I love MaC. It does a wonderful job of making the complex society of the ship clear in the middle of the whole adventure plot.

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.
Alonso Duralde says that Seven Pounds is "the longest, most dour episode of “My Name is Earl” imaginable."
Hee.
I love My Name Is Earl. Didn't expect to, but I do. But it's totally the right choice to play it for laughs.
I still adore it, especially because they do long-form plot developments and have a large cast of semi-regulars like Patty the Daytime Hooker, and Willie The One-Eyed Mailman (who is played by "Randy"'s real life father.)
The home video department just had a screening of the new Wallace & Gromit short downstairs over lunch, and I can confidently report that it is AWESOME. Unfortunately I have no idea when it will be released in the States.
I am so ready for a new W&G! I didn't even know one was coming, so that's serendipitous.
I need a copy of Wererabbit.
I watched The Nativity Story last night. It was mostly boring. I saw such great things from Keisha Castle Hughes in Whale Rider but here she seemed to be only stone-faced Mary. It didn't feel like a Catherine Hardwicke movie either. It felt like something from ABC family. For goodness sakes, they didn't even call the ass an ass. They kept referring to it as "the animal."
Apologies if this was already posted on Box Set or Natter(where I'm woefully behind) but RIP Majel Barrett Roddenberry: [link]
Oatmeal:
The article mentions she just finished up recording the computer voice for the new Star Trek. I truly hope that movie doesn't suck. It would be far more fitting for her final contribution to the franchise to be it's true rebirth.
