And wasted Jason Statham and Jet li, what the hell.
I think this is a crime in some countries.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

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!
Heh, the Wes Anderson one is pretty spot-on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I prefer Wes Anderson's Spider-Man.

Considering the success of the Edwardian Ball, the upcoming Tim Burton Ball, and the Lebowski Fests, I bet a Wes Anderson event would go over boffo. People could dress as characters, Hayden's old Kinks cover band could play, there could be performances by Max's Rushmore Academy Players, board games, go-kart racing and radio controlled planes. And, of course, a giant game of Whack Bat.
A few years ago in North Beach, right around Halloween, I saw a bunch of Coppola interns go sprinting up the street in Team Zissou costumes.
OTOH, there's a pretty strong Wes Anderson Costume backlash.

Argh, taunt me about this some more, why don't you? There is no way I can manage to go to it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Just watched The King's Speech. Loved it. Cried like a baby. Still find it oddly weird to watch HBC act. Not sure why that stays with me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I finally saw The Fighter, and I liked it a lot. I do think people from other places don't know quite how tragic calling someone "The Pride of Lowell" is. Also, on the most minor of notes, I loved Amy Adams's body. And how much like the real guys Marky Mark and Christian Bale actually look.
