You know, if it were a SciFi Original Movie, it would be titled Mansheep.

Thrive to spite them
I soo want to see that!
I watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang the other night. Even though it's gotten great reviews and Buffistas loved it I almost didn't watch it. Which would have been a shame because it was such a good move. I really liked Robert Downey, Jr and also the actress.

We saw Zodiac last night. Boy, is that a long film. What's sad is that it FEELS long. Some Finchery touches, but not as showy as I expected. Despite some good performances (Robert Downey rocks and Mark Ruffalo is very good) I found it completely uninvolving.

Does Gyllenhaal take his shirt off at any point?

Nope. Nothing remotely sexy anywhere in the film with any character.

As much as I like the idea of Fincher doing a movie about the Zodiac, I've been a little leery of the film just because I know the details pretty well (having read Graysmith's book, among others) and the story of the Zodiac does not seem to lend itself well to a coherent narrative, since we ultimately don't know who it was or why he did it.
It also seems to not lend itself well to a moody pseudo-horror piece, which this film seems to be advertized as, since the Zodiac actually wasn't all that prolific a killer.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Playing a chained-up, half-naked nymphomaniac in her new movie Black Snake Moan helped Christina Ricci overcome her prudish nature, because now she parades around in her underwear all the time. The former child star had to face her fears of baring almost all for the film and decided the best way to get comfortable with revealing scenes was to wear nothing but lingerie at all times - even after cameras stopped rolling.
See, I read that on ImDb and am still trying to figure out what she means by it. Has Ricci really forgotten she appeared stark fucking naked in that "Prozac" movie, or is she simply trying to pretend it never happened and she never appeared stark fucking naked in anything?
