The Sucker Punch soundtrack is pretty good.
That it is. Given that and the fact that I love the TRAILERS for his movies more than the movies themselves, I think maybe Zack Snyder should just direct awesome music videos.

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, that definitely was a Whit Stillman film.

My favorite part was when the Romans were brought down by barbarian invaders .

Because books.
Sucker Punch was vile. I haven't been that angry at a movie in a long time.
I just got back from The Hunger Games, though, so now I need to go back and read all the juicy spoilerfont.

Well, this isn't good. Unless it is.
Exclusive: Gary Ross Leaves 'The Hunger Games' Franchise, Won't Direct 'Catching Fire' Sequel.
I hope they find a good replacement. Damn.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, that's the sort of thing that could go in any direction. It's a big enough success that I hope they could attract and afford a good talent, and the producers seem to have a sensible approach to it all, so I hope that continues.

Less shakey-cam one hopes.

Gary Ross Has Not Withdrawn From ‘Hunger Games 2′.
Or not. ALL SHAKY-CAM ALL THE TIME.
(Seriously, I had no issues with it.)

Because books.
The shaky cam did bother me, although I sort of understood what he was going for with it (I think). What also bothered me -- and he's not the only director to do it -- is the quick pans that make the shot blurry until they stop. There was one when they were inside the Games control room, and it made me a little nauseated.
