"To look young but in turn you have to keep injecting needles into yourself every day else you start decomposing/deconstructing the second you pop out."
Uhm, actually, many Hollywood celebs do this... :-)
Her boobs even have a separate section in the end credits!
And I wondered why Ray Liotta is "thanked" at the end of the end credits!
"And man, those two cops were complete idiots. Always disbelieving, always one step behind. I realize that's the story but come on they were dip shoots. I could barely keep from yelling at the screen when they did some inane thing."
My thoughts exactly! God help us if this is only remotely realistic with British (or any other) police. They home in on him from the beginning and only at the very end they manage to pull their brains out of their asses. And no apoplogy at the end to Aidan. For me, that was the worst insult to injury.
Well said, I agree 100%!
MOST FASCINATING READ!!! Thank you very much for sharing that info.
Next on my eternal dream-wishlist would be the "Relieving Chambers" in the Great Pyramid...
Seriously, you don't come to this site before seeing the films in question! :-)
My. Thoughts. EXACTLY.
I have absolutely no idea why she is such a "star". Not a single memorable hit that is known all over the world.
For real superstars, try MJ, Madonna or Tina Turner with their endless list of classic songs.
My thoughts exactly!!!!!
***SPOILERS***
I could almost see the writers hanging out, raving about an idea one of them just had:
"Hey dude, what about you're on holiday on some bizarre s*** hole island and by accident you kill somebody of the locals; you get arrested and sentenced to death in some Kafkaesque prison but they can clone you and kill a copy of you instead and you're free to go." --- "Whoa dude, we gotta make a movie, c'mon!"
....but what arey the going to do with that idea once the bloody execution is over and you are still alive and back in your resort?
That's exactly where they ran out of any ideas whatsoever. How is the story supposed to end? In the movie, after it has turned out he has been played by his resort acquaintances the whole time somehow, he decides not to leave the island after all but to stay in the resort, lying alone on the beach in the rain - THE END.
Like dude, WTF?
Up to the execution, Cronenberg manages to create a really tense and immensely unsettling atmosphere of being far away from your safe home country in a sinister, oppressive, almost hostile country on an island in a luxury resort somewhere on this planet, protected by barbed wire, not allowed to leave the premises.
I love vacation horror movies, where the main characters are in some corners of the globe where totally different and often archaic laws apply, where you don't speak or read the language and you suddenly get caught in a nightmarish police and justice system after something (by accident or negligence) happens.
This should be a 30-minute short film that ends with the main character coming back to the hotel room, greeted by his wife but just somehow staring blankly at her. You don't know if this is still him or maybe in fact the copy, leaving open the question if something has indeed changed in his mind or consciousness after having been cloned. That would be my version of this brilliant premise!
I think he told him he now had two choices:
A) He commits suicide by hanging himself in the pantry in the next five minutes.
B) If not, he will be skinned alive, his body then rubbed with chili powder and finally roasted alive over low flame, thus being put to a death the devil himself would be afraid of.
I guess that's what he told him... :-)
Hm-HM!!! This IS a tasty burger!
Is what right...?
You got a point there... :-)
You could say the original SAW made a nod to TCM!
Not how ON earth did he do it but how IN the earth...:
--> SOLUTION: He dug a tunnel from one lesser frequented side entrance of the cemetery to right under the grave and could easily switch the bodies!................................... :-)

..........NOT!!!!! Of course this whole sequence is pure BS and the worst writing possible, insulting the audience's intelligence WAY too much....
Quoting from this article:
"On March 31, additional smartphone footage of the incident was published which appeared to show the incident through an audience member's angle at the Smiths' table. The footage seems to show the reaction of Pinkett Smith during and after the joke made by Rock, and shows Pinkett Smith unamused and rolling her eyes during the joke and then seeming to laugh when Rock comments both "Will Smith just smacked the shit out of me" and "That was a ... greatest night in the history of television.""
It already HAS become the Grassy Knoll! Wow, dude.... wow!
WORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can only agree. Totally boring and pointless BS!
Seriously.
AMEN TO THAT!!!
