Mal ,'Safe'
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.
My heart bleeds for the chick:
Sexy actress Eva Green has slammed director Ridley Scott for removing most of the raunchy sex scene she had with screen hunk Orlando Bloom from new movie Kingdom of Heaven. Green enjoyed playing Bloom's lover Princess Sybilla in the film, but was devastated to discover Scott had deleted "the best bits" because he deemed them too shocking. She says, "It is a pity because we spent so long getting it just right."
"It is a pity because we spent so long getting it just right."
Oh, that poor poor girl, to have spent all that time making out with Orlando Bloom for nothing.
She sacrifices for her art, and look what happens!
So that she won't have to suffer any more, I will nobly volunteer to take her place at any future Orlando Bloom makeout sessions. I am just that selfless.
I don't have any art perse, but I'd gladly sacrifice my shoes and handbags.
So I'm 20 minutes into Phantom of the Opera. My first thought, if I were making a movie out of a famous musical, would have been to find people that could actually sing, since they're not only in a *musical*, but half of them are playing opera stars or Angels of Music.
This must be why they don't pay me the big bucks.
Yup.
Or, in the good old-fashioned Holllywood way, DUB WITH STUNT SINGERS. Really. All of us thank you.
Is the Christine bad? Or the men and Minnie?
The Phantom strains on the high notes instead of tossing them off effortlessly. Raoul is the only really competent one, as well as all the small roles.
Emmy Rossum isn't good?
