rescue fully grown and consenting Katie Holmes

still the best(and only) RPF i've ever read.

I don't have the visceral Cruise hate a lot of people do, plus the movie's got interesting people in supporting roles (Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner) so I'll probably end up catching it at some point. Plus, I'm kind of stoked to see what Brad Bird would be like as a live-action movie director.

I'll probably go see SH2 at some point as well, but I REALLY don't like Guy Ritchie's style. I wanted to bash someone's head in every time he did one of those gratuitous slo-mo shots in the first movie. The second movie looks like it's gonna be full of those Ritchie-quirks I hate as well. Bah.

Even the sight of RDJ in drag having said drag torn off him and doing the rest of the action scene half naked with smudged lipstick could not redeem the steaming pile of crap that was that movie.

At least MI4 had the decency to have a plot. Seriously, we're two Sherlock Homles movies in and apparently nobody on the writing team has been made aware that their title character is generally known for solving mysteries.

I had decided that if Paula Patton was a decent action hero in her clips, I might give it a Netflix go, but the one fight scene I saw was laughable. I'll see Pegg in other stuff.

OK, I was just clicking on links on IMDb and... they are doing a Bourne movie without Jason Bourne? I don't even know how that will work!

It's got good people attached to it (including Joan Allen returning as Pam Landy! LOVED her) but the whole thing just strikes me as bizarre.

I guess they might go with the organisations that produced/chased him? Is whatsisname still doing action roles?

I watched the making of of The Adjustment Bureau, and they talked about all the training Blunt went through in order to be halfway convincing as a dancer. I don't know shit about dancing, so I can't gauge her success, and they did use doubles for some of it, but she said it was gruelling. Am I just that clueless or did they train her to be a better dancer than the fight choreographers made a fighter of Paula Patton?

(Obviously one of these is my bugaboo, and the other I am innocent as all hell...)

So I ordered a bunch of DVDs for my class from a Korean vendor on eBay. I've done this before and had nothing but good experiences so far, and it's the only way to get some pretty rare films at a reasonable price.

Unfortunately this time I ordered "Zero de Conduite" and received "Germany Year Zero". Now the seller is insisting that they are the same movie. Oh dear....

Oh, man, that was so much fun.

It was very entertaining!

Did we know that Roland Emmerich is filming a version of Isaac Asimov's Foundation? Saddest news I've heard all day.
