Of the ones you haven't seen her in yet, which ones would you like to watch?

She lives in the clouds and talks to the birds...

Happiest faerie of VGF.

...'Vanilla Sky' is the only one, I think. Guess it wins by default.

I don't remember anything about it, aside from it being loaded with sex. Oh my goodness. I would almost call it porn.

I think I've only seen 'Blow' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' while I'd be interested in 'Murder on the Orient Express' of the ones I haven't seen.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Vanilla Sky are the only ones I saw. Neither were particularly good, the previous PotC trilogy was much better, and Vanilla Sky mostly sucked aside from that interesting ending. It should have leaned into the sci-fi stuff more and earlier.

Among what I've not seen, Orient Express could be good. The rest don't sound very interesting.

That's funny, I remember a lot of it but not it featuring a gratuitous amount of sex.

Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong flick. Whatever. I'm not rewatching it. If the only parts I remember are the sex, and there isn't actually all that much sex, then it must be a flippin snooze-fest.

It's been a while since I've watched it so I could be wrong. I'm in no rush to rewatch it myself, even though I really like Matrix/Truman Show-esque kinda stuff.

Wow, the *only* thing I've ever seen her in is Home Movie: The Princess Bride.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
