Would it be possible for all of us to have the movie watched by Friday? If so we could all pick a couple scenes that we thought were important and then vote or something like that.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds really good to me! I couldn't find the full movie online (just in parts) so let me know if anyone finds it.
ReplyDeletep.s. I just found out Corey Haim died today from youtube.
ReplyDeleteDid any of you find the link for lost boys? You Tube does not seem to have all the parts. If any of you found the link could you please post it here. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI still have yet to find a complete version of it so how about whenever we watch it just post the scenes you think are important and once everyone has we can pick
ReplyDeletethat sounds good I am still looking for a copy. I might just have to buy it.
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble watching it. The internet at my hotel is too slow. You can watch it on surfthechannel.com just use the megavideo link.
ReplyDeleteYea I ended up just buying it and I am going to hopefully watch it tonight and then I will try and post my thoughts by thursday
ReplyDeleteDid everyone get a chance to watch the movie? Which parts do you think are important and can be presented in class? I think the part where the vampires go to mike's house to attack them can be used or the killing of the vampires when they are sleeping in their cave.
ReplyDeleteWhich scenes did you come up with. Discuss it here so that we can finalize a scene and start working on it.
hey guys im so sorry travelling has been horrible the past couple days.. im sitting down to watch it now so ill have some feedback in a little bit.
ReplyDeleteI thought the part where the vampires pretty much use "mind control" on the star and mikey at various points throughout the movie. Especially when the vampires are on the bridge and they convince mikey to jump is a good example.
ReplyDeleteEmily I agree about the scene on the bridge when they convince Mikey to jump. I also really liked the scene when they're at the fire and Mikey truly becomes a vampire. I think either of those would be good to use for the presentation.
ReplyDeleteI was not able to get the movie on line. Can I borrow from someone tomorrow? However, based on everyone elses comments I think the mind contol part is the way to go. It's an important part of the book and present in a lot of adaptations, but compleatly absent in others. I think it would make for a good presentation.
ReplyDeleteHey everyone! Just a reminder we are meeting up tonight at HSSE at stewart center, in the group room with the computers at 7:30, see you all there! Oh and Natalie can you bring my movie tonight too please, thanks!
ReplyDeleteDo we have everything set up on who is presenting what?
