I paid more attention to the "Librarian" part of that title--I'm guessing that it's the sequel to the so-cheesy-it's-great Noah Wyle TNT movie. As long as they have Bob Newhart kicking more bad-guy butt in this one, I'm definitely tuning in.

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, no mention of Bubba Nosferatu?
I just started watching Birth. It would be very wrong for me to be biased from the start because of Nicole Kidman's hair, right?
Let's start with David Mamet rewriting that TV minisieres with Phoebe Cates. What was it? Lace?

Why the hell did I watch Chronicles of Riddick? Why, oh, God, why? And how did they get Dame Judi Densch into it?

I finally saw Napoleon Dynamite. I would like to register an opinion of "Eh."
From IMDB:
Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman have signed to star in a second Batman movie, but love interest Katie Holmes has been dropped. Movie bosses are thrilled with the response to Batman Begins - it took $46.9 million in its first weekend at the US box office - and have snapped up the film's stars for a sequel. Bale as Batman was the first to put pen to paper, followed by Caine as butler Alfred and Freeman as Bruce Wayne's business associate Lucius Fox. But Holmes won't reprise her role as district attorney Rachel Dawes - reportedly because Warner Bros is angry her engagement to Tom Cruise has stolen media attention away from the movie. A source tells Pagesix.Com, "Everyone is in agreement that the movie's strength is with Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman." Adding of Holmes, "She won't be in the sequel... the next romantic interest will be a much stronger actress. Warner is happy that people are now focusing on who'll be playing the Joker rather than Katie and Tom."
They would've changed the actress anyway, according to Raq's Law of Fungible Actresses. You just can't have the same female love interest in two movies.
Back on Seabiscuit, one more quick rant that ties into the earlier discussion of recognizing where movie scenes were filmed: When the train is at the Albuquerque station, they got the station building right (my dad worked for the AT&SF in the Depression, so we've plenty of photos of that building) more or less. But the giant palm trees in the background? NSM.
