    How is that ironic? Do you know what ironic means?

    "Coincidental" is the word you are looking for

    "In the Name of the Father"
    Great Movie. I give it a 8/10. Its about the British-Irish political conflicts in the 1970s. Anyone seen it? Check it out if you haven't.

    Good action movie, but the storyline was stupid.

    DREAM, I suggest you check this one out, your girl Alicia Keys is Smokin' Hot in it.</div>

    Can't see the picture, but I assume it's Smokin Aces? Yeah, Alicia Keys is HOT in that movie.

    okay...coincidental....lol..i can't even remember this post.....I just thought it was "ironic" because the last movie that both of us had seen had featured the same actor, but they were 2 different films (one being fairly new and the other being pretty old from what I remember).....that rarely happens so I thought it was sort of "ironic"

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">3 a (1) : incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result</div>

    the poster seeing a film with the same actor in it (from 2 different movies from different time periods) was an "icongruity of the expected result" (expected result = being the same movie).a coincidence would've been us seeing the same movie...since you like being difficult.....

    I'm not that big of a fan of Jackman as I am of Bale. I want to see that movie, it comes out on DVD next Tuesday. How's the acting?

    Try watching the documentary I recommended before. Made by two French guys, they have footage from inside the tower, when the first tower was hit (the only footage out there of this happening) and the aftermath. They even get you sucked into the film because you get to meet the firemen that worked during the events. The name is simply titled as 9|11.

    http://www.amazon.com/11-Filmmakers-Commem...s/dp/B00006B1HI

    Watch it, experience it. Don't get an idea from a film made simply for profit.

    Denzel's a great actor, but I think his acting wasn't as good in that movie compared to Man on Fire.

    Just saw the Hannibal flick....it was decent, 7/10.

    Right now I'm watching:

    I saw a 50 minute movie from 1981 a few days ago, called "The Wave". It's about an American high school class which is learning about the Nazi's and the Holocaust. One of the students asked a question about how the other German's who weren't Nazis didn't stop what was happening and then said that they didn't know it even happened. The teacher couldn't answer the question, so he did some research and decided to try an expirement. So, the following class he told them that strengh is achieved by discipline and started to discipline the class. The next class he said strength is achieved by community. The next class, he said strengh is achieved through action. He said that the class would now be part of a group that he called "The Wave". He made a signal for the group and a hand gesture for it (like the Nazi's had, but different). Eventually, the students started recruiting other student's to join the group, and got absorbed into it, hitting anyone who was against it. Anyone who didn't join the group was afraid to get hurt if he tried to stop it. The teacher then told the students in his class to bring all loyal members of "The Wave" into the school auditorium at 5 PM. He said that "The Wave" was really a nationwide youth movement and that the real leader of "The Wave" would speak. All the members went to the auditorium and watched TV screens which were supposed to show the leader speaking, but the screens remained blank. Suddenly, the teacher projected onto a huge screen a clip of Hitler speaking to his own youth movement, and said, "there's your leader". The students were shocked how similiar they really were to the Nazi's and how they had forgoten their personal lives and got absored into the group. It just showed them that anyone could get absorbed into a movement like that and become violent to other people who were against it.

    It was a strong movie, highly reccommended if you can somehow get your hands on it. 9/10

    I watched that last year in my Cal History class. I remember our class made a Wave thing just to get the teacher pissed off and nervous and to make fun of the blatant corniness of the movie. It wasn't a bad movie but its so dated no one could help but laugh at pretty much everything in the movie.

    Yeah, we watched it in History class too, and same thing here, everyone was laughing at everything throughout the whole movie: carts, hairdoos, basically the whole plot too.
