[Ncabs] Movie Options

[Cindy Bennett]

The thing about The Passion of the Christ is that it evokes a lot of
emotions, I mean, a lot. And if we want this to be light hearted, I do
not think that is a good option. Also, the entire movie is in Aramaic
and I think some parts are in another language that is not English, so
I wonder how the descriptive voice works, if they say everything in
English, because if so, it would be happening for the entire movie.

I like 40 Year old Vergin, Beverly Hills Cop, Bruce Almighty, Forrest
Gump, Liar Liar, Meet the Parents, Moulin, Pirates of the Caribbean,
and Knocked Up. And the Terminal from the previous message was good
and of course my beloved Pixar movies. I think they had the first 2
Toy Stories and another one.
