Snyder ,'Empty Places'
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.
FTR, Matt, it wasn't me - I'm totally down with the magical disappearing pants. I think that was Juliebird with her logical pants.
If Hemsworth is 6'3", Renner, RDJ, and Ruffalo are probably no taller than I am (5'8", or 172.7 cm). Possibly shorter. Hard to tell from a candid photo where people aren't standing up straight and lined up next to each other.
When hotties start looking like tinies.
Tiny hot men! Collect the whole set!
Renner, Downy et al aren't SMALL. They're COMPACT.

10 Toy-Based Movies Ideas That Would Blow Away Battleship
Movie Idea: Connect Four
Tagline: Fear, diagonally.
Elevator pitch: Milton Bradley's abstract strategy game transforms into an apocalyptic race against time in this sci-fi blockbuster, starring Ryan Gosling and Rihanna as technocratic dictators (and ex-lovers) locked in a perpetual war of mutually assured destruction and reconstruction on the planet Ouroboros. After erecting, then annihilating, exquisite tech-noir skyscrapers and impossibly high vertical farms using strategically placed death discs, it is left to a brilliant but raunchy elderly mathematician (Betty White) to unite the ex-lovers with a perfect-play strategy inspired by James D. Allen and Victor Allis, who solved the game on Earth in the late '80s. Catchphrases from the game's TV commercial -- "Here, diagonally" and "Pretty sneaky, sis" -- are incorporated into the film's final moments, when the formerly self-centered Gosling asks the formerly obstinate Rihanna how she would like to be kissed.
Connect Four: The Movie trailer. Rated R for violence, violence, more violence, some intense stuff, and maybe some more violence.
Connect Four trailer. Somehow this one is about throwing plates.
Connect Four Million. Lost spoilers!
I poked around the Hasbro site the other day, and made a list of the potential next blockbuster movies, and I can't even find it.
Still, I think Jenga will be breath-holding, spine-tingling, on-the-edge-of-your-seat exciting. I can't wait to see it in 3D.
There was an episode of Monk where a character was obsessed with Jenga. Then at the final showdown in a lumber yard, he used his Jenga skills to knock out the criminal.
Tonight is the last night I can see The Cabin in the Woods at the theater, but it's a 10:00 showing and I'm not sure I can comfortably sit in a theater chair for a couple of hours. Darn it, I wanted to see it again before it ran its course!
