Rounders

[trillig]

So many holes so little time, typical fluffed up fare....

But like others have said, if it was REAL, it would be rather bland, the 'direct to video' bland or 'the made for a 3rd rate network' bland, take your pick.

Now if Celebrity Poker Showdown would do a weekly ALL playmates/super model show, most of us here would watch that! Gotta play to the audience.... Shana Hiatt comes to mind...
Does she really bring much else, except eye candy to the WPT?
Let's see 15 mins of poker, 15 mins of Shana running around in a bikini at random intervals.... hmmmmmmmmm a recent report out said there are 4x as many hits on porn sites as all the major search engines combined.... I love random shocking report #'s!

Damn that beer kicked in, damn lightweight! Time to go sleep sleep now.

I will blush in advance for this.

I digress...

Rounders: C

To better understand my scale:

A=Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail
E=Vanilla Sky [worst movie for me in last 10 years, bar none]
E=Passage To India [just in case you thought VS was A fare]

I haven't seen Vanilla Sky but the original was good imo.

It's called Abre los Ojos (open your eyes). I think they may be virtually identical but I found the original to be quite good.

They are virtually identical...and both were great.

I think the word you are looking for is cojones. Ask you Spanish teacher.

Myself and the other 3 people I was with for the Cruise version of VS, we all hated it...

Not our collective cup of tea, now Passage To India had good scenery and the guy asleep and snoring 10 rows ahead of us when I saw it in the theatre was the movie highlight, we laughed our collective behinds off, he let out a loud snore about every 2 mins and that was one long flick for it's day.

I think you could get captured militants to talk if you put them through VS/PTI marathons every waking hour.

DOES that break Geneva Convention rules? LOL!

Either that or perhaps Barry Manilow/Celine Dion Marathons.

???? He convinced a couple of Hawaiian shamans to play high-stakes poker???

Was that like in "deleted scenes" on the DVD???

Great post. A literal LOL. I thought Dynasty's Moneymaker post would win the title for best intentionally funny post of the month but you just surged into the lead.

The movie is totally wrong.

No way in hell Damon would have kicked out Famke. She would have done it anyway she could take it.

Movies are so unrealistic.

Yeah. That was less believable than the poker.
