The Terminal

[Davagator]

An eastern immigrant finds himself stranded in JFK airport, and must take up temporary residence there.

I thought it was a pretty good movie, funny at times. Just goes to show how stupidly anal our country is sometimes... well at least some of the people that are in charge...

I would recommend watching it.

[camillusk]

Just watched it last night! I thought it was pretty good too. Felt bad for the guy. Tom Hanks is awesome. :smt023

[Davagator]

Did it say how long he was actually stuck there? Yea, I felt bad for him too.

[AllCutieWants]

Umm.. I believe he still lives there!

:-k I thought (fos) this was the story of that guy...


While this film allegedly is not based on a real-life story in any way, there is a man who has spent an extended amount of time in an airport. Since 1988, Iranian expatriate Merhan Karimi Nessari has resided in Terminal 1 of Paris' Charles de Gaulle Airport.

According to reports, Dreamworks did give Nessari some money for the rights to his story in order to avoid possible lawsuits over the concept.

[Davagator]

Hmm. :-k

[camillusk]

Wow. That's interesting.

[Nosenoddles]

I thought it was a good movie. The boss guy was an asshole.

[camillusk]

Yea! What was his problem? All of a sudden he had like this huge vendetta against him!

[Davagator]

Didn't I go to grade school with Vendettas?

[camillusk]

I went with Vendettis. I actually had one as my bridesmaid, but she decided to stop being my friend after I got married. :smt097

[Nosenoddles]

I've seen that happen before. I think they are just jealous that they suck and can't get married themselves.

[camillusk]

Agreed. Her loss. She can bite me. :smt019

[AllCutieWants]

Maybe she didnt wnat to stop being ur friend but felt like the odd man out :-k

[Davagator]

I'll go with camillusk on this. She can piss off.

Who was it anyways?

[camillusk]

Her name is Julie Vendetti and usually if I hung out with her, it was just her and me or a bunch of other girls and we always had alot of fun. So, I can't think of when or why she'd have felt like the odd man out. Plus, I know she has other friends that she's still friends with that are married. But they're all "girl power" and shit, so I don't know what her problem is. I tried calling her and emailing her for awhile and then I just finally gave up. It still bugs me, because I've never had someone that I was good friends with all of a sudden ignore my calls and emails and basically tell me that she doesn't want to be my friend anymore. Ask Davagator, I get along with everyone! :smt102
