or more Carpenter, They Live has a funny 20-minute fight with two muscled guys trying to get each other to put on sunglasses.
Best. Fight scene. Evar.
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
And so many great cheesy quotes, too:
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

Now tagless for your comfort.

This is DH's FAVORITE movie line. Ever.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Oooh. I just found out that Toby Stephens (a fetching young red-haired actor of British TV and movies) is Dame Maggie Smith's son. I think I have my mental Bill Weasley cast. Plus, his mum's in the flicks already, so it shouldn't be much of a hassle to get him to sign on.

Vonnie, if you've seen Branagh's Henry V, you've seen Toby's dad. Robert Stephens, an acclaimed Shakespearian actor of the 1960s and at the time considered on the same level as Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole until he crawled into a bottle for most of the 1970s, played Aged Pistol in that movie.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
It's been years since I've seen Branagh's Henry V so I don't recall him very well, but this photo of the presumably young Robert Stephens doesn't resemble Toby that much other than the same impression of lanky physicality.
Great Shakespearian actors and the affinity to bottle seem to go hand-in-hand.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I saw Capote over the weekend. I really liked it, which surprised me since I really don't like Philip Seymour Hoffman. He was great in this, which was no small feat considering the schtick he had to employ. Great job. Catherine Keener (the reason I went to the movie) was wonderful as usual.

Art Crawl!!!
Did you guys get the Netflix email about the class action suit settlement?
Apparently you get your account upgraded for free for one month?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I got that e-mail, haven't decided what to do yet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I got it too, and I won't actually watch one more movie a month, and I don't want Netflix to spend more money on me, so I won't bother.
