The Kill is BRILLIANT. Have you seen the acoustic version...? So cool how they used the violins...

Disarm, please let us know what you think of Mr. Nobody! *Signing this petition* It's sometimes pretty much useless to read critics reviews if you don't know what kind of films they like in general. I too would like to read a review(without spoilers) from someone who has at least some similar interests(Cillian's films) as I do, so I would know what to expect from the film. If you would please be kind enough to write to Last film you saw and rate it-thread or this thread after watching it, I would appreciate it. |

I wish I lived near you guys so you could all borrow my Mr.Nobody movie  This had me thinking for days. Every choice I made....almost made me paranoid. Jared was awesome like always! Toby Regbo is a cutie patootie, and great actor too. This was the first movie I've seen of his....wait i lied, heard he was in Harry Potter, but I don't remember him playing young Dumbledore. Hopefully there will be more of his work to watch in the future. This is kinda a longer movie, and talks about some science stuff like quantum physics/string theory and butterfly effect, which I really enjoyed. like I said before, this movie made me think deeply about (ALL) choices I made in my past, so I found myself during the movie, drifting off to another world for split second, but that's when the cinematography comes into play. It's compelling, and beautiful. I give this a 9/10 |

Thanks for your kindness(will reward you for it tomorrow when I can). I was having trouble deciding whether to buy or rent it. I think I'll have to buy it. Sounds like a movie I'll want to see more than once. The ones that make you think are always worth paying for. Wish I had it already... |

you know I'm starting to get nervous. Been wondering, other than Cillian movies, maybe I have totally different taste. Like I said before  ....please don't hurt me if you guys aren't happy with the movie. Please let me know what you think of it. |

Oh, I wouldn't hold it against you if I'm disappointed, disarm - I have been aware of Mr. Nobody for months, and was interested in it waaaayyyy back. I've just been waiting to see if Netflix will grab it, which doesn't look like it's going to happen. So I would have bought a copy anyway! But I can't wait to watch it and discuss it here! Makes it even more fun! |

Oh, don't be nervous, Disarm! I have taken into consideration that people may feel differently about things no matter how many interests they have in common. I didn't mean to make you feel in any way responsible for my decision to buy it. Sorry . I was already about 75% sure I will. Then I read your post, and another review of the score by Pierre Van Dormael. They were just the final push . I bought mine on friday, but my boyfriend doesn't want me to watch it without him, and he's been busy working. I'll watch it as soon as possible. |

After 6 long years of waiting, I finally have the opportunity to see the man on stage. 30STM is doing this French Tour in November, and the second I heard the tickets were on sale I rushed to the mall to buy one. We were like 15 people waiting there at 7 am, it was really funny because they are not that famous in France. We were all so affraid the tickets would be sold out within the hour, we were there three hours before it opened xD So many, many times I wanted to see them, because I'm a huge fan since their first album, but their concerts were always in Paris or in other countries (I live near Marseille, in southern France, by the sea) and I couldn't afford the ticket alone. Everytime it was the same: the tickets were all sold out within the day, and the people who bought them were selling them ten times their price. 250€ for the ticket alone, the train and the hotel costs were yet to be calculated. There was just no way I could go there. I don't really like to talk about that but I have kind of a... Strong link to this band. I hope I'm not bothering you with this, if you don't care don't waste your time reading. It is a sad and long story, but I feel like I must talk about it. I met a girl 5 years ago. She was one year older than me, and a big fan of 30STM. We often talked about them, we got closer and closer, a year later she was like my big sister, or my mother. We got along so well I had the feeling I've always known her, you know? I trully loved her, with all my heart, I admired her, she was so protective to me, in a good way. I felt safe with her. Sadly, she was diagnosed with an ovary cancer three years ago. I was always there for her, I can't count the nights I spent hidden in her hospital room, in the bathroom, so that the nurse won't ask me to leave. I spent half this year holding her hand, cheering her up, trying to give her the strenght she lacked to fight her cancer. She told me she wanted us both to go and see Jared on stage, to scream his name and his brother's, to sing the songs with him. She wanted to use her own money savings to buy us the tickets, the train to Paris, she said we could sleep in the train station. Honestly, with her by my side, I could have walked all the way to Paris. I mean it. It's like 600km (370 miles), but I didn't care. For all I know, we could have moved to the moon if we wanted it. For a long year, she fought. She said the day her chemo would be over, she would take me there and tell Jared about her story. I've never felt so much hope in my whole life. But one night, she was in her room, lying on her bed, she said she was too tired. She was under strong medication for days, not completely herself, always absent-minded, always tired, her eyes were not the same. I said she would be alright, like I always did, I said she had to keep fighting for her life, for me. And she gave me that look, that very look she gave me when we first met. Full of joy, energy, full of life. I couldn't stay for the night because I had to work the day after, so I gave her a hug and waved her goodbye. She said she loved me, and I left. The day after that, I gave her a phonecall to see how she was doing. Her mother answered me she had died a few minutes after I left. I won't tell you about how I felt at this moment, I'm sure it's pretty obvious. For a very, very long year I stayed home, I didn't go to school, spent whole days playing the guitar and wondering about life. Then, quite miraculously I must say, I got my graduation and started to think that maybe I should move on. It is still a bit painful to think about her, and you can't imagine the impact 30 Seconds to Mars has on me. But for the first time of my life I'll be able to see them, to sing with them, in my own city. And I can swear to you that the name I'll be screaming in the croud won't be Jared's. It'll be hers. Camille. Sorry for the very, very long post. I felt I had to say all this. I don't really believe in God or in life after death (but I respect all kinds of beliefs). I believe that what makes you live on after you die is people talking about you, remembering you, meeting you through the eyes of a person who knew you. So by talking about her here, I feel like I'm making her a bit more immortal. I'm really sorry if this is judged improper or misplaced and I will remove this post if anyone thinks it's not where it's supposed to be. But Jared Leto will always be linked to Camille in my mind, so I felt like this was the best way to express what I think about him. |

What a moving, sad story, Jinx.... I have almost tears in my eyes... Thanks for being so open hearted to share it with us.
I don't know what else to say 'cause I fear it will only sound dull or silly or cheesy. But I just want you to know that your story really touched my heart.

Jinx, there is no way I would move or touch this beautiful post of yours. What a touching tribute to your Camille and, yes, to Jared as well. I think that is a big part of what makes being a fan of someone so special - that it's shared with people we are very close with. And I completely understand that link you refer to - I can identify very well with this, because my interest in Cillian has brought me close to some very special people in my life. It's PART of our friendship. If I never spoke to them again, I wouldn't be able to see Jackson Rippner without thinking of them. I'm not making light of your lovely words; it's my clumsy attempt at saying that I understand how you feel, and that I am so sorry for your loss... and that I completely get why you will be screaming her name at that show.  And yes.... you have made her immortal. |
