New Project: Sex and Breakfast - Page 11

Sonya · 01-10-2008, 01:09 PM

I think I recognized one brown top that she was wearing, but not sure where I'd seen her wear it before.

I also think they should have called the movie: "Sex, Breakfast and car", coz all they do is have sex, have breakfast and drive around in a car!!

I do however agree with everyone, Eliza is the best one (of course) in this movie, and Kuno is HOT... the other couple were boring.

Although I think the main aim of this movie is to present the "idea" of group sex and have people think about whether it is a good idea or a bad one, so the characters in this movie are not that deep. Therefore it wasn't a challenging role for Eliza as an actress. It was an easy character to play and didn't need much effort specially from a professional like ED.

Well I recognised the shorts from the Clerks 2 premier.

I have to agree although the film wasn't great it was a nice little story and I thought Eliza was great in it. Also I'm not exactly upset that there were a few

moments with her

**andrew r** · 01-10-2008, 03:23 PM

CVheers for the info guys. I'm really wanting to see it now.

Phil 4 Eliza · 01-10-2008, 04:00 PM

Downloaded it myself yesterday but haven't got round to burning it to a disc and watching yet. I'm not expecting much TBH but it's Eliza so it doesn't matter.

Sounds like Nobel Son is next on the lookout list whereas everything else could be a while yet........

Sonya · 01-10-2008, 06:35 PM

Oh yeah, now that I watched it for the second time I did notice the shorts. I guess I was too busy laughing the first time to see her afraid of a cockroach that I didn't notice what she was wearing.

Um, those - coughs - scenes were not as explicit or bad as I expected. I did like the shower scenes a lot better though. It was a lot hotter seeing her with Kuno than with Culkin.

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-10-2008, 07:15 PM

I dont think that this was a bad choice for her at all. She played a really different character to what we have seen before for sure. Not so much sass and attitude. I liked how she played Renee.

I personally was expecting the film to be a lot raunchier than what it was, it felt really watered down in some places and the music took over in a few scenes where I think it would have been better to listen to the characters (Not that they were saying much)

The bed scene where she is 'servicing' herself I am sure is the blue dress she wore to Jermaine Dupree's party and the brown top she wore to the seminar she wore to an event and the brown shorts are THE brown shorts and the shoes she is wearing with them I swear are the ones she was wearing in the article she did where she took the Boston people around LA. When she is at the markets with Max Factor in that yellow skirt.

Do I pay too much attention to her?

All this film has done is made me hungry for more new Eliza...I think with her upcoming films we are going to get to see her range and that is really exciting

Couldn't agree more. My overall impression is that she's really matured as an actress. This performance was far more subtle that anything I've seen her do before. Can't wait for Nobel Son and The Alphabet Killer now

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-11-2008, 07:29 AM

I think that Nobel Son will see an Eliza we are used to seeing for sure just a little crazier.

Foxtel has Tru Calling of a Friday night and I just watched bits and pieces of it and you can really see a difference. Her style, her voice, her looks...they were all different to her a few years ago.

Matured is right and if we get our wish we are in for a treat!

**andrew r** · 01-11-2008, 02:44 PM

Thanks for the info guys, I'm not too thrilled she snogs (do people still use that word? Boy I'm old!) Culkin, even if it is acting. And Tash you don't pay too much attention to her, you're just very observant!

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-12-2008, 01:53 AM

Andrew your version sounds much more sane!

Sadly she a Culkin do more than snog...I get the need for the scene but I think they ruined it with too much music for sure...I just looked at her and ignored the fact he was some where in the shot!

**andrew r** · 01-12-2008, 04:12 PM

Thanks Tash! I guess you could imagine yourself in the place of Culkin....

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-12-2008, 06:47 PM

I would but it didnt look like she was enjoying herself at all so I just kinda uncomfortably sat through it til the end

**andrew r** · 01-13-2008, 03:23 PM

I'm sure we could have done something about that...

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-13-2008, 07:23 PM

Oh I am sure if it was me there would have been enjoyment and this just went to a place that maybe it shouldnt have!

Nobel_Son · 01-14-2008, 02:26 AM

I enjoyed the film, Eliza was the best part of it, but I absolutely HATED the ending. It almost ruined the entire thing for me. It just ends...without a proper ending!

Interesting information, though: Eliza is now #58 on IMDB's Celebrity Top Stars and Sex and Breakfast is at a stunning #11 on the Movie Meter.

#11. I have NO idea why it jumped more than 12,000%.

Tash the Vampire Slayer · 01-14-2008, 03:15 AM

I hated the ending as well. I thought Ellis was a total tool to her at some parts.

I honestly felt awkward throughout the entire film unless she was on screen...then I just felt awkward on her behalf.

I get the message of the film but still think more could have been done with Eliza rather than Culkin

It should be the other way around !

M@tt · 01-14-2008, 08:22 AM

I watched this over the weekend and thought it was OK. Nothing special about the writing or direction but Eliza and Kuno both rose above the material and I thought their storyline ended up working for the most part.

**andrew r** · 01-14-2008, 03:11 PM

Thanks for the info Nobel about the imdb interest. What number was Eliza at before she went to 58?

ThisYearsGuy · 01-15-2008, 02:41 PM

Oh no! What happened? I saw you'd all watched it and got annoyed cos I asked Amazon to tell me when dvd was released. Then I calmed down cos I realisedyou all saw it online. BUT then I went to check Amazon.co.uk for a release date and it's not there anymore - noooo!

Mixed reviews it seems but I still really want to see it!
