THIS is sexy.

[anti_troll]

Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis? yes please.

[Cry Havoc]

Saw this tonight. Great film. Some VERY hot scenes between Mila and Natalie, and will keep you on edge the entire way through.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

This is a flick I'd wanted to see regardless of the "lesbianism". Mila is hawt

[Cry Havoc]

This is a flick I'd wanted to see regardless of the "lesbianism". Mila is hawt

She is definitely a top 5 Hollywood babe.

I can't believe this thread isn't several pages long, given the content.

Even without the foreplay between Kunis and Natalie, this is an awesome movie.

[MannyIsGod]

Saw it yesterday and it was pretty good.

[monosylab1k]

I never really got the appeal of Natalie Portman. For years and years and years. Now I do.

[thispego]

she was hot as far back as The Professional. you blind mono

[Viva Las Espuelas]

She is definitely a top 5 Hollywood babe.
Well I don't know about her ranking but she makes me moist.


I never really got the appeal of Natalie PortmanI hear ya, brah. She looks like a nice little boy most of the time. :lol Never womanly.

[David Bowie]

I'm seeing it sometime this week. First movie I have wanted to see in the movie theater for a while.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Saw it. Pretty good. The graphic scenes started to get a little much here and there but overall a pretty cool movie.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

The graphic scenes started to get a little much here and there???

[mrsmaalox]

As far as the younger actresses go, taking into consideration her intelligence/education, lack of bimbo tendencies and visits to rehab, as well as her physical attributes, I think Natalie Portman is gorgeous.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Same could be said of Mila minus the education. Intelligence on both are up for debate :lol

[Spurminator]

Not much of a debate probably. One's a Harvard grad and the other built and maintained a successful American acting career while she was still learning English.

[Sisk]

This is one of the most fucked up movies I've ever seen.

But good.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Not much of a debate probably. One's a Harvard grad and the other built and maintained a successful American acting career while she was still learning English.
I see. I guess I'll have to remember that a college diploma represents intelligence over those that haven't been. :toast

[BlackSwordsMan]

We all know smart people don't go to college. They drop out of hs and become mechanics.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

We all know smart people don't go to college. They drop out of hs and become mechanics.
and screw the people that didn't. :lol it's all relative

[Spurminator]

I see. I guess I'll have to remember that a college diploma represents intelligence over those that haven't been. :toast

It's safe to assume that the average Harvard graduate is most likely more intelligent than the average person with no college education. I really don't think that's much of a stretch, nor should it be taken as an insult if you didn't go to college.

[BlackSwordsMan]

and screw the people that didn't. :lol it's all relativetouche

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Nice! Demonoid's got the screener up. :tu

[Cant_Be_Faded]

???

Not the lesbian make out scenes...the graphic/bloody scenes....theres some shit in this movie that made me cringe like more than normal...

It's like hostel-esque for a few parts here and there, but other than that, a good movie.

i see

[ididnotnothat]

If only Mila had an ass.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Good movie. I didn't find the lesbian part half as hot as Portman's solo pleasuring scene.

She is a fantastic actress as well.

[MannyIsGod]

Saw it. Pretty good. The graphic scenes started to get a little much here and there but overall a pretty cool movie.

Our whole theater audibly winced several times throughout the movie.

[CuckingFunt]

Is it violence? Or just the shit that dancing does to her body? I've heard the latter is a bit hard to watch.

[MannyIsGod]

Its not violence per say, just graphic. I don't really know how to describe it without giving stuff away.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Good movie. I didn't find the lesbian part half as hot as Portman's solo pleasuring scene.

I feel the same way

the camera had some awesome arched-back-with-ass-in-air-whilst-fingering-oneself-vigorously shots of Natalie

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Is it violence? Or just the shit that dancing does to her body? I've heard the latter is a bit hard to watch.

You haven't seen it yet???

There are just some graphic scenes....a little of both of what you say.

hostel-esque at parts, like manny said the audience was "awwww...."ing almost every time they did it

[CuckingFunt]

You haven't seen it yet???

Surprisingly, no. It's one of at least five movies currently playing (counting True Grit) that I really want to see, but I haven't had the time.

[Sisk]

Yeah, like they're saying, it's not necessarily violent - just disturbing. As MIG said it's not really possible to describe it without giving things away.

When I first left the theater I didn't really know what to tell other people about the movie or whether or not it should be recommended. After I've slept on it I definitely recommend the movie and I want to see it again. Just prepare yourself before you go into the movie for quite a ride..

