Ikiru on our snow day today (well, it's ice, but you get the gist). Beautiful, heartbreaking stuff. My wife said that one is now in her top five movies.
Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'
That Geico parody still fakes me out. Every. Single. Time.
Is the music used the theme to Doctor WHo?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yeah, when I saw that in the theater the music made me feel uncharacteristically optimistic about the movie.
Please tell me that the vibe between Kong and Ann Darrow isn't as squicky in this film as in the Jessica Lang version.

Hey. New board.
I think the movie will be good. I just wish Brian Singer had stayed on X instead, because, more interesting. To m. Personally.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I figure Singer leaving for Superman Returns will mean two comic book movies I don't love.
I mean, I haven't seen a still or character shot from Superman Returns that's excited me, or at least made me feel all was right with the franchise. Brandon looks cheesier than Christopher, cheesier than Dean, and although it's fairly likely he can act better than Tom, he still looks less Super.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
psst. the real reason Superman changes clothes in phone booths is that he's an exhibitionist....

At the speed he does it, must be angling to show off to Jessie Quick or Mary Marvel then.
