Just got back from The Incredibles.
Loved it like a crazy person. I want my very own Edna.
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

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.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
I saw Audition a few weeks ago. There were a few very brief things I'd classify as "scary," but I wouldn't put the graphic torture in as "scary."
"Gross," "jaw-dropping" and "what the shit IS this," yes.

If I only had a brain...
Edna was a dead-on portrait (at least physically) of the legendary Hollywood costume designer Edith Head.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Edna is a delight and a wonder. The whole montage on why capes are BAD had me in pain from the funny.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I love The Incredibles so so much and I want to watch it again a MILLION times.
I can already tell it's going to be one of those movies where the crypoints are going to bleed into the surrounding scenes until I'm quietly tearing up throughout the entire film. It's going to be Lilo & Stitch all over again. (There was actually a point towards the end where I realized that the giant machine they fight basically IS a mechanical Stitch, the way it tucks in its arms and rolls around destroying stuff.)

I have a plan.
Pierce Brosnan wants Colin Farrell.

That was very intentional.
I LOVED the cape montage. SO HILARIOUS!

I've often said that I don't want any more film adaptations of Alan Moore comics, because they always seem to go very, very badly. And within 5 minutes of The Incredibles, I was jumping up and down in my seat, elbowing Ethan and whispering "IT'S WATCHMEN!!!!!!"
How much do I love Pixar? THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS much!

Heh. I thought when I saw the mechanical Robodoom, "God, they must be pissed off that Sky captain came out first!

Okay, I am now kind of spoiled for The Incredibles. There is no way for my weak will to resist white font about it in two different threads, over several days.
I am not made of steel, people.
Like, uh... that guy Skip. On that Minear show. Angel. He was all, like, metallic and stuff. Right?
