Manchurian Candidate, The

Manchurian Candidate, The
Manchurian Candidate, The (2004)

IMDB rating: 6.70

Plot: When his army unit was ambushed during the first Gulf War, Sergeant Raymond Shaw saved his fellow soldiers just as his commanding officer, then-Captain Ben Marco, was knocked unconscious. Brokering the incident for political capital, Shaw eventually becomes a vice-presidential nominee, while Marco is haunted by dreams of what happened — or didn’t happen — in Kuwait. As Marco (now a Major) investigates, the story begins to unravel, to the point where he questions if it happened at all. Is it possible the entire unit was kidnapped and brainwashed to believe Shaw is a war hero as part of a plot to seize the White House? Some very powerful people at Manchurian Global corporation appear desperate to stop him from finding out.

What is your favorite Denzel Washington movie?
I love that dudes acting. In whatever role he plays, even if it’s a bad movie (The Taking of Phelam 1 2 3…well it was alright) he still manages to put on an oscar worthy performance.
But anyways, I want to rent a D.W. movie that I’ve never seen tonight but don’t know which one to pick.
Which do you suggest?

P.S. I’ve already seen: The Hurricane, John Q., Training Day, The Taking of Phelam 1 2 3, Inside Man, Remember The Titans, Man on Fire, The Manchurian Candidate, He Got Game (my favorite so far), Antwone Fisher, American Gangster, and Glory.


my favorite one is the hurricane ..oh yea He Got Game was great, man.

el duderino, Malcolm X, man… gotta watch that for sure if you haven’t seen it.

Deja Vu was really good too.

1. Malcolm X
2. Deja Vu
3. Philadelphia or Crimson Tide maybe? I haven’ t seen them yet though

go see "The Book of Eli" and you will love Washington even more. I think his best performance was by far as frank lucas in american gangster, but my favourite overall movie with him in it is inside man, cant wait for inside man 2 to come out.

I really like Denzel Washington. He’s one of my favorite actors and I try to watch all of his movies. I agree that he puts on an amazing performance despite whether or not the movie is good or not.

Deja Vu didn’t get very good reviews but I think Denzel did a great job in it. I like it because I like movies that haven’t been done before. Like Inside Man, I loved that Clive Owen stayed inside of the bank and had them fooled the whole time.

Out of Time was pretty good. The first Denzel movie I watched was The Bone Collector. I can’t remember it exactly but I remember liking it. I think Denzel is in a wheelchair.

I haven’t gotten a chance to watch The Taking of Phelam 123 but I’m sure he did a great job in it. I’ve seen the trailer(s) for The Book of Eli but I can’t seem to understand what it is about. I need to watch the trailer again and maybe read a summary.

I hope my answer was helpful. I tried to think of ones that you haven’t seen yet but that was a bit difficult, lol.

Man on Fire was one of my favorites, but since you have already seen it, I would suggest The Bone Collector, Pelican Brief, or Crimson Tide
p_borino | Jan 16, 2010


The Bone Collector is a good scary/mystery movie, maybe also check out The Pelican Brief
my personal favorite is The Hurricane
Rachel | Jan 16, 2010


The Bone Collector – awesome movie!
Fallen
Deja vu
Crimson Tide

What do you think of my poems?
This was a poem I wrote when my darling pony Franky died…
1 = GREENLEE ZODIAC

It will never leave my mind where you lay,
Just as though you were asleep in the hay.
White as a bone,
Cold as a stone,
Your skin the wrong tone.
In my heart thats where you’ll be,
Just like the leaves of a tall oak tree.
I will miss you forever and ever
Just like that wonderful weather,
Sun was out not a cloud in the sky,
That was the day before you died.

THis is a poem I wrote about a tractor being "retired" as in if it was just left out in the paddock not used…
2 = Retirement Home

Im trapped in a junkyard
With my fellow tools.
My life has come to and end,
And I don’t know what to do.
No plowing, no playing, no mud to pull in
No fun for me any more because
My tyres are deflated, my paint is flaking to,
My body is rusting and so are my tools,
Its been 7 winters, and I haven’t moved
I’ve sat here waiting, nothing to lose.
I’m trapped in this junkyard,
Unwanted and unused.

