Hmm. I don't know, as it's not really the kind of thing I notice. I don't remember anything standing out to me. The guy who isn't Cusack is cute, though.
I seen you without your clothes on before. Never thought I'd see you naked.

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.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not saying I personally feel this way about Hawkeye: [link] just...it's persuasive, you know?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Pretty glaring omission in there regarding the super skillsets on offer in the Avengers, I'd say.

Hey. New board.
Hanna was a pretty awesome movie.

Yeah, it's a damned shame none of the rest of them have distance weapons...

I suspect Mr. 98-Pound-Weakling Who Kept Volunteering To Enlist Despite Multiple Rejections might not be the first to recommend cutting a highly-motivated comrade-in-arms who doesn't quite measure up to everyone else physically.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Consuela linked to this Florence + the Machine music video to Snow White and the Huntsman in her LJ: [link]
1) The movie looks fantastic.
2) The music video trailer... basically gives away the entire movie?
3) They totally want me to ship Snow White with the Huntsman, right? I mean, prince, what prince?

Or, maybe Steve considers himself proof that it does take something more to fight that fight safely. It's not like he contributed while he was still 98 lbs soaking wet. Is Clint signed up for any experiments?
How did I forget there was a prince in Snow White? The king's nice wife pricks her finger doing embroider--blood, cotton, hoop, baby wish, and then she dies, and he marries again, and the new one's kinda stank and when her mirror tells her she's not the most beautiful one anymore she sends the Huntsman to kill Snow White, but he brings back a deer's heart instead...and then I got nothing.
My god, my memory of fairy tales is for crap, given how much I used to read them. Maybe I read too many, and my mind is occupied with the Goose Girl and stuff Disney hasn't enshrined yet.
I like the idea and the artistic direction I've seen of Snow White so far, and my Chris Hemsworth crush is *way* bigger than I'd have predicted, so maybe I will go look, even though I think Charlize should kill everyone she finds threatening to her beauty. She's so pretty...

And he warns Snow White to run away, so she runs into the forest and finds the Dwarfs' house, where they take her in as free household help. The mirror tells the Queen Snow is still alive (one supposes the Huntsman made tracks), and disguising herself as a beggar woman, she goes to the house and offers Snow a poisoned apple.
Because of narrative necessity, Snow doesn't die from the poison, but falls into a coma. The Dwarfs build her a glass coffin, and the Prince, wandering by, sees the coffin and falls in love (ew?). He kisses her awake, they marry, ta-da.
I'm not sure how the Queen is defeated: it might be one of the "she flew into a rage so great she burned herself up" moments.

Ha! My Snow White has no dwarves. I can't believe that.
