I've been picturing Željko Ivanek as Snow since I read the books.
Yes! Exactly.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Maybe I'm drunk, but I'm a half hour into the Mechanic (with Statham and Frost) and damn, I may be mistaken, but that's one of the more interesting premises I've seen in awhile. Maybe the movie will disappoint, but the idea that a guy forced to kill his mentor seeks redemption in redeeming his mentor's disappointing son . . . I like. It's a different sort of atonement. Not "ooh, I feel so guilty for killing the wrong guy" or that the victim was innocent, or that that the father/son dynamic was just misunderstanding and the were both really great people. They're all shady. I just, I like that idea of atonement with the son. "You had to die, it was just, but I'll fix that one failing in your life, because I liked you."
I'll leave my little fantasy world and watch the damned movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
First pic of Hardy as Bane? Apparently there was quite a breadcrumb path of viral marketing to follow to get there. Thank dog for other geeks.

I appreciate that picture.

Here's an article that explains the breadcrumbs in more detail. I'm loving the spectral analysis!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Pirates is getting terrible reviews. It apparently commits the sin of being pretty boring.
