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.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
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 really should see that movie. And re-read that book now that I'm a (semi-demi) adult.
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.

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.
Jesse's right.

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."
Scream 2 is on AMC.
WHY do I not have Neve Campbell's hair? (It would be nice to look like her in general, but the haircut is actually within my reach.)
