What can I say? Michael has an itchy trigger finger. grin.gif

This scene made me realize how important immunizations in Section are:

Operations: Nice result in Djakarta.

Madeline: Except for C Team.

Operations: I didn’t read the appendix. What happened?

Madeline: There was an outbreak in the area.

Operations: Our people were infected?

Madeline: We didn’t test. We just eliminated the variable.

Operations: The whole team?

Madeline: Yes.

Operations: It’s too bad. Still, better to lose the hand and save the body.

'itchy trigger finger'? lol.gif And great scene of Madeline and Operations! nod.gif

The post on Peta's thread reminded me of the scene in 'Spec Ops' where Michael tells Nikita 'You just signed our death warrant.' One of those scenes where they're facing each other... Which always made for a great scene!

And while I was at it, I found some more great lines:

Nikita: I'm tired of being careful.

Michael: Get over it!

***

Nikita: No ..., I don't think so, Michael. ... He's different.

Michael: Different from what?

(Nikita gives Michael a long measured look, before retorting -- )

Nikita: Different from you.

I've been thinking that maybe we should take a different approach concerning the board. People do come into the threads here and there, so maybe if we'll have a board, we'll have more posters. And since we hit thread number three I thought I'll go ahead and post a request. I mean, if you combine the threads that we have, we have over 1000 posts!
Plus, it's not like we have something to lose wink.gif

Anyway, here's the request.
cryurname
Great request job! Very professional sounding. Oh, and thanks for the quotes! I can never get enough LFN quotage.

Thank you blush.gif I wasn't sure what you guys will think, so I'm really relieved. Now all we can do is hope we'll get it wink.gif

On a side note, 'Les Filles de Caleb' won on the 'Favorite theme song?' poll (anyone else sense 'LFN fans'? wink.gif )

Don Francks is on the new poll: Favorite Character Actor? (tough poll this time :sigh:)
cryurname
I'm not surprised. He's just wonderful like that. Plus he had the whole heroic death, twin brother thing. Who doesn't love that?
lyric
Yeah, Birkoff was... well, Birkoff.

Thinking about it, Birkoff grew up in Section. So he never had friends? Toys? sad.gif How one grows up in Section?!

His toys were computers. Come to think of it, so were his friends...

You think? I mean I voted Don, of course, but William Sadler was great as Sheriff Valenti.

Anyway, I came to the realization that apparently when a poll has something that is even remotely(?) LFN, chances are that it will take the poll (see 'Les Filles de Caleb').

Just wanted to let you know that Kris Lemche (who played Greg Hillinger) is on 'Final Destination 3'. I didn't see Portugal on the list (I checked imdb.com) but Israel and the U.S. is there (16.2 and 10.2 respectively ).

Hillinger was a great character!

I always wanted to beat Hillinger up. He was such a jerk to Birkoff....I think I could've taken him.

Yeh Sadler is great but I'm not a huge fan of the solo parent figure to a show of young characters. Characters like Valenti & Giles shoulder too much in their token 'dad' positions tongue.gif. I realise Walter was somewhat of a dad figure too but at least he was more a part of an ensemble....or least I thought he made more of an impact with a smaller role.

I agree. I think it had a lot to do with the time that he had spent in Section. The way that Madeline and Operations treated him... I don't know if respect is the right word here. But he definitely held some kind of power.

The polls' site is down at the moment, but I think Don has won.

Anyway, to get things around here moving again, how about the ABC game? wink.gif

From Canoe.ca:

Lemche's 'Simple' plan pays off
Actor starring in thriller and Calgary-produced film


By LOUIS B. HOBSON -- Calgary Sun

Kris Lemche is relishing what he calls a season of calm.

The former Ontario native has two movies he shot in British Columbia last year currently in simultaneous release. In Final Destination 3, he plays a doomed high school student and in A Simple Curve, he is a young man trying to put meaning in his life.

“These films couldn’t be more totally different universes,” says Lemche from his home in Los Angeles. “A Simple Curve was a tiny film we shot in the interior of B.C. in three weeks. We worked 16-hour days and I was on set every day.

“Final Destination 3 was a $30-million production that I was a small part of. I just had to turn up, have fun and collect a paycheque. Some weeks I only worked a few days.”

In A Simple Curve, Lemche, 27, plays the rebellious son of an American draft dodger who raised him in the Slocan Valley. Lemche says he felt “so much responsibility for A Simple Curve. It was like I was carrying the movie on my shoulders and I loved the responsibility.

“With Final Destination 3, it was as if the picture was this huge tidal wave that was going to hit land no matter what I did or didn’t do. I just got on and enjoyed the wild ride.”

Guerilla-style shoot

It was not until trailers for Final Destination 3 began appearing in cinemas and on TV that Lemche realized being in the slasher movie carried more responsibility than he realized.

“I’ve always been a really private person and love that I was virtually unrecognized in L.A. so the past few weeks have seemed like intense chaos. The moment the first ads began appearing for Final Destination 3, people started coming up to me and asking me how I died in the film and in what order. These movies have such an incredible fan base and I suddenly found myself part of their fascination for the films.”

Lemche was born in Brampton and began acting in Toronto when he was 15.

When he was 20, he moved to L.A.

“I was living in this little apartment in Toronto with some other guys. One of them happened to also be an actor. When we got evicted from our apartment, he and I packed up the ’85 Jetta and headed to L.A.”

Two months later Lemche’s roommate moved back to Toronto.

“He had things back in Canada he had to sort out.

“I had a great deal of determination to stick it out and make things work in L.A. That was the difference between the two of us.”

Ironically. several of Lemche’s biggest projects. including Ginger Snaps, eXistence, Knockaround Guys and the TV series La Femme Nikita, brought him back to Canada.

He recalls the guerilla-style shooting of A Simple Curve as one of the most exciting experiences of his career.

“We shot in a little town of no more than 300 people. Our whole crew increased that by about 100 people.”

A Simple Curve, which was produced by Calgarian George Baptist, had its premiere at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival and, the following month, played to sold-out houses at the Calgary and Vancouver festivals.

you guys stole my "B".... shame on you guys!....

Liron: our roswell heart had to come up... uh?....

no portugal: it's always the same thing..... sad.gif

Of course everybody loves our Birkie.... who couldn't?... as for him growing there.... i think that the being a kid there really influenced the person/character he turned out to be...in such a way that i never dot to thin of him as a "child" in the middle of the operations field... sometimes i even forgot he was the youngest there... as he was one of the characters who "knew" how to "live" there...

The Assassin aka Point Of No Return aired in Australia over the weekend - love that movie! It's where my obsession of Nikita began along with my love of Nina Simone music & actors Gabriel Byrne & Dermot Mulroney drool.gif. After that fim I went back & saw Nikita which I love & then got addicted to La Femme Nikita smile.gif....viscious cycle tongue.gif.

Anyone else like that movie? Or do you think it's a cheap knockoff from Luc Besson's original?

lol.gif Yeah, I can just see this one happening.

I would like to hear what the actors' thoughts were when the shootings ended. I mean, it was supposed to be the last season. What did they think of the 'end'?

Bloopers are always good nod.gif And I was thinking of 'He Came From Four'. Michael Cera (Jerome) was about 12 (possibly even younger), and though we had young actors on the show, he's character was just... creepy. I would love to hear his take on it, as well as the other actors' (and crew) thoughts on how was it to work with him.