3 = Rocket wrecked

If ever I am rocketwrecked
In the ocean of the stars,
I hope that I don’t land upon
the dusty Island Mars.

While Jupiter is bigger
And Saturn has her ring,
Neptune qill be all locked up
Belonging to a King.

Uranus is to faraway
And Venus is to hot,
Pluto is an atoll,
A drifting sandy spot.

I hope I don’t reach Mercury,
‘Cos it sizzles in the sun,
Which leaves me only Island Earth
On which to have some fun.

THere is just one little thought
for the tiny Island Earth,
With all people living there is there,
Space for me?

4 = The Storm

Rain is falling,
pirouetting around me.
My clothes are wet,
crying fresh tears.
THe strong winds fingers,
rip the trees to shreads of paper.
Lighting sything the lone tree,
in the middle of the field.
THe booming voice of the thunder
starles the young childre,
sending them screaming,
into the saftey of
their mamas arms.
Rain is falling,
pirouetting around me.

5 = Noise

I like noise
The winnie of a horse, the groan of a truck.
The bark of a dog all covered in muck!
The maaa of a lamb crying for mum.
The oink of a pig eating a plum.

The pitter patter of little mice feet,
Through heavy hay the carefully creap.
The squlech of my gumboot
Getting pulled out of mud.
My little gummie STUCK down I fall with a thud.

The rosters crow, and the engine’s crank,
Is the alarm clock for the old pony, Frank.
The vroom of a motorbike like a giant
Plane roaring over jumps.
I like Noise

6 = (my fave) The Air Bellarina

The butterfly is dawn,
Opening into a new day.
Flexing its wings, it is a new
Born baby, delicate and weak.
Drip, drip, drip, it is a wet flower,
Drying after the morning shower.
Floating on the light air.
It is snow fall in the breeze,
Dancing, twirling a new creation.
Children and adults admiring,
The beauty of a ballerina,
Dancing on the stage.
Landing on the occasional swan plant,
For a seconds rest.
Before starting the journey,
To the next stop, to lay an egg.
Then back home to say,
The last goodbye.
The butterfly is dawn,
Opening into a new day.

any tips ?

xx

What is the easiest way to find a black feather?
Well i really want to do this um thing…. but to do it i need a black feather. I searched all through the woods and i found nothing but leaves and trees. I just went down our driveway and through some four wheeler trails. Can anyone tell me specific places or things i should look out for to try to find one?


Look and listen for crows. Just before sundown the birds head for their roost. Thats where you can find feathers. You could spray paint a chicken feather,if you can get one.

near a pond or body of water gees and ducks like to hang out around ponds. Near dusk buzzards all flock to one tree look for large swarms of them in the air near sundown.

El Cid – HD Ready:720p (Super Quality)

El CidEl Cid (1961)

IMDB rating: 7.20

Plot: Eleventh-century Spain is divided into Christian kingdoms and Moorish strongholds. The young Rodrigo Diaz de Bivar—dubbed El Cid by his followers—vows to see his country at peace, free from the invader. Vigorously brave and resourceful, the noble knight hates bloodshed and faces treason charges at court for the clemency shown to some emirs. His accuser, Gomez, father of his fiancee, Chimene, dies in the resulting duel. Chimene’s avowed vengeance plot fails and Rodrigo is given her hand; the marriage is not consummated and she enters a convent. On Ferdinand’s death, his kingdom is divided among his three children. Sancho challenges the decision and imprisons Alfonso, who is released by the Cid. The African war-lord, Ben Yssef, takes advantage of the quarrel by having Sancho assassinated. Alfonso now claims that throne, too, and exiles the Cid. Chimene realizes the nobility of her husband and joins him, but returns to the convent with their two children, when he goes into battle against Ben Yussef. The years pass, El Cid becomes a revered warrior, but refuses to aid Alfonso, preferring his own strategy. He lays siege to Valencia, catapulting food into its starving garrison; when the Valencians kill their evil ruler, Al Kadir, they offer the crown to the Cid. He sends it to Alfonso, who rushes, hysterically gratified, to his side. But the Cid has been hit by a stray arrow. Attended by Chimene, he hides the wound from his men and prepares a final bid to drive the Moors from Spain.
