I film porno ci insegnano che
i culi sono posti puliti. I film tratti da videogiochi invece ci insegnano che i videogames
fanno davvero male, o almeno lo fanno
al cinema.
Alcuni indizi premonitori che
Ballistic (
Ecks vs. Sever) sarebbe stata una catastrofe:
- c'è Antonio Banderas...
- ...e non ha una chitarra.
- è basato su una serie di videogiochi...
- ...per Game Boy Advance.
- il regista si fa chiamare Kaos ed ha girato un solo altro film...
- ...in Tailandia.
Tutto d'un fiato:
Il Cattivo traffica in armi ed ha rubato una nanotecnologia per accoppare la gente a distanza che inietta in suo figlio che però non è suo figlio e gli viene pure rapito da
Lucy Liu e la moglie del cattivo che però non lo ama ma si vede che le piacciono i soldi si fa aiutare per trovarlo da
Banderas che è
Il Buono ed è pure il padre del bimbo ma però tutti e due si credevano vicendevolmente morti e poi Lucy Liu c'ha le crisi di coscienza o forse le sue cose o forse non era mai stata cattiva non lo so ma comunque alla fine c'è pure lo scontro finale e
badabim badabem tutto si risolve ma non prima di aver sparato diciotto tonnellate di parabellum 7.65 in pieno centro a Vancouver che si vede che lì è normale perché nessuno si lamenta o interviene.
Col senno di poi, se proprio ci si doveva punire con un film di Banderas, era meglio
quello in cui ciuccia le tette alla Jolie (
Original Sin. Che non ho mai visto, ma non credo ci fosse poi
molta più trama di così...)
Soddisfacente e liberatorio come le migliori sedute sul
Trono Del Potere®.

Liu, Lucy
Nome di battesimo: Liu, Lucy Alexis
Data di nascita: 2 December 1968
Altezza: 5' 3" (1.60 m)
Ultimi lavori: Biografia:Born to Chinese immigrants in Queens, New York, Lucy Liu has always tried to balance an interest in her cultural heritage with a desire to move beyond a strictly Asian-American experience. Once relegated to "ethnic" parts, the energetic actress is finally earning her stripes as an across-the-board leading lady.Liu graduated from Stuyvesant High School in 1986 and enrolled in New York University; discouraged by the "dark and sarcastic" atmosphere of NYU, however, she transferred to the University of Michigan after her freshman year. She graduated from UM with a degree in Chinese Language and Culture, managing to squeeze in some additional training in dance, voice, fine arts, and acting. During her senior year, Liu auditioned for a small part in a production of Alice in Wonderland and walked away with the lead; encouraged by the experience, she decided to take the plunge into professional acting. She moved to Los Angeles and split her time between auditions and food service day jobs, eventually scoring a guest appearance as a waitress on "Beverly Hills, 90210" (1990). That performance led to more walk-on parts in shows like "NYPD Blue" (1993), "ER" (1994), and "The X Files" (1993). In 1996, she was cast as an ambitious college student on Rhea Perlman's ephemeral sitcom "Pearl" (1996).Liu first appeared on the big screen as an ex-girlfriend in Jerry Maguire (1996) (she had previously filmed a scene in the indie Bang (1995), but it was shelved for two years). She then waded through a series of supporting parts in small films before landing her big break on "Ally McBeal" (1997). Liu initially auditioned for the role of Nelle Porter, which went to Portia de Rossi, but writer-producer David E. Kelley was so impressed with her spunk that he promised to write a part for her in an upcoming episode. The part turned out to be that of growling, ill-tempered lawyer Ling Woo, which Liu filled with such aplomb that she was signed on as a regular cast member.The "Ally" win gave Liu's film career a much-needed boost--in 1999, she was cast as a dominatrix in the Mel Gibson action flick Payback (1999), and as a hitchhiker in the ill-received boxing saga Play It to the Bone (1999). The next year brought even larger roles: first as the kidnapped Princess Pei Pei in Jackie Chan's western Shanghai Noon (2000), then as one-third of the comely crime-fighting trio in Charlie's Angels (2000).When she's not hissing at clients or throwing well-coiffed punches, Liu keeps busy with an eclectic mix of off-screen hobbies. She practices the martial art of Kali-Eskrima-Silat (knife-and-stick fighting), skis, rock climbs, rides horses, and plays the accordion. In 1993 she exhibited a collection of multimedia art pieces at the Cast Iron Gallery in SoHo (New York), after which she won a grant to study and create art in China. Her hectic schedule doesn't leave much time for romantic intrigue, but Liu says she prefers to keep that side of her life uncluttered.
Trivia random: Was the first Asian-American female to host "Saturday Night Live" (1975).
Citazione random: "I grew up in Jackson Heights, Queens, with no money. I was taught not to take anything for granted. If you are too busy being a diva or a freak, then you are not enjoying it."
Kaosayananda, Wych

Sei un maledetto geniaccio, altrochè. Ah, io il film con la Jolie "dove gli lecca le tette", l'ho visto. Non gli lecca nemmeno le tette. Deludente oltre modo.
Vado a sentire la gialappa's. ;)
Ehi, ma era stato promesso nei trailer, me lo ricordo bene! Dovresti chiedere indietro i soldi...
Per Serenity farò sapere. Firefly purtroppo non l'ho visto, ed immagino che in Italia... beh, se mi piace il film lo recupero da quei moscioni degli americani.
Comunque sono SDEGNATO: io non ho MAI stroncato NULLA.
Ultimamente ho visto solo cose belizzime... :-)
Ah, imperdibile Behind Enemy Lines domani sera su italia1: TRAAASH! ;-)
...Non ci crederai, ma firefly (che in *tutto* sono 14 episodi, di cui il primo, pilot, a durata doppia), sta girando, ma su canaljimmy (piattaforma sky, quindi).
Solo che hanno fatto un massacro. Per dire: hanno tradotto il cinese[1]. Ovviamente nel film non è stato fatto, per gli standard nostri, è stato adattato relativamente bene.
[1]
Nel mondo di firefly, si immagina che le due super potenze, cina e usa, si fondono, e il cinese, è un pò la lingua "povera", "bassa", che tutti sanno. Quindi, nel film e nel telefilm, imprecano in cinese. Non tanto importante cosa dicono (nei sub, viene scritto genericamente "galactic speaking"), quanto il senso di esotismo. Ecco, hanno doppiato anche quello (a caso, ovviamente).
