1549 Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 I just watched The Ring and I didn't quite understand the ending, my dad was on the phone while I was watching the ending and couldn't hear the dialouge...I want to know the chronology of the little girls life, she was in a mental institution, and she was in a well? Also I want to know why the mom and the kid were duping the tape at the end, I didn't hear anything that was said during that part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDF Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 I just watched The Ring and I didn't quite understand the ending, my dad was on the phone while I was watching the ending and couldn't hear the dialouge...I want to know the chronology of the little girls life, she was in a mental institution, and she was in a well? Also I want to know why the mom and the kid were duping the tape at the end, I didn't hear anything that was said during that part i had a hard time trying to figure out that movie. very confusing and yet it was scary. my take on it was that all the haunted girl wanted was to let everyone know what happen. by making the tapes she was doing that. if someone saw that film and don't get out the msg, they will die so as long as she made the tapes, her son will live. what i don't understand why the drama about her be uncovered? now i think it was a nice twist to a scary movie and i like it how she killed. it was nice.

cwsox Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Psycho, saw the previews for Identity on Friday and it looks awesome - as far as scary goes. I want to see it myself. I hope it is as good as the previews! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Ring was pretty good. Basically the girl wanted everyone to know. Its been a while since I saw it, but I had it figured out or at least I thought I did after I watched it. One scary part was when they pan to the girl and all of a sudden she is like dead and the head falls back. That got me to jump. No Scary Movie has ever got to me, well one did but it was when I was like 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonWeltall Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 The little girl was crazy. After she got tossed in the well, she was alive -and pissed off- for 7 days. Copying the tape is the only way to avoid getting smoked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got a lifetime pass should you ever be able to use it. How's the boys baseball comiing along, I just had the first three practices with the team I coach, maybe we'll meet up in the little league world series. I think I'm even gonna come out of retirement and play in the 19-21 league again, work off some of the beer on the diamond, then drink more afterwards what a plan.

BrandoFan Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 American ripoff was quite boring and pedestrian with the exception of the shot of the dead teenager in the beginning that comes out of nowhere and the last 2 minutes... the Japanese original, Ringu, is much scarier even though it's budget is like 10 times smaller. It's the highest grossing Jap. movie of all time and it has a sequel which is lamer but explains quite a few things like how Samara was able to kill her victims. If you are a fan of Chinese thrillers, you can't do better than "Audition" (Odishon). It's starts out as almost a romantic comedy and then descends into...well, let's just say it's got 2-3 moments in it that you will remember forever.

cwsox Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 been home very sick today with a horrendous sinus infecton, one of the more painful knock out ones that I have ever had. If anyone IMed me today and got no response, sorry - I was probably laying on the futon groaning and moaning in agony when you IMed. I also watched the Ring - might as well see a dvd when the pain is too bad to do anything elese. The plot sucked from beginning to end. Anyone care to speculate on the odds of 4 high school students from one school being dying all of the same day and no one notices? Or how did our little girl (who "died" in the 60s) become so VCR savvy? Who put the video cassette in the cabin? Does everyone leave a dead man in a bathtub without calling the police? How did this cabin get built over the well? These are only the highpoints of plot inconsistencies. And at the end - if you know that making copies kills others but burning all the copies means you die but no one else dies... well, sometimes you bite the bullet rather then sentence others to heinous deaths. So I was very unhappy with the film. Also say Igby Goes Down, which I loved in all my agony - many delightful scenes, such as our hero selling drugs to his former art teacher. Saw Drumline - really got into the probably preductable plot but so well done, it was fun despite my being in agony and pain, and the Secretary which is meant for a more, shall we say, mature art film - cinema fan type movie viewer who enjoys excursions into s&m. You know I am hurting when I rent four dvds and lay on the futon popping pain pills and antibiotics hour and hour becauise it hurts to stand, hurts to sit, hurts to thinnk, hurts to do anything. I just walked out of the office this morning and said f***, I can't do this today. It is nice the dvd store is 100 feet from my apartment. Maybe tomorrow I will still be recovering at home or maybe back to work (damn it maybe) but tomorrow I might feel well enough to respond to the IMs that I got today that I didn't know that I got until I checked the computer much later because it was hurting too much to even sit up straight most of the day. And the Ring sucks. Avoid it if you possibly can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
