Keanu is allowed to talk in Bill and Ted movies. In anything else, he sounds like he's trying to not be in a Bill and Ted movie.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Keanu is also allowed to talk in Parenthood. So say I.

If you're within the yellow center of the "quality" bullseye you're aiming at? A+.
This image makes me think of The Archers logo, which is fairly appropriate when talking about A+ movies.
(A Matter of Life and Death was on the other day and I ended up watching half of it again. God, I love that movie).

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
A Matter of Life and Death was on the other day and I ended up watching half of it again.
God, what a fantastic film. I would give it A++++++ to infinity. It's my personal favourite among the Archers' films (although it has some stiff competition.)

Just saw a Green Lantern trailer during Big Bang Theory. I'm actually pretty excited to see it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Three big comic book movies coming out this summer: Green Lantern, Thor and Captain America.
Rank then according to your predicted box office.
I say...
Green Lantern (massive hit)
Thor (bit of a flop)
Captain America (profitable but not massive)
Your guesses?

Huh, I didn't know Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay for Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. No wonder it's so awesome.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I didn't know Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay for Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
If Wikipedia is accurate, David Seltzer also had a significant role in the writing.
Screenwriter David Seltzer conceived a gimmick exclusively for the film that had Wonka quoting numerous literary sources, such as Arthur O'Shaughnessy's Ode, Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, and William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. Seltzer also worked Slugworth (only mentioned as a rival candy maker in the book) into the plot as an actual character.
I'm gonna rank those superhero films:
Thor (massive hit)
Captain America (profitable but not massive)
Green Lantern (bit of a flop)
