 Do You Really (REALLY) Really Know James? (Week 17)  Nothing Like Some Golden (?) OldiesMonday, June 22: ABOUT LAST NIGHT (1986) Tuesday, June 23: TRANSFORMERS 2 Saturday, June 27: THE MISSION (1986) Not one, but two classics this week, just to shake things up. The main event this week is the release of 'Transfomers 2', the big-budget follow-up to the original popcorm muncher James loved so dearly. Confidence-inspiring? Also, to further twist your man nipples, I've thrown in Roland Joffe's 'The Mission', which is by the man who also made one of James' top 100 films, 'Captivity'. Should be funny. As for 'About Last Night'... well, here goes the winner of that one. That is true talent. Good luck, gentlemen (and oafolay).

About Last Night... - 3.0 (a search tells me this is "underrated")

The Mission - 3.5

Re: Do You Really (REALLY) Really Know James? (Week 17) About Last Night: *** 1/2 Ebert gave it four stars, so it's probably a bit better than your average Brat Pack flick Transformers 2: * 1/2 Like Patrick said, James doesn't understand awesomeness, so I'm sure he'll hate it The Mission: *** 1/2 I've only seen part of it, and it was pretty good. I'm sure James will think exactly like I do

Re: Do You Really (REALLY) Really Know James? (Week 17) About Last Night - ***1/2 Edward Zwick and David Mamet together sounds like a "can't miss" prospect to me
Transformers 2 - *1/2 This flick looks like it'll offer exactly the same stuff as the first one so I can't see James liking it anymore
The Mission - ***1/2 He's often referred to this as Roland Joffe's last great film

Re: Do You Really (REALLY) Really Know James? (Week 17) The game begins...and I have won the first round...and so did most everyone else. I think Transformers 2 will be the killing ground.
