'Never Leave Me'
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.
What does this bit from The Editing Room mean?
NATALIE has her twins,the order of which creates a completely unnecessary continuity error for no reason other than the fact that DIRECTOR GEORGE LUCAS must really enjoy watching his obsessive fans rationalize obvious flaws. She DIES.
Saw Batman tonight, and I take back everything I said about Gotham being like Chicago, because DH was wrong, and it's not. It's very much its own city in this film (to a fault, at times -- the CGI aerials are distractingly fake).
The directing and performances are all fantastic. Katie Holmes is easily the weakest, but even she's not bad, just...she's Katie Holmes, and the rest of the cast is Christian Bale, Michael Caine, and Morgan Freeman.
The main thing that makes this movie so good is that, finally, it's a Batman film about Batman. The movie doesn't assume that you know who Bruce Wayne is going in, or that you know why he becomes Batman, or that you know what being Batman does to him.
And since this was a BAFTA screening, Christian Bale was there in person to introduce the film. OMGSOHOTT.

I am such a sucker for Welshmen.
Oh, fucking, dear.
Also, mmm.
Jess, this might be the most envious of you I have ever been.

Jess, this might be the most envious of you I have ever been.
Yep, likewise.
(However, I will state for the record right now if you manage to either meet Tim Burton OR get nifty loot from a Corpse Bride screening this fall, I will cry. Lots.)
GAH!
Yep. Want to be Jess now. Also, I've realized that Christian Bale is the only guy who could give Ewan a run for his M money in FCM.

Heh, my appreciation for how un-uptight Ewan is increased exponentially when he talked about what a good snog Bale is.
I think any game of FCM involving both Ewan and Christian Bale should include the option of them marrying each other.
Trying desperately not to die from the envy here too.
Lucky, lucky Jess.
