who is also a genius? give me a break) that Cruise completely failed to pull off (listening to him trying to sound tough was hilarious). Zero chemistry between the main characters, and even Robert Duvall reprising his role of Harry Hogge (i guess NASCAR and gun ranges would share a lot of clientele) made no fucking sense. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]seriously, why would a group of people decide to help a dude being chased by an entire city's police force? that made no fucking sense at all![/spoiler]</p>

<p>Very disappointing from Rose there, I happened to catch the Wrestler the other night, not only is it a good movie Marrisa Tomei finally did what I've been wanting her to do since My Cousin Vinny. I'm surprised she hasn't done more movies to be honest, I think she's a pretty decent actress .</p> -

<p>Hasn't she been naked before The Wrestler? I think she was in Before the Devil Knows Your Dead - the HUGE drawback being that Phillip Seymour Hoffman was naked with her.</p> -

<p>I'd prefer not to have the trauma of him ruining the scene. If only more hit actresses would take career advice from Kate Winslet.</p>
</div>
</blockquote>
<p>I'm pretty sure that whereas most actresses have a "no nudity" clause in their contract Winslet has a "must have nudity" clause in hers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Back to Tomei, she has had a weird career, no big breakout roles but a few where she's been lauded critically. I think she was Oscar nominated for The Wrestler and In The Bedroom. I was reading her IMDB page and she was in A Different World (the Cosby spinoff) and I remember there being a really hot white chick on it when all the rest of the characters were black.</p> -
<p>How did you forget that she was in the directors cut of The Toxic avenger? <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090190/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm'>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090190/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>God bless Kate Winslet, Eva Mendes you could take a leaf out of her book especially after your inexplicit but very funny sex tape. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/0a4d42beff/eva-mendes-sex-tape'>http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/0a4d42beff/eva-mendes-sex-tape</a></p> -
<p>Eve Mendes has got her gear out heaps. I am sure she is nude in "Training Day" at least. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Eve Mendes is fucking hot. </p> -

I thought it was only training day? Pleased to wrong but I don't think she's approaching Windlet levels of nudity. -

Saw the butler the other night, it two women I loathe- Oprah and Jane Fonda , it didn't do much for me to be honest. Wait till it's a $3.50 8 day hire.</p></blockquote>
Bear in mind that porn is pretty hard to get hold of in Qld away from the internet so I'll say this, I would rather drive to ACT and buy gay porn than spend a whopping $3.50 and THEN watch another Oprah slave/equal rights/morality piece...<br><br>
Saw Pacific Rim. No story really but fantastic special FX. Great pop corn movie but as I said absolutely no story worth mentioning. A complete lack of character development seems not to have bothered Del Toro either as by the end there is some pretty buddy, buddy schmaltzy shit that you get the feeling we are supposed to get sentimental about but just don't give a shit about the characters enough.<br><br>
6/10 - not a single good to talk about...<br><br>
Gran Torino <br><br>
Watched this movie maybe 5 times since it was released. Still massive.<br><br><br>
Wolverine.<br><br>
So much better than the first spinoff. That isn't hard though. I liked this movie regardless. I hope they make one last one and go all out with a better director. John Favreau would be good.<br><br>
7/10<br><br>
The Worlds End<br><br>
Funny but not Hot Fuzz, Shawn of the Dead funny. Would have been better if they just done a movie about a pub crawl.<br><br>
7/10<br><br>
After Earth - daughters choice<br><br>
Huge stinking pile of pseudo Scientology shit. M Night may not be one of Toms Cruises flock but Will Smith certainly is and this reeks of L.Ron Hubbard's poor excuse for science fiction.<br><br>

<p>I think she's done one other but nowhere near Winslet levels ... I think it was We Own the Night.</p>

<p>Why all the hating on Oprah boys?</p> -
<p>Saw Wolverine and Man of Steel on Sky Box Office recently.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wolverine I wasn't so keen on for some reason. Maybe it was the ho-hum setting of Japan, complete with immortality-needy-industrialist plot device, plus obligatory yakuza, swords, shinto-schminto and tall, westernised babes. It was all so formulaic, right down to the evil lair and shogun-bot at the end.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Man of Steel I was ready to hate, but it was surprisingly good. Cavill looks the part and the the whole back story is well done. I even liked the time-shifting nature of the plot. The only that shitted me up was the Antarctica scenes where they find the lost scout ship. Lois Lane goes out into the freezing arctic night and sees with her naked eye only what her camera can see in extreme closeup and then wanders off up a frozen mountain into guaranteed death to follow a lone dude down a tunnel? Puhleeease!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyway, loved the fight scenes and the alien tech and am reasonably keen to see what they do next.</p> -

<p>I don't understand how any heterosexual male can not loathe the vile self absorbed cow. Btw she's a behemoth again so I guess she'll be flogging another diet plan soon.</p>

<p>I believe I am a heterosexual male and don't loathe Oprah and I'm definitely not one to comment on weight issues.</p>

<p>Eva Mendes by a country mile.</p>
