Magnolia
I just watched this movie for the first time, and I loved it. It was very good, I liked it much better than Punch-Drunk Love, which was also good.
Paul Thomas Anderson really knows what he's fucking doing.
WHERE ARE YOU DOWNLOADING IT FROM!!!!! I want it.....please...
yeah i like the beginning of magnolia where there talking about all the myths, like how that kids mom was actually the one that killed him cuz he would have landed in a safety net. and they ending is totally fucked up
When I saw Magnolia for the second time, it was one of my favorite experiences in a theater. There were only some ten-eleven people there, and they were all obviously going to see it again because when "wise up" started, I could hear people in the audience singing along. It was pretty cool.

That Phillip Seymour Hoffman...he's a riot!

The only thing I would have liked to see would have been for more of an integration of the Tom Cruise/ dying father storyline with the rest of the stories as it seemed a bit cut off from the rest.
RESPECT THE COCK!
Suck me beautiful...
and [I]TAME[/I]... the cunt!
im downloading it off of kazaa

ya goddamn right it is.
i'm actually working on a custom figure of patrick.
PS - [i]Magnolia[/i] is in my top 5 movies of all time.
[i]sometimes its good to rock out[/i]
All i have are these [i]Action Bills[/i].
This film was great. Tom Cruise made me laugh so much:
'NO! Here! NOW....'
I found it very depressing though; when the little boy goes into his father's bedroom and pleads him to be nicer to him...
Event Horizon and Mortal Kombot were both made by a different Paul Anderson, Paul W.S. Anderson.
Apparently there's a porn director named Paul Anderson, I wonder if it's deliberate, or if all the Paul Andersons are really the same person playing some practical joke on the film world.
come on, we all know Mr. Anderson is really [i]The One[/i]
All i have are these [i]Action Bills[/i].
But I thought that was Jet Li ripping off The True One, but then again the prophecy isn't true, so their is no One.
Stupid ripoffs.
Oh, Jesus, my Sarcasmeter is registering off the fucking scale... too... much... smartass...
i was looking at your avatar eponymous and i was wondering isnt there a movie where a dude tries to hang himself and the ceiling breaks on him funny as shit, is your avatar and that movie one in the same
ohhh yeah it is!!!1 whats it called, the Bret Easton Ellis one. Rules of Attraction!!!! i was staring and staring at that and couldnt figure out where it was from
yeah thanx knoxville, that scene is fuckin hilarious, and i like how jessica biel goes from being on 7th heaven to fuckin the entire football team thats awesome and also the victor (name?) scene in europe, was pretty sweet to.
lol oh God i laughed so hard at that scene. what was the victor scene in erope again? i rmemeber somethign about him going fastforward
yeah i think its victor, he was goin in fast forwar the whole time and it was still like 5 minutes long, imagine what an experience huh?
He narrates a very flashy quick scene in Europe, and the narration is done incredibly fast, as is the filming.
It's a really well done scene.
yes i agree with leonard
Well, looks like I'm not needed...
*walks off towards the horizon*
It reminds me of the part in A Nightmare on Elm St. where Johnny Depp dies, though my memory of it is a tad bit fuzzy.
this movies awesome, the scene with Donny and the Saloman brothers is hoillarious
"Braces? You need braces? You don't need braces your teeth look fine."
"They look fine Donny"
Just saw it. Loved it. Two questions:
What the hell is with the Frogs? My girlfriend says that she believes it is biblical in one sense or another.
What the hell is with the name? They don't really allude to that in any way I can remember.
Maybe me watching it three or four more times will help, though. Seems like that kind of movie. I love those kind of movies.
the frogs, there is real no expectation except that coincidences bring people together. isnt it funny how sometimes you meet up with people you know under the most unbelivably ways
as for the title, i havnt a clue
"It wasn't until after I got through with the writing that I began to discover what it might mean, which is this: you get to a point in your life, and shit is happening, and everything's out of your control, and suddenly, a rain of frogs just makes sense. You're staring at a doctor who is telling you something is wrong, and while we know what it is, we have no way of fixing it. And you just go: "So what you're telling me, basically, is that it's raining frogs from the sky." I'm not someone who's ever had a special fascination with UFO's or supernatural phenomena or anything but I guess I just found myself at a point in my life where I was going through some shitty stuff, and I was ready for some sort of weird religious experience, or as close as I could get to one. So then I began to decipher things about frogs and history things like this notion that as far back as the Romans, people have been able to judge the health of a society by the health of its frogs: the health of a frog, the vibe of a frog, the texture of the frog, its looks, how much wetness is on it, everything. The frogs are a barometer for who we are as a people. We're polluting ourselves, we're killing ourselves, and the frogs are telling us so, because they're all getting sick and deformed. And I didn't even know it was in the bible until Henry Gibson gave me a copy of it, bookmarked to the appropriate frog passage."

Thank's a heap, knoxville.
But I'm still scratching my head about the title...
originally it was all set to end on a street called magnolia. theres also a rumour that eatin the root of a magnolia can help cure cancer. numerous other references to, head over to PTA's website (coffeeandciggarettes.com or somethign like that) and theres a lot omre info
there are actual occurances where it has rained frogs as well, and not just in the biblical age
