Okay, this is cracking me up. (I didn't even know you could leave comments on Rotten Tomatoes! But apparently DH has a secret vendetta against Edward Norton that I was previously unaware of.)

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

And, Jess, we know who wins here. @@

Hey. New board.
I'll stand by my "Mission to Mars is brilliant satire" stance, but since I haven't seen it since it was in theatres I can't do much to defend it except cross my arms and pout defiantly.
I have a friend who is currently using this stance on Speed Racer. So much so that I may overcome negative reviews and see it.

Finally made it to Mother of Tears (last night of a one week run). Haven't quite processed yet. Will post more later (though I don't know who will be interested - I'm not sure if even Suspiria fans will want to see it). I'm actually on the positive side of the spectrum with it, but there were...issues (and I'm not talking about the extreme violence against women stuff - with Dario Argento, that's a given, along with extreme violence against men, children, reality, etc.). All I'll say right now is I agree with the online reviewer who summed it up as "bloody as fuck!".

Sort of amusing (and spoilery) review of Hulk in the Guardian.
I don't think this bit is spoilery, but I'll whitefont anyway.
"Basic problem ... critic not believe Hulk angry. Hulk just roar.It not look convincing. Not truly seem angry. Critic think about this. Critic decide why. It because Hulk not swear. Hulk just say: "Hulk. Smash" etc. If Hulk shout C-word ... different matter. Then Hulk look angry. Sound angry. Not here. Hulk genteel."

Hah, Jars, I was just coming here to post that!
Review funny.
Edit: the review of "The Happening" is a classic too. Example:
Perhaps Shyamalan wanted to be a 21st-century George A Romero. Instead I'm afraid he is turning into Ed Wood Jr.

I think "Hulk genteel" is my favourite line...
