PS, this thread has earwormed me with the Totoro theme. It's so bouncy!
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Totoro To-tor-o!
Agreed on Penelope's hotness. GF said, "THAT was a butt pad??" Pretty nuts!

It is my dearest wish that she remain in Spain eating paella until her real butt looks that good. Hollywood is just plain bad for her.

Seriously. I wonder that she doesn't see herself on-screen in this film and go, "Dayumn! I look GOOD! Eff this Hollywood anorexic crap."

At least Salma Hayek appears to have said just that.

Mmmmm, Salma. When is the Penelope/Salma cowgirl movie coming? And can they please make out in it? Please?

I loved the spate of awards shows this year where there'd be a dozen indistinguishable blonde skeletons in champagne dresses (or umbrella sleeves, whichever) and then Salma rocking a brilliant red or turquoise dress.

Compassionately intolerant
Salma rocking a brilliant red or turquoise dress
Proof of divinity, I tell ya.
I even watched that craptastic Brosnan/Harrelson/Cheatle flick because Salma was in it. Oh, no wait...I bought that craptastic flick.

We ordered a big stuffed Totoro right after watching the movie. He's very cute and watches over the den.

I loved My Friend Totoro. And my former manager used to swear by it. His older son was into zombies and the like, while his younger son couldn't stand anything with blood. This was one movie that had both of them transfixed. It's beautiful, and rich, and gentle, and I never once knew where it was going. But once I got there the plot made perfect sense.
