'Safe'
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.
See, I always like to think that the next line, after "Where the devil of my slippers?" is "I don't know, Henry, why don't you get your lazy arse off the couch and find them yourself? I'll be sitting over there, ready for you to discover the difference between 'woman you love' and 'well-trained puppy.'"
I can't see any reason their relationship would stop being built on arguments just because she comes back to him.
All y'all "Deadwood" partisans can doblerize on the mission a bit now...I should get some (eps) tomorrow. Leaving a little time between too in case I need translations, like in my "Wire"-newbie days. Between the cornerspeak, cop talk, and legal chat, I used to get lost. Now, I think Simonverse dialogue is the total bomb, if not quite fun for the whole family ETA: If you get me to like a Western, though, you'll accomplish something quite radical, but I trust my invisible bunkies not to burn me.

And I can't see any reason that he'd ever become aware that she's a woman and not a puppy, especially when she comes back to him. A man like that is not high on the emotional intelligence scale.
Whoa. Those X3 pics reveal a...surprisingly...ripped Ben Foster. Huh. My cutie crush from Liberty Heights goes all washboard. Again, I say...huh.
I've not yet seen a pic of Ben Foster that convinces me. I need to see his face.
I know of one guy who auditioned and didn't get the role, but would have made a good match to the pictures in my head for the comics.
(sidenote -- I wish Wendy Hiller was remembered more - she was one tough actress and my definitive Eliza Doolittle.)
Amen. Even with the few lines she gets as the ancient Russian countess in Murder on the Orient Express, she really nails the role in her interrogation scene with Poirot. Also, she stars in my all-time favorite romantic comedy, I Know Where I'm Going.

Seriously.
He seems to have crossed some mystical maturity threshold...immediately following Northfork his imdb pics are unrecognizable to me. And not in a bad way, unless bad equals rawr vs. awww.
His IMDB pictures are actively unattractive to me.
I'm clearly blinded by long-stainding woob.
I watched Equilibrium Saturday. It was much better than I expected, for some reason I had it in my head that it would be really really horrible and I would have to suffer through it for Christian Bale (and Sean Bean).
But I was pleasantly surprised. The beginning is kind of pretenious and off putting, but the Bale is wonderful, so is what's her name the chick. Plus it had That Guy from As The Worlds Turn - whose character had one of those stupid "it wasn't rape, okay maybe but look! he's good and they are in love!" story lines.
The fight scenes were really well done. I wish I'd had a chance to watch the commentaries, but I checked it out from the library and then waited until the day it was due to watch.
