Simply a thread about the actress.  She has been, for nearly a decade, the background for every computer I use.



(Normally it is 800 by 600, so I can arrange my icons in the unused space around the image).

All in all, she often does a very good job at what she is added to a film to do:  look attractive and be a butt-kicking fighter.  She might well be the modern equivalent of women like Raquel Welch in "One Million Years B.C." or Mara Corday in "The Giant Claw."  In fact, I will go so far as to say that a number of b-movies are enjoyable, because she is not just a pretty face, but does bring a presence to a film.  It might, funny enough, often be the same presence every time.

Let's not mention "The Messenger" though, because in that film she was way out of her element.  It was like watching a fish flop around on the deck of a boat.

Him


BeyondTheGrave

I remember her in a indie movie callled "Dummy"with Adrien Brody where she was a foul mouthed rocker named Fangora. The whole reason I watched it was because of her. Its like everytime I see her in a movie I go into a trance and can't change the channel.
Most of all I hate dancing then work,exercise,people,stupidpeople

But she has no chest.

I agree.

Although I do like a chest on a woman...Milla has something about her that I can overlook it and really, don't even notice it. Her and Kate Beckinsale...I'll watch a movie just because of them.

She does okay in genre flicks, I liked Ultraviolet more than Aeon Flux mostly because of her, but not a huge fan.

Small chests are no a reason to discount an actress, even in films like these, and again she looked good in Ultraviolet, but not a favorite even from a looks standpoint. I remember laughing when a friend, who is black for what it's worth, mocked her character for being deemed "perfect" in The Fifth Element. The terms "bony-assed" and "stringy-haired" got thrown around a lot.

I'll mention The Messenger, but only to beg the local CW station to quit showing the damn thing! Not her fault or anything, but what a lousy movie that deserves to be forgotten.

She is a hottie in her own way, a bit on the thin side for me. She could stand to have a few more pounds on here bones. But that's just my taste, guess I'm more of a Raquel Welch type of guy, whom I use as wallpaper on an off. Guess I'm ol' school.
Milla could try to make some better movies, I think. When an actor/actress makes one fairly lame movie after another you have to start thinking is it the agents choice in films or is it the actor acting? She's made a few decent films where she was a main player, but nothing like the The Fifth Element, which was awesome.

I really liked her in Resident Evil, she had a very cool presence in that movie.  It also has my favorite commentary track of all time, Milla sounded like she may have been drinking a wee little bit when doing it.  She starts doing an impression of that "You're all going to die down here" line that absolutely cracked me up.

I am not certain I would change her body style.  One of the reasons for her allure must be her as a whole.  Increasing her breasts or hips (or whatever floats your boat) might throw a monkey wrench into the mix.

Raquel Welch and that sort of body is a work of art that is easy to appreciate.  Anna Falchi, the main female in Cemetery Man, is another one I am known to drool over.

That's the "let's see him burn in his own farts" smilie, Menard  :teddyr:

About Milla, she rocks. But still, I'd prefer to see her in better movies than in stuff like "Resident Evil II" or "Ultraviolet". From what I've seen in "The fifth element" and "No good deed", she deserves it on her own right. Of course, she must be enjoying making millions.
Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

I always thought that Milla looked her best in Dazed & Confused.

I like Milla a whole lot, but my dream woman has always been Uma Thurman.

She was quite a vision as Venus in "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen."
