A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Will John Waters be there?

Will John Waters be there?

Oh yeah. He's kind of always around.

Should I pay $100 to go to the premiere of the new John Waters movie? It's for a good cause...

Well, the cast is...interesting: Tracey Ullman, Johnny Knoxville (!), Chris Isaak and Selma Blair.

I know Waters is a hugely entertaining speaker, but not sure if that will come into play if he's just introducing the film.

I think at least Johnny Knoxville and Selma Blair are supposed to be there.

I saw Kitano's Zatoichi last weekend, Frankenbuddha. Definitely wacky. I think large portions of it made cultural references that passed over my head, but I enjoyed it, anyway.

John Waters is a very entertaining speaker, but I suppose he's less special if he's always around.

Not the two stars I'd want to see out of the four, but that's me.

I've never even seen any of the original ZATOICHI movies, so I suspect there may have been a lot of in-jokes I'd didn't understand. Hugely entertaining nonetheless.

No, he's always special.

I like John Waters a lot better as a personality/public speaker than as a filmmaker.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I just got back from seeing Donnie Darko: the Director's Cut. I never saw the original, so I don't know what's different.

Wow, that is one f*ed-up film! And I mean that in a good way.

One question though, are we supposed to believe that everything that transpired was some kind of collective dream?
