QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 15, 2009 -> 10:39 AM) So, doctor people...what's the long-term implications of a stress fracture in one's back? That just crossed my mind. It sounds like something that would stick with him.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 12, 2009 -> 05:12 PM) I haven't seen an actor attached yet for any role, but I believe Dreamworks owns the rights. Carson will be hard to get right. Most of the strong leading men that you'd think of to be, basically, America's first action hero, are not going to look right. Carson is built more or less like Harvey Keitel - on the short side, stocky/beefy, craggy face. Most of your action hero types don't fit that. I was thinking maybe Ed Harris for the older version of Carson, but you need someone who can play him younger, and I don't know who that might be. Viggo Mortensen?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 11, 2009 -> 02:48 PM) After learning about him in the Adams series I started to question how great Washington really was. Bah, the man still led the army in defeating the British. And of course the story of John Adams isn't going to go into great detail on what the man did right, but rather where he differed from Adams and such.

What movie is he in?

Films Thread
I have been watching John Adams the last few days, great miniseries by the way. But while watching it, I repeatedly find myself wondering why they haven't made a miniseries or epic based on George Washington's life. Someone pointed out to me that there was a movie in the 1980's starring Barry Bostwick as Washington, but that doesn't exactly cut the mustard for me. With all of the epic movies and miniseries in the recent past, why haven't they done one about the man who most consider the greatest American ever?

9-11 rememberance thread
I think some of the reasoning is that we cannot treat it as a "holiday" because it would draw so much attention to the acts of the terrorists. Terrorism is a regular occurrence in many places, and we should count ourselves as pretty lucky that it is relatively infrequent here. It's important to remember what happened, and especially the lives lost, but I'm not sure we should dedicate a great deal of news and programming on it. I don't know, I sort of like the way they handle it. Either way, it's hard to believe it happend eight years ago. I remember it so vividly.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 10, 2009 -> 12:29 AM) That's honestly as well as it can be said. In fact, I'd go a step further and say he's been worse in the second half than he was good in the first half. That was actually a quote from Family Guy mocking Tim McCarver. I just edited it a bit, as it seemed to fit.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 07:29 AM) Is this the movie with the clip where Hitler is mad at the Cubs/Yankees/ Red Sox/every major league team in every pro sport? Yes. QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 9, 2009 -> 08:50 AM) What's to explain? Other than a few well-done scenes of pre-violent tension ( everything else was laughably stupid dialogue combined with either pointless violence and/or overly blatant attempts at art. It was all just so ham-fisted and blunt, it could have been written by a 12 year old. Which is why it was so odd that SOME scenes, usually when they had less dialogue and more non-verbal acting, were so well done. Well, the whole world seems to disagree with you, but you're entitled to your opinion...as wrong as it clearly is.
