movies, Scarface

daynagirl @daynagirl (31) • Canada 6 Feb 07

What's your favorite part in the movie? Mine is when Tony shoots Frank & the cop guy at Franks office & then gives Ernie the job, & then goes & wakes up Elvira & tells her,,"You coming with me."

complexvanilla The scene that you mentioned is one of my favorites. The movie is so fast-paced that there are several special/funny/memorable lines that go by in a flash and are not easily recalled, like the scene in which Frank is inviting Montana to the restaurant. Frank...

complexvanilla Ouch! That must have hurt, both physically as well as emotionally.. Experiences like these cause one's faith in the public to go down, but fortunately for you, the man in the van ahead of you was not such a jerk. If he too had belonged to the same class of...

Do you really mean it when you say "I love you"?

rosdimy @rosdimy (3926) • Malaysia 28 Nov 08

The sentence or phrase "I love you" is commonly used in most relationships. I did not use it (so far) because I am not sure of my sincerity. Instead I use "I care" and try to show it through my actions. In your case do you...

love

sincere

complexvanilla Well, 'I love you' is a sentence which is much bandied about, and movies and novels have gone on to use that as a punchline, a motto, a brand's tagline, and just about anything, resulting in the fact that very few people mean it when they mouth it. I would...

Opposites attract?

joy4you @joy4you (641) • India 27 Nov 08

Do you think in a relationship the partners should be opposites or a complimentary pair or should both of them have same likes, dislikes and interests etc? Complimentary pairs may have more variety of skills in their...

complexvanilla Nice discussion, and I think you have expressed the strongest part of the either side of the coin. I personally feel that people should be as diverse as possible as that means that each is that much more curious about the other. If I think in exactly the same...

how do you like Daniel Craig as James Bond?

oyenkai @oyenkai (4394) • Philippines 27 Nov 08

So far I see that my guy friends don't like him very much as James Bond. Something about being to crude and too brute. They say that James Bond should be suave and that they are really disappointed with the latest movie release...

complexvanilla Ugh! I think the creators of the James Bond movies could not have found a more ugly Bond if they had tried harder! Daniel Craig looks more like a lumberjack or long-distance truck driver and less like a suave-superspy. He seems to have all the grace and poise...

complexvanilla I think the question is absurd. It's like asking 'If so many people are stealing cars, is stealing cars really illegal? Is it not normal?' Software piracy is a crime, as much as stealing cars is a crime, but amongst crimes, it enjoys a white-collar status. The...

Are You Stupid?

yuna15 @yuna15 (2706) • Philippines 27 Nov 08

complexvanilla I don't want to sound condescending, but why is it that women, who themselves have drinking problems, most invariably find the crappiest kind of husbands? It's not that everybody has to be married. If they have such poor spouse-choosing skills, it's better...

Break up can cause death?

lovelyvelle @lovelyvelle (639) 27 Nov 08

complexvanilla I don't believe it's the break-up that caused the death or for that matter, could cause one. Many of us go through many painful moments in life, sometimes even breakups, but we don't decide to end it all. The people who do so are those who are predisposed to...
