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.

Don't know why...have some of these on video, but if they are on TV I watch them, too Oh, and "Corrina, Corrina" I also, JZ, don't know why "Fools Rush In" got a reputation for such devastating badness...is not amazing art, but I have totally seen worse. And I think MP is really cute. But maybe he had me at "Gum would be *perfection*"

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

the adventures of a temperamental mer-man

Was that the part that got you going, Debet? Because man, a phrase that would sink a thousand audiences, that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He's not temperamental. He's pissy. And scantily clad.

Why didn't Victor Webster get the role? No offense, but I'd rather see him shirtless and wet for an hour and a half.

Or however long it took.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Movies I've seen a trillion times:

  • Wizard of Oz (childhood yearly viewings)
  • Grease 2 (my cousin and I loved this as kids and it was replayed over and over on HBO that summer)
  • Pollyanna (see above but replace HBO with The Disney Channel. I loved Hailey Mills when I was young)
  • Nightmare on Elm Street (I was hugely into this at about 14)

Movie I saw the most times in the theater

  • Hedwig and the Angry Inch (8 times in the theater - still an absolute fave)

Movies I've watched many times as an adult

  • Bringing Up Baby
  • Philadelphia Story
  • Casablanca
  • Donnie Darko
  • Ghost World
  • Mulholland Drive
  • Spirited Away
  • Raising Arizona

Compassionately intolerant

Oh, right. Add the BBC/A&E Pride and Prejudice to my list.

Ditto! Several times a year.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Who knew the mild-mannered cuckoo clock could evolve into such a gruesome object? Fans of the Stanley Kubrick film The Shining will adore this takeoff on the innocent pop-out clock, where every hour Jack Nicholson's crazed face pops through the door, yelling "Here's Johnny!" as Shelley Duvall screams in terror.
