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 hated Lost In Translation so much I don't really remember much about it. I haven't seen any of the other movies discussed.
Many of the trailers we saw were absolutely appalling. If you judge a movie by the previews it keeps, thumbs down.
However, Harold & Kumar 3 not only looked great, but I'll happily watch in 3D.
(I thought she was meant to be a thinly disguised Cameron Diaz.)
That's exactly who she was playing, according to rumor.
She was also in all the Scary Movies (are those stoner comedies? I guess so, to some extent.)
Marlon Wayans's character was rarely seen without a lit blunt throughout the first two, so I'm assuming yes.
Anna Faris is married to Chris Pratt (Andy from Parks & Rec). Adorable! (I've never actually seen her in a movie so that's all I got.)
I love Anna Faris - she's completely fearless and it makes her a fantastic comic actress.
DH and I saw Ides of March yesterday, and I left the theatre feeling very confused. It wasn't a bad movie, but I have no idea why it was made. If Primary Colors and The Social Network had a baby, this would be the offspring. Excellent performances all around, and a few really good scenes, but...why tell this story?
There's a lot of ass in this movie. I guess they were very much into exploiting their R rating.
Also, Anna's stunt double has a very poor wig. That was pretty horrible.
What? No love for Movies from msbelle?
I am sadly disappointed.
I can't believe they remade Footloose. I can't believe I've sat near some people in the theatre that didn't work out the trailer was for a Footloose remake until the movie's title came up.
The lead, whoever he is, is no Kevin Bacon. But the guy who plays his friend is spot on. It just seems like a really strange story to tell now, although the dancing looks amazing.
Couldn't Zac Efron have played the part?
I am not discussing this. I am pisst off that they are remaking this film. I cannot be objective about it.
Why don't you remake "16 Candles" for crying out loud? And "Breakfast Club" and completely ruin my teen years.
The lead, whoever he is, is no Kevin Bacon.
He's a dancer, is what. And just adding to the number of famous people from Massachusetts. Seriously, is everyone funny from Mass.??
