Seriously? LOL

Darqdean, I meant Wings of Desire was the original, and the Hollywood version was the travesty that was completely uncalled for...can't remember it's name nor do I care to. It was a stripped down version complete with a brazen classic Hollywood sex by the fireside scene...I'm sorry, but Hollywood has yet to master the art of "subtlety". WoD is a beautiful film, but this version didn't do any justice to the original.

I just watched Much ado About nothing again and I've come to the conclusion that Kenneth had just been boxed about the ears when he cast Reeves. cage is i think the forerunner to Reeves. Neither can act but they wind up with the best roles perhaps due to a blood pact with the Desolate One

Hmm whos the better D list actor? Probably Kiano... Quiano....Keyannoe? But Nicolas Cage has got to be the most overrated, and terribly overrated at that, actor in a long time. I stick out my tongue and blow raspberries at them both Tongue.
1 Chronicles 13:7-9

Then David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.

I voted for Nicolas Cage only because Keanu Reeves manages to stay off the bottom of the barrel by standing on Kevin Costners shoulders.
