Palatkik Posted January 6, 2003 Report Share Posted January 6, 2003 Maybe it's just because I've blown my money sitting through Mr Deeds but 2002 especially the last 6 months, seemed like the worst period ever for imported films. Granted the Thai movie biz is taking off right now, but I've had my fill of katoeys on film for a while. Perhaps the pre Oscar season may show a revival?

shotover Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 It seems the blockbuster films, like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, seem to dominate the screens, not leaving many theatres for other films.

markle Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 With young Leonardo? You bet, it's already getting promotion here. As for mainstream Hollywood well I can't reall comment I was doing a class on the best movies last year and I realise I'd hardly seen any of them.

Palatkik Posted January 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 >Will Gangs of New York be shown in Thailand? From todays BKK Post: Though not yet in the same league as Cannes or Hollywood, Bangkok has nevertheless a golden opportunity to brush up its image as a cultural centre with this month's 5th Bangkok International Film Festival. The line-up is impressive indeed, with a marvellous mixture of more than 120 movies from Australia, Finland, France, India, Israel, the Philippines, Poland, Spain, Thailand and the USA, amongst other countries. It will also feature first-time screenings here in Thailand of two major Hollywood blockbusters, Quiet American and Martin Scorsese's long-awaited Gangs of New York. If only half the big names from the movie world expected to turn up actually make it, then the festival will still be a success.
