Mal ,'Heart Of Gold'
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.
Just saw RED. So much fun. And the bit at the end, with the little nuclear problem in Moldova, had me rolling with laughter. There is in fact quite the stash of old Soviet weaponry there, in the semi-autonomous and hostile region of Transnistria .
They should sell it in a two-pack with The Losers. I didn't realize the comics were by Warren Ellis, I might have to check them out.
Sylvester McCoy cast in The Hobbit. I wonder how he'll react to the news that his character's not in the book?
I watched Goodfellas today and thought it was great. I loved the storytelling, and it was fun to see Debi Mazar and Samuel L. Jackson in small roles. I wish Scorsese had used Karen as a second narrator more because when she first started narrating, I had a "Holy shit, this is awesome" moment, since I thought maybe the movie would keep switching perspectives.
First look at Dr. Seuss' The Lorax: the movie
Behold your very first look at the CG-animated whiskers of Dr. Seuss' Lorax, the curmudgeonly creature who speaks for the trees. Plus, it turns out the Lorax will be voiced by Danny DeVito!
Awww... who's a cute widdle CG-animated Lorax! You are! Yes you are!
I hear For Colored Girls sucks. I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed. I mean, Tyler Perry production. Still, great source material, and interesting cast. But...Tyler Perry.
"The Boondocks" has ruined Tyler Perry for me. Not that I was a fan before, but now I can't even keep a straight face when I hear the dude's name.
I love the Boondocks on Tyler Perry.
I know we have plenty of baseball fan buffistas so I present to you a baseball movie poll. I voted Eight Men Out.
