The Odyssey

[Cindy Rosmus]

Do you guys love that movie as much as me?

Do you LIVE for the few minutes we get to see Mr. Lee as Teiresias, the blind, dead prophet? I'm lucky. Every time it's on TV, no matter how much of the four hours I miss, I always seem to catch those few minutes with Mr. Lee in action.

I'm lucky in another respect. My cousin, Chris Solimine, co-wrote the screenplay with the director, Andrei Konchalovsky! My cousin once had a 1 & 1/2 hour phone conversation with Mr. Lee himself! I almost cried when he told me, two weeks ago. He said, "Why didn't you tell me back THEN you were such a big Christopher Lee fan?"

I STILL want to cry!

Her cousin is a lucky person, Cindy.
I never watched the film in subject, but with the whole certainty Mr. Lee should be shining in him. As always.
There are films that for itself are not so good and I say one of them (Jocks). That is safe for Mr. Lee's presence. The only good thing of the film is the presence of our idol, that works in a funny way to.

Well, that's the thing. Take Star Wars for example. Mr. Lee and all the actors were brilliant but George Lucas totally screwed it up. So many plotholes and man, the mushy scenes of Anakin and Padmé :barf:

About the plotholes:
I mean, isn't it a bit obvious Palps was the Sith Lord? I mean, come on, he's in power and whoops some Jedi arse every time more a little bit and then the fact that Windu said in movie II or III that he was surrounded by a dark aura.

Then the fight between Anakin and Count Dooku. I mean, really, the fight takes place 3 years after Geonosis and suddenly he gets his arse whooped by a punky emo freak?
Riiight

Pardon my ranting...man that felt good
