Sometimes the British are as good as the French

02.25.2008

Having been recommended this movie by a number of people, I finally remembered to watch it. It was an awesome movie, which I also highly recommend to anyone else. It’s a good movie with a wide audience and Chewitel Ejiofor nails his part brilliantly. I also recently saw him in “Talk to Me” and “Children of Men” and of course remember him from that little space drama he did, so seeing him as a drag queen was a little strange. He’s got the acting chops to carry it off though and has really made me like him more and more as an actor. It reminds me of watching “The Matrix” and seeing Hugo Weaving as Agent Smith, not Mitzi Del Bra from “Priscilla Queen of the Desert”.

    The (wo)Man with one red shoe.

  3. Matt says:

    Wonder Women?

  4. Matt says:

    Superman?

  5. Matt says:

    Supergirl?

  6. Adam says:

    Kinky Boots?

  7. Yomomma says:

    I think that you may be the winner.

  8. Manduh says:

    I really enjoyed Kinky Boots!

  9. Yomomma says:

    That’s what he said.

  10. Matt says:

    I never saw it but I like the guy that starred in it.

  11. Todd says:

    He rocked in BSG! I can do without Caspar Van Diem in that show though. He really drags that show down although I’m not as excited by his manly jawline as the ladies are, perhaps.
    (and you did it exactly right :-) )

  12. Yomomma says:

    Yay!

  13. Todd says:

    I’m going to need a ruling from the judges. Can Manduh say ” ‘him’ in Starship Troopers” but using Denise Richards (who is clearly a ‘her’) as the connector?

  14. Manduh says:

    Yeah I much preferred him in Wild Things.

  15. Matt says:

    I’m lost.

  16. geeeek says:

    Tone Loc was in a movie?

  17. Manduh says:

    Really that quickly you were lost?

    Yeah he had a brief part in Monster’s Ball

  18. Matt says:

    I thought that was “Bebe’s Kids”

  19. Todd says:

    Now I’m lost, I caught it up until geeeek. Manduh, can you fill in please?
    Chewitel was in Serenity
    Serenity = BSG
    Lee Odama = Caspar Van Diem (from starship troopers)
    Caspar/Lee = Kevin Bacon or Matt Dillon?

  20. Manduh says:

    AMATEURS! All of you!
    Starship Troopers = Denise Richards = WIld Things

  21. Manduh says:

    Tone Loc did song Wild Thing which leads to Puffy being in Monster’s Ball

  22. Manduh says:

    I think Matt screwed up because Tone Loc really did a voice in Bebe’s Kids

  23. Matt says:

    I thought he was in a different show, I should have said “Fat Albert” or something. I didn’t realize Casper Van Dien was in Starship Troopers (which could have gone over to Storm Troopers too).

  24. Matt says:

    Mandy fucked it up.

  25. Yomomma says:

    Wasn’t he in Battlestar Galactica?
    (Did I do it right??)

  26. Matt says:

    We should have a congressional hearing.

  27. Adam says:

    The quote from Manduh would be “I think Matt misremembered.”

  28. Adam says:

    I would blame it on the unsportsmanlike usage of HGH (Hollywood’n'vine Greatness Hormone).

  29. Manduh says:

    We have done those jumps before, made a kevin bacon like connection. Matt is the one that screwed it up that is why he is trying to blame me, what a disappointment after Yoy started us out so well.
