If Kelly Taylor decided to publish a tell-all book about her life in Beverly Hills, what would you imagine she'd write?

About Brenda:

> I knew it was wrong to kiss Dylan because he was my best friend's boyfriend but I knew Dylan first and we had a connection. He was my destiny and I had to fight for it. Brenda tried to separate us but our love could never go away.

On Valerie:

>I didn't trust Valerie. Too many lies. I caught her smoking pot and I'm completely against drugs so I hac my eye on her. She proved me right by trying to steal my boyfriend and caused us so much pain.I forgave her but I will never forget.

On Donna:

>My sister, my mother, my best friend. We've been close friends for our entire lives. Even though David had a crush on me first before our parents married, I'm proud that through me he and Donna got together and got married. I never liked Ray or Noah. Joe was cute. And Donna is a fabulous designer, she's always asking me to pose for new fashion spreads to promote her label.

On Claire:

> I tolerated her because Donna liked her. Claire never forgave me for being with Brandon, even if she never admitted it. I knew. She would make a passive-aggressive comment directed at me and I'd ignore it. For our peace of mind. I chose to blow it off and ignore her, I never liked what she wore anyway. And when she left, I was happy. Steve is so much happier with Janet. And me and Janet often DM each other.

On Allison and Tara:

>I don't understand why Lesbians always had a thing for me.I was clueless about that when I was in college. Now I'm much more open minded about that stuff.Would I ever sleep with a woman?Oh no, I love men. Maybe Valerie, she's from Minnesota.

Robin Shou from the Mortal Kombat films had the makings of a major star and after the films came out, he disappeared from the scene. What happened?

What stood out from the Mortal Kombat films from the 90s was how exceptional and capable of a lead Robin Shou as Liu Kang was. Ev en in the crappy sequel, Robin Shou shined. As bad as the girl playing Jade was, Robin Shou never strayed from being committed.

I was genuinely disappointed nobody found a market for Robin Shou as a martial arts film star, He disappeared. What happened?

Seriously, the Hallowen producers found the perfect substitute for Jamie Lee Curtis in Ellie Cornell and they botched it.

I will never understand how, after the promising reception Halloween 4 got, they decided to tarnish any good will they got. Anyone who's seen Halloween V will know what I mean.

Which woman do you think Michael was genuinely in love with?

I think Jane was the love of his life. I don't believe any other woman could measure up to Jane. If Jane had wanted him back, I think he would have returned to her,

Kimberly gave Michael the emotional support he wanted from Jane. When Kimberly was stable, they got along well. But I don't think he loved her. I think they had more in common.

Sydney was just sex and he found her dumb and annoying. She was probably a great lay because he kept coming for more.

Megan was someone he aspired in a woman, she was kind and devoted to him bur probably too nice.

He respected Amanda but they ZERO in common. He was the Sydney to Amanda's Michael. Amanda appreciated the support he gave her when she was sick but he was intolerable.

Doesn't anyone find it weird Kelly slept with Brenda's brother and her ex?

I'm so disappointed Brenda was gone when Kelly and Brandon hooked up. If I was Brenda, I'd be weirded out. I mean, wasn't Brenda annoyed by Andrea admitting she liked Brandon?

Isn't it funny how it took for Tara to copy Kelly's haircut for Kelly to turn on Tara?

When Tara was acting crazy before, Kelly was like giving a pass and not minding the warnings from the other girls, but the minute Tara showed up with the same haircut, Kelly was acting like Tara murdered someone.

Women hate to be copied and I'm sure Kelly took pride in knowing nobody else looked like her.

I personally found it dull and silly. Dan Aykroyd and Jamie Lee Curtis came back just for extended cameos. No Macaulay Culkin for obvious reason.

Anna Chlumsky carries the movie as Vada and she's definitely the best part about the movir but none of the humor or charm from the first film is present in this one. Austin O'Brien is a forgettable romantic interest. Christine Ebersole screams a lot. The storyline of Vada trying to look for her mother's backstory doesn't feel solid enough to support an entire movie.

It would have made more sense for Van Damme to play Vega, anyway. When Street Fighter came out in the 90s,I was lucky enough to go on opening night.

I was disappointed, Ken and Ryu were the faces of the game and the film turned these characters into comic relief, side characters who were meant to be laughed at.

Van Damme was completely miscast as Guile. Kylie Minogue as Cammy was wrong and given how useless and thinly written Cammy was, was it even necessary to use the character?

Raul Julia as Bison stole the film. While he was visibly sick, he still chewed every scenery in sight, Ming Na was good as Chun Li, she got to shine and stand out. Andrew Bryniarski as Zangief was a howler, I always enjoy seeing Zangief depicted as a gentle giant.

Film was campy fun, hated Van Damme as Guile and the disrespect for Ken and Ryu. Whole plot had me going "What did I just see?".

How coolit is for the director of "Aliens" to praise "Resident Evil" when so much of Resident Evilis reminiscent of Aliens. Michelle Rodriguez is practically Vasquez.