[Viva Las Espuelas]

:shootme

Very intelligent retort, Darrin. Damn you are defensive about this subject. Fine. There is absolutely no correlation between intelligence and quality of education.

Feel better? Now what's your evidence that Natalie Portman isn't an intelligent person, since you feel it's debatable?

[CuckingFunt]

Even without making it a comparative statement, it's probably safe to assume that one couldn't obtain a degree from Harvard without being fairly intelligent.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Yeah I bet she only fucks smart guys too

[MannyIsGod]

She's in a romantic comedy with aschton next though. Pretty shitty.

[koriwhat]

She is definitely a top 5 Hollywood babe.

she's cute but that no-ass thing is a bit of a problem... no-ass having females :td

[Dr. Gonzo]

Serious question, being a calf tatted man do you prefer women with calf tats as well so you too can have intimate discussions about said calf tats?

:lmao this is rich

Natalie Portman is pregnant and engaged (http://marquee.blogs.cnn.com/2010/12/27/natalie-portman-is-pregnant-and-engaged/)


So much for that lithe "Black Swan" ballerina body - Natalie Portman is pregnant!
A rep for the 29-year-old Golden Globe nominee confirms to CNN that Portman and choreographer Benjamin Millepied are engaged and expecting their first child together.
French-born dancer Millepied, 33, has performed with the New York City Ballet and was the choreographer for Portman's critically acclaimed thriller "Black Swan." The couple were first romantically linked last New Year's Eve, when they attended a party together in New York City.
Portman has not yet revealed the baby's due date or when the wedding will take place. Stay tuned!


Notable Comments:

Sorry but this is somewhat disappointing. Everyone else gets engaged once they find out they are pregnant in Hollywood and for NP to join that club, I don't know, it's a let down, especially with her smarts(Now Now!! :nope). Jeez

Unwanted Pregnancy Engagement... it's the new trend in Hollyweird... That is my opinion.

Cool, maybe now she'll develop a chest. :lol

[theInternet]

Cool, maybe now she'll develop a chest. :lol

It didn't help Nicole Ritchie.

[Slomo]

...

French-born dancer Millepied

...


:lol Millepied (in French) = Thousand feet

That's a pretty cool name for a dancer :lol

[CuckingFunt]

I'm indifferent on the pregnancy and engagement, but the movie was really good. Better than I expected, actually. And better than The Wrestler, which I thought was good but VERY overrated. Black Swan -- perhaps because it was a thriller and allowed more of the tricks and darkness at which Aronofsky excels -- didn't feel quite as forced as that one did. The comparison is difficult, though, and in fact is one I wouldn't make if not for Aronofsky's own comments that the two films are intended as companion pieces.


Also... even with the shaky camera and psychological thriller weirdness, there's no part of me that's going to complain about watching Mila Kunis go down on Natalie Portman.

[MannyIsGod]

I would have never thought to compare it to the Wrestler (I think the Wrestler is better, TBH but I was all over that movie - I probably identified with it more than this one) so thats interesting he said that.

[oh crap]

i'm assuming all this super graphic shit you guys are talking about occur in the last half hour of the movie. i'm an hr 13 mins in on my online viewing and haven't seen anything close to cringe worthy. anyway, so far so good.

[Leetonidas]

Honestly, this movie was terrible. Not really graphic or disturbing at all, at least to me. It was pretty mild imo. And it was a very simple plot line that tried too hard to be all tripped out and artsy. Glad I saw it for free,

[MannyIsGod]

Lol wtf was artsy about this movie? It was a straight up suspense thriller.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

The only thing missing was period blood.

[oh crap]

anyway, this movie was pretty bad ass. portman should win the best actress golden globe imo, great performance. wasn't as edgy as i was led to believe but really enjoyed it non the less. liked this way better than the fighter actually.

[resistanze]

She was like 10 years old in that movie.

Yeah, that's some pedo shit :lol

[CuckingFunt]

Lol wtf was artsy about this movie? It was a straight up suspense thriller.

Lesbians = artsy. Everyone knows this.

[Leetonidas]

Lol wtf was artsy about this movie? It was a straight up suspense thriller.

Are you kidding? It's a movie about BALLET, brah. Pretty artsy imo

[ididnotnothat]

Ballet and suspense/thriller? That just doesn't sound right.

[oh crap]

She's in a romantic comedy with aschton next though. Pretty shitty.

she also did hesher with gordon-levitt this year that's supposed to be pretty good. i wanna see that one soon.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

I saw it. So was she dreaming?

[MannyIsGod]

Nah the top fell at the end.

