Helen Mirren is in the movie version of Inkheart. I haven't read the book but her character sounds cool.
I loved the book and didn't know they were making a movie! Thanks sumi.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Helen Mirren is in the movie version of Inkheart.
I like the actors involved in that project -- Paul Bettany and Andy Serkis and Brendon Fraser. Neat. Haven't read the book, but the synopsis sounds interesting indeed.
Plus, Iain Softley made two of my favourite flicks in the 90's -- the Beatles RPF "Backbeat" and a gorgeous adaptation of "The Wings of the Dove." Colour me cautiously hopeful.
I love that Mirren mentions "Excalibur" in that interview. I love that movie, all the way down to its chewy, epic, cheesy center.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's a good look for him.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I saw the trailer for that movie. It looks pretty cool.

Hmm. Just watched Near Dark. Why do we have to have happy endings? Or, really, why don't I get to decide what happy is?

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
just watched Pan's Labyrinth. it was okay, but i'm really starting to see that Oscar movies just really aren't my thing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
When, oh when, will they remake Hong Kong Phooey ?

He made 'The Skeleton Key' too, which I thought was great, thinking which makes me feel lonely.
