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.
If you ever wondered why Peter Bogdonovich's first three movies were so good and the rest sucked, it's because Polly was his wife early in his career and had a tremendous impact on The Last Picture Show, What's Up Doc?, and Paper Moon.
After that she worked a lot with James Brooks, and can be credited with mentoring Wes Anderson and getting Matt Groening started in TV.
Another of Peetaand one of Katniss and Gale.
I think they all look way too old.
Peeta looks way too old, but Gale looks about right to me. Isn't he older than the other two? Katniss looks like a 16 yo to me. Isn't she 16? Also, did they just give up on making Peeta blond?
I'd really prefer them to look not so much alike. Gale is supposed to look like Katniss and Peeta like Prim.
What ita ! said. (Wow, that was my first time typing that. Interesting.)
Random: At the movies last weekend, I was really glad to learn why Matt Damon looked so bad on 30 Rock last season -- it was for the bird flu (or whatever) movie. I really thought he had just lost it.
I went to see HP7.2 again last night, and sat through what must have been 8 trailers. Of course, now I don't remember most of them, except a steampunky kids movie with a great-looking cast, called Hugo, and some incredibly awful looking thing called Immortals--made by the guys who made 300, and with no recognizeable storyline that I could identify.

Huh. He lost weight for it? I hope he did it more carefully than he did for Black Hawk Down. I remember reading that he suffered permanent kidney damage.
Oh, no, sorry -- gained weight. Lost IT. His mojo -- he just looks like some dad with a bad haircut.
