I saw The Kids Are All Right with K-Bug and a friend of hers. The friend's parents are two women. She absolutely loved the movie. I liked it, but remembering how happy she was adds a few points too.
Mal: Zoe, why do I have a wife? Jayne: You got a wife? All I got is that dumbass stick sounds like its raining. How come you got a wife?

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.

Hey. New board.
I thought it was very good. I would have liked it with heterosexuals too. I thought every role was beautifully acted.
I also liked 127 hours a lot. I've now seen them all except winter's bone and the black swan.

tiggy, if you liked Franco, you might like him as much as I did in the James Dean bio. I think it was made for tv, but he was really great in it. So much so, I have felt that he hasn't acted as well in projects since, but I have not seen 127 hours.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Replace the couple in question with a heterosexual one and no one would even be talking about it.
I agree. On the other hand, I think that was kind of the point, you know? It's not a movie made for people living in the liberal bubble coast cities, so I could appreciate the subversion-through-normalcy thing even as I was kind of bored.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, I'm watching Eagle Eye on FX and I am wondering: is there any movie Shia LaBouf has been in in which his character does NOT have daddy issues?
It's striking how this is a theme in the 3-4 movies of his I've seen.

I don't think he does in the Transformers movies, but then again those scripts were about 90% stage directions for explosions or how much skin Megan Fox should show off in slow motion montages, so there probably wasn't room for anything like characterization.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am thinking about watching Transporter 2 on FX. I have not seen the first. Will I be lost?

You can't watch Transporter 2 first! It'll be like reading Proust's À l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleurs without first having read Du côté de chez Swan.

but I am finding it so entertaining!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
You know, I was going to warn you off, le nubian, but I think watching the Transporter in reverse order might be best. I didn't make it through the second one, but if I hadn't been comparing it to the first (which I enjoyed SO MUCH) I might have liked it better.
