Mal ,'Objects In Space'
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.
Wait, that conversation was happening in movies? Huh.
The thing about watching Kinsey is that I'm just familiar enough with IU that there were names that I knew. As well as being familiar with the (existence of) the Kinsey Library (Large collection of illegal porn was the gist of the factoid I was given)
Yay--Iron Man is hitting the bargain theater near me this weekend, so I'm finally going to be able to see it. Maybe next Monday or Tuesday night after work--IIRC, those are $1 nights.
Okay, my Watchman luv just...
Well, look, if you were around when the Watchmen comic was a few months from release, they teased the comic with a bunch of ads, each one featuring one of the characters.
They just redid those ads for the movies - [link]
Wonderful.

Oh. My. God.
I think I'm gonna cry, it's so good.
I'm happy to bring a joyful tear in to MM's life.
And then, explosions. And death rays. Natch.
oooOOOooo....
I think slashdot sums up my feeling: reluctantly optimistic.

I was just coming in here to post that

I gotta admit, I got a little choked up over here. I have never been this excited about a movie before. Not even Order of the Phoenix.
Having just read the EW Watchmen cover story, my main concern is that ALL the actors are, as usual, way the fuck too young for their characters. By at least 10 years.
But I do love those posters.
Jessica, the director picked young actors because the story takes place over a number of decades and paraphrasing the director - "it's easier to make an actor look older than younger".
"it's easier to make an actor look older than younger".
Ok, fair point. But I'm skeptical of a twenty-something actor's ability to bring the appropriate emotional baggage necessary for most of the story's "present day" action. It's hard to portray a midlife crisis when you haven't had a middle age.
