Is there a term for a nasal spit-take?
Whatever it is, just don't tell Lee, juliana, Megan Walker, Sparky, or vwbug.

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.

Pretty sure it's called A Suzy.
Heh. I've heard it called snorking.
My, my, my.
Just finished watching Lost Souls (2000) with Ben Chaplin and Winona Ryder. It's one of the most consistently bad movies I've seen. It was so clear what just about every scene was trying to do, and how surely it was failing. A bit of The Omen, a bit of Rosemary's Baby but really nothing of either, because it had no style or darkness. Visually obviously shortchanging you, because the sets themselves looked great, but like they could have been filmed better. Blocking was strangled, jammed up the movement and the eyelines of the conversations. The plot had pacing problems, and even bigger plausibility ones.
Remarkably stinky. I was wondering how Winona Ryder paid her rent--I guess I should have been wondering how she slept nights, with this on her conscience.
I think I own that movie. Bought it for way cheap when Wherehouse Music went out of business. I might not have it anymore, but I haven't exactly looked for it. I think I watched it all the way through...
I wish Netflix forced you to say why you added anything to the queue. Can't work out this one. At least Grave of the Fireflies is next.
Run away, ita!
Unless you like dark, depressing, bleak and joyless and eventually pointless (At least that's what I went away with, but the movie also was nothing like what I was expecting).
I want to like Ben Chaplin, but he doesn't make very good movies.
At least Grave of the Fireflies is next.
Oh, god.
Went to American Gangster last night. Very good movie. It's a little too long and takes itself a little too seriously to be great, but definitely worth seeing. denzel is looking goooooood and he underplays really well.
Okay. I'm halfway through Grave of the Fireflies. Should I really give the rest a pass? It's certainly sad and haunting so far, but not so compelling that I'll feel empty leaving it here.
