You know, there could be a wormhole that brings Laika back.
Or you know. . . she could be the Queen Bitch of the Zombie Dogs from Outer Space.
Wait. People? She eats people? 'To Serve Man.' It's 'To Serve Man' all over again.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I still don't get it.
Total random in joke. Quentin was supposed to see "Au Revoir..." on a date, but came out with a statement along the lines of "I don't wanna see no Reservoir Dogs", and I think he just filed the phrase away as enigmatic.

Your tag here.
Regarding WotW, I am tommyrot. Aside from a big gaping plot hole (well, at least one), the movie was generally fun.

I think this is my favorite penny arcade comic ever.
It's certainly in my top ten, if not top five. I only wish their damn keyword search worked properly so I could find it more easily.

Just do a Wiki search for Twisp and Catsby like normal folk. Wikipedia has made many site-internal boolean searches redundant.

Sumi, can I tag this, only, switch out Laika for MEMEMEME? I'm feeling rather cranky today.

Hey. New board.
Hmm. I'm reading reviews that are saying WotW is not a simple destruction movie, or a straight sci-fi thriller, but a sci-fi horror in the vein of Alien. I love horror.
This is making me want to watch it much, much more than I wanted to watch it before.
Confirmations? Contradictions?

Gris, Seanan says it's horror too. And she knows horror.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Um.
I guess.

It's horror in the sense of characters hiding from the aliens, esp. the long scene in the basement with Tim Robbins.
I don't think that's a spoiler as it's very vague, but I whitefonted just in case.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I also saw someone describing it more as horror than straight sci-fi.
