Dream Girl ,'Bring On The Night'
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.
Wait until Owen is 13 and understands what "Pre-Code" means....
The only thing I'd say is, he shouldn't feel limited to the Widely Recognized Classics. It's Love I'm After is one of the underrated screwball comedies, in part because it turns elements that shouldn't go together (Leslie Howard, Bette Davis, and Olivia de Havilland in a comedy centering around a young woman's worship of a matinee idol) into one very funny movie.
Oh, he already knows Pre-code. Seriously. He understands that the Hays code was enforced after the 1930s.

There is a Dark Knight Rises Call Me Maybe parody (with original lyrics). And it's funny. and SPOILERY! (right at the start)
So don't watch if you don't want to be spoiled [link]

Joss doing Shakespeare gives me a happy.
"I do not like the thunder guy."
Well, that's...accurate.
"I need a bait and eyeliner."
"He killed 80 people in two days."
"We are cousins."
That's one way to skirt the adoption controversy!
Flavorwire's ten sexiest movies of all time.
Maybe the list should simply be longer, but there are a few notable exceptions there.
Magic Mike? Seriously?
I'm still waiting for DVD, but...is there a sex scene that's sexy, or is it the stripping scenes?
Of those that made the top ten that I've seen--Bound and...one other that I forgot...Out of Sight! Yes, I agree with those. But the plugins they use were killing my browser, plus dumb page to look at at work, so I didn't give it much time.
