Which of theirs is you favourite film and why? (This can be made individually or as a collaboration). My personal favourite is 'City of Lost Children'. Though I am a big fan of all their work - every shot a masterpiece...

Mary Poppins. Broke new ground on animation/live action compositing. Perfect in every way, just like Mary. Beautiful music, wonderful story, hilarious moments.\n\nMy Dad took me to see it at Grommen's Chinese Theater in LA three times to see it.\n\nBest Answer: yoonixa - Wonderful story!! :)

I once read an article by Jonathon Ross about John Holmes, and in it he described a pathetic figure whose celebrity status in the arena of porn deteriorated into a life of drug abuse, betrayal, gang involvement and murder...oh, and his eventual death due to Aids. What a great premise for a film!\n\nI enjoyed Wonderland and was gripped all the way though.It was Holmes' dependence on drugs that meant he was eventually dropped from the porn industry, he could no longer perform or 'get it up'. From there his life spiralled and this is where Wonderland starts.\n\nThe story is not only presented in a very factual way, ( nearly every police statement and event occurred as shown ), but the pace in unrelenting and the acting convincing. Kilmer does a good job on Holmes - a bit like his Jim Morrison, he gets the druggie, spaced out feel just right.\n\nThe re-telling of events through different perspectives is also impressive, if not original and although there is no real tension in the film this is not a criticism. This is not supposed to be a suspense film or a thriller, it is much better than that. It is a true account of lives which interest us and which most of us have difficulty comprehending - apologies to drug dealers, murderers and porn stars.\n\nWhen the actual murders occur they are brutal and dramatic, interspersing real footage of the murder scene into the action. Gory and fascinating, and i'm sure most of you do the pause or slow-mo run after.\n\nI'm a sucker for information being handed out at the end of films and Wonderland doesn't disappoint. We find out about all the main protagonists and of course we all know what happened to John. Full credit to the director, I was waiting for this film to be made since 1988 and am not disappointed!

Best movie in a long time for me.  Ofcourse, I love france, the language and culture, so maybe I'm biased, but I loved it.  And I was pleased to see my favorite Euro pop star, Alizee, have her 01 hit "Moi...Lolita" in the begining of the movie.  The movie is worth it just for the scenery of the French countryside.

I'm glad to see someone else interested in this film!  I've actually heard really good things about it, and i just bought it.  I'm planning on watching it later today based on all the reviews I read, which were very favorable.  On IMDB (which I consider to be a very very good resource for film info), they gave it an average rating of 7.3 out of 10.  \n\nOne of the reviewers made this comment:\n"Without revealing too much of the story, Elijah Wood's character gets kicked out of Harvard for a drug offence he didn't commit. He flies to London to visit his sister and quickly gets caught up in a small group of West Ham United supporting hooligans called the Green Street Elite.\n\nThe film does slightly glamorise the violence, but ends on a moralising note. An engaging storyline, good cinematography and decent cast performances make this a very enjoyable film."\n\nAnyway, I don't know just how violent it is yet, and it's fiction after all, but I'm really looking forward to watching it.  I'll give you an update after I've seen it.  Also, have you seen Football Factory??  Here's a snippet from the summary: "The Football Factory is more than just a study of the English obsession with football violence, its about men looking for armies to join, wars to fight and places to belong."\n\nI figure if I like Green Street Hooligans I might like Football Factory, so I might get that one, too.\n\nHere's a link for Green Street Hooligans:\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385002/\n\nHere's one for Football Factory:\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385705/

Prisoner of Azkaban.... it had a great director ( Alfonso Cuaron)... no wonder JK Rowling wanted him to direct the rest of the movies....

Hi,\n\nI don't know if you'll agree on that : but I think in my opinion, the best short films are : the ones from Pixar !!! I think you could learn a lot on the senarios, the designs etc... You can see them on their website or you can buy them through "itunes".\nFor documentaries, I don't really know...sorry.

I saw this film toward the end of the Cannes Film Festival; it edged out every other I'd seen, 30 of them, because of its wonderful story; history, politics and fantasy woven into a fabric spun by a superlative creative team headed by Guillermo del Toro. In comparison to "...Labyrinth", del Toro's other films only hinted at the depth and breadth of his talent. In this film, much as I pride myself on guessing the outcome of most stories, you cannot guess what's happening next. The film is long and the suspense is sustained throughout. The music is some of the best I've heard in years, so well suited to the action that you almost don't notice its specific effect because of how well it is intertwined with the visual, emotional and intellectual experience.\n\nIn my opinion, del Toro's "...Labyrinth" deserved to win at Cannes over the Ken Loach film, "The Wind That Shakes the Barley". Actually, everyone I knew at the Festival who had seen both agreed with me. It's hard to imagine that any film could beat it in a context other than Cannes where they have marked preferences (bordering on obsession) for certain directors.\n\nLet's hope that the late December opening will favor an Oscar nomination which it should win hands down, unless some other outstanding films appear on the horizon. That doesn't seem likely because at Cannes the somewhat disappointing array of films was attributed to the fact that not much great product is being released this year. I might add that I had already seen Volver prior to Pan, and I still maintain that Pan is the better film. Since then, I love The Departed, but that's in another category which does not threaten Pan's access to Oscar.

Unfortunately, I've seen only "Todo sobre mi madre" ("All about my mother" in English, right?). This is one of my favourite movies, all cry every time when I watched it. I am sure that the rest of his movies are also extraordinary.

Alright... at the risk of being harrassed - I am a guy who just saw "A Walk In The clouds" this week. And I loved it.\n  It is one of the best written/acted/casted/directed movies I have ever seen. \n  it had the "ahhhhhhh..." factor that grabbed your heart.\n And the photography was amazing in that the "dream like" quality of the winery/orchard as opposed to the harsher more realistic photography of New York and the town in California just added to the whole effect.\n   The actor who played Victoria's father should have won a major award, and Anthony Quinn was CLASSIC as the grandfather. Even Keanau Reeves, who I have always regarded as more of a "face" than an actor, did a marvelous job.\n  Two thumbs WAAAAAy up!

Kawada and Nanahara\nHave you seen 2?  if not check out the new director's cut"Revenge", rather than the theatrical version"Requiem"

Yes, they're my favourite group. Their new album has been one of my favourites of the year. I love the tracks Bones, For Reasons Unknown and Read My Mind.  My favourite song of all is still off their first album - All These Things I've Done - gets me every time I hear that track.  I feel like it was written just for me.   I'm still gutted than I missed out on getting tickets to see them tour.  I hope they do some more dates.

I had a friend who missed her plane that day American Flight 11, she still won't fly. After it happened me and my college buddies drove all night to get to ground Zero and help move rubble hoping to find survivors.\n\nI've healed pretty well since then i saw the film I though it was an excellent film and feel that all those who feel up to it should go see it.
