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.

Can I go see Garden State first?
Yes you may. (The better it does, the sooner NU can start using Zach as it's successful-alumnus poster child instead of David Schwimmer.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sod off - it's playing on the Magnificent Mile. Is is playing any place magnificent in SF?

Huh? Ebert reviewed it in the Sun Times and he doesn't do that if the movie hasn't opened yet (as opposed to his show where he does).

Yeah, I was relying on Yahoo Movies. Fandango found one theater in downtown Chicago.

Use the Metromix page at the Tribune's website to get a pretty accurate movie listing for Chicago and 'burbs--it's got Shaun of the Dead in 24 theaters in the area.

Oh duh. There's more theaters listed on the next page at Fandango. But I avoid going to 'burbs other than Evanston.
I guess the moral of the story is that I cannot be relied upon for accurate information on showings of Shaun of the Dead in Chicago.

And in this very thread, from me. Go see it! It's brilliantly funny.
Am going to Shaun of the Dead tonight based on your review! And the very funny interview with the filmmakers in the paper yesterday in which they referred to a Zombie zeitgeist.

Shaun of the Dead has Dawn (whose real name is Lucy Davis) from The Office in it, too, apparently.
