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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just saw Idlewild, and was really disappointed. It was fine, but just... not great. The music wasn't that impressive, the story was kind of all over the place, just eh. I would say it's a cable watcher -- a perfectly fine way to spend a couple of hours, but not for $11.
I will say that both the person I was with and some of the other people in the theater liked it a lot more than I did.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Damn, I had hoped that it would be awesome.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm going tonight. Tickets are already bought.

Oh, that sounds like it could have been a really good movie. It still may be enjoyable, at least for the music.

I think lowered expectations will be your friend, Robin.
The other thing I noticed was the "black" preview reel -- two movies set in Africa, two in prison, one with Denzel.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Too bad about Idlewild.
Just had a Very Canadian Movie Session w/M. Hard Core Logo and Men With Brooms. I quite liked HCL, and LOVED Men With Brooms. Just loved
