Although I think I might threadsuck the last two days and a) see exactly how many of them I can identify for sure, and b) compile them into a massive movie quote quiz.
I'd have to cull them first. Get it a little more manageable.
'Harm's Way'
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.

That would be cool.
A very Buffista movie -- Salon compares Oldboy to both Buffy and Kill Bill in the first paragraph.

I would so love that.
Cool, Sean. If you have trouble with any of my quotes, my profile address is good.
Oldboy is definitely one of the most screwed up mind fuk movies I've ever seen.
I'm glad I watched it :-)
Yay! Movie talk.
I saw "Sahara" last night. It was quite fun. Matthew McConaughey was pretty, and entertaining, Steve Zahn was super funny and great, Penelope Cruz didn't bother me, William H. Macy is in it, and there are camels! All in all, I recommend it. It was quite fun. Even though it ran for a little over two hours, I was entertained the entire time.

DH came home from the preview screening in a daze that lasted the better part of a week. I figure I'll see it on DVD, at home, where I can safely retreat into a fetal position during the squicksome bits without disturbing the other theatre patrons.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest - talks a little bit about which cast members from the first movie are coming back for the second.
Love this review of Miss Congeniality 2, especially the end:
The only thing that kept this thin, bland gruel of inconsequential characters, scrawny story, and feeble wit from heading straight to DVD is Sandra Bullock's name--her actual presence does nothing to elevate the proceedings. You can totally imagine Gracie running into other TV characters and not being able to hold her own against them. Like, say, Gil Grissom's nightshift CSI team, seeing as she is on their home turf, after all. Grissom would scowl a lot at her idiotic scatterbrainedness and say things like "I guess our federal friends really are so overextended with the war on terror that they've got to scrape the bottom of the barrel for ordinary kidnappings," and Catherine would scowl a lot and say things like "Oh, pul-leeze, as if that boa and those heels could make her fabulous." And Gracie's new partner, Sam Fuller (Regina King), could actually follow through on her threat--"I can't deal with her. I'll kill her. And I'll enjoy it."--and then, if we got lucky, Grissom and Catherine would get to see Gracie's decayed and mutilated body pulled from a dumpster behind a seedy rundown casino, or from a shallow desert grave where she'd be all desiccated and stuff.
