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

sumi, I heard that rumor was debunked a few weeks ago. Or, since the story said they were chasing, I heard they weren't chasing anymore.

Megan, that was a pretty funny moment, and actually fairly subtly done. It's like "What is everyone laughing at?" and then you look more closely and see it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I saw Maria Full of Grace last night and was very impressed and moved. A heartbreaking and powerful story and told with a lot of immediacy. The lead actress totally deserved her Oscar nomination. I loved her character--complex and layered and brave and stubborn and thoughtful but still capable of making wrong decisions--one of the most real female characters I've seen in a long time.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I saw Constantine last night and enjoyed it. I may have a different opinion if I was familiar with the comic, but it was an entertaining two hours. There were a couple points where Keanu felt over-the-top but otherwise his performance didn't bug even if it wasn't spectacular.

P-C: While I haven't seen the movie in question, my best guess for what movie you were referring to would be The Prophecy with Christopher Walken.

My reaction was more along the lines of "wha? who woke me up! Oh, look what Keanu is doing. Zzzzzz"

Woe to the fucking wicked.

LJ, Netflix has Bringing Up Baby, so it's apparently out now.

Holiday, however, is not.

Apparently Tom Welling and Maggie Grace are going to be the leads in the new version of The Fog. I have no idea how that's going to turn out.

With me rooting for the murderous ghost pirates, for starters.
