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.
Rewatching Thor while stuck in the airport. It is actually canon that Thor calls Agent Coulson "son of Coul." This amuses me to no end.

Yesss.
I just watched a bunch of
Valentine's Day.
If I'd, for some reason, had to watch in the theatre, there would have been stabbings and maybe torchings. It was exactly the sort of non-distraction I wanted, but the idea of paying actual discrete money for it? Oh, NSM. So very NSM. It wasn't a rom com, because there was no com. Just lots of people, and variously uninspiring levels of vrom.
A couple things: How did Jennifer Garner's character get back to wherever she got back to in time? She flew to San Fran, and then was in her boyfriend's restaurant in time to concoct a plan to be his server?
Yeah, Matt, you were very right. The gay subplot was all "Yay! Team us!" without actually any of the com or the rom. Lots of hot, though, and well it if weren't a dumb movie for fanfic, you'd have to do all the heavy lifting yourself.
Also, the goofs in the credit sequence were the lamest I've ever seen. I suspect half an hour of Community gets more funny improv/goof material. Fuck, SPN probably tops them with just an ep. And, way to be smug, Julia. Way way. God, I dislike her personas.
Also, Cumberbatch is THE VILLAIN. This is going to be so much fun.
Of course he's the villain--he has a British accent. All movie villains have British accents. Except for LotR and Harry Potter.
All Hollywood villains have British accents.
Unless they have German or Russian accents.
But usually there's a British accent lurking beneath the adopted Russian or German accent. It sometimes seems a Brit or UK actor can't get a job in Hollywood unless it's as a villain, or he has a workable American accent.
After 200 years, we're still bitter.
