1969912 0 #1 January 1, 2009 Anyone seen this movie yet? It was released in major US cities a couple weeks ago. VERY good film. Don't miss it.

diablopilot 2 #2 January 1, 2009 Enjoyed it, and would recommend it. The credits were a bit odd however. ---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1969912 0 #3 January 1, 2009 I downloaded a reviewer's screener and am not sure if it has the credits at the end. Watching it again now and will check the credits (if any) out. What was strange about them? For torrent users, here's a link to the screener torrent, but this film is really worth paying for if it's showing in your town: http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4599539/Slumdog.Millionaire.DVDSCR.XViD-GENUiNE_ "Once we got to the point where twenty/something's needed a place on the corner that changed the oil in their cars we were doomed . . ." -NickDG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1969912 0 #4 January 1, 2009 OK, the credits are a total crackup. A nod to Bollywood? "Once we got to the point where twenty/something's needed a place on the corner that changed the oil in their cars we were doomed . . ." -NickDG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
