Laga, you need to see the Elmo/Kevin Clash documentary. It's currently making the festival circuit, but I'm sure it'll get distribution in theaters or TV soon.
PBS in the winter.
I'm fairly certain I said no interruptions.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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

It's going to be part of the Independent Lens series, so, uh, check your local listings....

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I had seen all the Marx Brothers' films on TV or video by the time I finally went to theatrical showing. They were edited to allow time for the laughs, so they work so much better with a full house.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I still remember going to see the first LotR movies late in the run. I went into an almost empty theater and spotted a row of teenage girls who, on a second look, were wearing elf ears.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
The preview showing of Serenity I saw definitely gave me a "my people!" vibe.
That's a special case, though. Not quite the same vibe as the noir festival, I suspect.
I was also glad I saw the opening midnight showing of Dark Knight. It was worth the sleep dep.

Compassionately intolerant
A friend of mine once cracked the crowd up at a theater showing Legend. When Mila walks through the gauzy-floaty things wafting through the forest, he yelled out, "She's innocent already, we GET it!"
He also name checked the Rolling Rock fairy.
He was much more amusing than the movie.

HP: Prisoner of Azkaban definitely brought out the 'my people' thing. Lot's of costumes and in-depth conversations about canon.

I've never been to a midnight show at Arclight but I suspect that would be intense. I did see a Friday night show of Dawn of the Dead in the Cinerama Dome that was probably the most fun I've ever had at a horror movie.
