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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

PS: Ernest Borgnine is still alive?

billytea, that is a totally awesome movie. I have periodic online watching parties with my friends.

And, hell yes, Ernest Borgnine is still alive. And kicking: [link] (NSFW speech around the 2:30 mark.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, wow. I'm just watching RED for the first time. Is this a phenomenal cast or what? (Yeah, I know, this is news, huh?)

Seriously. One of my favorite movies of last year.

PS: Ernest Borgnine is still alive?

That was *exactly* my reaction!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

watching Crash (1994) it's weird.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

1994 is the car sex one, right? Not the racism one? (I'm too lazy to Google.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

1994 is the car sex one, right?

Yeah. Based on the Ballard book.

eta: 1996, actually.

Honestly, I kept thinking, "but wait, he's dead! Isn't he?" I anticipate a bunch of parts for him from casting directors who had the same reaction, who'd been thinking, "Boy, Borgnine would be perfect here."

Yes the car sex one. What was the point of that?

People like to get their freak on in ways that other people don't? James Spader is a freak who likes to get his freak on?

What's the bar you're setting for a movie to have "a point"?
