Why isn't Ursula The Sea Witch In The Little Mermaid Ariel's Beginning?
They didn’t want her in it, it’s that simple I guess. Plus if she had an interaction with Ariel at some point in Ariel’s life before the film The Little Mermaid (original) , Ariel would have been less likely to trust her in that film. So they had Marina as a villain instead.

It appears that you enjoy well-acted movies about people with major character flaws that need to be explored and dealt with. That said, I liked the movie called Normal (2003) starring Jessica Lange, Tom Wilkinson, and Hayden Panettiere so much that I bought a copy of it. http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0338290/
Too, most of your movies listed above have male leads. But there are a couple with sole female leads that I could recommend. One is Frozen River (2008) starring Melissa Leo and the other is Julia (2008) starring Tilda Swinton.

What are some words that you would use to describe a Sirens voice?
Sirens: Gorgeous creatures that take the form of women with the most beautiful singing voice that you could ever imagine. They enchant men at sea and lure them into the water where they leave them to drown. If a mann can resist her it is said that the Siren must jump into the sea and drown herself.
Okay, that was just a quick background on Sirens, in case you didn’t know what they were. I’m writing a novel and Sirens sort of play a theme in it. I need help describing their voices. I need words to help describe the sound of their singing and I am running out of ideas. I am not asking you to write the novel for me, I am simply asking for some descriptive words and maybe a few sentences here and there if you want to be really helpful.
anyway, here’s a link to a song from Sibad: Legend of the Seven Seas that is pretty much what sirens sound like. This is pretty much how I pictured them singing (and I’m not stealing from Sinbad, jeez)

thanks a lot!
Honeyed voices, enchanting tones, spell-binding, captivating.
Honestly, though, I think it would be far more effective to describe the reactions of the people listening (following the rule of show-not-tell). Describe how they lose consciousness of their movements and approach the singers without noticing, maybe start crying with the beauty of the song, etc.

What do you guys think will happen to Batman after the end of The Dark Knight?
Okay, so I watched this movie and at the end when Batman and Gordon agreed they would blame the murders that Dent committed on Batman I wondered what he was going to do after that. I mean I understand why they blamed the murders on Batman but will Bruce Wayne contiune to save Gotham even though people will see him as a killer or is he going to quit being Batman all together? What do you guys think?
I’m pretty sure Bruce Wayne will always be Batman because it’s his destiny to save people.Oh, and they have to make some more movies.
switters | Aug 06, 2009
Well, that’s what the next movie will be about. Probably Batman will be a hated outlaw but still fight crime in the shadows. Then some new villains will come into the picture.
Dog | Aug 06, 2009
Well, Batman’s always been the "misunderstood hero", so he’ll probably go on "hero"-ing as he’s always done.
Michael | Aug 06, 2009
He will probably go underground or leave the country.
