    ^I adored Hannibal. I mean, I really like The Silence Of The Lambs, and went to see this on the back of it - but for me it eclipsed the first one. I think it critically suffered because it wasn't the first - thematically or stylistically (unlike the later film Red Dragon which is more akin, of course that book preceded Silence and the two are far more similar story-wise). It's supposed to be different though, it's got a far more comical tack - it's pure Grand Guignol and everybody's in on it. The scenery and settings (particularly Florence) are sumptuous, and the score far more bravura befitting the action. Also, I much prefer Julianne Moore. Jodie Foster can be a little "affected" as an actress, like you can see her doing it - if that makes any sense - although you appreciate that she's doing it well. Anthony Hopkins is given more to do though, and 'Lecter' is the almost the principal over 'Starling'. Add in opera, Gary Oldman and some pigs and I'm happy!

  13. Style (Singapore) November '12, by Wee Khim:
  14. ^But I am back - I've not posted in here for while and, like I stated, haters gon hate! I don't know about Candice, but you were right, I was being "stupid". I can see you didn't appreciate that effort then... I only marginally dislike Adriana Lima and (and I can't speak for other people) that is to do with her 'gurning' and purely on a professional level. I do, however, hate being told who and what to like and the propensity members here have for doing that in regards to her; these are not mutually exclusive... Honestly, "she's back" and "this is her year" have to be the two most groan-inducing comments one has to wade through come every VSFS. As for the "pretentiousness" - yes, I've always fully embraced that here. I find it raises the standard above the inconsequential chatter and prattle of dreamss the hoi polloi!
  15. ^What? Adriana's "back"? Again? She's "back" more often than a f**king boomerang. The only reason "haters gon hate (sic)" is due to inane comments like this. Being "back" implies that she was gone for at least 1 bloody minute which users of this forum will be aware doesn't ever happen. Professionally, sure, she had a baby and has returned to her job. So has Lily (she's back!), so did Alessandra (she's back!), so did Miranda last year (she was back!), so did Adriana before (she's back twice!), so did Heidi (back back back!). Candice went outside for some fresh air but has reentered the room again (she's back!). I've not posted on here for a few pages (I'm back!), and haters gon hate...
  16. + Backstage, via modelsoffduty.com (although that's not strictly true I guess, since she's getting ready for the VSFS!):

  19. ^Mahi, I'm not sure if I understand you correctly(?) but you can always PM me about them. With regards to the Next pictures I always group and list them in the terms the site uses - so "search" works! These 'Bookemdanno' pictures are just going to keep on coming aren't they? I heartily approve. (Y)
