'Shindig'
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.
Movie about time travel that hasn't been mentioned: Frequency. It's a decent movie, though I was going to shoot myself if I had to watch that thing drop behind the radiator or whatever in slow-motion one. More. Time.
Awesome computer game with time travel fun: Day of the Tentacle.
Mickey Rooney
Judy Garland
Elizabeth Taylor
Tom said what I was about to, but I add Jackie Cooper.
Also, Robert Blake.
It's probably too soon to really say if he's making a comeback, but Macaulay Culkin, Former Annoying Child Star, impressed me in Saved.
Don't call it a comeback. He been here for years.
Mickey Rooney was a child once? Duuuude.
Diane Lane and Anthony Michael Hall come to mind from my age bracket, although they were more teenager-to-adult than child-adult transitions.
ETA: I take it back about Mickey Rooney. I was thinking of Mickey Rourke, who's an entirely different kettle of fish.
are former child actors much more likely to be successful adult actors now than, say, 20 years ago?
How about Leonardo DiCaprio? I'm not a fan, but he's come a long way from that sitcom the name of which is escaping me.
Growing Pains?
Eliljah Wood?
Henry Thomas -- he still acts (I just watched him in I Capture the Castle -- even though he's not a big star.
Natalie Portman
Eliza Dushku
Kirsten Dunst