And I do agree with Cameron.While Milla Jovovich pulls off the action girl role as Alice, for me,it's Michelle Rodriguez who carries Resident Evil. Rain has so much more depht and nuance. She gets infected and she's gradually realizing what she's becoming. One scene in particular stands out to me, when Rain is beating Zombies and we see her internal struggle, everything is dawning on her but she must keep on fighting.

I hate that Rain or Jill Valentine didn't become mainstays. The Resident Evil movie series were a showcase for Milla and her bodysuits.

I thought Jackie Earl Haley gave the best performance in the line-up. He played an extremely complicated character whom we're left uncomfortable by. One minute, we're at a loss with his character because he's being harassed by a vigilante yet we're instantly made aware he's a pervert when it's implied he abuses the Jane Addams' character. Can I also say Phyllis Sommerville was outstanding? I wish she had been nominated as well,

Alan Arkin was just doing the dirty grandpa shtick we've seen a million times and Eddie Murphy was in a crappy musical and what made his performance stand out was the singing. Dramatically,I found his character inert and underdeveloped.

I genuinely thought Annihilation was DTV,I couldn't fathom or accept a sequel for a popular and entertaining film could turn out as bad as it was.

Everything was rushed, a important and beloved character was killed off in the opening act, they recast Raiden and Sonya Blade. Everyone was competing on who gave the worst performance: whoever played Jade sounded like she took acting lessons in the Ali MacGraw Acting Institute, they fired the likable Bridgette Wilson for the Kathleen Kinmont wannabe, Sandra Hess. Jax was annoying, Kitana sounded sedated. James Remar was just unbearable as Raiden, at one point he goes through a Son Goku transformation and turns into Andrew Dice Clay. It's like, WTF. Musetta Vander as Sindel was iconic, though.If you're going to be bad, be iconic.

Nevertheless, Robin Shou is the sole actor who appears to be taking it seriously instead of going "Bai Ling". It's unfortunate he never became a major star because his Liu Kang delivered effective fight scenes and was charming. Some of the fight scenes are engaging. Sadly, the story sags, the production design comes off as cheap,any direction is nowhere to be seen.

By the end, I couldn't bear it. I still think the first film and the Kristanna Loken series were the best adaptation of the game.

Not saying Steve (Michael Fassbender) was wrong to be mad but what did he expect? Why not just walk away and call the cops? His girlfriend was clearly trying to tell him to let it go.

Did he really think the kids, who were clearly savages, were going to say sorry and give them back the Jeep? It's just insanity anbd foolish. THey were on their own, at night.

To be honest, I didn't like Eilis (Saoirse Ronan) because I found her deceptive. Had she had her way, she would have probably ditched the American husband for the rich, kind Jim (Downhall Gleeson).

I have some empathy because she was pressured by Tony (Emory Cohen) but she made her bed and just because everything was coming her way, doesn't mean it's okay for her to lie and play innocent in the whole messy affair,

By the end, I felt she accepted her fate and tried to see the positive but the minute Tony gets into an accident or gets sick and dies, she'll be running back to Ireland as the happy Widow,probablyhoping Jim never married.

I like Cate Blanchett in Carol but I don't think she was as good as Rooney Mara. Mara runs away with the movie in a very touching and subtle performance,

The funny thing is that a lot of critics said Spielberg made it more sentimental, cornier when, in truth, Kubrick was the one who wrote the sentimental stuff. Spielberg has said he's the one who made the story darker.

I was surprised by how sad the movie was. It just gets worse and worse as it went along and the only thing that made the lead survive his travails was the fact that he was so in denial about the people he loved. The mother he so dearly loved and wanted to return to was just a emotional user, she used him for comfort while her human son was in a coma. He became disposable but she wasn't even woman enough to terminate him. She pretty much abandoned David with the false hope she'd embrace him back.

In the end, all David had left was a lie. I wish the film had ended at the bottom of the ocean, though.

I guess I came into this movie expecting to cry and I did cry, because of Debra Winger as Emma and her complex relationship with her kids.

But, boy, did I hate Shirley MacLaine's Aurora. She was incredibly selfish and always put herself in first place. The "give her the shot" scene was touching, for sure, because you see Aurora is finally breaking down as her daughter is dying but the scene where Emma dies shocked me because Emma put her hand out for Aurora and Aurora turned away.

How can a mother see her dying child hoping for one last touch and decides to turn her back? That moment enraged me. Because again, Aurora put her needs first, She thought Emma going would have made it easier but as she realizes in the end, no, it doesn't. The pain is unbearable.

Aurora had the chance to have Emma die in her arms but she chose to turn away because it was too painful for her but felti instant guilt when she realized what she done.

I always felt the scene where Emma says goodbye to her boys and she tells her eldest she knows he loves her, even if he's not showing it, was also directed at Aurora. I think Emma knew Aurora loved her but was aware her mom was a flawed person.
