I'd like to see Adaptation--i'd go for that one because:
01: Spike Jonze rocks
02: Nicolas Cage is an excellent actor
03: The guy who wrote Being John Malkovich also wrote
adaptation.

Dood i heard ADAPTATION was da BOMB!

and ummmm i dunno if RED's partial to NICK CAGE (*raises
hand*) but i am............tee hee

however, on the other hand Michael Caine does have that
sweet accent going on (wonder if he drops it for the
movie?)

i say Adaptation cos it has CAGE, STREEP, and that unknown
actor who is REALLY good but i can't think of his name (he
is the orchid guy) <----doesn't make sense but it will if
you see the movie!

WE WANT A REVIEW FLEA!!!! whichever you see

ps......get her some flowers......orchids are NICE =0)

imo

Billy Madison is my favourite Sandler..it's him trying to be
obnoxious and dumb and just a little cute..not the Disney
character has is intent on becoming now..Steve Buscemi has a
brilliant little role in it..

Buscemi is in it!!!!

i MUST see it then, i love all his roles he's soooo
underrated. *thinks about FARGO*

AHAHHAHA

that movie was SO GOOD!! the way he moved......so SNAKE
like, eh.....damn he's FINE!!

what i love about orchids are they their fragrance lasts,
and they stay looking so pretty so long (more than any other
flower, other than magnolias) see if you can find the
orchids that smell like chocolate TWO gifts in ONE =0)

Coens are amazing writers, directors......see BLOOD SIMPLE
if you havn't.....it's their brilliant first film =0)

That was a great movie
Have you watched Perdita Durango?
It's like a continuation of Wild at Heart, with the
character that was played by Isabella Rossalini being played
by Rosie Perez, another movie I consider to be mind
blowing.

Yes I love Orchids, thanks for suggesting them:)

Yes we have seen all of the Coen's together both of us love
their films, Big Lebowski is my favourite, flea really like
Barton Fink a lot:)
