One thing I enjoyed about Bewitched is occasionally Samantha would get tired of Darren, put on her cool black witch's dress, and head off with her mother to hang with the other witches. I was fascinated by the whole witch world.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So, that's what The Descendants is about. I didn't stick around long enough to find out how it turns out. I'll write the money off, no problem.
Man, it was between that or The Artist. Picked wrong.

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.
Bummer. The GF suggested going to see This Means War this weekend for our date night, but the reviews are pretty universally awful.

My reasons for seeing the movie cannot be affected by critical acclaim. This is all about me and my needs. I want Tom Hardy to have the best reviews ever, but this is not about him. I knew from the production stills and stolen snaps during filming that it was dubious at best.
Yet, T-Hard shoots people and kisses people and hits people. I just bought tickets for me and Polgara.

Please let me know how it goes, ita.
The trailer made it seem like a lot of fun, the reviews not so much. Since I don't have the same eye-candy tastes you do(and find the Witherspoon a neutral value) fun is the only angle of interest for me.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Also, you should come back down here for a visit sometime!
I keep trying to. I remember my 4 years at UNC very, very fondly. Maybe once Hubs's retirement is settled.

10 things IO9 doesn't think the Hunger Games movies can pull off. Needless to say, incredibly and inherently spoilery.
I think the big one is violence, and the second one is keeping Katniss sympathetic.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ha ha ha, that list is basically everything.

I was greatly relieved that Buttercup survived the series. Kill who you like, but save the cat .
