'Dirty Girls'
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.
"Do you have Prince Albert in the can?" was a fairly common question asked of shopkeepers and tobacconists. Phone pranksters used it so they could add, "Then let him out!" and hang up and giggle. IDEK, back in the early days of telephone kids made their own fun.
Not just the early days. I used to get that (and Peter Pan in a jar) as late as 1995.
it stood at attention all the time?
Um, random and unpredictable movement, I would think. Partial attention. Not seemly for a royal.
I think in his shoes I'd have opted for bucking fashion trends in favor of something more concealing rather than body modification.
from Wikipedia...
The Prince Albert piercing may have been practiced in European culture for some time, and while there are many tentative theories as to its origin, the true origin of this piercing is unknown. Many theories suggest that the piercing was used to secure the penis in some manner, rather than having a sexual or cultural purpose.[2]
In modern times, the Prince Albert piercing was popularized by Jim Ward in the early 1970s.[3] In West Hollywood (a gay village of Los Angeles), Ward met Doug Malloy and Fakir Musafar. Together, these men further developed the Prince Albert piercing. Perhaps more fatefully, Malloy published a pamphlet[4] in which he concocted fanciful histories of genital piercings in particular. These ersatz tales—which included the notion that Prince Albert invented the piercing that shares his name in order to tame the appearance of his large penis in tight trousers—are widely circulated as urban legend. No historical proof of their veracity has been located independent of Malloy's assertions.
Captain American trailer. He looks creepy skinny.
Why are there 3 different Snow White movies going into production right now?

I would find that question easier to answer if they were Goldilocks movies.
oh that's funny.
My dad and I watched Red today--very fun! I didn't know it was based on a DC comic, so all of those graphic-novel-based camera moves were a surprise for me.
Loved pretty much the entire cast. I'd forgotten that Brian Cox was in it, but as soon as he spoke, even before seeing his face, I knew immediately it was him. Loved Dame Helen, and, of course, being the fangirl of his that I am, I spent the entire film drooling over Karl Urban. What that man does for a suit...
I just watched Despicable Me, and it was all right. The kids were adorable, and the Minions were amusing, but I didn't find the movie superfunny. I'm sure it's great for kids, but it didn't seem to have as much for the older crowd. My vote for Supervillain Cartoon of 2010 goes to Megamind.
