Awake

[Junkyard]

The thread for discussing "Awake:"

Okay, so I'm always game for any Jessica Alba movie that won't make my brain bleed. Awake actually looked, if not "good," then at least "standard." I go to it's Yahoo movies page to see what people are saying, and....


"What the? Hayden Christensen? Hayden Christensen?!! Why did you...? HE CAN'T ACT HE CAN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE HE'S TRYING TO ACT WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU PUT HIM IN A MOVIE YOU STUPID ASSHOLES??!!!"

Note that I am quoting myself.
'Course, it's my own damn fault for trying to find a good movie that's not Sin City with Jessica Alba in it.

My.... God. The breathtaking injustice of the universe.

ONE DAY THERE WILL BE A RECKONING, MISTER CHRISTENSEN!!!

Believe me, the producers of this film did not overlook the "chicks think he's hot" factor.

None exist.  She's undeniably a fine looking woman but unfortunately she can't act worth a damn.

Still, putting her in the same films as Anakin?

[mrbasehart]

He does have talent, as he was good in Shattered Glass, but I'm not rushing to see this movie anytime soon.

[Tyrant]

Is it just me, or is the premise for Awake one of the dumbest things ever? Has Hollywood really run that dry of ideas?

when movies like this get made I think Hollwood needs to be put out of its/our misery

Well, at least Jessica Alba never starred in Brat-

.... wait. Lemmie check something....


DAMN IT! Jessica Alba will be appearing in the sequel, "Bratz 2: Back in Bratz."
Nevermind then.

So the premise is that inside all of us there is an annoying, superficial, dumb-as-bricks prosti-tot ?

And you thought Barbie was superficial...

Agreed, not sure why he's so bad in everything else. Does he have a twin brother who just fancied being Hayden for one movie or something?

"Bratz 2: Back in Bratz."

Um will that be an R, NC-17 or X?

Awake: Can You Stay It?

Coming 2007 from... *snore*

This premise was used in an episode of Tales From The Crypt, as well as an episode of Stephen King's Nightmares And Dreamscapes. Wait, no, they never had episodes about a wooden boy coming to life and becoming a movie star.

My.... God. The breathtaking injustice of the universe.

What are you talking about? This is PERFECT. Except... hang on, they didn't cancel each other out of existence when they kissed? Dammit!

Jessica Alba will be appearing in the sequel, "Bratz 2: Back in Bratz."

Jessica Alba will be appearing in a movie about shallow teenagers with oversized plastic heads, and you say there's no justice in the universe?
