Fever Pitch (2005)
Worst Movie Line Ever!
"All those things that you feel for that team. I feel them to, for you." Absolute garbage line said with zero emotion from Drew Barrymore! I have watched a lot of movies, a lot of bad movies. Some might say I have even acted in a bad movie or two...haha...But this is the worst line in any movie, ever!

WiseGirls (2002)
Unbelievable Acting from Mariah!
Wow! Who would have thought that a movie with Gwenyth Paltro or Mira Sorvino (whatever her name is!) in it would have been overshadowed by the powerful acting performance of Mariah Carey! Seeing Mira's nice ones hang out of her low cut black dress was definitely the low point in the film! The high point was most definitely brilliant acting from Mariah! How about the scene where the guy shoots his nose off, and Mariah's reaction to it. The scene called for someone to be shocked or horrified or disgusted that they had to plug up the nose holes on the man's blood soaked face - most actors certainly would have played it that way. But not Mariah! She had the foresight to giggle throughout such a dramatic scene.
And of course the shoot-out between the wise guys and the feds is classic. So true to life! I mean, wise guys lawyers can never get them off from such serious legal charges. So of course a shoot-out with a much better armed fed/swat forces was the best course of action! Bravo story writer! All in all, one of the best films I have seen in recent years. Absolutely stunning acting from Mariah and a very believable story and ending adds to this great masterpiece. All involved should be truly proud! Mira -you should wear dresses like that more often!
Moyuru Toki: The Excellent Company (2006)
Moyuru Toki: The Excellent Company
Moyuru Toki: The Excellent Company is a Japanese movie about the Sansun company and their successful marketing of their Ramen Cup of Noodle product in America. The movie is set in the 1980's when Sansun was competing with other American brands for a share of the American market for ramen noodles. The movie tells the story of how Sansun overcame competition, an attempted hostile takeover from an American company, and a corrupt labor union to become one of Japan's most successful companies operating in America in the 1980's.
The movie was filmed mostly in Australia (though some scenes were shot in Roppongi and Los Angeles) and features many Australian actors. Even yours truly had a small acting role in the movie! I play the part of "Emilio" (you can see me in the "bar scene")!
FYI, the DVD is now available for purchase on Amazon Japan. The DVD release date was July 14th, 2006.
