My recommendation (and Futurama's):

Post #23,357 by CRConrad 1/7/02 9:35:15 AM Reply	My recommendation (and Futurama's): Well, besides the obvious fact that NOTHING beats Sigourney[] -- and the only one who's even come close, so far, is (as Norm pointed out, and ironically (in several senses)) Linda H as Mama Connor -- we shouldn't be narrow-minded, but leave the field open to upcoming talent. And having seen yesterday's (on MTV3[+] here in .fi) episode of Futurama, I'm fairly sure that the best they could do would be to dial in the "Erotic Assassin" setting on their Lucy Liu-bot... :-) []: Especially in _Aliens_ (= #2), with the Loader exo-skeleton thingy.

And for any next role - she don't got to be no babe, neither: character wins. Maybe mine is a too-simple mind but.. I watch that about every year or so, and (think I) see.. some other wry bit .. in a brief smirk somewhere. And the angst, inarticulate cynicism of The Age summarized in.. Private ___'s ... it's a bug hunt. Hey.. the little kid (Carrie? Henn) was a trip too. Maybe a fair intellectual match for.. Scott's kid? Hook 'em up! :-\ufffd (So how could they fuck-up III so horribly ? My guess: 'We' fucking well didn't want to see That couple offed in a contrived lame 'car crash'.. even though the next prospects for 'the pair' would have had to be quite imaginitive, not to become maudlin: they couldn't handle that challenge. Boy.. couldn't they.) Ashton we could write our own plots except: no suspense :(

Post #23,539 by inthane-chan 1/8/02 4:46:04 PM Reply	Sandra... ...has the advantage that she can act, as well. Saw an early film of hers, [link\|http://us.imdb.com/Title?0109655\|Double Happiness] with my wife, which deals with a Chinese-Canadian woman trying to balance her heritage (and parents) with her life. She was believable in that film, although I haven't seen her since. "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster.

Post #23,558 by CRConrad 1/8/02 6:09:28 PM Reply	Everything is relative - being "good" in that... ...dreck (Sorry, Dan!) TV series (was it really called _La Femme_, or just _Nikita_? Even if it was, let's not defile that name by using it for this!) doesn't really mean all that much. And no, neither does Bridget Fonda's (or whoeverthefuck it was) performance in the parent phenomenon, the Hollywood movie version... Let's reserve the name "La Femme" for the real Nikita, the original French version of the film. Hmm... There's a thought for (to get back on topic) a Terminatrix: Anne Parillaud, wasn't it?

Post #23,603 by static 1/9/02 12:38:56 AM Reply	Ah... AFAIK, the series was called "Le Femme Nikita", just like the original movie. However, I'm aware that it may have had a different name upon release in other countries. Hollywood does that sometimes with movies; for TV Series it's a bit rarer... Wade.

Post #23,635 by wharris2 1/9/02 11:34:25 AM Reply	Getting a vague memory I haven't had cable television for something like ten years, but now that you mention it, I do have a distant memory of the series being mentioned somewhere.
