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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Bwah! I find it very difficult to tell them apart.
They resemble each other very strongly, but I find I can distinguish them by my not feeling an urge to beat Eisenberg to a pulp with a lead pipe after three minutes of watching him.

So no Scott Pilgrim for Matt, obviously.

No, not being able to stomach the lead, plus gender and agency issues I've read about, plus Chris Evans appearing to be a combo of the most annoying and least attractive he's ever been in the preview, have convinced me this movie is Not My Beautiful Cake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
(Chris Evans was still kinda hot. But I get you on all the rest)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
ita, I found Zombieland entertaining. It isn't deep and there is a spectacular cameo in the latter 3rd of the movie that isn't to be missed.

Raq, have you seen The Prestige?
That's what Primer reminds me of...kinda.

Huh, I didn't think of that, but you're right. Both movies have endings that make you realize that you actually didn't even know what was going on in the movie you just watched.
