If you play online, Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 are the best zombie experience you can have.

1. Uma Thurman - The Bride (Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2) 2. Scarlett Johansson - Charlotte (Lost in Translation) 3. Helena Bonham Carter - Marla Singer (Fight Club) 4. Natalie Portman - Mathilda (Leon The Professional) That's all I can think of right now, I have to head back to work. Helena Bonham Carter was perfect in the role of Marla Singer. I've never seen Leon The Professional, but alot of people have told me I like it. I saw Bill Murray on your actor's list. Is Lost In Translation your favorite film? if so, excellent choice. I felt Murray was cheated out of an Oscar for this personally. Not my favorite film, but I do enjoy it quite a lot.

I can see it being beneficial, but there's something about having the physical copy that will never grow old. Blu-ray cases are so sleek and appealing. Also I couldn't imagine buying something like the Alien Anthology and not having that awesome packaging.

Nice list. I debated whether or not on putting Kevin Spacey on my list, and I actually would have chose the same role for him. He was fantastic in American Beauty. One of those roles that no other actor would have fit the character better.
Also, if you want to start one up for actresses feel free! That would be a good topic as well.

Led Zeppelin - Fool In The Rain
Probably my favorite Zeppelin song. Blasphemy, I know right?

More than anything, this is probably an attempt to measure true interest in a fourth film...Having said that, this is great news!! I've seen it in theaters, but man..imagine the part where Newman gets spit on by the dilophosaurus - that and the goat scene will be epic in 3D That's kind of what I was thinking. They've been talking about a fourth film for years now. Also the T-Rex jeep chase scene is going to be amazing in 3D.

www.slashfilm.com/jurassic-park-3d-rerelease-set-summer-2013/Briefly: Wasn’t it just months ago that Steven Spielberg seemed to have moved beyond the idea of tinkering with old movies? At a screening of Raiders of the Lost Ark last year, Spielberg said he regretted digitally altering E.T., and suggested that future home video releases of that and Raiders would be their original ’81 and ’82 versions. But we’re still going to get a 3D version of Jurassic Park. The film was just dated for re-release today, and will hit theaters on July 19, 2013 according to Jeff Sneider of Variety. Spielberg did also say last year that the only one of his films he’s interested in post-converting to 3D is the original Jurassic Park. But at that point, it seemed like only an idea. Granted, if done well, the experience could be a good one, but without seeing any footage there’s no way to tell at this point. We’ve got no info on when the first 3D footage might show up, but Comic Con is a safe guess. ------------------------------------ As long as nothing is truly changed and it's only a 3D enhancement, I'll be happy. I think it'd be a fun experience, especially since I originally saw it in the theater when I was in third grade. It'd definitely be a nostalgic experience.

Michael Fassbender - Shame Christian Bale - The Machinist (although I REALLY liked him in Harsh Times) Denzel Washington - Tied between Man on Fire and Training Day Leonardo DiCaprio - Inception Robert De Niro - Casino The amount of weight he lost for that film is truly a feat. He was disgustingly skinny. Definitely a good choice for him, he was great in that film.

I thought there were quite a few hilarious moments. The actual plot seemed like an afterthought, but I thought there was enough comedy to make it worth watching.

Ip Man - Just finished watching this incredible film. Donnie Yen played the part of Yip Man perefectly, a man with such passion and reserve. After doing some reading, the film is nowhere near being historically accurate, but the gist is there. The Kung Fu sequences were phenomenal to say the least, choreographed to perfection. I can't wait to watch Ip Man 2 now.
8.5/10

The Campaign - This movie had me laughing pretty hard. I'm so glad this wasn't another PG-13 comedy, as the crudeness is definitely where most of the humor lies. The answering machine scene was f'ing hilarious! Definitely worth watching.
6.5/10

Season finale of Falling Skies. I would have been alright with a little less soap opera drama, but other than that it was fantastic. I cannot wait for next season.

Wow, that's shocking. I wonder what was going on in his life that would lead him to do this? Very sad day in the film industry. Some of my favorite Tony Scott films include True Romance, Top Gun, Man on Fire, and Deja Vu.
