'Not Fade Away'
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.
Kevin! Guru of viral marketing! Tell us about Cloverfield.

I'm about to go see Transformers, and I'm almost as excited to see the Cloverfield trailer (clearly, not on YouTube) as I am to see the movie.
I just put in Latter Days with no idea what it was about or why I put it in my Netflix queue. It opened with a most awesome sex scene and then in the next scene there was Amber Benson! I still don't recall why I put it in the queue.
Hey Joseph Gordon-Levitt's in it too!
That was a good one. Trashy, but good.
Trashy but good oughtta be its own genre.
Just saw Ratatouille.
Lovely, fun, beautifully made film. I loved it as much as the 4-year-old and 9-year-old we went with, who were both completely captivated for the whole movie.
I gotta say I disagree on the trashy in re: Latter Days. I thought it was the sweetest love story since Brokeback Mountain.
Transformers was awesome! There were giant robots transforming into things and then transforming into robots! It was totally sweet! The plot was nonsense, as it was written by Alias writers, but that's not the point. Giant robots! Beating the crap out of each other! Things blowing up! Woooo!!!
Also, the Cloverfield trailer was a thousand times better in the theater. Wow. I'm really excited for it now.
The plot was nonsense, as it was written by Alias writers, but that's not the point.
If only I'd kept that in mind back when Lost first began to air.
Did we already know there is a remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still in pre-production? I'm in the "it'll suck major dog balls" camp. [link]
