Como agua para chocolate (Like Water For Chocolate)

It was such a great movie! It combines comedy, drama, sex, and cooking. It's erotic, but not overly-graphic like most Spanish-language movies. It's also one of the best Spanish-language movies that I have seen, and while it uses a lot of magical realism, it's not confusing or hard to follow.

Yeah, the ending was so weird! It kind of ruined the movie because I thought that the beginning was good. There are better movies by Pedro Almodovar. Hable con ella is really good. I had to watch it for my Spanish class last semester. The ending's kind of surprising, but it makes sense.

I will have to check that one out. Someone also told me (in another group) that Motorcycle Diaries was good too. I think it stars the guy who played in Bad Education.

I think I may have gotten an edited version of Bad Education as someone told there was an explicit sex scene in it but my version did not have it. I got it from Blockbuster. Of course I was also working on my computer at the same time and could have missed the sex scene but I don't think so.

Oh and yes the ending was weird but Testostorone still has the weirdest. I think that was the worse movie in many ways. It was just too ridiculous for me.

I have a very wide range of likes in movies and even have liked some pretty weird or crazy movies (Zoolander for instance) but the ending and other things in Testostorone were too way out there for even me.

Yeah, Motorcycle Diaries is really good. Gael Garcia Bernal is in it, and it's more of an American-type movie because I think Robert Redford produced it or something. I don't even think there's any sex in it, and the only reason it's rated R is because of the language.

The version that I saw was rated NC-17, and there was supposed to be one graphic sex scene...but I didn't see it. :blink:

A few friends, my roommate, and I watched Bridget Jones's Diary in our room. It's my favourite movie!! It's so funny and both Hugh Grant and Colin Firth are so sexy!!

We're watching the sequel, Bridget Jones: Edge of Reason in a few minutes. It's not as good as the first one, but it's still very funny!

I agree about Urban Legend. I like those movies. They scare kids. That's funny.

I saw Wicker Park. I was expecting something along the lines of Swimfan with the hot, crazy, psycho-!@#$%^&*] who falls in love with the guy who's with the All-American girl and then she tries and kill the girl. But I thought Wicker Park was boring and I'm glad I got it free from the library. I only liked the fact that Josh Hartnett and Matthew Lilliard were both unknowingly having sex with the same chick who they both considered thier girlfriend. She was playing like everyone in the movie and that's about all I liked. It took too long to develop suspense and drama so I don't recommend renting it.

    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
