Don Giovanni, the 1979 production of the Mozart opera of the same name. I'm no opera expert, but I certainly liked it for the most part.

It's on Sky Movies here in the UK right now as I type this! ![]() ..............Neytiri is in tears following destruction of Utraya Mokri and Tsu'tey and party are spoiling for a fight. Avatar seems to be on virtually every other week where it will play several times during each day. Must still be very popular for it to have such a continuous showing even after two years.

That's what I keep hearing. There's a production of it being put on in May in Los Angeles, not too far from my home. If I wasn't already scheduled to be a million miles away at the time ( ) I would absolutely go see it. The movie will be as close I get for now.

I thought it was much better than I was led to believe it would be.

Green Lantern. As a long time fan of the Green Lantern character (although I have recently sworn off comic books) I was surprised Ryan Reynolds was able to pull off the character of Hal Jordan well. He didn't strike me as a particularly good casting decision when I heard about it, but he did a good job portraying the character IMO.
A couple of things though 1. Did this movie really need to cost $300 million. With a movie like Avatar, the answer is an unequivocal yes. With this? I don't think so. 2. Having a villain that turned out to be just a giant..... mass did not work out for the Fantastic Four and I don't think it worked particularly well here. Giant purple man, giant yellow bug, still better than CGI blobs. And X-Men: First class. Which I think did something well that Star Wars Episode 2 and 3 did not. I think they did a good job establishing that Professor X and Magneto were once friends. Ideologically different friends. The Star Wars prequels often MENTIONED that they were friends, but never really established that on screen..... ever. |

I think the Green Lantern villain pretty much crippled the movie. Fun fact: the classroom the evil guy is teaching in when he flips out (sorry for the vagueness, it's been a while) is my old bio classroom

IMO, no or only if you have it on while doing other things so you don't feel like you've wasted two hours of your life (in the event you don't like it)
