Buffy ,'Chosen'
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.

About Doom:

Ick.
At least one critic is calling Sky Captain the best film of the year.
Edit: Whoops, that review is rather spoilery.
From that "Doom" article:
the leader of a special ops team, who crosses paths with the organization responsible for his parents' deaths while battling alien demons,
Heh. The "alien demons" part is cracking me up. They are not just regular demons. They are demons from outer space!
