Whoohoo! I'm ready for more Hellboy, anytime.
It's a real burden being right so often.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
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's great. I enjoyed the first one.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I'm just going to throw this out here for Deadwood fans: Steve the Drunk is played by the same actor who played Xander's father.

No way. I can totally see it, now that you've mentioned it, but I would have never made that connection.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
That reminds me of my recent realizations that both Willy the Snitch and Whistler were on Homicide

I knew I'd seen him before, Corwood. Couldn't place him though.

I just saw Krrish. Any Bollywood fans interested in thoughts?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm interested, on general principles.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Pirates improves on a second viewing. Very rich text, actually, and the storylines and dialogue and arcs become more clear after you've absorbed the spectacle on the first viewing.
I suppose people are already talking about this elsewhere, but I haven't seen it here, but Tia Dalma has the same heart locket on her table that plays music for the Dutchman. And, of course, the motif on the front of the chest lock is also a heart. Also - get it - "dead man's chest" doubles for the Dutchman's own emotional state. Anyway, it seems likely that Tia Dalma may be the woman who broke the Dutchman's heart. Or at the very least, she knows that person since she has the locket.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I don't think that did come up here, Hec, but it certainly came up in Jilli's LJ, among others. Also, the notion that those wax-sealed letters were kept next to his heart in Davy's chest. Plus, the theme throughout of keys, locks and keys, and their implied opposite, freedom.
