Thanks, Shane.
That does improve my 3rd Eye experience.
Seriously, makes it much easier to read stuff and less scrolling needed. Not sure if that's just my computer ... but I'm happy.
Fyi, you were right in Movie Trivia. The hint was referencing My Fair Lady. On a tangent, last year I had a girlfriend who reminded me of Audrey Hepburn, especially when she had her hair up. She was super thin and had perfect posture. Btw, I have no idea which forum I'm in at the moment. |

As much as I didn't like the movie overall, I could still see myself giving Ms. Fanning a Blanche Nomination for Supporting Actress. My gosh that child is good.
and one of the Ten Most Fascinating Persons of the Year - according to Ba wa
was that not one of the worst lists yet??  |

| On my settings my avatar doesn't do much of anything. It's just slightly larger and doesn't take up any room to speak of. That's why I wasn't taking anyone seriously until last night. Sorry I just didn't know. |

Shane, your avatar looks good. Both size and content.
I avatarized (ugh!) a Hopper painting of a movie theater, and it looks like crap because it's too small and you can't make out anything. I had no luck putting up an ascii pic of Audrey Hepburn, though I wasted nearly 30 minutes cutting it down to size and doing other useless tinkering. |

I realized I have never seen her in anything except previews. She doesn't appeal to me........but I have netflixed Trapped........just to be sure.
For a great child performance review Interview with the Vampire. Kirsten Dunst outperforms Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Antonio Banderos, and Steven Rea. For some reason her dimples aren't obvious, either.
That film could have been much better. Anybody who wants to dehunk Pitt and Cruise should watch it. A strawberry blonde Tom Cruise. Bad, bad, bad. |

Trapped is absolutely terrible, near-unwatchable, despite Kevin Bacon, Charlize Theron, and Courtney Love in a so-bad-it's-almost-good performance. The movie would be a totally unfair introduction to the talents of Dakota Fanning. Anything else she's done, including the very trashy but fascinating Hide and Seek, would be a better choice. |

Netflixed Trapped??!!?? (I don't even remember Ms. Fanning in that)
My gosh, if you're going to have to sit through a bad movie for a fabulous Dakota Fanning performance, I'd say I Am Sam is the best bet. |

| I agree, Dunst was the best thing about Interview with A Vampire. What a dumbass movie. Never read the book, maybe it's dumbass too? |

I have the stamina to watch terrible films if I want to see certain actors. Later I can enjoy adding up the faulty aspects of editing, directing, acting, wardrobing, etc.
Gary.........Interview with the Vampire is a great read. Anne Rice has a very sensual style. She has just written a book called, Christ the Lord, Out of Egypt. No more vampires. She has gone back to the Catholic church. |

| The book (Interview with the Vampire) is excellent - I think the problem was there's too much going on to capture in 3 hours. |

I know about her new book. Jon Stewart did a very funny bit on it a week or two ago.
I think the Catholic church is pretty entwined in the Vampire mystique. |

The book was verrryyyy good. Unlike the following sequels that were turgid to say the least. IMHO |
