Spike ,'Showtime'
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.
I just saw Marathon Man. Damn! That's a great little thriller there. Never a dull moment, and it has the balls not to explain what the fuck is going on for over half the movie.
Also, for all these years I thought "Is it safe?" referred to the actual dentistry (based on the Gremlins II reference), when in fact the pronoun refers to an object.
The beauty of it is in how it's told. Really.
Yeah, that's what I was trying to say, in an addled way.
I started watching Cube. It's...odd.
It remains...odd.
But I liked it.
I'm watching All the President's Men, It's still a freaking great movie and we are enjoying shouting "Hey, it's Mark Felt" every time Deep Throat comes onscreen.
Dustin Hoffman totally installed my BJG button.
BJG?
Brainy Jewish Guy. Love them. I don't even mind going to the dentist as much as I should.

Oooh! Loved Cube. Nice low-budget Canuk horror. Also, from what I've heard, they only had three or four of those walls, so it was especially tricky shooting sequences where they were in one room and looking into the next.

You should be watching Numbers then and loving on David Krumholz.
