Willow ,'First Date'
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.
Finally saw Hot Fuzz today. Best buddy cop movie in easily the last five years. (Also, when did Simon Pegg get hot? Or was he before and I didn't know about it?)
I've started watching a bit of 1776, and I can't get over the fact that Adams is played by a ridiculously young Principal Feeny (lately from Boy Meets World). Enjoyable so far, though...
No, Aille, you've got that wrong. Mr. Feeny is an old John Adams. You've got to get these things in the proper order.
It's kind of a thing in my family. I mean, I was named after one of the characters, historical figures, whatever...
Mr. Feeny is an old John Adams.
Well, ok, yeah. But still! I hearts me some Feeny from waaay back.
"Saltpeter! Pins!"
Dickinson makes me want to punch him in the head.
But he really was a formative leader in the original protests, even though he got cold feet when it came to declaring complete independence. And he did fight in the war, so he was a hero there, too.
And he totally breaks first. Even if he doesn't get his end done in anything like a timely way...
I have this desire to do a production that has Dickinson and the conservatives really likable and the revolutionaries be "obnoxious and disliked".
and the revolutionaries be "obnoxious and disliked".
I'm sorry, like John's not? Mind, I love John, but....
Just watched Dear Frankie. What a charming little movie.
I just saw a thing on the news about how ratatouille orders are up at French restaurants since the movie came out.
This just cracks me up because ratatouille is so not a "restaurant" dish. And the exact recipe is up for grabs, basically depending on how your family made it. However, purists generally agree that, no matter which veggies you use, the important thing is to cook each one separately.
when did Simon Pegg get hot?
In the months leading up to Hot Fuzz. He worked out a lot.
However, purists generally agree that, no matter which veggies you use, the important thing is to cook each one separately.
I assume you mean each vegetable, in quantity. Not, say, each piece of broccoli, individually steamed in a petite little steamer.
Too bad I won't ever get a Happy Meals toy with rats on it, though.
This? Sheer genius. KFC buckets would be funnier though.
