A friend linked this to me: Jean Dujardin's (the lead guy from The Artist) Villain Auditions: [link]
Oh my God, that was hilarious. That guy's a hell of a sport.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Vanity Fair has a marvelous discussion of Diner and how revolutionary it was. Funny, the article is all about Diner as a bromance, but you know, women like it too. ::side-eye::

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Yeah. I think I'm officially done giving two craps about anything he says or does at this point.
Then I tried to watch Phantom Menace with Dylan a couple of weeks ago (he asked to see a Star Wars movie he hadn't seen before). I thought there was no way it could be as bad as I remembered. Surely I had just built up an exaggerated and unfair caricature based on years of fannish mocking? It was probably just an average juvenile action movie, right?
I tried watching it a few years ago and after 30 minutes I ended up just fast-forwarding to the lightsaber fights.

smonster, that first actual video clip part? Kinda made me want to work out, too. (Largely because it looked REALLY hot and I'd like to be able to do that.)
I usually find Tom Hardy aesthetically pleasing and engaging as an actor, but with the possible exception of that clip, I don't find him RAAR! GIMME!

I usually find Hardy somewhat hot when he has hair, but close-shaven exposes that tilted egg dome that is somehow very dashing on Patrick Stewart yet not at all on him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My god, if Project X had come out before Chronicle, I might have missed out on a good movie, because the mere idea of pissy teens and found footage might give associations I couldn't shake. That movie looks *so* irritating. I can only hope it ends in a fireball, but what do you do for the preceding 90 minutes?
Anyone here normally use fandango for movie tickets? I find myself suddenly (since last Sat) slung over to their site for AMC tickets (although, last week, none of the purchases actually went through....hmmm....). And I'm not receptive to the change.

Ha, ita!, I was just thinking that I can't think of a movie I want to see less than Project X.

I just sort of recognized that other people found Thomas Hardy hot. Then I saw him in Tinker, Tailor. Now I totally see the hot.

Having seen Clash of the Titans, OMG, no--Project X is way way higher on the must-avoid list than anything in that franchise.
