Milkman delivers Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I just got back from The New World. It was the longest, most boring piece of crap I've seen in a while. There is basically no fight scenes. There's one, to be exact. And it was just a love story. It sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx, I almost got suckered into that. I thought it focused more on the first interaction between the English and Native Americans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The girl seemingly becomes fluent in English in a few months, which is glazed over in about 10 minutes. The movie was not what I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosMediasBlancas Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 I've been waiting to see this.

Thought you would be interested to know that Mr. Haskins received roughly $375,000 for the movie. The players received about $7,500 apiece. When Haskins found out how little the players received, he insisted that his portion be divided evenly amongst all. Everyone then received roughly $37,000, including Mr. Haskins. What a man. how cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best movies of the year. I think anybody interested in American History should see this. It is very accurate and will probably become a video that they show in History Classes when they are talking about Jamestown and the settlement of the colonists and Native Americans instead of Pocahontas (which is just a corny romance has not historical accuracy.) It is also not a chick flick. It has some great battle sequences and the sets are amazing. What is the problem with making a love story. I also recomend another great movie called Junebug. this movie is a great comedy. I laughed a lot and it is very sweet and warm hearted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get how he truly feels you have to read his reviews. He has some of the best reviews out there because he describes what the movie is about so well. I know the majority of the time how i will feel about a movie by just reading what he says ( even if i disagree with him... because there are certain things he does not like that i do).
