That's kind of a bummer that Ladykillers was actually a lame Coen Brothers movie.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Specially since I have just gotten on board with the Coen Love.
Edited to love correctly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Specially since I have just gotten on board with the Cohen Love.
Don't let Kat hear you!
Oh, wait, not Seth.

Has anyone seen this Beowulf and Grendel the Movie?
It actually looks like it could be good. At least, better than 13th Warrior. Of course, my hopes have been dashed before.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Saw Team America yesterday. I didn't enjoy it as much as Z did, but there were a few favorite parts: The kitty panthers, Kim Jong-Il's song, and the Montage! were all high points. The extended puking had me covering my eyes and ears, though.
I liked South Park better, though.
We get to see Stage Beauty on Wednesday! I'm very excited.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
Last night I watched Audition. It was, um, disturbing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I actually like the 13th Warrior. It's not historically accurate and has some realism issues (like the grinding of the viking broad sword into a scimitar) but it's a fun pseudo-fantastical adventure movie.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse
The puking had me covering my eyes too, and the montage song reminded me of Giles song in the musical, Standing in the Way .
But I thought Team America was fun; I'm glad I saw it. Not great, much of it was "smile to myself" funny, rather than "laugh out loud" funny.

I did quite enjoy the three sheild duel in 13th Warrior. Relatively accurate, and also funny. But I cannot watch the whole movie, because something (like the scimitar) always gets me agitated.
