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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Gary OLDMAN is James Gordon? How did I miss that? They should switch him with Caine.
Actually...I can see it.
You ever see The Professional? Oldman as a corrupt cop, but he's got that crazy under VERY TIGHT control?
I can see him twisting that for "good".
I think it can rock.

I double sniff disdainfully in your general direction.

Hey. New board.
Standing with Hec. Rushmore is teh awesome. (Notice how I get both smartypants cred and stupid annoying cred in one fell swoop with that sentence.)
Also? The Royal Tenenbaums.
ETA: Then again, I also have memories of enjoying First Knight. But that was at least 10 years ago. So I would have been 11 or younger.

Hudson Hawk is a GREAT movie.
I love it, yes I do.

I saw Before Sunset last night. Completely agree with the people who loved it. It was one of the few times in my movie watching career that as I'm thinking, "Here. The movie should end right here," it actually fades to black. That never happens! Great performances by Ethan Hawke (who I usually don't like) and Julie Delpy and the conversation was much better than the original (which I also enjoyed). It was also the most romantic movie I've seen in theaters in a year or two.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Hey, I *watched* Rushmore AND The Royal Tenenbaums, so I'm not dismissing them out of hand (consider them, if you will, my cinematic white whales). I just seem to be sliding into Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel-ness.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I also don't share the Rushmore love. I just thought the kid was annoying.
I was once on a music mailing list--there was this really cool woman there who said that she'd never date anyone who didn't think that Rushmore was one of the best movies ever made.
