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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
We wound up Instant Watching Metropolis in addition to the restored version of the 1927 film.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Ok. Megamind was a lot of fun. Fantastic way to spend a non-school day with Em, Joe, and Em's "boyfriend" and his mom.

I saw it with Emmett and Matilda over the weekend and we enjoyed it. Might've liked the similarly themed Despicable Me better, though.
