Is Children of Men gory at all?
It's violent, but not gory.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Thanks, Jessica.

Kathy, there are far too many people there who think the wrong side lost that trial...
There are a lot of evolution supporters now in Dayton, TN? Despite the stirring and cogent defense, as in the movie, Scopes lost.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good lord, I'm an idiot. You're quite right, Sean. @@ I knew that, I swear I did.

It's wishful thinking, really, is what it is.

Emmett and I just got back from watching Casino Royale.
The first time Daniel Craig showed up in a tuxedo Emmett leaned over and whispered, "Now he really looks like James Bond."

Now tagless for your comfort.

Smart kid, Emmett.

I think i'm going to attempt to do the whole "100 movies in 2007" thing that everyone seems to be embracing in livejournal land. it's started off pretty well.
i've seen Night at the Museum, which is cute fun. Children of Men, which i suppose is supposed to be somewhat uplifting but left me feeling extremely sad and hope i don't live to see something like that happen. and today i watched Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. twice. HI-larious. then again, i love Robert Downey Jr and would watch pretty much anything with him in it.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
I watched Children of Men over the weekend. I loved it to bits, and find myself hard-pressed to amass adequate words to express how much I loved it. Afterward, it was the little things that stuck with me, like the ongoing thing with Theo's poor feet (the guy in the camp who brought Theo the sneakers was made immediately sympathetic because of the gesture) and the way Cuaron used animals, running loose and wild in the world without children. I loved that all manner of cats and dogs tended to flock to Theo for some reason. That was a lovely little touch.)
The cinematography was stunning, and my, what a group of terrific actors. And the girl who played Kee held her own against Clive Owen and Pam Ferris. I loved her.
