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.
Joss is doing Wonder Woman.
I'm just sayin'.
Hee.
I just came to post the same thing.
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
As if I needed more reasons to dislike Mel Gibson... [link]
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.
Joss is doing Wonder Woman.
How do we start lobbying him to cast Gina Torres in the lead.
Well, since he's worked with her before, I doubt he'll be that tough to convince. We'll mostly have to worry about convincing the suits at whichever studio to agree to it.
