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.

How do I get to it, Tom?

On the 2nd disk, there's an Easter Egg on almost every menu page: If you wait 15-20 seconds, an Icon will appear in the top right hand corner of the screen, which is selectable. There's one on the 1st disk, on the commentary track menu page.

Back to Three Kings (since I'm assuming I'll be getting The Incredibles for my birthday I am showing great restraint and not buying it for myself NOW)...I just like the concept of the protagonists attempting to not make any ethical decisions and yet continually being forced into situations that demand ethical responses.

That, and the cut from Arabic industrial rock to "If you leave me now, you take away the biggest part of me...."

Last night's movie was Sherman's March. It was odd. It's a documentary framed loosely around Sherman's march through the South, but as he's filming it, the filmmaker turns it into a blog about his relationships (mostly failed) with Southern women. It was filmed in the early 80s and is great for the fashion and hair, but there's also a prevalent through-line of nuclear paranoia.

Again, I was told it was funny. I didn't find it funny, but I'm glad I watched it.

Okay, not in the same words.

It was the first bit of news I had this morning, and although it won't take away my insomnia and Tiredness of Doom, it does me feel much better about my day.

I may even have to open my WW Barbie and play with her, just to celebrate....;-D

There's a review of Sin City up at AICN--a bit spoilery, but if you've read the books (which I haven't) or are pretty familiar with the storyline (which I am), you're okay. Very positive review!!

I just like the concept of the protagonists attempting to not make any ethical decisions and yet continually being forced into situations that demand ethical responses.

I also very much liked the slo-mo gun fight, that was quite deliberate in showing that - this BANG, BANG, and BANG over here makes this hole, this hole, and this hole over here, killing this person dead.
