Video interview with Martin Laing - the production designer for T4:Salvation. (Includes some footage from the movie.)
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm having another of those "how the *&%$ did this end up in my queue?" moments. Is anyone familiar with Berlin Alexanderplatz? I thought it was going to be a comedy and for some reason I think I put it in my queue because a sitcom I watch now is based on it. Perhaps someone was messing with the audience in one of my DVD commentaries. I managed to slog through part 1 but I could find no sympathy for the protagonist. Is there any reason I should continue with it? Does the series continue to focus on Franz?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ha! My Netflix "why????" for the weekend was merely Graveyard Shift.

Is that the one with Ewan McGreggor? I really liked that one!

No! Maybe I thought it was. It was a dumb Stephen King movie with Brad Dourif as highlight.
I'm watching Bad Boys II now, and there are not words to describe how much I love this franchise. No, it's not quality cinema. But they can do power shots like nobody's business. Hell, that was half my delight with Hot Fuzz.

I said, I love Graveyard Shift! but then I realized I was thinking of Night Shift.
Bad Boys II
I wasn't totally sold on it until they started throwing corpses out of the truck to slow down their pursuers.

At least it was the bad guys doing it...

It was Nightwatch with Patricia Arquette that I was thinking of. Great flick. Suspense and thrills with a touch of gore.
I think what I loved most about that movie was how at the end the main character and his girl just let it all out with the horror and the fear. I like scary/creepy/gory movies where it isn't a Given that 99.7% of the characters will die. This one had a nice balance of the creeps and the actors belting out the fear (where I feel other top-billed actors are afraid to scream too much lest they scratch their vocal chords and make frown/laugh lines).
Nothing freaked me out more than the two trees outside the hospital wrapped in black plastic. I've always wondered if that was a happy accident (they were working with what was on site) or if that was set design.

Compassionately intolerant
watching Bad Boys II
Henry Rollins. My favorite stealth cameo. Always the SWAT commander, never the romantic lead.

I didn't even notice him.
I also watched Mulholland Drive today. Bleh.
