  1. Just Like Heaven -- Movie
    Despite the talent involved, Just Like Heaven is just too cloying to distinguish itself from its contemporaries. With such a talented cast, director Mark Walters (Freaky Friday) could, and should, have kept the movie's humor smart and subtle. Instead he employs tired gags, such as when Elizabeth inhabits David's body and forces him to spastically fight with himself. Then there are several times when David is talking to Elizabeth but is observed by others to be talking to himself. This is humor on par with a middling sitcom, and it only serves to undercut the dramatic heft of the movie.
  2. Turn It Up
    An emotionally charged film, "Turn It Up" is a contemporary drama about urban life and the importance of following your dreams. The film teams international hip hop star Prakazrel "Pras" Michel (Mystery Men), with the exciting new rapper Ja-Rule in his feature film debut. The film is written and directed by Robert Adetuyi, a screenwriter making his feature film directorial debut.
  3. Pick Up Lines -- Pick-Up Lines
    Pick-up lines probably aren't the greatest way to meet your future life partner, but if you're falling flat in the romance department, the right line may produce surprising results. If you're running out of brilliant lines to use on your potential victims, uh mates, try inventing some of your own. But first, check out some of the tried and true lines for inspiration.
  4. Bringing Up Baby -- Cary Grant
    Bringing Up Baby enjoys frequently revived popularity today due to its breakneck pace, superb comic timing, humorous swipes at sex roles, and partnering of Hepburn and Grant. But when the film was initially released in 1938, it met harsh criticism and indifferent audiences. Hepburn, who headed the Independent Theatre Owners Association list of "box-office poison" movie stars, grated on the critics' nerves. In addition to Hepburn's seeming unpopularity, a critical disdain for what the New York Times reviewer called a "zany-ridden product of the goofy farce school" may have contributed to the film's lack of success. However, in 1962, Sight and Sound critic Peter Dyer attested to the reversal in status and popularity of Bringing Up Baby: "The durability of Hawks's films lies in the way that they have a mysterious life of their own going on under the familiar, facile surfaces. It is the constant cross-graining of cliché and inventive detail which produces the shock of pleasure his best work provides."
  5. Irs Audit -- People
    A visit from the IRS in the way of an IRS audit has got to be about the most frightening thing that can happen to most Americans. Whether you are considering IRS fraud or not, the Bureau of Internal Revenue has great power in the United States. Evasion of taxes, IRS fraud, and other crimes are all handled very seriously and when IRS fraud is discovered either by an audit or by non-filing, high fines and even prison can be expected. In recent years the number of IRS audits has actually come down and they conduct an audit in about 1 of every 200 people. And then 1 in 5 of those get out without having to pay a dime. But for the other unlucky 4 in 5 that get fined, the IRS can be very severe, so the general public is justified in being apprehensive.
  6. Antonio Banderas -- Real Madrid
    The name Antonio Banderas has become synonymous with steamy sex appeal, as housewives across America continue to dream about their favorite Latin Lover. Unsurprisingly (Penélope Cruz has the same problem), the latter term is a media creation, as Banderas is actually Spanish – born August 10, 1960 in Málaga, Andalucía, Spain. Banderas grew up dreaming of football (the European variety), but despite his talents a leg injury at age 14 dashed his hopes. When he moved to Madrid after school it was for the burgeoning Spanish film industry, not the vaunted Real Madrid, which remains his favorite sports team.
  7. Saruman -- Blue Wizards
    Saruman grudgingly brought with him Radagast as a companion from Valinor, at the request of Yavanna, yet still managed to arrive alone, and first. Shortly after, he went into the East with the two Blue Wizards (Alatar and Pallando), and later returned alone. The Ithryn Luin (as the Elves called them) went with Saruman into the East, and there may have wrought many great works to diminish the influence of the Enemy. Of their fate little is known.
  8. Dottie Pepper -- Americans
    In years gone by, a certain Dottie Pepper did everything to destroy the spirit that this event enjoys, and she came up trumps again at Halmstad. Feisty by nature is doing her a favour, add to that loud, abrasive and aggressive, and your picture is clearer. On a couple of missed American putts, thinking her microphone was off, she said of her countrywomen, "chokin' freakin' dogs". Charming, but coming from her, not all that surprising.
  9. Ahmed Shah Massoud -- Pakistan
    Ahmed picks up wire transfers, then flies from Dubai to Pakistan. Just before 8 a.m., Atta calls Al-Shehhi from Flight 11 as it sits on a runway. Al-Shehhi is on Flight 175. They confirm the plot is on.