[JoeChalupa]

Nah the top fell at the end.

Which one's top fell off!?

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Which one's top fell off!?
none

[Viva Las Espuelas]

portman was both of them, right?

[MannyIsGod]

***Possible Spoilers***







My interpretation was that Portman was simply completely consumed by it and her mind fabricated certain situations in part of her becoming the character necessary for the part. She wanted it so badly she became obsessed and her mind visualized it but it was all in her mind (with the exception of the final wound - the fight with mila happend in her mind but she actually wounded herself).

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Spoiler too

I believe Mila was all in Portman's mind. The way the mom acted, both times, when all of them were on screen. The first time her mom simply said it was someone and the second time she didn't really acknowledge Mila was in the room.

[MannyIsGod]

MORE SPOLING!





I don't believe that to be the case because she's introduced as a dancer and everyone else acknowledges her but I do believe tons of scenes with Mila were obviously in her mind. You could make an argument for it, though, since there is so much throughout the movie that was all in her head.

[JoeChalupa]

damn it.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

I would agree with this. I think the character is real, but I think the rivalry is wholly imagined.

Why does Natalie Portman look like she is about to cry all the time?

That gown kinda looks like a stab wound dripping blood.

[David Bowie]

I loved Natalie's gown as well as Mila's. (The greenish turquoise dress looked great with her hair color.)


I think that Mila's character (Lily) was real. Of course some of the scenes such as the sex scene were not real. I do not believe that the rivalry was imagined. However, I do think that Nina's mind augmented the rivalry. (It was not as intense as she thought.) Everybody wanted to play the white/black swan, so it seems unrealistic that Lily didn't want the part and wasn't jealous of Nina. I think that she was really trying to savatage Nina by spiking her drink.

Most people think that Lily was trying to get Nina to loosen up by taking her out and giving her the drug the night before a dress rehearsal. However, a drug like extacy (I assume that's what she gave her) can mess people up for many days or even weeks after the drug is taken, especially if the person has underlying mental issues. (I think that Lily knew that Nina had some sort of a mental illness.) Lily was visibly upset when Nina showed for the dress rehearsal and when she sowed up to dance the white/black swan at the premiere. So, I do think she was trying to steal Nina's part.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Ha.

I was actually surprised on how much she was showing. Then again, she is tiny.

[redzero]

Funny you should mention that.

[Jacob1983]

Saw it last night. Thought it was pretty good. Padme definitely deserves the Oscar in my silly opinion. She stole the show in this movie. Excellent performance.

[koriwhat]

holy shit... zzzZZZzzz...

am i really the only one here who was bored to death?

this isn't a spoiler but...
to be perfect, you have to give a perfect performance and never look back? i don't get it... so she killed the little child within and let her wings take her away?

wtf did i just watch?

[koriwhat]

i'm assuming all this super graphic shit you guys are talking about occur in the last half hour of the movie. i'm an hr 13 mins in on my online viewing and haven't seen anything close to cringe worthy. anyway, so far so good.

there's nothing to cringe at except maybe the beginning when the whole finger/skin thing but other than that... these people are just pussies or strictly women.

[vy65]

Decent, but definitely not Arronofsky's best. It didnt pack the emotional punch of The Fountain or The Wrestler and was a diet version of RFAD or Pi in terms of being graphic or visceral.

[silverblk mystix]

Just got to seeing this...

Meh...

Didn't care for it...boring...and seriously...

Any guys here that would sincerely like to be involved with Portman's character or a girl like that in real life? She had so many fuckin' issues I actually WANTED her to die for real...

Any women in here that would care to be friends with a head case like this?

I didn't think so...

If a character is so boring and/or disturbed...why would an audience root for her and care for her...what kind of writing is this (a current trend in today's movies-it seems) where a lead character is such a turnoff that you lose interest in their plight?

Any one else thinks this flick was overrated?

[oh crap]

the social network/the fighter and the winter's bone were all extremely overrated. i thought this one was pretty damn good.

Genuine LOLs at calling Black Swan a "ballet movie."

[silverblk mystix]

Genuine LOLs at calling Black Swan a "ballet movie."

No, only artsy people would call it a movie between some kind of inner struggle and the forces of good and evil....red shoes movie 1948, blah blah, bourgeois, blah...

Please...

It was an anorexic dysfunctional psycho obsessed girl who wanted something so badly she became a freakin' cartoon character...

If you really were drawn into the struggle and the quest for perfection , etc...good for you...

To me it got boring and ...been there...done that...meh...

Yes yes but you see two chicks eat out each other.
