Dogme 95.
I have this recurring fantasy of kidnapping Steven Spielberg and forcing him to make a dogme-95-compliant film at gunpoint.
'Potential'
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.

Ooooh. Need a driver?
Hmm, dance naked to Iggy Pop? That's...huh. I don't think I'll be seeing that movie...
I almost went to see "Ice Princess" this weekend. Instead, we compromised on "Hitch". Which wasn't as bad as I'd feared it would be.
The funniest part is that he's got headphones on so the music isn't audible, and he's singing along under his breath off-key. Also, I think the curtains in that part of the house were somewhat lacking. I think he needed only a math final exam or a school play for the ultimate in humiliation-potential.
(The only person who catches him at it is his wife, and she takes it as a sign he is only 2 steps away from the loony bin. Which, he is.)

Think Christmas carolers.

Murders are superficial? Can I live in that universe, PLEASE?
Gus Van Sant may be directing the Time Travellor's Wife.
I saw City Hunter over the weekend. It's a Jackie Chan movie from 1992 and is a completely over-the-top action/comedy thing. Like over-the-top for even Jackie. It also has a bizzare musical number in the middle that at one point involves guys in biker leathers spinning around on their backs with sparklers strapped to their feet. Incredibly bizarre.
My cousin who brought it over wanted us to do a drinking game with it but we weren't feeling up to it. He was planning on giving us a choice of taking a shot any time the title of the movie was mentioned, everytime Jackie's character mentions or thinks about food or every time he hits on a woman. Any of the three would have gotten us well and truly drunk, while the first one probably would have sent someone to the hospital, so I'm glad we passed on that.
