I've only seen 12 Monkeys and Dr. Parnassus, unfortunately.
Not unfortunate, just lots of entertainment to come.

But yes, my name was inspired by that film. :) I do like Gilliam's style a lot though.

Cheers.

Welcome Parnassus. We try to be friendly.

Clearly you didn't see his anti-Die Hard stance.

I did, and we can be all encompassing. And you supported his stance.

No, I quoted the the part of his paragraph that explained why DH is better. As are all DHs in fact.

Hello! I'm new here. Thanks for having me! If you're having me.

I was born in 1982, my initials are ET, and I often feel I don't belong here, so every username and email address ever use "et". I was called ET when I was younger. One of my best friends from college still calls me ET. I have a tattoo of ET on my left upper arm/shoulder. I don't even watch the movie that often, though I quite like it. We were just brought together by happenstance.

I'm a teacher.  ;D

I love watching movies.   :-*

Not sure what I'm thinking, but I have registered here before, though it's been years. I see my Letterboxd, that I never really got into, on there. Maybe I'll give that a shot again.  Anyway, wasn't on her long before. Now that I think of it, I believe then you had to say whether you preferred Back to the Future, or... I can't remember.

NO... you had to say you preferred DIE HARD.... not that other movie...

I included the link in my other thread you posted in, but only go there if you get it right.

Also.. just kidding, vote as you wish and stick around for a while or forever.
