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.
You know, I've never seen Scaramouche, although I've read it a couple of times.
It has Stewart Granger at his most handsome and dashing.
We just put on the Nicholas Cage "The Sorcerer's Apprentice." The first five minutes are an infodump in which they use the phrase "Prime Merlinean."
Isn't it a great phrase? I enjoyed the movie; it was fun.
Uh. Possibly that was not my reaction.
When I saw from the previews that it was Nicholas Cage and that nerdy guy from Undeclared using the name of a beloved Disney classic for marketing value, I figured it would be best to pass on it for the sakes of fellow moviegoers who might be sitting next to me when the rage blackout hit.
I like the nerdy guy. And Alfred Molina. Nicholas Cage must owe a lot of taxes.
And the scriptwriters. The scriptwriters must owe the government. Or someone.
Oh, no, not the actual mop scene from Fantasia. Couldn't they have left that alone?
I quite enjoyed the movie, and I loved that they worked in the mop bit.
