Oz ,'Same Time, Same Place'
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.
lisah,
some people have used netflix profiles to have queues with different genres or types of media - e.g. one profile for tv DVDs and one for films; one for scifi/fantasy and one for comedies.

I'm thrilled Netflix changed their minds, but man it caused agita in the Le Nubian household.
I used one profile for work and another for play. I still would like to have the option to delete the extra profiles though.
I just got back from The Incredible Hulk, and enjoyed it much more than I was expecting to. Norton convinced me he was Bruce Banner in a way that Eric Bana never managed, Liv Tyler surprised me by making me like her Betty Ross more than Jennifer Connolly's, and the plot was actually both coherent and entertaining. The cinematography isn't breathtaking like the Ang Lee version, but it's servicable and the CGI character design is much better, verging on being convincing in some scenes.
First 5 minutes of the Dark Knight I hope.
ETA: It doesn't say so but nothing comes up so I guess they've had to take the clip down.
Best scathing review of a Will Smith movie ever: [link]
Heh.
On edit: I should warn you, it spoils Hancock something awful.
I'ma not read it, I don't want to be spoiled. But Willie Waffle only gave it two waffles! It's Will Smith! Put him on film and take his shirt off and that's at least three waffles right there! Uh, bad reviewers, no biscuit.
I saw Hancock today, and that review is not far from wrong. I don't feel that level of hatred, but the points he picks...yeah, not wrong.
My love of Will Smith allowed me to handwave a lot of that away. I mean, how often do you get a drunk, rude, super hero Fresh Prince?
We saw WALL*E today. I did, much like Jessica, spend most of the movie with my hands pressed to my face and trying not to squeeeeee out loud. It was fantastic. And oh, Pixar! You have made my favorite short cartoon ever. Ever, ever, ever.
Hee, Jilli. I got the impression someone at Pixar had played a lot of Portal.
Ha! I didn't even make that connection, PC. I was too busy going "Bunny! Awwww, bunny! Oooh, top hat! Bunny!" Clovis is going to love it.
