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 just need to start a kids' movie blog or something where I can rant about some of the things that drive me crazy with the movies Owen watches.
You totally should! Umm, not that you need even more to do. But you'd be fabulous at it, and the rants, they need a-ranting.
A friend of mine just started a parent rant blog. Sounds like a fit.
yeah I hate those stupid effing udders but Sophia is right, Barnyard's creators thought it would be funny.
Hey, Christopher Eccleston is going to play Amelia Earhart's navigator in the movie Amelia which stars Hilary Swank.
That's going to be filming in NS starting next week. I'll have to keep my eye out for the Doctor.
We'll expect regular reports.
and if that wasn't enough to drive the farmers nuts... from the imdb goofs page:
A tractor appears in various scenes. The rear tires on the tractor are on backwards - the tread for tractor tires is designed to push mud out away from the tire when rotating forwards, to keep the treads from filling with mud. These tires would pull mud into the tread, making the tire slick and useless in deep mud.
We'll expect regular reports.
I never see anyone. I went out trying to stalk Tim Roth a couple of weeks ago and I only found crew building a set.
Alan Rickman fans need to watch this trailer, or at least fast-forward for the last line.
It's Dreamworks in this case. And the funny thing is that there is a pregnant cow in the plot. She has her baby at the end of the film so there is a distinct difference between male and female cow characters.
i.e. Somebody fucked her.
Sophia is right, Barnyard's creators thought it would be funny.
Then in one particular case (mine), they failed because...TRANNY COW?!
I have nothing against trannies, but...TRANNY COW?!
How is that funny to kids? Eventually, they will learn enough about animal biology (and probably earlier than parents want to think) and go "Mommy...Daddy...WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK?!"
At which time the parents will have to say: "Well, child, the creators thought it would be funny. Let's move on to the subject of 'Hollywood = Insanity', shall we?"
In the end, I suppose everyone learns a valuable lesson, but I would be squicked beyond belief to see the Movie of the Week on that subject.
