You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Saw Hot Fuzz tonight and laughed myself sick! Holy crap, that was hysterical. Didn't hurt that one of the cop-movie tropes they send up is the buddy-cop bromance. (Also doesn't hurt that Simon Pegg is a total cutie.) But mostly, it was just awesomely funny. Thanks to everyone who recommended it here, since the trailer didn't really hook me, and I might have missed it were it not for you!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Seriously, this is the only movie Simon Pegg has ever been hot in. He took his action movie star role physique very seriously!

I saw Hot Fuzz tonight, and BLESS.
I want to draw pink sparkle hearts around it, hand it a pint of lager, and watch Point Break with it. (And none of that's exactly a spoiler, but it does ref the movie, so.)
I think this is love.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Saw Shaun of the Dead. Lots of fun. And continues to substantiate my over-general theory that British horror has the strangest sense of normalcy to it. Putting in those little rituals like tea or the after dinner drink makes things totally not as bad. When those get fucked up--well, then it's really horrific.

Hmm, Naomi Watts must be Narcissa. I'd still like to see Bob Hoskins as Slughorn.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Saw Hot Fuzz tonight, and was underwhelmed. It got a few chuckles from me, but most of my reactions were "Ah, I recognize that" or "Hmm, clever," or "Ah, tricky." I found it much less funny and far more gory than Shaun of the Dead. On the drive home, I was kinda wishing I had rented that instead.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I saw The Hoax and enjoyed it. It started a little, I dunno, not slow exactly but uninvolving. Once it got going, it had lots of interesting storytelling and like every Hallstrom film, wonderful performances. Not only was gere fab, I actually LIKED Marcia Gay Harden, who usually annoys me. Good stuff.
