There have been a superabundance of talking animal movies this summer. And that's with Pixar going automobile on us. What I've belatedly come to realize is that every studio has an animation unit now. It's not just Pixar, Disney and Dreamworks with a side of Aardman.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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.

How did I not know about Gypsy 83? What would I do without this board?
Lost Boys into The Crow into Sleepy Hollow flows better than ending with Corpse Bride or Mirrormask, I think.

Just how many fricking CGI funny animal movies have there been this year?
Way, way too many. I'm so damn tired of them.

Do all the wacky talkin' animal flicks share a particular song, such as "I Feel Good," "Walking on Sunshine," or "Hey Ya"?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Teacup Guy and I saw Little Miss Sunshine the other day and had a spoilery question: Is it realistic that the teenage boy would not know he was colorblind at the age of 16?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I could swear that I heard of someone who didn't find out until they were like 30. I may have heard this here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I seems really unlikely, but we had a hand-wave that he knew he was colorblind, but not that it would screw his chances of becoming a pilot. I realize that doesn't exactly work with what happened in the movie.
