'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
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.
Love the abridged GoF!
MIKE NEWELL: Okay Daniel Radcliffe, now, we all know about the dreaded 'He was their friend!' fiasco of Prisoner of Azkaban. We all know about the time Chris Columbus suggested you employ more than four facial expressions during a film and reduced you to a state of near-terminal confusion. But here's an idea. Throw yourself on the body of an attractive young thing and look utterly distraught!
HARRY: Nooooo! Why?
MIKE NEWELL: By Jove, I think he's got it!
More...
DUMBLEDORE: And now the brave sons of Middle Ear... er, Durmstrang.
BRAVE SONS: We have GREAT BIG ENORMOUS sticks we're going to PLAY WITH.
MIKE NEWELL: Watched the Cuaron film. Watched and learned.
Bwahahaha!
Ohta: Unfortunately, Kong has destroyed a good deal of the kitchen stadium subduing his sandowrm. He and Godzilla have both stoped cooking and are battling each other.

And something neither one, living on an Island, would ever see.
Well...unless you count the swamp worms, which looked EXACTLY LIKE THEM.]
The worst films of 2005 you should totally see anyway >[link]
I question the sanity of anyone who has seen more than one Uwe Boll movie.
Ouch.
“Memoirs of A Geisha” — Costumes? Check. Beautiful sets? Check. Actors with countless hours of dialect coaching under their kimonos? Check. Okay, let’s get that “Showgirls” script and we’ll change the dates, location and race of the women. Now, where’s our Academy Award nomination? Why you should see it anyway: Because you never knew that a P.F. Chang’s vision of “Oriental” would make this kind of cultural comeback. And when “Showgirls” made its bow in the mid 1990s, no one could have predicted it would become the cult phenomenon it is today. Seeing this now will guarantee you a spot on that future-camp bandwagon.
Heheheheheh:
I know the scene where Racism pushes Sandra Bullock down a flight of stairs deserves some kind of award.
So, we went to see Kong.
Good lord that was a long movie.
Peter Jackson wouldn't know a tight edit if it picked him up, tossed him in the air, caught him with its foot, and then flung him against a wall.
Andy and Naomi were amazing.
But there were several times when I said t River voice Doesn't make sense.
Yup.
Andy and Naomi were amazing.
But this. You know when I cried? On the frozen pond. And I think actually from that point on.
Jackson's kids were in there, again, too.
