'Serenity'
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.
I finally got around to watching Little Miss Sunshine yesterday, finishing up late at night. Oh my God, when Olive started her talent routine to "Superfreak" I couldn't stop laughing.
It was very odd to realize that the movie was basically a better-executed National Lampoon's Vacation with the Little Miss Sunshine pageant substituting for Wallyworld.

This is *EXACTLY* how I've been describing it to people!
I've heard nothing but fabulous things about Lives of Others -- Hopefully it'll make it to this neighborhood some time in the next couple of months.
The only major disappointment for me was Children of Men not winning anything. God knows I loved Pan's Labyrinth, but I really thought that Best Cinematography Oscar should have gone to Emmanuel Lubezki.
Prettiest presenters on the podium: Clive Owen and Cate Blanchett. It seems like a criminal waste of an opportunity that these two haven't made a movie together yet.

They're in the sequel to Elizabeth together.
And I think I remember that Cate was offered Julia's part in Closer , but then she got pregnant and declined.

Hell yes. I was really surprised at that one.
I wish they'd had Clive Owen and Daniel Craig present together, but they probably didn't want to risk the podium spontaneously combusting.
They should have presented and then made out.
Um..I'll be in my bunk.
My dad and I went to see Casino Royale on Saturday, and I was surprised at how smoking hot I found Daniel Craig. Usually, big ears on a guy are a big turn-off for me, but on him? Yummmmmy!
They should have presented and then made out.
Or the other way around. Or they could skip the presenting part altogether. Either way.
Heh. This was juliana during the watch'n'mock:
[Daniel Craig appears onscreen]
juliana: Oh, dear God. Clive Owen is lickable!
[Clive Owen appears onscreen]
juliana: Daniel Craig needs to call me.
Us: No, that's Clive.
juliana: Both of them!
They're in the sequel to Elizabeth together.
Oooh. *goes off to check* Owen's playing Sir Walter Raleigh. That means there is at least some small chance for us to see those two make out in the movie, right? Wasn't he Elizabeth's particular favourite?
