Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Robin, did you feel the lack of his penis?

I haven't seen it and I feel the lack of CF's penis.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I ALWAYS feel the lack of CF's penis, ita. But didn't think it was needed in the film--there is enough emotional nudity, if you see what I mean. Plus a pretty pretty shot of CF walking down the hall which reveals the torso down to millimeters of the aforesaid member.

Eh, if I feel an overpowering need to see that, I'll go rent Tigerland. I'm far more concerned with his handling the emotional requirements of the role, which it sounds as if he's done superbly.
x-post with Robin.

I just finished watching my DVD of Aaron Vanek's short film The Yellow Sign that he was kind enough to send me. Very good handling of mood via cinematography, and an interesting updating/re-imagining of the story, though the lead actor didn't work all that well for me.
However, the last thing you want to do when watching this movie (which includes a very creepy moving puppet in some sequences) is look up and realize your plush Cthulhu is no longer sitting where it's supposed to be.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I saw Beyond the Valley of the Dolls last night. One truly screwed-up movie.
I couldn't stop laughing for the last half hour. Which can't have been the reaction the makers intended.
Roger Ebert co-wrote it. Now I know where he gets his knowledge of bad movies.
Camp-bad, yes. But bad.
Not for the kids. If for no other reason than, they shouldn't think that actual adults may behave the way some of these characters act.

The evil is this way?
You know, they don't write lines like that anymore.
Thankfully.

No, but they do steal them for use in Austin Powers movies.
