Mayor ,'Chosen'
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.
That was, indeed, the very best bit in GSII P-C.
Wanted to love the film. Couldn't.
On a different note. My best bud has an unwholesome love for Reign of Fire. I'm trying to develop a crush, but except for the pretty good cgi dragons, Gerard Butler's smile and Matthew Mc's WTF quotient, I'm not feeling it.
Besides the woobie love of Pete's Dragon, are there any other good dragon flicks out there? I'm in a medieval state of mind.
Dude, I've been wanting to see Reign of Fire forever. Cause, dragons.
Dragonheart isn't too bad.
And, um, I can't think of any other dragon movies, period, let alone good ones.
Random movie question: I just got two movies out of the library, one of which I think I'll watch tonight. I can't tell what kind of mood I'm in. So, Chinatown or Desk Set?
Desk Set.
Except I think I take it back -- Ocean's Eleven is on TV, and I think THAT might be the actual mood I'm in.

Chinatown - one of the greatest movies of the 70s. Desk Set is entirely lesser Hepburn/Tracy.
I've never even seen Chinatown! And I don't think I've seen Desk Set since I saw a stage adaptation years ago. Either way, I'll get to both of them in the next week.
Desk Set is my favoritest Tracy/Hepburn venture.
It seems to have aged the most gracefully and is somewhat less sexist (a micron, really) than the others. And now that I know more about their relationship? Not as oppressive as, say, Pat and Mike.
eta: my point
Dragonheart. Isn't that the one with Sean Connery?
::scampers to imdb::
Right. Mr. Litigious + plus why would women WANT to play golf on a man's course.
It's been so long ago, I can't even remember if I liked that one.
Hardly any dragon titles on imbd. Harumph.
Dragonheart isn't too bad.
Ugh, I hated Dragonheart with the burning, fiery passion of a thousand white hot suns. Foul, stupid piece of crap.
For a really Medieval film, I suggest Rutger Hauer and Janet Jason Leigh in Flesh + Blood, meant to be a gritty, "realistic" look at the Middle Ages.

The Clooney/Pitt one? I adore that movie beyond all reason. I'll watch it just about every time I catch it on TV. It's just so much fun. I can't wait for the sequel.
