Jurassic Park

<HTML>Now I feel I know you lot well enough to present my theory regarding the actor, Sam Neill.

You can tell what kind of character Sam Neill is playing simply by looking at his hairstyle.

You may mock (feel free, everyone else does), but it's true!

Jurassic Park. Mr Neill=goodie, hair floppy forwards
Event Horizon. Starts good (floppy forwards), ends bad, hair slicked back.
Sirens, hair forward, goodie

etc
etc</HTML>

<HTML>You may have hit on something there, Dave.

Dr Zhivago - hair slicked back AND very dodgy facial hair.</HTML>

<HTML>I haven't seen the film because a kind friend warned me off it, but I did read the original Asimov story and I thought it was _very_ good. One of his most memorable.</HTML>

<HTML>Yes, Asimov was always better at short stories, unlike Foundation and zzzzzz....</HTML>

<HTML>not seen the film or read the book. Have heard it's pretty dire (film), but do like Asimov's stuff, so may read the book.

Has anyone told Robin Williams that you can get <i>too</> sickly sweet?</HTML>

<HTML>I've heard 'One Hour Photo' and 'Insomnia' are very good. Looks like someone may have had a quiet word....</HTML>

<HTML>Have you seen "Insomnia"? then don't... not worth the bother... dull and full of inconsistencies...

I didn't even try "One Hour Photo" I heard really bad things about it</HTML>
