I kind of like Channing; he seems like a nice if somewhat dim guy in interviews and commentary tracks; he has zero shyness about taking his clothes off in movies, which I appreciate in men who are my physical type; he does good dance and passable fight scenes; and in getting his life story filmed—my mind reels at the thought of how many blowjobs it must have taken to get that greenlighted by a studio executive—he will provide me with Joe Manganiello doing a striptease in a fireman costume and going full (prosthetic) monty.
Plus bonus points for use of the word 'mosey'.

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
My first Channing movie was Step Up, and he's well enough suited for that role. So I have a bit of fondness for him, but a rather small bit.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
if you must see a Uwe Boll movie, make it In the Name of the King: a Dungeon Siege Tale. It's worth it just for Ron Perlman chewing the scenery and you get bonus Jason Statham.

My vote for must-see Uwe Boll movie is House of the Dead. It has a zombie rave, cuts to clips from the video game it's based on during action scenes, and stars Clint Howard, Tyron Leitso as a gun-toting underwear model who speaks with a fake British accent, and Jürgen Prochnow as a smuggler called—I shit you not—Captain Kirk.
Oh, I played hooky on a long lunch break today and went to see Chronicle. I enjoyed it immensely (thanks for the recommendation, ita!) and am hoping it's successful enough that they make a sequel.

Wasn't The Apple Uwe Boll? Cause for sheer uninterrupted camp...

BITE YOUR TONGUE. I will not have such blasphemous lies spoken about the world's greatest disco Nazi movie musical.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
How have I never heard of this film? It sounds like Springtime for Hitler, only real.

I would point you to an article about the film, but really, The Apple is best viewed unspoilt.

It's kind of Springtime for Hitler meets RHPS or Phantom of the Paradise.

Okay, done now. Sorry, got sucked down a rabbit hole for a while there. But seriously, this is the greatest movie of all time and everyone should watch it.
