River ,'Ariel'
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 just watched Mean Girls. I want my two hours back.
I liked the extras on the DVD better than the movie. It's just -- the movie was NOTHING like the trailer made it seem. Granted, trailers are often deliberately vague, but Mean Girls was a case of bait and switch.
Though Lindsey Lohan is a hottie.
I enjoyed Mean Girls, but can't remember what the trailers said it was. It may live fondly in my memory as the last Lohan movie before she started to bug the shit out of me.
Makes him look a bit thick, doesn't it? Like he hasn't got a neck.
He's not recognizably Bale in that photo, but then the same can be said of all the footage I've seen from The Machinist.
Just got back from House of Flying Daggers.
Pretty. Over the top, but pretty.(The choreography of the fights, the costumes, the leads, the scenery...)
Just watched The Big Chill for the first time in an eon. I used to love that movie, but I had a feeling that I wouldn't like it anymore. Like, a while after I saw it I started to look at it as sort of excusing yuppies selling out or something.
But I found I still like it a lot. Even if the two characters I relate to most are Alex and Nick....
Oh. Not the Bogart movie. Took me a little bit to figure that out. Was having trouble parsing yuppies and Bogie.
I love Mean Girls.
I never once saw the trailer.
And the DVD is pink.
The dance in the kitchen is one of my favorite pieces of film ever.
Haven't been here in ages...not seeing many movies. but I did just see The Incredibles and liked it. But I hated being in a theatre with small children.
