'Out Of Gas'
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.
I still don't follow you.
Yeah, I guess I started to get vague at some point in that. I kinda lost my train of thought when the computer crashed on me. Sorry about that. I've lost it and I have to go find a job now. That's my task for today.
Tangent:
Who does your husband write for?
Now I'm lost and have to go find a job.
Pffft, job shmob. Like paying for food and rent takes precendence over talking about movies on the internet.
DH mostly writes for TV Guide and Film Journal International. (His Grudge review, which I suppose after all that I should link to, is here. )
Yes, I have a childish sense of humor. Minor Star Wars Revenge of the Clones spoiler: According to Ain't It Cool News, Yoda farts. This in itself isn't funny, but some of the AICN responses to it are. "It's like a thousand asses screamed out in terror, and suddenly silenced" "Much Taco Bell eaten I have!" "Yes, but...does Yoda poot first?" "The... force... is strong with this one."
BTDT, got the Dominar.

If I could get paid for it then I'd be set for life. And see a lot more movies, since I could afford them. But alas alak such is not the fortune I have. It's good talking to you. Ciao.
I watched Wall Street last night. It was ... okay. Several observations:
1) It's pretty dated, which isn't much of a surprise.
2) Darryl Hannah is awful. Why does she get work? (But I did like her in movies that have "Kill" and "Bill" in the title.)
3) What did Charlie Sheen think would happen when he set out to take down Gekko? That he wouldn't be called to task on his own wrong-doings? Sheesh.
4) I did think Michael Douglas was very good.
Darryl Hannah is awful. Why does she get work?
She makes a good mermaid?
I heard a comedienne do a funny riff on her once, asking if she was the daughter of a studio head.
It was Paula Poundstone: "What is Darryl Hanna doing in a film? Does her dad own a studio or something? She is the worst piece of shit actress I’ve ever seen in my life. She’s painfully, wretchedly, horribly bad. And people say, well she’s pretty. And I agree that she’s pretty, I think she’s beautiful, but couldn’t we just have a picture of her in the upper corner of the screen? Does she have to try to move and talk like that? Because I think those are the two problem areas for her, the moving and the talking. Without that she’s golden. Cause she hasn't really played a human being that many times if you think about it. What did she do? Splash, Blade Runner, and Clan of the Cave Bear. So she's played a fish, a robot, and a missing link. I'm willing to bet you she was best in Clan of the Cave Bear."

Ooh yeah, she was pretty cool in Blade Runner, though. Did she do her own gymnastics?
