So. Movie Teen Kitty.
Evan Rachel Wood?
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey. New board.
The only thing I know about Katie is she was cute as Kitty in X2, and had a couple of funny lines in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I liked her a lot in her little role there, so I'm not at all opposed to her continuing the role of Kitty, but it sadly doesn't look likely. They seem to want somebody with at least a little more of a name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Has anyone heard anything about Dark Water? A horror movie with a cast full of Actors?

Hey. New board.

The trailer is pretty cool in the has-a-creepy-kid-and-a-creepy-old-man-and-a-famous-actress sort of way. It's yet another remake of a japanese horror, which I haven't seen though I've had a downloaded copy for a while.
I'm interested in it, but not obsessively so.

Last night, I watched a very fun netflix doc. about Scrabble tournaments called Word Wars...I thought I'd recommend it to Buffistas. Did you know there's money in Scrabble? I didn't.(I'm not as good as those guys, though.)

The creator of the original (and Ringu), Hideo Nakata, is responsible for the Americanized version. I've seen the original story, which was pretty compelling though it obviously drew from some of the same motifs that Ringu did. The cinematography in the remake looks breathtaking, and Jennifer Connely is a much more talented actress than her Japanese counterpart, but images from the trailer make me think they may have introduced a change in the plot that will make the most frightening and poignant part play very differently if it's included at all.

After watching Phil make a living at Backgammon for 10 years, I am not surprised.

Not quite "living" money, but big prize on a game show money.(I wouldn't trade places with the winner for anything though...he's kind of sad and has a raging gastric disorder of some type, but it does make me want to dust off my game some.) Especially since they all said women are not competitors.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Jess said what I was going to say. Also, I think I may have to change my tag to compliment hers now.
Psst! Sean, while it's possible Brain may have said "thinking" at some point, his verb of choice was "pondering".
With the crowds, and the commercials
Yes. This. Nothing like being forced to watch commercials without the recourse of changing the channel or hitting mute. Couple that with the increasing obnoxiousness of movie goers (talking back to the movie, talking to each other, talking on their cell phone, etc, people with small children who scream for 30 minutes straight but their parents never once consider taking them out of the theatre until they calm down) and it makes for a miserable experience. I think I have contemplated taking the life of a fellow human being more often in a movie theatre than in all the moments outside of a theatre put together. Special Hell, indeed.
I still go see movies in the theatre (and I never download them) but it's only stuff I really want to see right away and that having on the big screen improves the experience. Stuff I'm less excited about and/or doesn't have a lot of action/sweeping cinematagrophy waits until it's on DVD or cable.
I watch them better in the theatre.
This isn't me. I have no problems focusing on a movie at home, though being able to pause and go do something is nice. The only movie I might have watched all the way through if I'd seen it in the theatre instead of at home is "Being John Malkovich". I have never gotten up and walked out of a theatre, so I probably would have stuck with it until the end. At home on cable, I turned it off after a half-hour when I realized I absolutely hated every single one of the characters and watching it any longer would simply enrage me. Which was disappointing since I had been really interested in seeing it.
