Buffy ,'Showtime'
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 finally watched Fair Game via Netflix tonight.
Man, I'm so pissed off all over again. And horrified at the way the CIA just caved entirely, if that sequence in the movie is anywhere near the truth. They just hung one of their most valuable agents out to dry. Shameful.
Dennis Hartley has the best three to four word summary of a movie ever for Contagion (whitefonted): "Ahhh-CHOO!! Oh, crap." [link]
Top ten shirtless movies. Normally I'm pissed at paging through one through ten, but this one might have been too much on one page.
Tangled is funny.
It is pretty great. I watched a little bit this weekend and was reminded of this fact.
Heh. We just watched it last night, and I've been roaming all over the reviews at IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes because man, does it hold up over repeat viewings and I wanted to see what the professional movie watchers thought about it (answer: mostly very good things).
As someone who will have to watch every single movie the small person likes approximately nine thousand times, I'm so giddily happy to have one that so far, about 347 viewings in, looks like it will continue to be pleasurable for the next 8653 screenings.
Apparently this was one of the inspirations for the first sketches of the characters and their world. Though there's definitely a good dose of Maxfield Parrish in there too.
I adored Tangled, and so did Sara. But I'm expecting Brave to really blow me away.

Frying pans! Who knew, right?
I am so annoyed that none of the various licensed merchandising dollsaction figures come with a frying pan. It's nice enough, I guess, that the one we have comes with three woodland friends to braid Rapunzel's hair. It's extremely important that she comes with Pascal, who was her only friend for so many years. It's
vital
that she should come with a frying pan, the emblem of the superlative badassery she never knew she had.
