signs
by this is a funny tidbit i read somewhere about the movie "signs"
Very mysteriously, people are paying good money to see this: In the Mel Gibson movie "Signs" -- the slowest-moving thriller of all time -- Gibson has an enormous field of corn that's "high as an elephant's eye" and ready for immediate harvest. Yet he does no farming. No agricultural implements of any kind are visible anywhere, and Gibson performs not a moment's worth of farm work. Where did this corn come from? That, not the crop circles, is the real mystery of the movie.
Meanwhile the supposedly strange phenomenon of crop circles, which supposedly cannot be made by any known technology, has long been known in England, where this all started, as hoaxing. There is even an English association of crop-circle hoaxers with a website that gives instructions on how to do with a few simple tools that which cannot be done.

Yea man, that movie sucked. i didn't like it at all. why do people like it. ugh
i didnt think it sucked... i just didnt know what to think... i went with matt and friends, and it was weird... we all got up after... and it was dead silence, i didnt knw what to say, or think about it... it wasnt scary at all, just full of suspense i guess. but he sure did have a lot of corn, i think he yelled at his kids more, then he did farm anything... wouldnt he have to take care of equipment or somethin? that guy had the life (beside being attacked by a renegade alien), he did nothing all day. well i guess his life was pretty boring... and he couldnt get people to understand he wasnt a rev anymore... foolish townspeople
that movie was awesome,,, and the thing with haven a crop feild especially corn, you DONT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING, except for maybe turn the irrigators on, if it doesnt rain.. so technically if all he had was a corn feild then he had the life, he didnt really have to do anything , until harvest time, and apparently during the movie it wasnt harvest time. and i know this cause my sister married a farmer and he has corn fields, and we were talkin about em the other weekend..
maybe it's just me but I thought that SIGNS was really really STUPID and BORING!!
yea i'm with you on that boss. mel gibson stinks. signs stinks... it was sooo long and so unfulfulling. ugh
i just thought it was a whole bunch of suspense that led up to nothing
it lead up to aliens, see i didnt think the movie was gunna actually be about aliens, so up until they showed the alien, i was like oh it REALLY is about aliens taken over the earth, so i liked it cause as i was watching it it was intense, and i was thinkin it wasnt SERIUOSLY gunna be aliens, so i was like thinkin it was gunna be something else, adn waiting for it to be, but then when he was locked in the cubbard the alien and it grabbed him that was pritty crazy...
i'm with you on that too boss. it was so stupid. i mean it might have been good for those who were into the whole emotional aspect of it.. you know.. SIGNS as in miracles.. like the girl with the water problem being a miracle, kid having asthma a miracle.. but that was not i wanted to see. i wanted aliens to come down steal our women and then we have to fight back with ginsu knives and ninja stars.
haha, see i knew nothing about the movie, at all,, so i wasnt expecting it to be aliens and combat with aliens, i was expecting a tense movie , and that it was, you have to agree
no i disagree... suspense.. it means a build up leading to something... but there was all this building up ... but it lead to nothing... thus it can not be suspense.. it was just a hold up. a waste of my time. a big pile of dung. a mother of all that is soft squishy brown and smelly.
ahha
dude it lead up to aliens atackin his house, and grabin his kid, and blowin some alien mist in his breath of life pathway
and i have to say the movie was also prity comical, i wasnt expecting it to be
yea i laughed a few times.
but seriously... what aliens with the kind of technology that could get them all the way accross the galaxy to our planet, would invade earth without any protective suits?? i mean especially since they were very vulnerable to our most plentiful substance: water! it just killed the realism for me... sorry
yeah,, but who says aliens are smarter then humans, and plus the fact there made up.they dont exist , so how could they possibly have the technology to even come to earth,, its all made up , so its like a whatever thing, cmon, if the aliens were smart and did take over the earth and there was a battle the movie would have sucked cause then what.. NOTHING.. this leaves it so they might come back with more vengance!!
My thing is that being a wittness makes all that crap even more ridiculous to believe. Like how they thought that those "miracles" were really signs from God or something, and at the end Mel goes back to being a reverend. But we all know that God doesn't agree with any of that stuff (not that i'm saying it was wrong to see the movie, it was just a fantasy to me), so to me it was just really dumb. But i must say it was better than XXX- WHAT a disappointment. Diesel's looks couldn't even compensate for the horrible acting and lack of intelligence that went into that movie.
exactly... all the aliens... being so smart and everything went away cause of H2O???? couldnt they wear suits or stay away from it?? man, that made independence day look like an all-time number one movie
well they could have been from a planet where the compound H20 did not exists... who knows what their planet was like... so that was not what through me off.. it was just the whole stupid crop circle thing and the whole suspense to sleep crap
Matt! you are such a jerk. i used that exact phrase when telling you and others my summary of the movie.
I really liked it, & all the people I talked to about it that saw it liked it to, except for you and thai that i know of!
IT WOULD have been so much better if MEL GIBSON wasnt in it.. Or if he was eaten.....
i'm predicting a retort from mike here... being that you insulted his boyfriend
Hey its the truth... Mel gibson is wayyyy past his time..
your way off on that!
As If! no way Mel he is a great actor but wrong movie.. dont get me wrong i like his acting just that movie isnt for him and he is a little over his time..
Nah
Like So yeah you gotta give me that....
not really
What is this a Love for mel gibson i am telling you mel is so past his time. now his other movies except leathel weapon were good..
ha, I differ on that, braveheart was PHENOMINAL
i liked braveheart too
its just Leathel weapon was TERRIBLE
Ii dont think I ever realy watched any of the leathal weapons, so I duno
I watched them and hated them I think he is entitled as an actor to have some flop movies and signs is one of them
There was a show on the Learning Channel that talked about how crop circles are made. With rope and a couple sickles. Big mystery.
yeah I saw that to
i hate you all... mel is my hero!!!!
you're starting to scare me mike
thats the effect i was going for...
Well why dont you Marry him Mike its only Illegal in 48 states
but not in canada!
no.. it would never work with his work schedule....
wow... sounds like you've given this alot of thought.
only on the weekends...
Yes..... well you could marry someone else on the weekdays and be married to Mel on weekends... you would have to alternate with his children on the weekends tho
i liked the movie...it wasnt my fav...but i like being scared...and i thought it was pretty scary...and Mel rules...he's awesome...in any movie. haha
THANKS jahanna!!!!
Dont Encourage Him He has A Rare Condition...... MELosidus GibsonItus......
uh, so SHOULD i or should i NOT go see this movie?
OOOOOH go see it!!! it honestly is a good movie... and thats not just because a GREAT actor is in it
I havent seen the movie... i geuss I'll just rent it
I can't really figure out what I think about the movie. However, I do have an over active imagination which causes me to always see aliens now (especially that news clip scene from Mexico..I keep seeing the alien walking)..like now I have scared myself into not being able to look at my window because I swear I'll see an alien there. The movie itself was kind of funny and kept you a bit edgy.
the movie was so frighening. even though the ending wasn't great, it didn't matter because i spent the whole time switchin between laughing and jumping out of my seat.
