OMG Daemia...its a Minnesota\Wisconsin accent. They have a large Scandanavian population that keeps the old country accent alive. Anyway I liked everybody's performance in that. Not sure how close it was to the actual event but the comic touch worked.

wellllll........

Since I live in Minnesota, and only 45 minutes from Brainerd,

the accents were close - albeit a bit over the top but very very very very close - the directors - the Coen Brothers went to high school with some friends of mine so yeah they are total Minnesotans. btw I grew up only a few minutes from there too

Not sure about the facts of the true story but it did make for one helluva great movie -

i love the facte that alot of Minnesotans got completely pissed of their portrait - it was dead on, get over it!

if you haven't seen it- do see it - the performances are great -

side note - Frances McDormand is married to the director

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
10/10
I never stopped laughing, and I watch NASCAR religously!
I am one of those people the movie is making fun of and I still loved it!

Hi. I'm Ricky Bobby. If you don't chew Big Red, then fuck you!

On The Waterfront (1954)
http://www.tvguide.com/movies/waterfront/108137

Really good movie. Watched it on TCM; uncut, commercial-free, in letterbox.

Attached wav file of dialog from classic scene. (The movie is not actually about boxing, btw...)

Regards,

quadz

Firewall (2006):

Starring:
Harrison Ford
Paul Bettany

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_%28movie%29 <-- Link contains spoilers

I thought it was pretty good.

Ford is Vice President of Security at a bank, and Bettany holds Ford's family hostage so he will help him steal money electronically from the bank.

The Lost World (1960)
http://www.tvguide.com/detail/movie.aspx?tvobjectid=104713

OK, the reviewers on the tvguide site gave this movie 1 1/2 stars, and I'd say that's about right.

magical pig · « **Reply #73 on:** March 05, 2007, 08:24:37 AM »

i don;t think mst3k ever did that one - i have seen that movie - it is damn funny...

another nice find quadz...

If you liked Lost World, Quadz, then The Time Machine is in the same vein. HG Wells novel about going a man journeying into the future. Not bad for a 1964 movie.
