I'd never seen it! Probably because it was 4 hours long and at 12 I would never have made it through without causing a ruckus in the theater and embarassing my folks, lol. <BR/><BR/>Anyhoo - holy cow, what a historical piece of crap that was AND the costumes??? Take early sixties fashion and hairstyles and try to make them look Egyptian - since when did the Egyptians have gold lame??? <BR/><BR/>I was laughing near the end and then I was getting ticked off. Burton's portrayal of Marc Antony turned this historical figure into an alcoholic poor-me schlub. Okay, it's said Antony did have a fondness for wine, women and song and his fondness for Cleopatra was so hormonal, but schlubs with a poor me attitude did not make it to the rank of General in Ancient Rome, let alone to co-ruling the Second Triumvirate. Okay, I've vented about the LaLaLand Cleopatra.<BR/><BR/>I think Postman failed largly due to Kevin Costner's rapidly receding hair line - though being a bad film didn't help, lol.<BR/><BR/>Now, when you mention "Dave" - be carefu - LOL, "Meet Dave" with Eddie was a dud but "Dave" with Kevin Klein is one of my favorite films to watch over and over and over!!!<BR/><BR/>I think you should add Solaris - costs: $47,000,000 gross: $14,970,038 -even George Clooney couldn't save that one!<BR/><BR/>Happy TT to you Ms. Pjazzypar - and sending you some ointment to sooth your bruises from the great blog bully!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9045071721348918138.post-74499919525199382272008-09-04T11:18:00.000-05:002008-09-04T11:18:00.000-05:00remember we walked out of the theater about a half...remember we walked out of the theater about a half hour into Howard the Duck.

I thought it starred John Neville, directed by Python Gilliam.<BR/><BR/>I saw Town and Country and was not much impressed, but I don't see how it could have cost that much.
