Watched Almost Famous ...

[Ramsnake]

... a couple of days back, someone help me, i cant get the ringing of elton john's tiny dancer out of my head dammit! wow what a beautiful movie. didnt expect much from the movie because by the time i watched it, quite a few of my friends praised the movie to annoying heights, i thought i would never enjoy the movie because my expectations would be very high and boy was i delighted. tis' been a real long time since i watched a movie which makes you feel good and warm in the heart in the end. maybe was sappy here and there but overall an excellent movie. if you havent watched it, go and watch it now.

"rolling stone is the enemy." lol. it was an interesting movie. not my type of movie though.

 

[pyonir]

i was pleasantly surprised. i enjoyed it.

 

[Balt]

IMO, it's one of the most overrated movies I've ever seen. I almost couldn't bear to watch the entire movie, to be honest.

If you like it, though, good for you.

I liked it. Plus, Kate Hudson got nude in it, which was a plus in my book.

After mulhulland drive of course. Almost famous was pretty good but nothing great IMO.

What he said.

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

I thought this was a wonderful, refreshing film, and a really pleasant surprise. Definitely one of my favorites of the last few years.

and let my final words be...."I'M ON DRUGS!!!"

 

[Phuz]

Lots of good Zeppelin tunes in that one.

 

[Atrail]

One of my all time favorites!
I watch the move just to hear the music sometimes.
The whole cast did a great job in their performances.

I bought the movie on DVD then I stupidly and foolishly and idiotly bought the Criterion edition on DVD.

Now I'm going to sell both

i was kinda freaked out at that scene....with her small breasts..that scene felt like a underage porno scene...full marks to her excellent acting. prettier and better actor than her mom.

The first DVD I bought was the regular widescreen version and the second was the criterion/collector's edition

Why did I buy 300 DVDs which I never watch?

Why oh why

That was one of my favorite movies of the past 10 years. How Crowe made that crappy Vanilla Sky after such a great movie is beyond me.

Rossman, how much you want for that criterion version?

 

[RossMAN]

Stark - Lemme think about it, I don't think it's even opened. It's probably still shrink wrapped, how much is it selling for it ebay, half, amazon and deepdiscountdvd?

 

[goog]

I bought the "bootleg director's cut" DVD last winter but I still haven't watched it or even listened to that short included CD. I'll have to try the CD now that I remembered it.

It was:

AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT.

First movie to ever get the license to put Led Zepplin songs in a movie.

VERY OVERRATED...


There is no Criterion DVD of Almost Famous, either.

I loved Almost Famous... lots of great classic tunes... I'd like to be a "band-aid" for Britney or Christina or Avril
Oh, and two words why Vanilla Sky sucked... Tom Cruise

 

[Atrail]

As I remeber this movie was hardly rated at all!
It made its name from alot of word of mouth from people who enjoyed it at film festivals and
Roger Ebert were the only raving about this movie. Im just saying it was not over-rated by the media
or anything, there was no big advertising budget and all that. It was highly rated by the people who
saw it and loved it, and thats a good thing!

Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Small Soldiers
The Stoned Age
