Wasn't Cate wonderful? Adored her.
She was terrific. It would have been so easy for that role to have turned ridiculous, but she just nailed it.
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I saw Finding Neverland yesterday, and LOVED it. It made me cry like crazy, in happy ways and sad. I do have an irrational love of Peter Pan that only added to the whole thing -- the story pisses me off when I think too hard about the Peter/Wendy relationship, but if I don't think too hard, I just cry. I thought all the kids were great. And you can't go wrong with Johnny Depp.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
I really should see that movie. And re-read that book now that I'm a (semi-demi) adult.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
God bless Johnny Depp. He's such a magical little man. He is in the rare place of being completely stereotypable, but there's still a lot of acting range needed for him to be Jack Sparrow and JM Barrie, although they're both men with a lot of fantastical boy in them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Clint Eastwood won the DGA for Million Dollar Baby.
Hmmm. And DGA has a high rate for predicting Directing Oscar because it's basically the same people, right?

They have a high rate of prediction, but I'm pretty sure the Oscar nominations are done by peers, award voting by everyone.

All but 6 of the DGA winners in the last 20 years have gone on to win the Oscar for best director. The last time when Roman Polanski won for The Pianist.

Alan Cumming on the Joss/Xmen3 rumors:
Regarding the much touted Joss Whedon rumors, Cumming speculated that they were false. "I don't think he is though. I heard that too last year, but I don't know. I don't think that's happening. Maybe it is. It certainly seems to be that was around, but I don't know. I mean, I think he'd be great."
