The past week we have heard a few announcements regarding big roles. We have a new Bond Girl and some Bond Villains, as well as some more people on the Spider-Man 3 roster, but the big casting question remains hanging in the air: who is going to be Wonder Woman in the new, big Wonder Woman movie? Do you want the moviemakers to go for somebody a bit older, with a big reputation, or would you prefer to see a younger actress? Vote now in the poll in the right column of the page!
Last week's poll: Which movie had the biggest emotional impact on you?
Okay, so this poll actually ran for quite a few weeks, but this only meant we had an exciting race on our hands. In the end, victory went to Bambi. Probably not that surprising, since this is a movie that everybody remembers seeing when they were a little kid and crying their eyes out at 'that' scene. Bambi grabbed 21 percent, three more than second place winner The Shawshank Redemption. It's a long way down to number three, Lost in Translation, which scored 12 percent (and my personal vote), with Requiem for a Dream and Old Yeller tied in fourth. Even lower, we have A Beautiful Mind, Animal Farm, Philadelphia, Leaving Las Vegas and, in tenth and last place, All Quiet on the Western Front with 3 percent of the votes.
The Winter Olympics are running at full steam, which gives us a good reason to look at sports movies, and, more importantly, which ones are the best. Personally, I love sports movies. I know they are always full of cliches, but when well made, they can be emotional, fun and really rouse your spirits. So, which one is your favorite? You will find the list of choices on the right side of the page (might require a bit of scrolling up or down). If you have a suggestion that is not in the list, feel free to drop it in the comments section!
