'War Stories'
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.
I caught Legend of Billie Jean Davies last week, another childhood fave, and now I hate it. Fair is fair? WTF kinda message is that?
I don't know or care. That movie was all about Helen Slater watching that silent version of Joan of Arc and cutting her hair all butchy. I was not paying any attention to the rest of it.
Keanu fan rollcall? HERE!
Keanu is so ingratiating that even Joe Queenan did a nice article about him. Well, nice for Queenan.
I liked River's Edge & My Own Private Idaho. I just saw Speed recently and I think for some reason Keanu + blockbuster action movie = sleepytime for Strega.

That's the only part worth watching! It's not butchy, though. It's cute.
I like watching Point Break with the sound off, because it's the gayest movie EVAR. Does that count as being a Keanu fan?
Dude, without sound, you miss half the gay.
So, I've been seeing Get Smart posters all over town. Up until now, they've been the Carrell/Hathaway posters. I don't know how the movie will be. It will probably suck, but it might be good.
However, last night I saw a new poster -- Carrell/Hathaway, plus The Rock and Patrick Stewart.
Presumably Stewart will be playing Chief. Does this mean Rock is playing Hymie? 'Cuz that just might be made of at least little awesome.
I thought that Alan Arkin was playing the chief.
Huh. Scola's right. I was driving by the poster, and I only thought I saw Patrick Stewart on the poster. Must have been been Arkin, I guess.
The rest of the cast sounds pretty good, but there's a review (presumably from a preview screening) that kinda rips it apart. Oh well. I was expecting as much.
