What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Ed Hocken]

It's good music, seemed odd that Queen of all things was brought in. *shrug*

[Captain Russ]

But had Russell been in this movie? It would have elevated the material A LOT.

I know right?

The rotoscope demons that came out of The Kurgan's neckslot scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. As did the Cold War (which had all but ended once I developed a sense of self).

[Ed Hocken]

Damn, the idea of Russell and Connery? It would wash the stench of Captain Ron and EFLA right out!

[Captain Russ]

EFLA has good things in it, which are then eradicated with awful computer effects. Snake is still Snake, so there is a quantum of solace for that film. And the Surgeon General of Beverly Hills should have been the big bad.

MAKE IT PRACTICAL, YOU DICKS.

Love that movie! I have it in my queue to watch again this week.

It's on Instant... I'm watching it now.

[Ed Hocken]

I agree about the Surgeon General and they should have removed all "Cleveland" references. No one cares.

[Nathan]

Kurt Russell would not have been able to pull it off. Can't see it. Lambert almost had it but not quite. He did well with the wounded/haunted existence angle.

True.

Though if they had the budget, it would have been an awesome prologue.

[Ed Hocken]

Lambert never had it, because Lambert was never good to begin with. I think Russell could do it, if given the chance.

But he can't speaka well.

Lambert should have been a mute (or dubbed by Bryan Blessed...just kidding). It served him very well when he was cast out of the village. Nary a word spoken, but much conveyed.

BULLSHIT. He was absolutely stunning as Tarzan.

Regarding Queen: 'Highlander' was directed by Russell Mulcahy, a guy who cut his teeth doing music videos for bands like Duran Duran and Queen. Because of his friendship with Queen, he asked them to contribute a song to the film. The band saw a rough cut of the film, loved it, and offered to make a whole soundtrack for it.

I agree that his voice/accent were pretty bad for the most part. Also agree with the village scene.

[Ed Hocken]

I'll have to see this "Tarzan", but from what I've seen of Lambert. He's not very good.

[Nathan]

I thought he got a lot of praise. He's mostly nude and gutteral until the end. Weird movie.

Watch it. 'Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan' is a really, REALLY good movie. I'd even rank it as the definitive Tarzan film, above the Johnny Wiesmuller ones (which are VERY good, for the most part).
