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.

We just saw American Splendor and it was fucking awesome.
The Flick Filosopher has an entertaining review of The Island. She's definitely a Sean Bean fangirl ("Frankly, Sean Bean could have done with some fetishizing here, too, but he is the villain after all, and I suppose that cars bursting into flame are morality neutral and hence appropriate for fetishizing while it would simply be wrong to visually worship bad guys. Except... it's Sean Bean!), and in fact, appreciates all the pretty:
For an action movie, The Island really is like a supermodel convention, as Handsome Dr. Evil (Bean: National Treasure, Troy) hires Beautiful Mercenary (Djimon Hounsou: Beauty Shop, Constantine) to retrieve Gorgeous Rebel (McGregor) and Even More Gorgeous Tagalong Movie Girl With Nothing To Do But Look Fabulous (Johansson).
Huh. I actually don't think of Ewan as gorgeous. He's sexy as hell, but it's mostly personality—I'd say at best he's goodlooking in an odd sort of way.
Speaking of Alexis Denisof, but only peripherally, I read an interview with J. August Richards two-three years ago in which he said he would love to be the first black James Bond. Take that for what you will.
