Oz ,'First Date'
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.
It sounds like it might be a version that won't make me run screaming from the theater.
Definitely not. I had a few quibbles with stuff near the end, but they really did a good job with it. Keep in mind, I just spent the last two weeks listening to a Librivox recording as a reread so everything was fresh in my mind to compare it with.

Now I want to re-read Jane Eyre. It has been a while...
Diane Lane has been cast as Martha Kent in the new Superman movie.
#1 All-Time TV credit sequence? Cowboy Bebop!
Yes! This!
Oh! The credits for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World are fun times. Also the 8-bit Universal logo.
LOVED!
Touch of Evil. Best. Credits. Evah! Much as I love the restored version, the one with Henry Mancini's score strikes me as more iconic.
Yes! This!

Our opinions validate each other so we must be right!

Concur.
Famous Objects from Classic Movies.
Guess movie titles using pictures of famous objects from them as clues.
It's fun! I got 33 before I finally missed one. Some are really easy, and some are clever in what object they pick. And you play Wheel of Fortune style, so you can get a little help.
Title sequences I love:
Thank-You for Smoking
Almost Famous
& it's a TV show but Entourage.
Great suggestions all round. Thanks!
I usually show the Touch of Evil credits when I do Film Noir, but it might actually make more sense to show them in this context, especially as I also use The Player.
Forget Zombies vs. Robots. Here comes The Kitchen Sink:
Well, the plot follows a bunch of high school kids who are attacked by zombies. While they're on the run, the zombies are then attacked by vampires. Before aliens land on Earth, and everybody has to band together to fight them.
WITH ROBOTS?
