Christian Bale talks about the Bat.
I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
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.

If I only had a brain...
Sigh. An LJ acquaintance went to Sky Captain and she's calling it the second-worst movie she saw all year, the first being Riddick.

I heard very early bad buzz last winter. But I have heard other reviews. However, I have no interest in it at all.

Sumi, that Christian Bale interview made me go find the EW cover that made me finally concede that I was wrong, and dear Lord, is Christian Bale HOTT.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
At least one critic is calling Sky Captain the best film of the year.
Edit: Whoops, that review is rather spoilery.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
From that "Doom" article:
