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.

LOVED LOVED LOVED "Jack Jack Attack"

The clutch cargo cartoon was funnier -- especially with the commentary on.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

LOVED LOVED LOVED "Jack Jack Attack"

I'm right there with you! I was laughing so hard - the change in music from a waltz to the Mozart's Dies Irae just about killed me.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm going to have to stop at Target on my way home tonight, aren't I?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

A friend of mine bought The Incredibles yesterday at Circuit City and got an Incredibles basketball.(Ok, a mini basketball, but WANT!)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

The Onion's AV Club has a great series of interviews with the people behind the DVDs, including the senior VP in charge of Warner Home Video's classic films, a producer for Home Vision Entertainment (specializing in foreign and older cult films), and the founder of Something Weird Video, specializing in "quaint old smut."

Coolest thing I found out in the first interview was that Warner will be releasing the complete set of Astaire/Rogers RKO pictures by the end of the year, completely restored!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Did we already know about this?

Vin Diesel’s film production company One Race Films and animation house Blur Studio have partnered to build a multi-media franchise around Blur’s RockFish, the multiple award -winning animated short.

The project is envisioned as a feature length, family friendly film based on the character Sirus Kirk from RockFish that was created by writer/director Tim Miller. RockFish is a comic book-influenced, high adventure tale set on a barren planet in a distant corner of the galaxy. Sirus Kirk is a no-nonsense working man tasked with rounding up creatures that “swim” through rocks far below the planet’s surface and plague the miners who live and work there. The story starts out as just another day on the job for Kirk but quickly turns into a titanic struggle with the catch of his life.

I saw "Rockfish" in the most current edition of The Animation Show, which is playing various places around the country, and I liked it a lot. Not sure how it's going to translate into a feature, but I'm looking forward to it.

Compassionately intolerant

Gotta see RockFish but this...

creatures that “swim” through rocks far below the planet’

immediately sent me to a 'No Kill I' place with Hortas and spheroid eggs and "I'm a DOCTOR dammit, not a brick layer!"

Okay, I'm guessing DeForrest Kelly didn't actually say 'dammit', but that's how my memory works.

I was really quite pleasantly surprised by it, considering how little I liked Gopher Broke (which was...fine, just way too cute and broad to be Oscar-worthy, IMO).

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

How do I get to it, Tom?
