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'll bet agents cast for that specific role all the time...the other guy.

Also watched Sliding Doors tonight. I was in a romantic mood. And John Hannah can be my other guy any ol' time.

Chronicles of Riddick last night. PEE-yew-pee!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Guineveres are always simpering cows in movie versions.

Vanessa Redgrave? Helen Mirren?

Yeah, I really think it is the Mathis, not the Gwynnies.

I think I remember something about her and River. And yeah, you gotta wonder where he'd be right now. Natalie Merchant's song about him just. kills. me.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Vanessa Redgrave?

Eeek. I loathe Camelot. Especially that "If I Ever Leave You" song. God, gag me with a spoon.

Helen Mirren?

Played Morgan Le Fey (and rocked like a a great big rocking thing), not Guinevere.

That figures. I mean, that's who I'd cast as Morgan Le Fey. It's been a long time since I've seen it. Mostly I remember they scooped up pretty much all the leads from the RSC for it. It's practically a year-book snapshot.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I loathe Camelot.

Oh Vonnie. And I thought we shared a brain.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I loathe Camelot.

It's only a model!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Heh. I remember back in the late 80s I picked a quartet of actors that I thought were going to go places based on early performances. Julia Roberts, Dermot Mulroney, John J. York, and Kelly Preston. I'm happy that the middle two are still working and the last probably doesn't need to anymore, although Julia seems to have sucked up the lion's share of the success.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

I saw the "whatever happened to Samantha Mathis" question, and then a big conversation about six degrees of separation, but not sure the question ever got answered.

She was one of the ... uh, seers (?) in Minority Report, was the mother in In America, and was a really hot mermaid arguing with a really hot Larry Mullen Jr in U2's gorgeous "Electrical Storm" video.

Was she also in Sweet and Lowdown? Wasn't she nominated for an Oscar for that?

That's Samantha Morton.
